its working in deciding he's been 'arbitrarily detained' and is basically a faceless kangaroo court. Also, since it is specifically set up to be a working group on arbitrary detentions, guess what? It tends to decide if asked that people are being arbitrarily detained. Big shock there.

The facts are these:

1/ Assange has not been detained. Instead he has chosen to detain himself in the Ecuadorian embassy in order to evade lawful arrest and extradition proceedings.

2/ The extradition order to which he is subject is entirely lawful under the terms of the European Arrest Warrant and involves extradition to a liberal, democratic country with an excellent human rights record.

As far as I can see, there is absolutely no justification whatsoever for this finding. It's simply an overtly political attempt to subvert British and European rule of law.
