The UK has signed an extradition plea for Julian Assange, the founder of WikiLeaks who has been facing trial in the US under the Espionage Act. On Wednesday, the UK Home Secretary Sajid Javid informed that he had signed his extradition papers and now he will be sent to the US. This comes after the US Justice Department formally asked Britain to extradite Julian. Now it will go in front of the courts tomorrow, Sajid said.
