They trumped up fake rape case in order for him to be brought to Sweden when they would extradited him to us.
Rape is serious accusation, but if you look at this case you can clearly see she got paid to go to court. They had sex, he left the sweeden and months after that she changed her mind and decided it was a rape.
- sneak 5y agoNobody in Sweden accused him of rape. Please read the direct statements of the women involved.
- ben_w 5y agoThe closest I have to the original statements are reports in newspapers such as the following. At the very least the acts described here seem to me to be in violation of either section 1 or 2 of the Sexual Offences Act 2003 (I don’t understand the difference) by the standard of section 75.2.d (being asleep). IIRC this is basically why the UK judge agreed to the extradition to Sweden, as I think extradition generally needs the act to be an offence in both places? Though I may have misunderstood that. https://www.theguardian.com/media/2010/dec/17/julian-assange-sweden https://www.theguardian.com/media/2010/dec/17/julian-assange...

- simiones 5y agoTo clarify a little bit: according to the UN special rapporteur, the two women whom he supposedly rape did indeed NOT accuse him of rape - it was Swedish authorities that extended their request (forcing him to undergo an HIV test) to charges of rape. I believe this is what GP is referring to.
