Julian Assange: US Lawyers Allege Risk to Lives from Leaks
WikiLeaks Founder Faces Extradition Appeal
High Court Hearing Adjourned
Julian Assange, the founder of the controversial whistleblowing website WikiLeaks, is facing a final bid to appeal against his extradition from the UK to the US. The US government has accused Assange of putting lives at risk by publishing confidential information from military and diplomatic sources.
Assange's lawyers have argued that the prosecution against him is politically motivated and that he would not receive a fair trial in the US. They also claim that the extradition treaty between the UK and the US does not apply in this case.
