Assange lawyer vows appeal to international courts
(MENAFN- Arab News) MADRID: WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange will appeal to international courts against an arrest warrant for alleged rape and sexual assault his Spanish lawyer said Tuesday.
Sweden's Supreme Court said Monday it had rejected an appeal by the Australian former hacker who has been taking refuge in Ecuador's embassy in London since 2012.
The prominent Spanish former human rights judge Baltasar Garzon a lead member of Assange's legal team said in a statement he would appeal to international justice arguing that Assange is being deprived of the right to a fair trial.
A source in Assange's legal team said they were examining which international courts they might appeal to.
Monday's ruling 'exhausts the judicial proceedings possible at national level so we will turn to international courts to safeguard his rights which have been seriously breached' Garzon said in a statement.
