In relation to Assange in the United States issued a new indictment

A new indictment has been issued against the founder of the organization, WikiLeaks Julian Assange, in the United States. This was announced on June 24 by the press service of the US Department of Justice. The new indictment does not include additional charges to the earlier 18-count indictment filed against Assange in May 2019. However, it expands the scope of collusion around the alleged hacking of computers in which Assange was accused earlier, according to a published document. The press release says, among other things, about Assange's alleged connections with the hacker LulzSec from the Anonymous group. According to the news agency, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova called unacceptable the situation when journalist Julian Assange is kept in prison, and at the height of the coronavirus epidemic. Recall that in 2020, a British court began to consider the case of Assange, whose extradition from the UK is sought by the United States.
