Assange medverkade nyligen i en intervju på en socialistisk (trotskistisk?) nättidning.
http://www.wsws.org/articles/2012/ma...jass-m16.shtml
Flera intressanta informationer i artikeln hittade jag. Tråden har redan observerat att det sedan ett år finns en färdig domstolsorder ("sealed indictment") på att Assange skall förhöras i USA. Den avvaktar rättegången i London.
"...the Stratfor files—emails from a Texas-based private intelligence agency—show that the US government has obtained a secret grand jury indictment against me. The US ambassador to the United Kingdom, Louis Susman, stated in February 2011 that
the US government would wait and see what happened with the current Swedish extradition case as to whether it would pursue extradition itself."
En nyhet är denna:
"Regarding the pending Supreme Court decisions in Great Britain over the Swedish extradition case, if we are unsuccessful then I’m expecting to be extradited to Sweden within 10 days and then possibly re-extradited to the United States.
Even if we are successful in the Supreme Court, the situation will be similar because the United States is likely to unseal its espionage charges through the grand jury and apply directly for my extradition from Great Britain.
Vad Assange säger här är att om han, mot alla odds, vinner processen i Supreme Court, så kan man förvänta sig att USA riktar begäran om utlämnande mot UK i stället. Och....
"In the middle of last year,
the UK’s extradition reform panel, which was appointed by the home secretary, met with Eric Holder, the US attorney general, and a number of members of the defence department in the United States".
Det verkar dröja med Supreme Courts besked. Nu har det gått sju veckor sedan förhandlingen. besked utlovades då om tre veckor.
Vad pågår egentligen?
