Julian Assange,52,has struck a plea deal with the United States that is set to end a years-long legal pursuit. So what now?

Julian Assange has always polarised opinion. Now,for some,his plight has evoked a sense of pity.
Assange’s wife Stella,whom he married while in prison in London,said the guarantees did not satisfy their concerns,describing them as “blatant weasel words”.

Two High Court judges said on Tuesday that they would grant the Australian-born Assange a new appeal unless Washington authorities gave further assurances about what will happen to him.
