25.01.2022 "A precedent is to be established for Julian Assange" Feb 12, 2021 The UN special rapporteur on torture, Nils Melzer, says the freedom of information of the we...stern public is under threat. Professor Dr. Melzer, you are involved in the Julian Assange case. Why do they do that? Professor Dr. Nils Melzer First of all, I have to make it clear that I am not Julian Assange's lawyer; Of course I defend the victims of torture. In the Assange case, however, I was initially reluctant to get involved. Why? I think this has to do with the negative image that the press has spread of Julian Assange for years. However, after reading the first evidence and reports from doctors, experts and other UN bodies, I became aware of my own prejudices and took a closer look at the case. As soon as you scratch something on the surface there, a lot of dirt comes to the fore, a lot of abuse by authorities. The deeper I went into the matter, the worse it got. It became clear to me how politicized the case was, and so I finally decided to visit this man personally in prison in order to get an objective picture of him and his situation. Did you visit him alone? No, I was accompanied by two doctors who specialize in examining victims of torture. They are both very experienced and can very well distinguish between the consequences of torture and the stress symptoms of a normal detention regime. So in May 2019 the three of us visited Assange in Belmarsh prison. We had four hours and the doctors examined him independently. After that we all agreed: Assange did indeed show the typical symptoms of victims of psychological torture. How did that show? The detailed medical diagnoses are of course confidential. But basically it was about extreme post-traumatic stress symptoms, but also measurable neurological and cognitive impairments, which are typical for the overall picture of isolation prisoners. As a torture reporter for the UN, I am regularly confronted with it. The next question, of course, is where these symptoms come from, because theoretically they could have other causes than torture or ill-treatment. Assange was blocked in the Ecuadorian embassy for six years and always exposed to the same influences, which must therefore have caused the symptoms observed with a high degree of probability. My investigations gave an overall picture of various,Mutually reinforcing abuses against Assange by all authorities involved. Which authorities were they? On the one hand, there were the rape allegations by the Swedish authorities, which were never investigated in good faith, but were deliberately used for the purpose of publicly demonizing Assange. What do you mean? The Swedish prosecutor unlawfully disseminated these allegations through the mass media, suppressed exculpatory evidence and failed to give Assange an opportunity to defend himself without risking extradition to the United States, where he would certainly face serious human rights violations. The Swedish authorities had done everything behind the scenes to ensure that there was no trial in which he would have been acquitted for lack of evidence. Since he was in the Ecuadorian asylum, all this could easily be blamed on him. But the British authorities have also systematically violated procedural law. With which procedure? Assange has been in a British maximum security prison since April 2019, under very restrictive conditions, which are comparable to solitary confinement and which make contact with his lawyers, his family and other inmates extremely difficult. That made his health even worse. That is neither necessary nor proportionate, because he is not a criminal, but is in custody purely for extradition. The Chilean ex-dictator Pinochet was placed under house arrest in a London villa in the same legal situation. The American extradition proceedings and the expulsion from the Ecuadorian embassy were also marked by serious procedural violations. You can see very clearly that this man's rights have been systematically violated for ten years.These are not just the irregularities that can occur once in every procedure. We are talking about countries like Sweden, Great Britain or the USA. These countries have sophisticated legal systems where this does not happen by accident. How is the decision on non-extradition to be assessed in this context? It is not a gesture of humanity. The court deliberately upheld the logic of the US criminal case for espionage and the publication of classified documents. In the end, the court wrote that the only reason he was not being extradited was because he was mentally ill and the American prison conditions would therefore most likely drive him to suicide. From a legal point of view, however, the British have confirmed everything the US wants. The USA is particularly interested in having a deterrent precedent in the future, according to which any journalist who publishes secret information from the USA can be prosecuted as a spy. And with this judgment they have come a big step closer to this goal. What then is the meaning of the addition, not to hand him over because of his state of health? It is hoped that Assange's attorneys will not appeal so that this precedent judgment is not challenged as such. An American appeal, on the other hand, will of course only challenge the part of the judgment that denies extradition on medical grounds. If the Americans now give guarantees that they will adjust the conditions of detention and provide Assange with a specialist doctor, then the appeals court could overturn the decision and still have him extradited without questioning the rest of the precedent judgment. Now that's the risk. What can you possibly do about it? Assange's lawyers would now have to appeal the other points of the first instance judgment themselves, so that these issues must also be discussed by the appeals court. Could Assange's situation change with President Biden? It could