“After spending millions to station officers for over 1,200 days on the off-chance that Julian Assange would step out of the Ecuadorian Embassy in London, the Metropolitan Police Service announced Monday that it would remove its constant overt presence outside the building. Assange has remained inside the embassy for over three years. Should he leave and be arrested, he would be extradited to Sweden and possibly onto the United States where he is likely being investigated (PDF) for possible crimes related to WikiLeaks. For now, Assange has not been formally charged with a crime in Sweden.”
