In an interview with NBC News, Mr. Assange said that while “we have not disclosed our source,” he rebuffed claims of Russian involvement.

WikiLeaks' Fugitive Julian Assange Pleads For Asylum In France 

By Simon Kent, Jul. 3, 2015, Breitbart

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has applied for political asylum in France after a minister indicated that it might be viewed favourably. The Elysee Palace promptly rejected the request with a polite ‘non’.

In an open letter to French President Francois Hollande published today by Le Monde, the fugitive alleges he is a victim of persecution by the US government over what he claims is the exposure of US human rights violations and controversial practices. According to the RT news service, Assange’s plea said:

For the simple fact of publishing information meriting public interest that whistleblowers had passed to WikiLeaks, I am personally prosecuted for espionage, conspiracy, theft or compromise of confidential US government information and computer violations, risking life imprisonment or worse”.

Fury As Cost Of Policing Julian Assange's Ecuador Embassy Hideaway Soars Past £10MILLION

By Livi Winchester, Feb. 5, 2015, Express.co.uk

It is now believed the cost of policing the Embassy has now soared past £10million, it emerged today.

Metropolitan Police officers have been standing outside the building in Knightsbridge, west London, since Mr Assange took shelter there in June 2012.

Police are forced to patrol the outside of the Embassy in case he steps foot on British soil, in which case he would be arrested.

Scotland Yard spent £9million on policing the building to the end of October, according to figures released in a Freedom of Information request from LBC Radio.

Mr Assange has been holed up in the Embassy for a further 96 days since these figures were released - meaning that the actual total amount spent by the force today has passed the £10million mark, or roughly £10,500 a day.
