"Today Julian Assange walked out of the Federal Court Building in Saipan, North
Marianas Islands, a free man. He pleaded guilty to one count of breaching the
US Espionage Act.

With the court accepting his 62 months already spent in Belmarsh Prison as a
sufficient sentence, he has no more case to answer, and no more sentence to
serve.

However, this case leaves behind it a trail of unanswered legal questions and
unresolved controversies. In particular, there are questions of fundamental
human rights that can only now be addressed in future cases, if ever."
