Judge says Wikileaks'Assange can be extradited to Sweden

A British judge has approved the extradition of Wikileaks' Julian Assange to Sweden to face rape claims. The decision by Judge Howard Riddle at Belmarsh Magistrates Court was unlikely to be the final word, with the losing party expected to lodge an appeal which would postpone Assange's ultimate fate for many months.
The white-haired former computer hacker was arrested on December 7 after handing himself in to police and was and held in London's Wandsworth prison for nine days until he was released on bail.
