Assange's Thousand Days: 'Careless crackdown on whistleblowers won't stop'





Monday marks one thousand days of confinement for WikiLeaks editor Julian Assange, most of it under house arrest. But since June 2012 the whistleblower has been holed up in London's Ecuadorian embassy attempting to avoid extradition to Sweden where's he's wanted on sex crime allegations. Assange fears should he step out of the embassy he will be arrested, and ultimately handed over to the U.S. to face life imprisonment. Wikileaks spokesperson Christian Hraffnson told RT why they're so worried.
