Maes: reports say appeal court reduces sentence to one year

The accounts also describe reduced sentences for other defendants. They place the ruling between the evening of 5 November and the early hours of 6 November, differing on the exact date.

Médias24 expects release because of time already served. That expectation is not an observation of his leaving prison: the sources consulted do not establish his actual release.
