LONDON, June 18 ― On June 17 2022, UK Home Secretary Priti Patel issued a statement confirming she had approved the US government’s request to extradite Julian Assange. The Australian founder of Wikileaks faces 18 criminal charges of computer misuse and espionage.
Assange’s brother has stated the appeal will include new information, including reports of plots to assassinate Assange. If, after all legal avenues are exhausted in the UK, the order to extradite stands, Assange could take a human rights action to the European Court of Human Rights. However, it remains unclear exactly what form Australia’s diplomatic or political advocacy is taking.
