Sky better sound....they have cut out the Ambassador's interpreter
David Crouch, in Gothenburg, has spoken to one of Assange’s lawyers in Stockholm and emails:
Per Samuelson, a lawyer for Assange in Stockholm, said he and his colleagues were planning to press ahead with an appeal against last month’s decision by a lower court to reject their challenge to the Swedish prosecutor.
He said he could offer no further clarification of Assange’s comments this morning that he would be leaving the Ecuadorean embassy “soon”. The appeal would be filed shortly, he said.
“I think we have a very good chance (the Swedish appeal court) will not uphold the decision to keep him in custody,” Samuelson said.
“The law is on Assange’s side, it is not right to keep him in custody in this situation. We have further arguments that will be presented at the appeal.”
Assange’s lawyers in Sweden have argued that the limits on his freedom are disproportionate and unreasonable, that the European arrest warrant against him should be rescinded because it cannot be implemented, that they should be granted access to the case files held by the prosecutor, including text messages sent by Assange’s accusers, and that the prosecutor should travel to London to interview him as a first move towards breaking the deadlock.
