Breaking: A Swedish prosecutor said she would not proceed with an investigation into an allegation of rape against WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange after a review of the evidence.

In a statement released on Tuesday, WikiLeaks said Assange had “always expressed his willingness to engage” in the Swedish investigation, which it said had become “exceptionally politicised”.

He said the UK Crown Prosecution Service had “artificially prolonged the Swedish preliminary investigation” by advising Sweden against questioning Assange in the UK and pressuring Sweden into keeping the investigation alive. While there, he said, he met a woman who came to a speech he gave on WikiLeaks who “appeared to be romantically interested in me” and invited him to her home.According to a European Arrest Warrant, the woman alleged to police that Assange initiated sex while she was asleep “in a helpless state” and did not use a condom despite her “expressed wish”, in a sexual act “designed to violate the injured party’s sexual integrity”.

Prison computer 'not suitable' for Julian Assange, court toldA member of Assange's team said the prison computer was unlikely to have internet access for research. Get the guy a damn computer. Why should he? No prisoner has access to the internet for obvious reasons: Posting to social media Access to porn Access to whatever else And no, blockers don't block everything. He's a convicted criminal and he abides by the rules of incarceration. I wouldn't give him access either, I really don't want to hear any more about him for a long time.
