[HIGHLIGHTS] British justice will make a crucial decision on the extradition of Julian Assange

British justice will make a crucial decision on the extradition of Julian Assange. British justice must decide Tuesday morning whether or not to grant former WikiLeaks boss Julian Assange the right to appeal his extradition to the United States.

American justice is prosecuting Julian Assange for having published since 2010 more than 700,000 confidential documents on American military and diplomatic activities. In recent weeks, those close to Julian Assange, detained for five years in the high security Belmarsh prison in London, have warned of the deterioration of his state of health.
