Assange visited by Australian officials

-

Wikileaks founder Julian Assange has been visited by officials from the Australian High Commission. Two officials went to the Ecuadorian Embassy in London, where Mr Assange has been living for almost six years, to visit the campaigner.

His internet and phone connection­s were cut off by the Ecuadorian government six weeks ago and he has been denied visitors.

The Australian-born campaigner fears being extradited to the US if he leaves the embassy.
