US Delivers Formal Extradition Request for WikiLeaks Founder to UK
english.almasirah.net/details.php?es…
The Assange case is a poster child of state persecution. Every journalist, activist & all who care about democracy should know about the massive propaganda & legal corruption used to take Assange down. This is what tyranny looks like! commondreams.org/views/2019/05/…
The UN Rapporteur on Torture, @NilsMelzer, has released a scathing report detailing years of legal persecution, smear campaigns and harassment that have amounted to a campaign of psychological torture against Assange.
democracynow.org/2019/5/31/seg_… …
UN expert Melzer’s report found that the legal process used against Assange has been profoundly & systematically biased, violates the rule of law,has little to no basis in fact,has prevented Assange from defending himself & has effectively silenced & ensnared him.
UN Rapporteur @NilsMelzer on #Assange: “In 20 years, I have never seen a group of democratic States ganging up to deliberately isolate, demonise and abuse a single individual for such a long time and with so little regard for human dignity and the rule of law.”
"I’ve never seen a single person pursued so relentlessly and with so little foundation… This is persecution, not prosecution. It must stop here and it must stop now.” UN Special Rapporteur on Torture @NilsMelzer on Julian Assange #FreeAssange
The US Is Applying its Jurisdiction To Other Countries.
Julian Assange: In his own words.

Assange’s “crime” was revealing deep, embarrassing, sometimes deadly, malfeasance by numerous actors, including the U.S. government, the media, the Democratic Party-Clinton machine, and Israel.

The Justice Department has delivered a formal extradition request to the UK for Julian Assange. It's hard to overstate what a significant & fundamental threat to PressFreedom charges against him for publishing classified information are. washingtonpost.com/local/public-s…
"If Assange is left to swing in the breeze,it will be an open invitation for any journalist,anywhere in the world, to be extradited to the US if the administration deems that they have published material which threatens US national security."
'The big problem there is that Julian has no access to the means to prepare his case.& his case,I think,has another 2months before its full hearing.
He needs+access to the means to prepare his defence against this terrible extradition order.'

WATCH: Interview with journalist Andrew Fowler, who knows Assange. Talks about the character assassination, Clinton publications, psychological warfare, Belmarsh and @nilsmelzer's report on Assange's condition.
Highly recommended.
How public humiliation works: On 11 April #JulianAssange was mocked for his beard throughout the world. During my visit, he explained to us that his shaving kit had been deliberately taken away three months earlier.
nyp.st/2Zll1bq
Another key read from @medialens on J.Assange: “According to the ProQuest media database, since [UN special rapporteur] Melzer reported on Assange's condition on May 31, the Guardian has mentioned his name in one article”.
The US extradition request to the UK must be denied. Assange is a journalist who has done his work as a journalist. The extradition request contravenes the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights and the European Convention on Human Rights #Assange

"Very poor" media reporting, the forcible extraction of Assange from his political asylum and @NilsMelzer's findings have helped galvanise Western academics into voicing their support for Assange as per today's open letter in @Independent
