Umsunguli we-WikiLeaks u-Assange uboshwe eLondon ngemuva kwesivumelwano sokukhoseliswa kwezimbazo e-Ecuador

Umsunguli weWikiLeaks uJulian Assange udonswe ngaphandle kweNxusa lase-Ecuador eLondon lapho echithe khona iminyaka eyisikhombisa edlule. Lokho kungemuva kokuthi umongameli wase-Ecuador u-Moreno ehoxise indawo yokukhosela.

Lolo usuku nje ngemva kokuba uMhleli Omkhulu we-WikiLeaks u-Kristinn Hrafnsson eveze ukuthi kwenziwa umsebenzi omkhulu wobunhloli ngokumelene no-Assange eNxusa lase-Ecuadorian. Ngesikhathi kuqhubeka ingqungquthela yabezindaba uHrafnsson wasola ukuthi lo msebenzi wawudalelwe ukuthi u-Assange akhishwe.

Ubudlelwano buka-Assange nezikhulu zase-Ecuador bubukeka buba muncu kusukela umongameli wamanje ethatha izintambo zokubusa ezweni laseLatin America ngo-2017. Ukuxhumana kwakhe ku-inthanethi kwanqanyulwa ngoMashi wangonyaka odlule, izikhulu zathi lesi sinyathelo bekuwukumisa u-Assange “ukuba agxambukele ezindabeni. yezinye izifundazwe ezizimele.”

U-Assange wathola ukunakwa okukhulu emhlabeni wonke ngo-2010 ngenkathi i-WikiLeaks ikhipha izithombe zezempi zase-US ezihlukanisiwe.

Izithombe, kanye nezingodo zempi zase-US ezivela e-Iraq nase-Afghanistan kanye nezintambo zezokuxhumana ezingaphezu kuka-200,000, ziputshuzelwe endaweni yisosha Lezempi YaseMelika u-Chelsea Manning. Waquliswa icala yinkantolo yaseMelika futhi wagwetshwa iminyaka engu-35 ebhadla ejele ngokudalula izincwadi.

UManning waxolelwa nguMongameli ophumayo uBarack Obama ngo-2017 ngemuva kokuchitha iminyaka eyisikhombisa esitokisini saseMelika. Njengamanje uboshelwe futhi ejele laseMelika ngokwenqaba ukwethula ubufakazi phambi kwejaji eliyimfihlo ecaleni okusobala ukuthi lihlobene ne-WikiLeaks.

Ukuhlala kuka-Assange iminyaka eyisikhombisa eNxusa lase-Ecuador kugqugquzelwe ukukhathazeka kwakhe ngokuthi angase abhekane nokushushiswa kanzima okufanayo yi-US ngeqhaza lakhe ekushicileleni inqwaba yemibhalo yaseMelika eyimfihlo eminyakeni edlule.

Izinkinga zakhe ezingokomthetho zisuka ekumangaleleni abesifazane ababili baseSweden, bobabili bethi baba nocansi no-Assange ababengavumelananga ngokugcwele. U-Assange uthe zingamanga lezi zinsolo. Noma kunjalo, bavumela iziphathimandla zaseSweden ezazifuna akhishwe e-UK "ngezinsolo zokudlwengula, amacala amathathu okunukubeza ngokocansi kanye nokuphoqwa okungekho emthethweni."

NgoZibandlela wezi-2010, waboshwa e-UK ngaphansi kwe-European Arrest Warrant futhi wachitha isikhathi ejele laseWandsworth ngaphambi kokuba adedelwe ngebheyili futhi wavalelwa endlini.

Umzamo wakhe wokulwa nokukhishwa kwe-extradition ekugcineni wehlulekile. Ngo-2012, weqa ibheyili wabalekela eNxusa lase-Ecuadorian, elamelula ukuvikelwa ekuboshweni yiziphathimandla zaseBrithani. UQuito wamnika ukukhoseliswa kwezombusazwe futhi kamuva waba yisakhamuzi sase-Ecuadorian.

U-Assange uchithe iminyaka elandelayo evaleleke esikhungweni sezikhulu, evele nje ngezikhathi ezithile efasiteleni lenxusa nasezingxoxweni ezenziwa ngaphakathi.

U-Assange waveza ukuthi ukugwema kwakhe umthetho waseYurophu kwakudingeka ukuze amvikele ekubuyiselweni kwakhe e-US, lapho owayenguMmeli Jikelele ngaleso sikhathi uJeff Sessions ethi ukumbopha "kuyizinto eziza kuqala." I-WikiLeaks yabizwa ngokuthi "insiza yezobunhloli engeyona yezwe" yinhloko ye-CIA uMike Pompeo ngo-2017.

Uhulumeni wase-US awukaze ubambe umlomo ngokuthi u-Assange uzobhekana yini necala ngokusatshalaliswa kwezinto eziyimfihlo. NgoNovemba 2018, ukuba khona kwecala eliyimfihlo elibhekiswe ku-Assange kwabonakala kungaqinisekiswanga ngokungenhloso enkantolo yase-US efaka icala elingahlobene.

I-WikiLeaks inesibopho sokushicilela izinkulungwane zemibhalo enolwazi olubucayi oluvela emazweni amaningi. Lokho kufaka imanuwali ye-Standard Operating Procedures yango-2003 yase-Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. Le nhlangano iphinde yakhipha imibhalo yeScientology, ingxenye eyodwa ebizwa ngokuthi “amabhayibheli ayimfihlo” enkolweni eyasungulwa nguL. Ron Hubbard.
