UK judge grants bail to WikiLeaks' Julian Assange
None
Julian Assange will be freed on bail and sent to stay at a British country mansion, a UK judge ruled Thursday, rejecting prosecutors' attempts to keep the WikiLeaks founder in prison as he fights extradition to Sweden.
Cheers erupted from supporters outside the London court as the verdict by High Court justice Duncan Ouseley was reported. Assange's lawyer, Mark Stephens, said he was "utterly delighted" with the judge's ruling, which included an order that prosecutors pay his client's court costs. (AP)
