Listen "#12 Gabriel Shipton - Fighting For His Brother Julian Assange"
Episode Synopsis
Julian Assange is an Australian citizen and the founder of whistleblower website WikiLeaks established in 2006.
Wikileaks' release in 2010 of leaked video from a United States helicopter showing an air strike that killed civilians in Baghdad, including two Reuters news staff, put Mr Assange on the world stage.
Between 2012 and 2019 Mr Assange was granted political asylum in the Ecuadorian Embassy in London, and since August 2019 has been held in a London prison, fighting extradition to the United States.
On this episode of BASED, I speak to Mr Assange’s brother, Gabriel Shipton about his brother’s life, political asylum, eventual imprisonment, what he faces should he be extradited to the United States and what that will mean for journalists around the world.
