(CNN) -- A man indicted in the Netherlands on charges of murder and manslaughter in the disappearance of Alabama teenager Natalee Holloway in Aruba was released Tuesday, according to his attorney's office.

Guido Wever, 19, was scheduled to appear in court Tuesday in the Netherlands, an assistant to attorney Gerard Spong said, but an agreement reached between Spong and Aruban prosecutor Karen Janssen made that hearing unnecessary.

Under the conditions of the deal, Wever remains a suspect in Holloway's disappearance.

I don't normally post this sort of thing as its not really my bag, however I've made an exception here to get my two cents worth in about visiting foreign countries.

Just because you're an American doesn't mean you lead a charmed life. The rules and regs in foreign countries are very different. Attractive young American women should never ever, be alone with the natives at any time. Women as a rule don't seem to sense danger until the train runs right over them. And finally the investigation into this young woman's disappearance has been FUBAR from the start. Of course the local cops might we working under pressure, not to find out what really happened.
