I'm not sure this is really news. The standard you would have to set for bailing Assange becaue of Coronavirus would mean practically everyone has a valid case for bail. I know that Assange's legal team has an absolutely exhaustive approach but this really didn't have a chance of succeeding.
- foxyv 7y agoI think that, even if they didn't expect a yes, this is mostly a way to give them ammo later on in the process. Make them say "No", then later on you can use the fact that they said "No" to claim they didn't follow due process. Especially if Assange ends up in the hospital with CV19. Then you can say, "See! They violated his rights!"
