Former US intelligence analyst Chelsea Manning has been released from prison, despite refusing to testify before an investigation into Wikileaks.
Manning, 31, was held for 62 days after a Virginia judge ordered her taken into custody in March.
However, she will have to appear again before a grand jury on 16 May.
Manning was found guilty in 2013 of charges including espionage for leaking secret military files to Wikileaks, but her sentence was later commuted.
She has refused to answer further questions about Wikileaks from investigators because she says she has already presented her testimony during her 2013 trial.
