Re: Wiki Leaks Founder Julian Assange granted 'Asylum' in Ecuador

They have heard his initial testimony. Anyone can deny something, if that denial cannot be properly tested and scrutinised and especially not be able to be acted upon(ie arrest). You can't expect the whole case of questioning and answers to be played out via the media.

He says that the allegations are politically motivated, but they were made by 2 of his supporters. Also if that was the case, they would have been made straight away after the first incident and not days later after the 2nd one. There may be disagreements about details of any events, but events took place and he took part. It is not a completely fictitious set of events being claimed.

He also said he was not challenging the fact they found his sexual behaviour "disreputable, discourteous, disturbing or even pushing towards the boundaries of what they were comfortable with".
If what he did was so above board and innocent, why make that statement?