be that President Biden does not necessarily want an espionage trial as he risks a conflict with the major US media but also a rejection before the Supreme Court. Perhaps he would be very happy if the British judgment of first instance stayed. So he could withdraw the appeal, either now or at a later stage. Regardless of this, he could still uphold the indictment in the USA. Assange would then have to be released, but could not leave the UK because the US could demand extradition immediately in any other country. Assange would then have to spend his whole life under this sword of Damocles. With this strategy he would actually be paralyzed. Yes, the US could prevent that he could ever go back to his traditional job as a journalist or to Wikileaks. If he did that, the US could demand extradition again immediately. I hardly believe that these four states have invested millions in persecuting him for ten years only to just let him go on humanitarian grounds. You have to be aware that this is not a legal, but a purely political process. The allegations of betrayal of secrets and rape are, according to your statements, constructed? You can rule out betrayal of secrets, because Assange never had a duty of confidentiality vis-à-vis the USA and did not steal the published information, but published it like other journalists. You have to be careful with rape. It may well be that he didn't behave properly, I don't know. But if you listen to the two allegations as a lawyer, you immediately see that they cannot be proven, unless Assange would make a confession or had a relevant criminal record. Neither was the case. Then the allegation made can hardly be proven? In both cases, the criminal liability depends on factors for which there is simply no evidence-based investigation. Whether a condom was intentionally or accidentally destroyed, by whom and at what point in time, and whether or not a woman slept at the moment of intercourse, can simply not be determined with sufficient legal certainty in retrospect. The fact that Assange was branded as a fugitive rapist for nine years, even though the investigating authorities knew they would not be able to prove the allegations in the end, shows that they were up to something completely different. How did the ads come about? The women had voluntary sexual contact with Assange and actually did not want to advertise, but wanted to get him to take an HIV test. The authorities then convinced the women that something very bad had been perpetrated against them here, which must now be prosecuted. The authorities knew, of course, that the evidence would not succeed, but they wanted to make it public in order to destroy Assange's reputation. They then deliberately exposed the women to media interest, and because the allegations could not be proven, the women were soon accused of lying. That is very perfidious. How did all this get to the public? The authorities leaked Assange's name and so much information about the women to the press within hours that they could not remain anonymous either. According to Swedish law, however, the names of those involved in a criminal investigation cannot be published until charges are brought. How did Assange deal with it? He extended his stay in Sweden by a month, always cooperated fully with the police and even obtained an exit permit two weeks before his departure. The authorities, on the other hand, waited for him to leave Sweden and then immediately accused him of trying to evade jurisdiction. After that, the allegations were artificially kept alive and at the same time prevented a process from occurring. Since the Swedish investigative authorities were aware that Assange should have been acquitted due to the lack of evidence, they constantly delayed the proceedings and never brought charges. For ten years, however, the media consciously maintained the image of the suspected rapist who evades the trial. How did Assange get into the Ecuadorian embassy? Sweden submitted an extradition application to the British, which he evaded by fleeing to the embassy. He assumed that Sweden would informally pass it on to the USA. Because Sweden has a relevant history and had already done that with other people. Would it have been so easy? There is a passage in the extradition contract with the USA that allows someone to be temporarily loaned out to the USA without an extradition process, that is, temporarily surrender, whereby the duration of this loan is not limited. Assange had always promised that he would come to Sweden if the authorities gave him a guarantee that he would not be extradited to the USA. But he was denied that. That is the only reason why he asked for asylum at the Ecuadorian embassy. Ecuador did not protect him from the prosecution of the sex offense, only from extradition to the USA. So Assange never evaded the Swedish trial. One has the impression that Julian Assange is to be finished off because he has uncovered something unpleasant. If journalists get reliable evidence of crime and corruption from authorities, they are likely to publish it. That is also the function of the press. As a result of Assange's publications, nobody was endangered, except perhaps impunity for the criminals. Contrary to popular claims, he also went to great lengths to censor names. The accusation that he published everything unprotected is not true. But a Guardian journalist published the password in a book that allowed access to all censored documents. As a result, Assange decided to publish the documents concerned uncensored at WikiLeaks. That's why he's being persecuted today, actually for the redistribution of material,that was already publicly available. Was the Guardian journalist followed? No never. After what you said, the question arises as to how it is possible that legal principles have been so obviously broken here and, as you said at the beginning, not shrinking from forms of psychological