"I want to leave this country," nuclear whistleblower says.

Mordechai Vanunu, the man who spent 18 years in jail after being convicted of treason and espionage was released from Ayalon Prison in Ramle Sunday after serving a further three months.

Upon his release, Vanunu stated that he held no nuclear secrets and maintained that the Israeli government should leave him alone.

"I am not a scientist...my knowledge is not of nuclear weapons," said Vanunu.

"I want to be free and leave this country," he added.

Vanunu was returned to jail in May after being found guilty of violating restrictions imposed upon him when he was released from prison.
