Actor Johnny Depp has come to the defence of Roman Polanski, who is facing extradition to the US on child sex charges, insisting the director is not a predator.
 
The Oscar-winning filmmaker pleaded guilty to a charge of unlawful sex with a 13-year-old girl in 1977, but fled the States before his sentence could be passed. He was arrested in Zurich last year and placed under house arrest in Switzerland. Last month, a Los Angeles judge ruled he must return to the US to face sentencing.
 
But Depp, who collaborated with the 76-year-old on the 1999 thriller "The Ninth Gate", insists prosecutors should take Polanski's current home life into consideration and let the 32-year-old charges go, reported a magazine.
 
"Roman is not a predator. He is 75 or 76 years old. He has got two beautiful kids, he has got a wife that he has been with for a long, long time. He is not out on the street," said Depp.
