Alicia Vikander is on the red carpet at "TIFF" talking to us about her fascinating role in "The Fifth Estate", which is the "Wikileaks" film story of controversial journalist Julian Assange.
Stella Moris arrives at Belmarsh jail for her marriage to Wikileaks founder Julian Assange. Wearing a white wedding dress designed by Vivienne Westwood, Moris is joined by her two children and family members. Assange, 50, is fighting attempts to remove him from Britain to face trial in the United States over the publication of secret files relating to the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. IMAGES
WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange will find out Monday whether he can be extradited from the UK to the US. Should the extradition be approved, Assange would face espionage charges over the publication of secret American military documents. But according to Newser, whichever side loses is expected to appeal, which could lead to years more legal wrangling. Stella Moris is Assange's partner and the mother of his two sons. She's appealed to President Trump via Twitter to grant a pardon to Assange before he leaves office. Lawyers for the US government said in their hearing in the fall that Assange's defense team had raised issues that were neither relevant nor admissible.
Julian Assange's partner Stella Moris says 'today is a victory for Julian' and a 'first step towards justice' but adds that she is 'extremely concerned that the US government has decided to appeal this decision'. SOUNDBITE
