New York: Whistleblower Julian Assange is back in limelight again after US Department of Justice on Thursday issued a ‘superseding indictment’ against him.
However, reports say that new indictment contains no additional charges to those already filed in 2019.
The WikiLeaks founder leaked sensitive documents exposing historic war crimes in Iraq and Afghanistan, giving headache to USA.
The new indictment filed after Assenge was dragged by British police from Ecuador’s London embassy in April 2019 contains one charge of conspiracy to commit computer intrusion.
The move is an attempt to broaden the narrative that Assange is a “hacker,” not a publisher or journalist, reports say.Sourace: "https://english.madhyamam.com
