WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has received permission from the UK prosecutor’s office to marry his fiancée Stella Morris in Belmarsh maximum security prison. This was reported on November 11 by the edition The sun…
It is noted that the ceremony could take place in December 2021 and is likely to take place in the prison chapel, since “both Assange and a South African lawyer, 38-year-old Morris, are practicing Catholics.”
The payment for the wedding, according to the sources of the publication, will fall on the shoulders of the newlyweds. According to available information, it will be allowed to invite guests from among the prisoners to the wedding, including two witnesses.
Assange and Morris are seeking the opportunity to host the wedding from May 2021. They have been together for about five years, they have two children together.
On November 7, Julian Assange, his fiancée Stella Morris, filed a lawsuit against the head of the UK Justice Department for not allowing the couple to get married. It was noted that, according to the couple, the British authorities are obstructing their marriage in connection with the US political war against the founder of WikiLeaks.
On October 26, a disclosure material was published, which revealed the CIA’s plans to kill Assange.
On October 25, the editor-in-chief of WikiLeaks Kristinn Hrafnsson said that if released from a British prison, Julian Assange could ask for asylum in Russia, but it is too early to talk about this, since the United States wants to extradite Assange.
Assange is in UK custody. In the United States, he is accused of promulgating top-secret documents, for which he faces up to 175 years in prison. In the UK on January 4, a court ruled not to extradite Assange to the United States because of his suicidal tendencies and risk to life. In Ecuador, in the embassy of which he was hiding earlier, Assange was deprived of his citizenship.
