Discontinued --twice-- AFAICT.  This will be the third "opening of
the same case" against Assange it seems, after he presented himself
personally to at least one Swedish police station whilst in Sweden,
on the first occasion, offered to have any number of recorded video
interviews --in the UK-- on the second occasion, and now he is at the
"mercy" of the UK's (and five eyes) "justice" systems.

Political every single step of the way...

And a pathetic in the extreme example of a dying empire flexing it's
"glorious" legal muscles against a single individual who tried, and
succeeded, to bring light to some dark corners of that empire.
