Wikileaks founder Julian Assange is set to touch down on home soil for the first time in more than a decade after pleading guilty to a single US espionage charge.
For almost 15 years the Australian has been evading US authorities seeking to bring him to American soil on spying charges after he leaked troves of secret state information.
He spent almost seven years holed up in Ecuador's London embassy before being detained at a maximum security prison in the UK where he fought his extradition.
