The high court has ruled that the WikiLeaks co-founder Julian Assange can be extradited to the US, overruling a previous judgment that allowed him to stay in the UK.
In the ruling, senior judges stated they sided with the US authorities after a near-unprecedented package of assurances was put forward that Assange would not face the strictest measures either pre-trial or post-conviction unless he committed an act in the future that required them.

Stella Moris, Assange's fiancee, reiterated that the high court had accepted the conclusion of the magistrate that if Assange is extradited and placed in self-isolation in the US, it would drive him to take his own life
