British police said on Tuesday they had arrested Julian
Assange, the beleaguered founder of the WikiLeaks
anti-secrecy group, on a warrant issued in Sweden in
connection with alleged sex offenses.
Mr. Assange, a 39-year-old Australian, was arrested by
officers from Scotland Yard when he went to a central London
police station by prior agreement with the authorities, the
police said. A court hearing was expected later.
The widely anticipated arrested came after Mr. Assange, who
denies the charges of sexual misconduct said to have been
committed while he was in Sweden in August, threatened to
release many more diplomatic cables if legal action is taken
against him or his organization.
it is so sad that he arrested :(
