Byron Sonne, the last person remaining behind bars in connection to the G20 summit, was released on bail Wednesday.

The 38-year-old Toronto computer security expert was released on a $250,000 recognizance, 10 months after being charged with possession of an explosive substance.

Sonne was arrested days before Toronto hosted the G20 summit last June, after photos of the security fence and surveillance cameras around the summit site were posted on his Twitter account.

After being released on Wednesday, Sonne said he was going to spend time with his parents.

"I have been blessed by a great deal of support, a staggering level of support, from all over the world, most noticeably from Toronto," he told reporters after his release.

Sonne's parents will act as his sureties, and will be required to remain in their home except to meet with his lawyer or for medical emergencies.

Sonne must also stay 500 metres away from his wife, from whom he is separated, and away from their home.

Sonne also cannot possess weapons or explosives and must surrender his passport. He also faces restrictions on Internet use and cannot have wireless devices such as a BlackBerry.

Several of Sonne's supports were in the courtroom on Wednesday, including one man who wore a patch that read "Free Byron."

Sonne would not comment on whether he was being made a "scapegoat" for the G20 protests, saying it was a topic he would discuss "at a later time."

Sonne also thanked the officers stationed at the Maplehurst Correctional Institution, where he was held, saying they were proof that there "was still humanity and decency behind bars."
