The Old Bailey Central Criminal Court in London rejected a request by the United States to extradite the founder of whistleblowing website WikiLeaks, Julian Assange, on the grounds that it would be detrimental to his mental health and that he would be a suicide risk.
Assange, an Australian citizen, is accused by the US of espionage over the publication of thousands of classified documents in 2010 and 2011. The footage includes statements from Stella Morris, Julian Assange’s partner and WikiLeaks spokesman Kristinn Hrafnsson
