Michal Herba has been released from jail[/caption]He was jailed for 16-years in 2019 but his sentence was reduced to only five-years on appeal before he was quietly released 18-months-ago on good behaviour, MailOnline reports.
His brother Lukasz is still behind bars and he is expected to be released early next year.
Michal is now a truck driver living in Szczecin, Poland with his mother in an apartment.
The model, 25, was snatched by a sex trafficking gang and held captive for six days in a remote Italian farmhouse.
Masked men kidnapped her after luring her to Milan with promises of a lucrative photoshoot which turned out to be fake.
She told police she was then drugged and stuffed inside a bag before being auctioned on the dark web for £250,000.
Lukasz Herba was convicted on June 11, 2018, of kidnapping the model after drugging her when she showed up in Milan for a modelling job.
The BBC has even announced plans for a new drama series based on Chloe’s horrific ordeal.
The show, currently being called Kidnapped, will tell Ayling’s story based on her own book about the event.
It will also draw on detailed research, extensive interviews and documented legal proceedings.
