Boon to Mr.Donald J Trump - Julian Assange claims his next release will ensure Hillary Clinton is arrested - Swedish prosecutor drops rape investigation of Julian Assange

Swedish prosecutor drops rape investigation of Julian Assange

The Swedish Prosecution Authority said in a statement that Marianne Ny 'has decided to discontinue the investigation.'Sweden's top prosecutor says she is dropping an investigation into a rape claim against WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange after almost seven years.

The Swedish Prosecution Authority said in a statement on Friday that Marianne Ny "has decided to discontinue the investigation."
Assange took refuge in Ecuador's embassy in London in 2012 to escape extradition to Sweden to answer questions about sex-crime allegations from two women. He has been there ever since, fearing that if he is arrested he might ultimately be extradited to the United States.
UK police has said that Julian Assange will be arrested if he leaves the Ecuadorean embassy in London.
Friday's announcement means Assange is no longer under any investigation in Sweden. British police said before the announcement that Assange is still wanted in Britain for jumping bail. It is not clear if that may change now that the investigation has been dropped.
