2017-05-19 3

Sweden dropped its investigation into Wikileaks founder Julian Assange on rape allegations. Prosecutors concluded on Friday that all possibilities to conduct the investigation are “exhausted.” Sweden’s Director of Public Prosecutions Marianne Ny Assange was accused of rape in 2010 following a Wikileaks conference in Stockholm. He has been hiding in the Ecuadorian Embassy in London since 2012 to avoid arrest.
