(CNN) WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange's lawsuit over new asylum conditions has been thrown out by an Ecuadorean judge, who said the country was "not violating his fundamental rights." Judge Karla Martinez said Monday that Assange would have to abide by the rules imposed by Ecuador's embassy in London. They include paying for his food, medical care and laundry, taking care of his cat, keeping the parts of the embassy he uses clean, and obtaining prior authorization for visitors. Ecuador's Foreign Ministry told CNN Assange's asylum status will continue as long as he respects the new requirements. Assange, 47, accused Ecuador of being in talks with the US and the UK and of attacking his character during a 20-minute video-link presentation to a court in the capital, Quito.
