Assange's last chance

Julian Assange has been in a high-security London prison for five years. Born in Australia, he is the founder of the online information platform Wikileaks and is said to have published American military secrets. He faces charges of espionage should he be extradited to the USA. This is now due to be decided by a British court next week. Dieter Herrmann, editor-in-chief of WEEK IN AUSTRALIA, explains what is at stake for Assange.
