Assange Extradition Saga Continues
High Court to Rule on Assange's Challenge
Julian Assange, founder of the whistleblowing website Wikileaks, will learn this week whether he can fight to stop his extradition to the United States.
Assange, an Australian, is challenging his extradition in the High Court of England and Wales, arguing that it is politically motivated and that he would not receive a fair trial in the US.
The High Court is expected to rule on Assange's appeal on Monday, March 25th, 2024.
Assange's case has drawn international attention, with supporters arguing that he is a whistleblower who has been targeted for exposing US war crimes and secrets.
However, the US government argues that Assange is a criminal who has put lives at risk by leaking classified information.
The High Court's ruling will have a significant impact on Assange's future and could potentially set a precedent for other cases involving whistleblowers.
