Former Mexican world champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. was released Sunday from a prison in northern Mexico, where he was sent in August after being deported from the United States.
The boxer, son of legendary Mexican boxer Julio Cesar Chavez, is awaiting trial on charges of cartel involvement and illegal arms trafficking to Mexico.
Chavez was released after a judge in the northern Mexican city of Hermosillo ruled that he would not have to remain in custody while awaiting trial, but that he was prohibited from leaving Mexico, a federal agent told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak publicly. The judge also set a three-month deadline for further investigation into the case.
