THE EXTRADITION HEARING of Wikileaks editor-in-chief Julian Assange began today.
He arrived at London’s High Court this morning after it was ruled in February at Belmarsh Magistrate’s Court that he be extradited.
Swedish prosecutors want Assange extradited to Sweden from the United Kingdom so that they can question him about allegations of sexual misconduct in August 2010.
He has not been charged with a crime and denies the rape and sexual assault allegations, which were made by two women.
CNN reports that Judge Howard Riddell dismissed the defence arguments, which were made on procedural and human rights grounds, and said that the allegations are extraditable offences.
The judge also said that the European arrest warrant for Assange was valid and that it was “untrue” to claim that Assange would not be able to get a fair trial in Sweden.

Decisions in dublin bus go round and round, round and round round and round…..
They like to do things that suits them and not the customers. Love to know the exact reasons for the change they want. A drivers Sunday roast break.
It might have had something to do with fact that bus journeys in Dublin often go take ages due to their convoluted routes.
I love those endearing Management bullshit terms – reliability, customer friendly, sustainability, efficiency, the list goes on & on.
Dublin bus is a useless quango that only exists for the benefit of the drivers. I live near the 27 bus route and at times they’re so rare that when the bus appears it’s like a mirage
So Rare ! Last week I saw 2x 27buses passing me bye in Fairview within seconds of each other.
The 27 is probably one of the least rare bus routes in their fleet.
This is national news then
Actually it is yesterdays news Aidan, but you are only reading it now due to your crappy Broadband down in Cork.
Haha
Some cream for that burn, Aidan?
This is really important news for the country
It is. More people would be affected by this than the population of Leitrim. Important it gets coverage.
It’s an important route to Beaumont Hospital. The 17a is the most undependable bus ever.
Galway people and Kerry people are REALLY interested in the 27B Dublin bus route.
As is the Secretary General of the United Nations.
Not.
The 360meg bb is fine in Cork thanks
have your say
