Wikileaks founder Julian Assange accused of rape

Julian Assange was cited as saying the release of the allegations was "deeply disturbing"
Swedish authorities say they have issued an arrest warrant for Wikileaks founder Julian Assange, on accusations of rape and molestation.
The warrant was issued late on Friday, said Karin Rosander, communications head at Sweden's prosecutors' office.
Swedish police have been trying to contact Mr Assange, but have not yet been able to, she told the BBC.
Wikileaks, criticised for leaking Afghan war documents, quoted him saying the charges were "without basis".

The message, which appeared on Twitter and was attributed directly to Mr Assange, said the appearance of the allegations "at this moment is deeply disturbing".
In a series of other messages posted on the Wikileaks Twitter feed, the whistle-blowing website said: "No-one here has been contacted by Swedish police", and that it had been warned to expect "dirty tricks".
More documents due
Last month, Wikileaks published more than 75,000 secret US military documents on the war in Afghanistan.
US authorities criticised the leak, saying it could put the lives of coalition soldiers and Afghans, especially informers, at risk.
Mr Assange has said that Wikileaks is intending to release a further 15,000 documents in the coming weeks.
Ms Rosander said there were two separate allegations against Mr Assange, one of rape and the other of molestation.
She gave no details of the accusations. She said that as far as she knew they related to alleged incidents that took place in Sweden.
Media reports say Mr Assange was in Sweden last week to talk about his work and defend the decision by Wikileaks to publish the Afghan war logs.
The allegations were first reported in the Swedish newspaper Expressen.

Sweden isn't the kind of country where the authorities would drum up false charges to silence a critic. If he's accused of rape, chances are he commited rape.

Probably, but I think it was some sort of nasty honey trap and he fell for it. Should've stayed with Palmela instead of venturing off the ranch.

I don't.

I support him on the leaks, but I have no idea what kind of person he is, and I think the accusations are vastly more likely to be real than some sort of setup.

 

[Narmer]

I don't.

Really? I don't give a shit either way but I'm sure the guy is smarter than that. He knew (or should've knew) there would be dirty tricks. But maybe he thinks he's a rockstar and thought bitches wanted him to fuck them. Anyway, in the murky world of intelligence, I think he mistook fiction for truth and now has been accused of rape.

Hey, if Barack Obama can be accused of snorting crack cocaine and having gay sex in a limo by some guy during the presidential campaign, you don't think our government is capable of doing better? Just sayin...

 

[nick1985]

He looks like a creep.

 

[hal2kilo]

Must be some kind of world shadow government conspiracy.

Waiting for WTC-7 tinfoil hatters to show up..........

 

[PeshakJang]

Is it a man or a woman?

Seriously...

 

[Craig234]

I'm very suspicious of the charges. Either he's crazily out of control, or the government has badly crossed lines to try to discredit him and we should punish them.

It's a probable cause arrest, there are enough evidence to make the charge and a continuous arrest without court interference.

I'm not all that familiar with Swedish law but to me that sounds like an open and shut case, apparently there are witnesses and DNA evidence along with hospital visits confirming injuries to the girls genitals consistent with forced penetration.

Perhaps he just likes the Talibans way of fucking through force?

Either way, he's a traitor and should be shot.

 

[Lemon law]

Why per say accuse Sweden, if the girl said yes yes yes to Julian Assange to induce the sex act and then told the Swedish prosecution she said no no no, it still would cause the Swedish prosecution to issue the arrest warrant. Absent other evidence it may boil down to he said she said.

As for me, I don't have any evidence one way or the other, but in future ole Julian might want to tape record his own conversations and meetings if some dark force is trying to set him up.

Meanwhile I will just reserve judgment.

Little twat gets to party with the big boys in the in crowd after being famous for being a traitor to his nation, little twat rapes two girls because he's all powerful and they should just oblige him...

Fuck you, these are two regular girls and he raped them by every evidence found and you are excusing that because this fucking traitor is someone you want to fuck your arse...

Let go off of your fantasy lover, he's a fucking rapist and the evidence isn't only the girls words, it's witnesses and DNA evidence.

 

[Sinsear]

I'm very suspicious of the charges.

Considering your past of siding with sex offenders, I'm not surprised.

 

[khon]

Well it seems the charges against him have been dropped:

Swedish prosecutors on Saturday withdrew an arrest warrant for WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, saying the rape allegations it was based on is unfounded.

I guess that's why the prosecutors revoked the warrant?

Where did you even read that? Or did you just pull it out of your ass?

I see an "accident" coming.

Oooops! Time to man up and admit you were way off base.

I know, right? I was kinda looking forward to a long and drawn out battle, to be honest. Not that I dislike the guy, but if he was guilty it would have been more entertaining to watch. Kinda disappointed, to be honest

 

[Steeplerot]

He looks like a creep.

So says a guy with a green skinned chick icon. :awe:

from the article:

"I don't think there is reason to suspect that he has committed rape," chief prosecutor Eva Finne said, in announcing the withdrawal of the warrant. She did not address the status of the molestation case, a less serious charge that would not lead to an arrest warrant.

But Karin Rosander, a spokeswoman for the Swedish Prosecution Authority, told NBC News that the allegation of molestation remains. However, Rosander said that after a new prosecutor looked at the allegations, the arrest warrant was withdrawn because the severity of the case does not require an arrest at this stage.

Rosander told NBC News Swedish authorities have no idea where Assange is but have been trying to contact him.

Swedish prosecutors had urged Assange — a nomadic 39-year-old Australian whose whereabouts were unclear — to turn himself in to police to face questioning in one case involving suspicions of rape and another based on an accusation of molestation.

Something smells here if you ask me?
