UN Expert: Julian Assange Has Been Subjected To Psychological Torture

Fact checked

The UN special rapporteur on torture has claimed that Wikileaks founder Julian Assange has been subjected to psychological torture.

Nils Melzer spoke to a number of media outlets this week including RT, warning that Assange was showing clear signs of degrading and inhumane treatment which was adding to his already deteriorating health.

The UN expert said he assessed Assange’s condition from two decades of experience in working with POWs and political prisoners and that the journalist’s case still shocked him.

He accused “a group of democratic States” of “ganging up” on Assange to “isolate, demonize and abuse” him.

“An individual has been isolated and singled out by several democratic states, and persecuted systematically… to the point of breaking him.”

Melzer also recorded exclusive interviews with Sky News and the BBC….but they were never broadcast.

  1. Of course if Assange hadn’t tried to assault women, hadn’t jumped bail and hadn’t intentionally incarcerated himself in the Ecuadorean embassy, he wouldn’t be in the mental state that he is in now.

    Personally I would send the guy to somewhere quiet, like Guantanamo Bay for complete rest, together with the nitwit UN guy who wrote the claptrap so lovingly repeated above.

  2. Bamboo splinters under the fingernails. Now tell us, Mr Assange, where EXACTLY did you come by that information ? Don’t wanna talk ? Well, let’s see if this will help you remember . . .
    AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
