Other arguments would feature medical evidence, public denunciations by leading US political figures, and details from the case of Chelsea Manning, an ex-intelligence analyst who was convicted by a US Army court-martial in 2013 of espionage and other offences for leaking secret cables to WikiLeaks. He spent almost seven years holed up in cramped rooms at the embassy where he fled in 2012 to avoid extradition to Sweden where he was then wanted for questioning over allegations of rape which were later dropped.

DefendAssange 'He could spend decades in prison if convicted.' It's 175 years he's facing, ie LIFE! Also could've mentioned that Chelsea Manning is back in prison because she won't lie-testify against Assange, and is being fined punitively every day she doesn't. The rest of the article is OK.

couragefound What treaty?

BellaMagnani Please, correct: Assange asylum demands had nothing to do with with the Sweden preliminary investigation. It was always about US political persecution for publishing. History proved him right.
