LONDON: WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has appealed against Britain's Supreme Court’s decision to back his extradition to Sweden over alleged sex crimes.
Two weeks ago, judges at Britain's top court rejected his argument by a 5-2 majority that a European arrest warrant for his extradition was invalid, seemingly putting an end to an 18-month legal battle.
However, his lawyers argued that some of the judges had reached their decision based on a legal point that had not been argued in court, preventing the defence team from making a counter-submission.—Reuters
