HO CHI MINH CITY, Vietnam, Aug. 29 (UPI) --

The lawyer for convicted pedophile Gary Glitter said the former rocker could be released from his Vietnam jail cell as early as this weekend.
.
Sunday is Vietnam's annual Independence Day holiday, when the government traditionally releases prisoners early as part of celebrations.
.
Glitter's lawyer, Le Than Khin, said the former pop star has completed about half of his sentence for a conviction of molesting two girls, ages 11 and 12, the British newspaper The Sun reported Wednesday.
.
"I am hopeful" about Glitter's possible release," Khin said. "I believe punishment has now been sufficient. My client has expressed a wish to return home."
.
If the glam rock star returns to Britain, he could face charges under sex tourism laws, the newspaper said.
