The WikiLeaks founder has been given permission by the High Court in London to take his challenge against extradition to the US to another hearing.
The court ruled that Assange could pursue his appeal at a full hearing unless the US provided “satisfactory assurances” on the questions of whether he was able to rely on the First Amendment of the US Constitution and whether he could be subject to the death penalty.
