AFP, LONDON: Julian Assange should leave the Ecuadoran embassy in London and bring to an end the “whole sorry saga”, British Prime Minister David Cameron told parliament on Wednesday.
WikiLeaks founder Assange faces a rape allegation in Sweden but has been inside Quito’s mission for more than three and a half years in a bid to avoid extradition.
The 44-year-old Australian fears deportation from Sweden to the United States over WikiLeaks’ release of 500,000 secret military files.
A United Nations panel last week found the anti-secrecy campaigner had been arbitrarily detained by Britain and Sweden.
“I think this was a ridiculous decision,” Cameron said in the lower House of Commons.
“You’ve got a man here with an outstanding alleg ation of rape against him.
