extradition
By The Conversation Holly Cullen, The University of Western AustraliaToday Julian Assange walked out of the Federal Court Building in Saipan, North Marianas Islands, a free man. He pleaded guilty to one count of breaching the US Espionage Act. With the court accepting his 62 months already spent in Belmarsh Prison as a sufficient sentence, he has no more case to answer, and no more sentence to serve. However, this case leaves behind it a trail of unanswered legal questions and unresolved controversies. In particular, there are questions of fundamental human rights that can only now be addresse...

A l'issue d'une courte audience, il a esquissé un petit sourire. De soulagement sans doute. Et d'amertume aussi. Après quatorze ans de combats judiciaires épiques et cinq ans d'incarcération dans une prison de haute sécurité aux Royaume-Uni, Julian Assange, 52 ans, a donc recouvré ce mercredi la liberté. Sa remise en liberté est le fruit d'un accord trouvé avec la justice américaine : le fondateur de Wikileaks a dû plaider coupable d'avoir obtenu et publié des secrets militaires américains. La fin d'une longue saga juridique qui a soulevé des questions controversées sur la liberté de la presse...

Washington (AFP) - After more than thirteen years in England, including five years spent in prison, Julian Assange pleaded guilty in the Northern Mariana Islands, a far-flung US territory in the Pacific, and walked out of court a free man. The timing -- and location -- of the plea deal seemed to have come out of nowhere. But an agreement between Assange, an Australian citizen who leaked US national security secrets in 2010, and American prosecutors had been moving forward in earnest for months. When did discussions around a deal start?Assange leaked the documents and was investigated during th...

A plane believed to be carrying Julian Assange landed in Bangkok on Tuesday. The WikiLeaks founder is on the way to enter a plea deal with the US government that will free him and resolve a legal case that spanned years and continents over the publication of a trove of classified documents. It is unclear if the plane is only refuelling or how Assange will continue travelling to the Northern Mariana Islands, a US commonwealth in the Western Pacific, where he will appear in court Wednesday morning Saipan time. He’s expected to plead guilty to an Espionage Act charge of conspiring to unlawfully o...

It's possible that Julian Assange, the founder of WikiLeaks, could be faced with extradition to the United States today on spying charges if London's High Court believes that US officials will give him due process. Assange, 52, is facing 17 espionage charges and one charge of computer misuse in the US after he published a trove of classified documents in 2010 related to the US military's conduct during the Afghanistan and Iraq wars. If charged in the US, Assange faces up to 175 years in prison if he's convicted but American authorities say that his sentence could be shorter. London's High Cour...

London (AFP) - Britain's High Court on Wednesday finished hearing two days of arguments over whether to grant WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange a fresh appeal against his extradition to the United States to face espionage charges. Two senior judges heard evidence from his lawyers and those representing Washington, and opted against making an immediate decision on what is likely Assange's final UK bid to block extradition. "We will reserve our decision," judge Victoria Sharp said as the latest legal proceedings in the long-running case concluded. It is unclear when she and judge Jeremy Johnson w...

London (AFP) - WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange was absent from a London court due to illness Tuesday, as his lawyers launched a likely last bid to appeal against his extradition to the United States to face espionage charges. Washington indicted the Australian multiple times between 2018 and 2020 over WikiLeaks' publication of secret military and diplomatic files on the US-led wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. On the first of two days of evidence before two High Court judges, the 52-year-old's leading lawyer said previous rulings contained "errors of law" and that the US charges against him are "...