torture. Has the crackdown on people who oppose the mainstream or expose machinations of governments intensified in recent years? In the aftermath of 9/11 we can observe that torture was unfortunately increasingly practiced again with the activities of the CIA in Guantánamo, the Abu Ghraib scandal, etc. That is one side. But the fact that Western dissidents and whistleblowers are being persecuted so aggressively is primarily the responsibility of the Obama administration. Obama has had more whistleblowers persecuted than all previous US presidents combined. Is that a phenomenon in the USA? It's an increasing trend, especially in Anglo-Saxon countries. In Australia, for example, there is the case of David McBride, who made the public aware of the cruel war crimes of the Australian army in Afghanistan and is now on trial for them and threatened with a long prison term. Chelsea Manning originally received 35 years imprisonment. That is completely disproportionate. In our legal system there is no such long punishment, even for the worst violent criminals. But the people mentioned here are threatened with draconian punishments just for telling the truth. Does it really seem like a method? Assange, of course, is not the only one who has suffered this fate, nor is it the worst case of torture that I have seen in my work. I have a dozen such reports on my desk every day, they are always horrific stories. The Assange case is also emblematically important because a precedent is to be established here. What would the consequences be? The freedom of the press and the freedom of information of the Western public would be severely restricted and people who uncovered the authorities' dirty secrets would be criminalized. Once that happens, we no longer have to have any illusions about where we are headed. So we have to ask ourselves how do we deal with the truth, how transparent are our governments today? How much insight do we still have? We supposedly have freedom of information everywhere, but if you ask something delicate, you only get louder blackened pages today. But when we are no longer allowed to know what our authorities are doing with the power made available to them, when our citizens' questions become a supposed security risk, and when everyone is being persecuted,who questions the impunity of the powerful, the rule of law and democracy are also acutely endangered. It is therefore very important to prevent structures from being created that could become dangerous in the future.

16.01.2022 The Brisbane Assange Action Queensland community are very excited and relieved to announce Australian WikiLeaks journalist Julian Assange will not be extradited to the United States. Julian's bail hearing is today Wed JAN 6 in London. We are waiting with great anticipation for his release. For Julian to walk free under the sky for the first time in 10 years. The threat is not over and the US are most likely to appeal the verdict. We must remain vigilant, although the outcome... of the case was a win, the verdict was an insult to Julian and press freedom. It does not uphold the rule of law. It is not good enough to torture and detain a good man for 10 years to a point his life is in danger. It is not safe for any of us if this criminal behaviour continues. We are seeing States in an attempt to eliminate any opposition are preying on their own citizens. State Terrorism is not a new phenomena. Bring Your Light was held in ANZAC square on JAN 4 to remember the victims of post 9/11 US wars both civilian and solider. The event was held to commemorate the work of Journalist Julian Assange and Whistleblower David McBride in their contribution to the Australian people and the people of the Middle East. We would like to thank everyone for their enormous contribution to making this historical event happen. You made it happen. From small things big things grow. It is only the beginning.
15.01.2022 Everything they are taking away from Julian, they are taking from you. These are your rights, your freedoms, your rights to know, your democracy, your freedom of information, your country, your family's future. Start fighting for it now by calling your local MP. #WeAreAllAssange

Millions of people including The CITY OF MELBOURNE and other prominent International Groups have joined the call for the overreach of US law to be stopped. The list includes Mr Kevin Rudd (former Australian Prime Minister) and Mr Bob Carr (former Foreign Minister), International groups, The United Nations, Amnesty International and The European Council and a petition of over half a million signatures, just to name a few. We would be grateful if you would join one of the many Australian Councils that have passed motions of support for Mr Assange, and make similar representations to the Prime Minister Mr Morrison and Australian Foreign Minister, Ms Payne. The overreach of US Law, human rights violations and abuse of legal process in Mr Assange's case must be highlighted and stopped. The matter is rather urgent as a UK extradition trial resumes in September, 2020 and could result is a miscarriage of justice for an Australian Citizen to life imprisonment in the United States for legitimate publishing of illegal war crimes. United Nations Special Rapporteur on Torture, Professor Nils Melzer classified the treatment of Mr Assange as "psychological torture". He added, gross violations of his human rights are being kept from public scrutiny. Please refer to the attached long list of supporting organisations that demand the immediate release of Julian, and also a list of prestigious awards presented to Mr Assange including the Walkley award, the highest Award for Journalism in Australia. The Australian Assange Campaign team are ready to provide further information, documentation and assistance if required. We trust you will give this matter your urgent consideration and look forward to your support to free Mr Assange.

