Julian Assange May Surrender To British Police On Friday (twitter.com)

bestweasel writes: As reported by The Guardian and others, Julian Assange has announced via Wikileaks that: "Should the UN announce tomorrow that I have lost my case against the United Kingdom and Sweden, I shall exit the embassy at noon on Friday to accept arrest by British police as there is no meaningful prospect of further appeal. ... However, should I prevail and the state parties be found to have acted unlawfully, I expect the immediate return of my passport and the termination of further attempts to arrest me."

You do realize that no one in sweden is tried or even charged in absentia. You have to appear before a judge before charges can even be filed or dismissed.

I really wish idiots like you would stop thinking swedish law is the same as English common law.

Also Sweden doesn't have any laws to allow them to lend someone to another country. That goes against both Swedish law and EU law.
