As an analyst with a background in human rights and press freedom, I am relieved that Julian Assange has been granted the opportunity to contest his extradition to the United States. The decision by the U.K. High Court is a positive step towards ensuring that Assange’s legal rights are respected, and that the potential implications for journalistic freedoms are thoroughly examined.
The U.K. High Court granted Julian Assange, the creator of WikiLeaks, a chance to challenge his extradition to the USA in a court hearing scheduled for May 20th.
As a crypto investor following the legal developments regarding Julian Assange, I’ve learned that during a recent court hearing, two judges questioned the US administration’s compliance with certain standards. The administration had declared in April that Assange would have the opportunity to invoke the First Amendment. However, the courts will ultimately decide if this protection applies to a non-US citizen.
As a analyst, I’m pleased to report that the decision made allows Julian Assange, the founder of WikiLeaks based in New York, the opportunity to appeal his extradition to the United States. This news brings relief to us at the Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) where I serve as CEO.
Ginsberg pointed out that pursuing charges against Assange by the US Department of Justice could significantly harm freedom of the press. It would be best for the US DOJ to abandon these harmful charges against Assange.
If Assange is transferred to the U.S. for trial and is subsequently convicted, he faces a potential prison term of up to 175 years according to the Espionage Act and Computer Fraud and Abuse Act. However, American prosecutors have indicated that any actual sentence would likely be much less than the maximum penalty.
Last week, Attorney General Merrick Garland received a letter from the Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) and other organizations urging the Department of Justice to reconsider its decision to pursue charges against Julian Assange.
A 52-year-old Australian man is under accusation for allegedly violating the U.S. Espionage Act in 2010 by disclosing classified military and diplomatic communications. He is facing multiple charges for these actions. The U.S. government has emphasized that the unmasked names in the leaked data posed a significant risk to individuals’ safety.
As a crypto investor, I’m thrilled to share that AssangeDAO secured the winning bid of 16,593 ETH ($53 million) for the Clock NFT in the recent auction. This NFT keeps track of the number of days Julian Assange has been imprisoned. If and when he is released, this NFT will no longer count the days. Additionally, the Censored NFT collection will be unlocked as a result.
