Julian Assange to Be Freed After Five Years in UK Prison Under U.S. Plea Deal
Jun 24, 2024, 11:21 PM
WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has reached a plea deal with the U.S. Justice Department, allowing him to go free after spending five years in a British prison. Assange plans to plead guilty to violating the Espionage Act, which will enable him to avoid imprisonment in the United States. According to court documents, he will receive credit for time served in the UK and is expected to return to Australia upon his release. This plea deal, reached with the Biden administration, marks the end of a nearly 15-year legal battle over his prosecution for leaking classified U.S. documents. Assange is expected to appear in a Saipan court on Wednesday.
