I'm even shocked. What can I tell you? It could take months, it's horrible, and I'm not even with her."<br/> <br />Cassez was arrested in 2005 with her former boyfriend who was accused of heading the Zodiacs kidnap gang.<br/> <br />Police forced her to play a kidnapper in a staged re-enactment of officers freeing abductees, which was later aired on national tv as the real thing.<br/> <br />Despite rejecting her freedom bid, the judges have agreed her rights were violated, which could mean a retrial.<br/> <br />But others in Mexico say she should stay behind bars regardless of such violations.<br/> <br />SOUNDBITE: OCTAVIO FLORES, PROTESTER, SAYING (Spanish):<br/> <br />"I believe that justice was finally served. I believe the woman is guilty but they violated her human rights from the start and that is why it's controversial."<br/> <br />The case has sparked a diplomatic row with France which has condemned Mexico's justice system.<br/> <br />Cassez was convicted in a hearing behind closed doors and without a jury.<br/> <br />Paul Chapman, Reuters
