Legal team balks as Assange law enforcement official's report leaked out to UK press

WikiLeaks inventor Julian Assange may be out on bail currently, but that does not mean his legal team is pleased. Julian Assange’s law enforcement officials report has leaked out to the media, and the British paper The Guardian was pleased to print the alleged information. Based on reports, not simply was the report intended to be confidential, but the sexually graphic information released are apparently incriminating against Assange.

All about the Julian Assange law enforcement officials statement

Julian Assange's camp is working to make sure free data and transparency are available when releasing confidential intelligence cables. The legal team does not think that a turnabout has occurred with the recent law enforcement official’s report that was allegedly leaked.

Julian Assange has a Swedish lawyer named Bjorn Hurtig. He plans on filing a complaint formally because of the leaked out law enforcement officials report.

"It is with great concern that I hear about this because it puts Julian and his defense in a bad position,” Hurtig said.

Trial due to the press

Jemina Khan, Michael Moore and Bianca Jagger were all those who helped pay the £275,000 ($432,305) bail by super star backers for Assange. Nevertheless, sexual assault charges still face Assange in Sweden. The 39 year old journalist can be judged harshly by the media for the Assange law enforcement official’s statement that was leaked. This caused many to suggest a "smear campaign" was the purpose of the statement getting released.

Julian Assange's legal team is saying that someone is intending to convict Assange in the court of public opinion although the Guardian is saying it’s just a "brief summary" of Julian Assange's sex allegations.

The conspiracy with Swedish and Americans supposedly

Julian Assange maintains that since the information surrounding his sexual assault states came to light, Sweden and the United States have been working together in a conspiracy theory to punish him for the release of various sensitive United States intelligence cables. Getting Assange extradited and tried on U.S. treason laws probably will not take place as Assange's lawyer Mark Stephens is sure that the lawful team can prevent it. Because Julian Assange isn’t a U.S. citizen – he’s Australian – such a turn of events would be a stretch. Furthermore, as Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard recently made the pronouncement that Assange had broken no Australian laws, it will be interesting to see how far the U.S. may go to trigger an international rift.
