LONDON: Wikileaks founder Julian Assange will study Monday whether he can appeal to the British Supreme Court against the decision of the High Court that he can be extradited to the United States.
The High Court on December 10 reversed the previous assessment by the British Judge Court that would “oppress” to extradite Australia to the 50th year to the US justice system due to their mental health and the risk of suicide.
The court will now decide whether to allow Assange, which faces 18 charges relating to the release of 500,000 US secret files, to appeal that the British Supreme Court’s decision on “Public Law Public Points”.
Washington wants Assange to face a trial for Wikileaks publication in 2010 Secret Military Documents related to US War in Afghanistan and Iraq.
He could be imprisoned by up to 175 years in the United States, although the right sentence is difficult to estimate.
At the hearing two days in October, US lawyers argue that lower court judges have not given enough weight for other expert testimonies about the state of assange.
They also refer to diplomatic guarantees given since the January decision that Assange will not be held in punishing isolation in a federal supermax prison, and will receive the right treatment.
Approve the appeal, two judges in the High Court in London received new guarantees, noting that they were unusual in such cases and “Khakmat efforts offered by one other government”.
If Assange loses on Monday, this case will be returned to the Westminster judge court with the direction sent to Minister of Home Affairs Priti Patel for the final say.
Assange has been held in London Belmarsh Prison since 2019, despite serving previous punishment for violating the guarantee conditions in a separate case.
He spent seven years at the Ecuador embassy in London to avoid being transferred to Sweden to face allegations of sexual violence which was then dropped.
The anti-war group coalition and thousands of peace campaigners on Friday signed a statement called for direct release.
His fiance, Stella Moris, said he had spent longer in Belmarsh than many prisoners being punished for violent crime.
Nathan Fuller, Director of the Foundation Courage, said: “While the Biden government faces US opponents for the shortcomings of their press freedom, it must overcome his own hypocrisy.” Lock Assange Julian for exposing the truth about all insults.
