The founder of WikiLeaks Julian Assange waves to supporters as he leaves after speaking to the media after his extradition hearing at Belmarsh Magistrates' Court in London, Thursday, Feb. 24, 2011. Julian Assange can be extradited to Sweden in a sex crimes inquiry, a British judge ruled Thursday, rejecting claims by the WikiLeaks founder that he would not face a fair trial there. Assange's lawyer said he would appeal. Judge Howard Riddle said the allegations of rape and sexual molestation by two women against Assange  meet the definition of extraditable offenses and said the Swedish warrant had been properly issued and was valid.
