The WikiLeaks founder was arrested in London in 2019.

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange gestures from the window of a prison van as he is driven out of Southwark Crown Court in London on May 1, 2019.

Supporters of WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange stand outside the high court on the day Assange appeals against his extradition to the United States, in London, Feb. 20, 2024. Stella Assange, a longtime partner who married Assange in 2022, added that the WikiLeaks founder had "no prospect" for a fair trial under the U.S. court system.

Assange, an Australian citizen, had continued appealing the decision. A hearing in February in London's High Court was expected to be his final chance within the U.K. courts to stop the overseas transfer, although he may choose to continue his appeal with the European Court of Human Rights.
