Melbourne rally in support of Julian Assange

Date and Time: 
Thu, 31/05/2012 - 12:00pm - 6:00pm
Location: 
Department of Foreign Affairs & Trade Victorian Head Office at Casselden Place, 2 Lonsdale Street (corner of Spring Street)

Next Wednesday the European supreme court will finally deliver its verdict on whether Wikileaks founder Julian Assange - who has now been detained under house arrest for over 500 days without any charge - should be extradited to Sweden to face allegations of rape and sexual assault.

Melbourne is Julian's home town - and as Australians, we are the only citizenry that can demand their government protect him.

Whatever the verdict, meet at the Department of Foreign Affairs & Trade Victorian Head Office at Casselden Place, 2 Lonsdale Street (corner of Spring Street) on Thursday and demand that the Australian Federal Government act to ensure justice for Assange.
