Written by Marc Zanotti on 30th January, 2012

Moments ago Wikileaks tweeted a link to Sky News Supreme Court which will host a live stream of Julian Assange’s Swedish Supreme Court Hearing in two days.

According to swedenversusassange.com the Supreme Court Appeal Hearing starts at 10:30 on February 1, 2012.

The founder of Wikileaks, Assange stands accused of rape and sexual assault by two Swedish women following his visit to Stockholm in August 2010. After losing his appeal against extradition to Sweden, Assange will now face seven supreme court justices, which according to a report by UKs Guardian, reflects “the great public importance of the issue”.

Wikileaks has also posted via Twitter a link to an article by swedenversusassange.com which suggests that the Swedish Supreme Court has a history of convicting men for sex crimes they have not committed in word-against-word trials.
