Fischer was released from detention in Japan on Thursday, allowing him to avoid deportation to the United States and head for Iceland, which has granted him citizenship. He could face prison and fines in the United States, where he is wanted for violating sanctions against the former Yugoslavia by playing a chess match there in 1992. REUTERS/Yuriko Nakao
