WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange will find out Wednesday whether he will be extradited to Sweden to face questioning on sexual misconduct allegations. U.K. appeals court judges Lord Justice Thomas and Justice Ouseley will give their decision at 5:45 a.m. ET, according to a statement released over the weekend. If the court rules in his favor, Assange can expect to go free after living for months under strict bail conditions, including house arrest. A "Free Assange" rally is planned for Wednesday outside the Royal Courts of Justice in London. Assange, an Australian, decided to fight the case at London's High Court after a judge at Belmarsh Magistrates' Court ruled in February that the WikiLeaks head should be extradited. Although Assange has not been charged with a crime, Swedish prosecutors want to question him in connection with sexual misconduct allegations related to separate incidents in August 2010. Assange denies the accusations, saying they are an attempt to smear him, and says it would be unfair to send him to a country where the language and legal system are alien to him. His attorneys have fought his extradition on procedural and human-rights grounds. Assange's lawyers have suggested that Sweden would hand him over to the United States if Britain extradites him. The prosecutor representing Sweden has dismissed that claim. The extradition case is not linked to his work as founder and editor-in-chief of WikiLeaks, which has put him on the wrong side of the U.S. authorities. His organization, which facilitates the anonymous leaking of secret information, has published some 250,000 confidential U.S. diplomatic cables in the past year, causing embarrassment to the government and others. It has also published hundreds of thousands of classified U.S. documents relating to the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan. But the organization has come under increasing financial pressure in recent months, leading Assange to announce last week that WikiLeaks was temporarily stopping publication to "aggressively fundraise" in order to stay afloat. A financial blockade by Bank of America, VISA, MasterCard, PayPal and Western Union has destroyed 95% of WikiLeaks' revenue, Assange said. Many financial institutions stopped doing business with the site after it released the U.S. diplomatic cables late last year, and donations have been stymied. U.S. authorities have said disclosing the classified information was illegal and caused risks to individuals and national security.
