- sorenjan 10y agoThe questions are asked by an Ecuadorian prosecutor and was supplied by Swedish prosecutors earlier. The Swedish prosecutor and a Swedish police is present at the hearing and is allowed to ask Assange to clarify his answers but not to ask any new ones. A DNA sample will be taken if Assange agrees to it. Ecuador has not permitted Assange's lawyer to be present against Asssange's wishes. Who knew Ecuador wasn't an ideal country for human rights? Is it possibly even worse than Great Britain and Sweden? https://www.theguardian.com/media/2016/nov/14/julian-assange-to-face-swedish-prosecutors-over-accusation https://www.theguardian.com/media/2016/nov/14/julian-assange... https://www.aklagare.se/nyheter-press/pressmeddelanden/?newsId=C04E8A0A2B026877 https://www.aklagare.se/nyheter-press/pressmeddelanden/?news...
