United States prosecutors will be allowed to 'help themselves' to the belongings of Julian Assange left behind in the Ecuadorian embassy in London after his arrest last month. The news of the 'illegal seizure' of Assange's personal property was reported by Wikileaks today. WikiLeaks said United Nations officials and Assange's lawyers were not being allowed to be present. 'Ecuador’s vile behaviour is not new as they have been sending information on Assange to the US for months.' Assange is serving a 50-week prison sentence for bail violations, he faces an extradition request from the US next month.
