Julian Assange has been granted leave to mount a fresh appeal against his extradition to the US on charges of leaking military secrets and will be able to challenge assurances from American officials on how a trial there would be conducted.
Two judges had deferred a decision in March on whether Assange, who is trying to avoid being prosecuted in the US on espionage charges relating to the publication of thousands of classified and diplomatic documents, could take his case to another appeal hearing.
On that occasion, Dame Victoria Sharp and Mr Justice Johnson ruled he would be able to bring an appeal against extradition on three grounds, unless “satisfactory” assurances were given by the US.
The assurances requested were that he would be permitted to rely on the first amendment of the US constitution, which protects freedom of speech; that he would not be “prejudiced at trial” due to his nationality; and that the death penalty would not be imposed.
“Rapist who successfully stalled until rape charges were dropped is trying to stall until other charges are dropped too”
Hey look, a reactionary liberal who thinks anyone who opposes anything about the US is evil! Who would’ve guessed?
“Believe all women, except the ones who say anything against One Of Our’s™”
Not quite how I remember that phrase going.
Apparently, there was no rape (german).
Wow, I’m so glad that the online left is now into outright rape apologia. “There was only a preliminary investigation because he fled the day he was going to be arrested, therefore, this is clearly a false accusation” My favorite bit is where the article talks about how the woman accusing him of rape never actually accused him of rape, and then outright admits
She says that’s not a problem. He could sleep with her in her bed. Consensual sex occurred that night. With condom. But she says Assange intentionally broke the condom during intercourse. If that is the case, it is of course a sexual offense, so-called stealthing.
But hey, believe all women, until they say something against someone we like.
Fucking repulsive.
“He was tortured because he stayed in an embassy of his own free will to avoid being arrested” is another fucking gem.
Some people have no fucking decency.
Julian Assagne is accused of leaking secret documents about war crimes not rapes
He was actually accused of rape, previously.
This is your mind on CIA propaganda
Hey, now. Freedom of the press is for patriots. Foreigners who don’t support the empire can get fucked. /s
“Believe all women is just for people I don’t like. People I like can get away with rape”
Is this what passes for feminism now?
Very ironic coming from someone so supportive of our hair sniffing rapist of a president xD
Also zamn I forgot you had two accounts, why do you have to make me do twice as much blocking :c
Dame Victoria Sharp and Mr Justice Johnson ruled
…are we SURE this isn’t the porn parody version?
