Hundreds of people took to the streets around Australia for Human Rights Day and to protest the persecution of Wikileaks editor Julian Assange and the attempts at suppression of the Wikileaks website.

More rallies are scheduled around the world in December and January. Activists in Australia have setup the www.rally4wikileaks.com website to mobilise global support of wikileaks or visit the Justice for Assange site. You can do your own report on the leaked cables by checking one of the thousand (and growing) wikileak mirrors and do a report for Operation Leakspin.

Statement - The Australian and Melbourne Indymedia Collective stand in solidarity with Wikileaks and its spokesperson Julian Assange and condemn their unprecedented persecution. Donate to Indymedia

Efforts stepped up to persecute and arrest Julian Assange

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on Wed, 01/12/2010 - 6:25pm

Two days after Wikileaks released thousands of embarrassing U.S. secret diplomatic cables, Interpol has had added Julian Assange to its "most wanted" list. The timing is supposedly coincidental as the "red notice" is supposedly about him be being wanted for questioning in Sweden over rape charges. These rape charges themselves arose two days before Assange's application for citizenship were rejected in Sweden, which would have given him protection as a whistleblower under Swedish laws.
