Celebrity heiress Paris Hilton has been released from jail after serving just three full days of her sentence.

But the 26-year-old will be kept under house arrest and must wear an electronic tag for another 40 days.

The decision was made as a result of a medical problem, but officials refused to give details of the condition.

When Hilton was originally sentenced to 45 days for violating probation on a drink-driving conviction, she was told there was no prospect of early release.

But the sentence was later cut in half after being given credit for good behaviour.

Hilton has now been "reassigned" to house arrest 20 days before her revised jail term was due to end.
