A lawyer representing WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange alleged today that Ecuador's government has spread lies about his behavior inside its embassy in London. 9News

Assange, who appeared much older when he emerged from the embassy than when before he sought refuge there in August 2012, is in custody at Belmarsh Prison in southeast London awaiting sentencing in Britain for skipping bail to avoid being sent to Sweden as part of an investigation of a rape allegation. Sweden is considering reviving the investigation.

UK Home Secretary Sajid Javid would be expected to have the final say in which claim takes priority. More than 70 British legislators have urged Javid to give priority to a case involving rape allegations ahead of the US request. Assange has denied the rape allegation, asserting the sex was consensual. He also has not formally responded to the US conspiracy charge.

Up to Ecuador as to who they offer political asylum and if they with to withdraw it. Assange should have realised that if you throw enough shit around the room, some is bound to land on you as well. REAP WHAT YOU SOW!!! No sympathy whatsoever

Go to give it to him, he took the crooked governments on and made them look stupid for years, but now they've got him and it's time to leave the house...... Julian!

Should have kicked him out years ago.... worse flat mate everrrrrr

Embassy ‘spread lies’ about AssangeA lawyer representing WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has alleged that Ecuador’s government has spread lies about his behaviour inside its embassy in London, where Assange sought asylum in 2012. Reality is he needs to face the music He was never going to be able to stay in there forever Reality was this new guy in the Embassy had instructions to remove Julian by his boss it seems so deprivng Julian of a bed and other home comforts didnt work they forceably evicted him it seems. I dont agree with how they went about it. He is now at the Mercey of the Courts now😡
