American Actor Aude Freed from Pakistani Prison

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - An American actor accused of drug smuggling returned home to Los Angeles on Sunday after spending nearly three years in a Pakistani prison before a judge commuted his sentence.

Erik Aude, 24, who had roles in the film "Dude, Where's My Car?" and the WB Network television series "7th Heaven," met his mother, Sherry Aude, manager Richard Murphy and others at Los Angeles Airport.

"It's such a relief to be home," the actor said in a brief telephone interview from the airport.

Aude was arrested at the Islamabad airport in February 2002 after officials reported finding nearly 8 pounds of opium hidden in the lining of a suitcase he was carrying.
