Colombia's former President Álvaro Uribe has been freed from house arrest following a court ruling.

"Thank God," Mr Uribe said in a tweet after the news was announced on Saturday.

Mr Uribe, who led the country from 2002 to 2010, is being investigated for witness tampering. He denies the charges against him.

Colombia's Supreme Court ordered his detention under house arrest in August this year.

1. You can use Á to get the Á to display in the thread title.

Note: If you edit a post with an html entity in the title, you have to re-enter it (e.g. Á) for the character to still show (e.g. Á). If you preview your post, hit the back button before posting - or you'll have to re-enter the html entities.

I really wish they would fix it so that accented characters would work in titles here.

2. Thank you for sharing the link. Have saved it for future reference, for sure. Much appreciated.

Regarding your second comment, I can almost swear the system worked perfectly before the last "fix" here.

A lot has changed we took for granted earlier.

Thanks, again.
