Stella Assange has urged Australian journalists to lodge freedom of information requests with the United States government to extract details on its criminal case against her husband because the now-returned WikiLeaks publisher’s plea deal bans him from doing so.
On Julian Assange’s first full day back in Australia, his wife and legal counsel have again thanked those parliamentarians – especially the prime minister – and supporters in Australia and worldwide whose 14-year campaign resulted in his release. Assange, 52, pleaded guilty on Wednesday to one charge of espionage and was sentenced to time already served.
