Assange Can Be Extradited To US, High Court Rules

LONDON, ENGLAND - DECEMBER 10: Stella Morris, partner of Julian Assange, speaks to the press outside the Royal Courts of Justice following an extradition hearing on December 10, 2021 in London, England. The High Court ruled that Assange can be extradited to the United States, where he is charged with hacking and other crimes. The ruling overturned a January ruling by a district court judge that Assange should not be extradited due to his mental state. The Wikileaks founder has been imprisoned since 2019, following seven years living in the Ecuadorian embassy in London, where he was avoiding extradition to Sweden on unrelated charges.
