Julian Assange is not currently detained at all.
Assange has “taken refuge” in a foreign embassy.
The idea that embassies are “foreign soil” is a myth. Julian could be arrested and deported to Sweden any time the UK authorities choose.
Julian may or may not be guilty of “rape” (in Swedish terms) but he is certainly guilty of taking your anonymous and freely given Wikileaks whistle information and selling it to the highest bidder. This is possibly why Bradley (possibly) will be in jail for ever.
