Julian Assange has fended off the threat of immediate extradition to the United States to stand trial on charges that could see him spend the rest of his life behind bars, as the High Court in London signaled it would allow him to appeal his case. The court gave the US government three weeks to give a series of assurances around Assange’s First Amendment rights and that he would not face the death penalty. If the US failed to give these assurances, Assange would be allowed to appeal his extradition. At a two-day hearing last month, Assange sought permission to review the 2022 extradition decision signed off by the UK. This is a breaking story and will be updated.
