By Radu Marinas BUCHAREST (Reuters) - Romanian hacker "Guccifer", famous for breaking into emails of former U.S. president George W. Bush's family and entertainment figures, appealed against his arrest on Friday but the chances for his release appeared slim. A source in the prosecutor's office confirmed that masked police had netted Marcel Lazar Lehel, known by the aliases "Guccifer" and "Small Fume", on Wednesday and said he was currently being detained for 29 days in Bucharest pending a criminal investigation. "(Guccifer) was assigned a criminal defense lawyer," the prosecutor's office source said, adding his appeal against his detention would be considered by the court on Monday or Tuesday. Asked by Reuters whether it had received an extradition request for Guccifer from the United States, Romania's justice ministry said it had no information on the matter.
