What to know about Julian Assange as U.K. court considers extradition case
WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange’s fight to evade extradition from Britain to the United States may be nearing an end, after years of legal challenges.
London’s High Court is considering whether the Australia-born activist and whistleblower can further appeal his extradition within the British court system. Hearing took place on Tuesday and Wednesday, and the judges are expected to make their decision at a later date — possibly weeks, even months later.
