Julian Assange police statement leaked; legal team furious

Thanks to an ever-inquisitive media, WikiLeaks inventor Julian Assange’s sexual assault case may have taken a dark turn. Julian Assange’s law enforcement officials statement has leaked out to the press, and the British paper The Guardian was happy to print the alleged facts. The allegedly confidential report is said to contain visual sexual details of Assange’s current assault case.

Police statement about Julian Assange

Julian Assange's camp is working for making sure free info and transparency are accessible when releasing confidential intelligence cables. The legal team does not think that a turnabout has taken place with the recent law enforcement official’s statement that was supposedly leaked.

Bjorn Hurtig, Julian Assange’s Swedish lawyer, plans to file a formal complaint over the police statement leak.

"It is with great concern that I hear about this because it puts Julian and his defense in a bad position,” Hurtig said.

Trial because of the press

Jemina Khan, Michael Moore and Bianca Jagger were all those who helped pay the £275,000 ($432,305) bail by super star backers for Julian Assange. Nevertheless, sexual assault charges still face Assange in Sweden. Several think that the Assange police statement was released on purpose as a "smear campaign" so that the media may look down on the 39 year old journalist.

The sex allegations towards Julian Assange within the Guardian were just a "brief summary" supposedly. His lawful team claims that getting Assange convicted within the court of public opinion was the real purpose of it.

It’s a conspiracy theory that Sweden and Americans are involved in

After the information of Julian Assange's sexual assault claims came out, the U.S. and Sweden have been working together. Assange believes they’re trying to punish him for the various United States intelligence cables that he released. Mark Stephens is Julian Assange's lawyer. He says that Assange will not be extradited and tried under United States treason laws if he has anything to do with it. Assange is not a U.S. citizen meaning this likely can be the case. He is actually Australian. It should be interesting to see how the U.S. reacts to this thinking about Australian PM Julia Gillard did announce that Assange didn't break any Australian laws.
