No diplomatic immunity for Assange
BRITAIN’S Foreign Office turned down Ecuador’s request to grant Wikileaks founder Julian Assange diplomatic immunity today.
Ecuador, which granted citizenship to Mr Assange yesterday, had asked for him to be granted the status in an effort to end his six-year asylum at its London embassy.
Ecuador’s Foreign Ministry has given Mr Assange Ecuadorean citizenship and an ID number for Pichincha province, home to the capital Quito.
