The Iraqi man who threw his shoes at former U.S. President George W. Bush last year, Muntadhar al-Zaidi, was freed from jail Tuesday, his brother told CNN. Udey al-Zaidi confirmed the release of his brother, who was serving a one-year sentence.

Under Iraqi law, a "conditional discharge" allows for the release of a prisoner after he serves three-quarters of his sentence, on good behavior.

Al-Zaidi has been in jail since the December 14 news conference, during which he threw his shoes at Bush and called him a "dog" -- two of the worst insults in the Middle East.
