Stella Assange expresses gratitude to those who advocated her husband’s return to Australia

  • yesterday
After more than a decade of confinement, WikiLeaks founder, Julian Assange, is spending his first day as a free man in Australia. He touched down in Canberra last night after appearing in court in a US territory, pleading guilty to an espionage charge, in return for being sentenced to time already served. Julian Assage was greeted by his wife Stella and his father John Shipton on the tarmac, after jetting halfway around the world to end his long-running fight against incarceration in the United States. Speaking with Julian Assange's lawyers and members of Parliament, Stella Assange again thanked those who made her husband's return possible.
