> Thing is, he damaged himself by choosing to spend nearly a decade in isolation.
He always argued that he would not receive fair treatment if he submitted himself to authorities, especially as they would give him no assurance about not handing him over to the US (this is before the US officially started proceedings against him).
> We haven't done anything to him other than expect him to submit to due process as a citizen like any other.
But the International Bar Association say that he is not getting due process. Which rather confirms his original fears. The article here quotes IBAHRI Co-Chair, Anne Ramberg: "With this extradition trial we are witnessing the serious undermining of due process and the rule of law."
