French politician Dominique Strauss-Kahn was let out of New York's Rikers Island jail on Friday, a day after a Manhattan court granted the accused sex offender a release on $1 million bail and a $5 million bond.

Under the terms New York Supreme Court Justice Michael J. Obus laid out in his ruling Thursday, Strauss-Kahn will be allowed to stay at the New York home of his daughter Camille on house arrest; he will wear an electronic monitoring device and an armed guard will be on hand at all times.

Prosecutors arguing against Strauss-Kahn’s release cited the case of Roman Polanski, the Oscar-winning director who jumped his bail in 1977.

French politician Dominique Strass-Kahn has resigned from his position as the head of the International Monetary Fund, the organization that oversees global financial policy.

The news came as authorities released his mug shot amid a sex scandal.

The 62-year-old Strass-Kahn, who’s accused of sexually assaulting a maid at the Sofitel hotel last week, is currently in custody at New York's Rikers Island.
