US Justice Department accidentally reveal they have begun prosecuting Julian Assange

World

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has been charged in America, the US Justice Department has accidentally revealed.

Prosecutors inadvertently disclosed the existence of a sealed indictment in a court filing in an unrelated case, WikiLeaks said today.

The exact nature of the charges against the 47-year-old whistleblower, who was behind a massive dump of classified US documents in 2010, was not immediately known.  

Assange has been holed up inside the Ecuadorian embassy in London since 2012 when he was accused of sexual assault by two women in Sweden. He denied their claims but refused to travel to Sweden to face them, saying it was part of a ruse to extradite him to the US.
