During the hearing, which was held earlier this month, the WikiLeaks founder’s attorneys argued that Swedish prosecutors had made a mistake by filing an extradition request, while the Swedish government pointed out that it had requested Assange’s extradition only after it had unsuccessfully tried to question him several times.
Assange and his supporters claim that the case against him is full of irregularities and some even believe that it is a U.S. conspiracy aimed at putting the 39-year-old Australian behind bars and discrediting him for releasing confidential U.S. cables.
Lawyers of the two Swedish women, who Assange allegedly sexually harassed during his stay in Sweden in August 2010, and the Swedish authorities have denied the allegations.
One of the women has accused him of ignoring her request to use a condom and the other one says Assange had sex with her while she was asleep, without using a condom.
It was expexted that Assange will lose his extradition hearing because ,as always, British governments continue to lackey up to the US government who have more atrocities under their lid than Gadaffi and Mubarak. The US was pressuring the UK authorities to keep him locked up until they could manufacture something to extradite him to the US. Remember, this man has not been charged with any crime.
The British justice system has been an enemy of the British people since 1066 so what hope for an Australian guy exposing ugly truths on world leaders wish would go away?
It’s about time for Assange and Wikileaks to take off the gloves and start hitting back at the world
Elites by making public their dirty linen. Chaos brings change, and change is good.
