UK Home Secretary Priti Patel has approved an American request to extradite WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange. Patel signed the order on June 17th<\/a>, bringing Assange one step closer to facing espionage charges in the US. <\/p>\n
Assange\u2019s legal counsel plans to appeal the decision before the UK\u2019s High Court. \u201cThis is a dark day for press freedom and for British democracy,\u201d WikiLeaks said in a statement<\/a>. \u201cJulian did nothing wrong.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\u201cA dark day for press freedom\u201d says WikiLeaks<\/q><\/aside>\n<\/div>\nPatel\u2019s approval follows a series of legal losses for Assange. In December, the UK\u2019s High Court approved Assange\u2019s extradition<\/a>, concluding that US authorities had credibly promised humane treatment in the American prison system. He was later refused an appeal<\/a> by the UK Supreme Court, leaving a judge to refer the final decision<\/a> to Patel. In the US, Assange would face 17 counts of violating<\/a> espionage law and one count of violating the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, stemming from his work with whistleblower Chelsea Manning to publish classified American military documents. The claims carry a theoretical maximum of 175 years in prison, but the US government has indicated it\u2019s seeking a far shorter sentence.<\/p>\n
Assange\u2019s ongoing case has raised alarm about the legal status of journalists and whistleblowers. Groups like Amnesty International and Reporters Without Borders have previously called on the US government to drop the charges, warning that prosecution could have a chilling effect on reporters\u2019 willingness to publish newsworthy leaked documents. Assange\u2019s leaks, published in conjunction with several mainstream news outlets, revealed a trove of details<\/a> about the operations of numerous governments including the US.<\/p>\n
Assange has been held in UK prison since 2019 and previously spent seven years in the Ecuadorian embassy in London. His defense team has argued that US prison conditions would exacerbate physical and mental health declines<\/a> that he\u2019s already faced during his imprisonment. US authorities have promised Assange won\u2019t be placed in a high-security \u201csupermax\u201d prison after extradition, and if he\u2019s convicted, he can choose to serve his sentence in his home country of Australia.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
