Court filing to remove warrant, 24 June 2014

As a result of new information, on Tuesday 24th of June at 1pm CET, Julian Assange's lawyers will file a request to Stockholm District Court for the removal of the extradition request and the detention without charge, which have kept him in different forms of deprivation of liberty since 7 December 2010 (3.5 years).
Julian Assange's case is Sweden's longest running case of pre-trial, pre-charge deprivation of liberty. Julian Assange is in a legal no-man's-land: the investigation is at the 'preliminary' stage. Julian Assange has not been inicted so he cannot formally defend himself. The Swedish prosecutor refuses to question him in London, where the UK keeps 24 hour surveillance on the embassy at a cost to date of over GBP 6 million (see: http://govwaste.co.uk).
Assange obtained political asylum in relation to the United States criminal investigation against WikiLeaks in 2012. The United Kingdom and Sweden have both refused to give a guarantee that Julian Assange will not be extradited to the United States for his WikiLeaks activities. Earlier this week, 59 international organizations submitted complaints about the investigation against Julian Assange to the United Nations Human Rights Commission.
