London: Julian Assange got a boost on Monday in his battle against extradition to Sweden from England. The Wikileaks founder Julian Assange has won the right to petition the British Supreme Court in his fight against extradition to Sweden.
He lost a high court battle last month to halt his removal for questioning over alleged sex offences and made the application to the Supreme Court.
Assange was at the London court for the ruling.
Judges said the case raised "a question of general public importance".
