The Swedish prosecutor heading an investigation into a rape allegation against WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange filed a request with a local court for his detention in absentia
STOCKHOLM - The Swedish prosecutor heading an investigation into a rape allegation against WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange filed a request with a local court on Monday for him to be detained in absentia.
Sweden reopened the rape investigation last week. It was begun in 2010 but dropped in 2017 after Assange took refuge in the Ecuadorean embassy in London. She said she would issue a European arrest warrant for Assange to be surrendered to Sweden if the court decided to detain him. “Since he is in prison in England, it has so far not been possible even to speak to him by telephone,” Per Samuelson told Reuters.
