Julian Assange, Wikileaks founder Marries in High Security Prison #IndiaNEWSAll #International
On Wednesday, WikiLeaks co-founder Julian Assange and his fiancée Stella Moris married in a small ceremony attended by six guests at the Belmarsh high-security prison in London. Julian Assange continues to battle against his impending extradition to the US.
Four guests and two witnesses were allowed to attend the ceremony, but no journalists or photographer.
The 38-year-old lawyer Moris arrived in prison wearing a striking silver dress designed by Vivienne Westwood —a supporter of the Australian activist’s cause— and a long veil with embroidered protest words.
She was only accompanied by her mother, brother-in-law, father-in-law, and two sons of two and four years old due to the restrictions on the number of attendees imposed by the prison management.
Last week the UKs Supreme Court turned down an appeal request, all but consigning Assange to a trial in America over his explosive journalism that blew open alleged US crimes. The decision now comes down to UK Home Sec. Priti Patel.
The children, who were born when the Australian activist was a refugee in the Ecuadorian embassy in London, attended the ceremony wearing Scottish skirts to honor the origins of their family on their father’s side.
Outside the jail, Assanges supporters gathered to show their support to the couple and celebrate the day with champagne and cake. Assange is the most incredible person I know. What we are going through is inhuman, but our love will sustain us,” Morris said in tears.

The United States accuses the Australian activist of 18 espionage charges over WikiLeakss publication of the American military wrongdoing in the Iraq y Afghanistan wars. On March 14, the British Supreme Court denied permission for their lawyers to appeal the London High Court decision to extradite him to that country.

However, their lawyers still have the right to present their arguments before British Interior Minister Priti Patel before she rules on his extradition within three weeks. If Assange is finally extradited, he could face up to 175 years in prison.
