A London court is set to deliver a crucial judgment on whether WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange will be granted one last appeal in England to challenge his extradition to the United States on espionage charges. The decision, expected to be announced on Tuesday morning in the High Court, could potentially bring an end to Assange's protracted legal battle or prolong it further.
If Assange is denied the right to appeal, there are concerns that he may be swiftly extradited to the U.S. to face the charges. However, his legal team is prepared to seek intervention from the European Court of Human Rights to prevent any such transfer.
