.ON MAY 20TH the High Judge in Greater london concluded that Julian Assange must be approved a hearing on a brand new charm against his extradition to America. Mr Assange, the founder of WikiLeaks and an Australian national, has actually been actually defending greater than 13 years to continue to be in Britain.

Mr Assange's supporters contact him a "political captive" as well as say (without proof) that the case against him is "trumped up". What is he affirmed to have done?
