“WikiLeaks”
Wikileaks was founded in 2006. Assange is one of the nine members of the board of directors and is also the press spokesperson. Although the newspapers described him as (manager) or (founder) of Wikileaks, Assange said (I don’t consider myself a founder, I am just an editor). The final word and approval in the documents to be uploaded to the site is Assange. Like all other site employees, Assange works voluntarily and free of charge for the site.
WikiLeaks, which he founded, published documents on the rules on the treatment of prisoners at the American base Guantanamo in Cuba, the extrajudicial executions in Kenya, and the deaths of civilians in the War in Afghanistan and Iraq.
The documents released to the public on the WikiLeaks website towards the end of November 2010 had a great impact, and a smear campaign was launched against Assange.

“Sexual harassment investigation”
The prosecutor’s office in Sweden issued an international arrest warrant for Assange on November 18, 2010, on charges of sexual harassment. On December 7, 2010, he was arrested by Sweden at the police station in London, where he voluntarily went to testify about the rape allegations, on the grounds that he had an arrest warrant. He was released on parole at the hearing he held on December 14, 2010.
Claiming that he was under political prosecution under the guise of sexual harassment, Assange was at the Embassy of Ecuador in London since 19 June 2012, and his right of political asylum, which he requested as of 16 August 2012, was approved by the Ecuadorian government. Objecting to the decision, the British government formally warned the Ecuadorian government and announced that Assange would not be allowed to leave the country and would enter the embassy building if necessary. Ecuador has brought the issue to the agenda of regional organizations.
On May 19, 2017, Swedish attorney general Marianne Ny announced that her seven-year sexual harassment investigation had been dropped.
