WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has been accused of breaking his asylum terms at the Ecuadorean embassy in London, where he has sought refuge since 2012.
Ecuadorian President Lenin Moreno claims WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has"repeatedly violated" the terms of his asylum in the nation's London embassy, according to a local media interview.
"Mr. Assange has violated the agreement we reached with him and his legal counsel too many times," Moreno said in the interview in the city of Guayaquil. That probe was later dropped but Assange fears he could be extradited to face charges in the United States, where federal prosecutors are investigating WikiLeaks.