07.01.2022 The Morrison Government should stop behaving like a hypocritical regime that knowingly stands on podiums with those that organised the butchering of a journalis...ts into 7 pieces (Jamal Khashoggi). Complies and has never spoken out against the co-ordinated criminal situation of psychological torturing ("facing the music"PM Scott Morrison's own words) of an Australian Citizen and journalist that published facts revealing war crimes (Julian Assange) and finally and completely on its own the Morrison Government actively persecutes honest Australian Citizens that reported war crimes to their employer (the Australian Defence Force) and their employer did nothing for two years so David Mc Bride revealed the evidence to journalist to be published in the public interest. Australians do not want their taxation to be financing a "regime" that fosters war crimes and slashes children's throats and throws them in a river in Afghanistan amongst many other psychopathic murders in cold blood and then covers them up. Our government continues to prosecute former military lawyer David McBride for exposing Australian war crimes in Afghanistan. #sydneycriminallawyers #davidmcbride #warcrimes #Afghanistan See more

05.01.2022 Proposition de lettre à envoyer aux députés européens pour soutenir la référence à Julian Assange lors du vote de ce mardi 24 novembre en soirée. Cher [no...m du député européen], Le mardi 24, lors de la séance de vote du soir, vous voterez sur le rapport sur la situation des droits fondamentaux dans l'Union européenne 2018-2019. Je vous invite à soutenir l'amendement 44 lors de ce vote. Le rapporteur de ce rapport, la députée européenne Clare Daly, y a inclus une référence au fondateur de WikiLeaks, Julian Assange, reconnaissant que son cas constitue une menace pour les journalistes et la liberté d'expression en Europe. Toutefois, au stade de la commission, le Parti populaire européen, les Socialistes et Démocrates et le groupe Renouveau, ont tous voté pour supprimer la référence à Assange de ce texte. Je pense que la poursuite pénale de Julian Assange - pour un journalisme effectué entièrement au sein de l'Union européenne - a des implications de grande envergure. Elle menace la liberté de la presse en Europe et met en péril les droits fondamentaux de tous les Européens. Je ne suis pas seul dans ce cas. La Fédération européenne des journalistes a déclaré que la détention et les poursuites engagées contre M. Assange créent "un précédent extrêmement dangereux pour les journalistes, les acteurs des médias et la liberté de la presse". L'Assemblée parlementaire du Conseil de l'Europe a reconnu que "la la détention et les poursuites pénales de M. Julian Assange ont créé un dangereux précédent pour les journalistes" et a demandé "que l'extradition de M. Assange vers les États-Unis soit interdite et qu'il soit rapidement libéré". La Haut-Commissaire aux droits de l'homme du Conseil de l'Europe, Mme Dunja Mijatovic, a déclaré que "permettre l'extradition de Julian Assange sur cette base aurait un effet paralysant sur la liberté des médias et pourrait en fin de compte entraver la presse dans l'accomplissement de sa tâche d'information et de surveillance publique dans les sociétés démocratiques". Il est normal que ce cas soit mentionné dans le rapport du Parlement européen sur les droits fondamentaux et il est inacceptable qu'il ait été supprimé. Quoi que l'on pense d'Assange, le fait est que son cas est préjudiciable aux droits fondamentaux en Europe. Les députés européens doivent s'y opposer. Le rapporteur, Clare Daly, a déposé un amendement en plénière, l'amendement X, qui ajoute la référence à l'affaire Assange dans le texte. Il est essentiel qu'il soit adopté. Veuillez soutenir l'amendement 44 ce mardi soir. Je serai très attentif à ce vote. J'espère que je peux compter sur vous pour faire ce qui s'impose. Bien à vous Source: https://diem25.org/make-your-voice-heard-protect-assange-a/
