- There appear to be some substantial leaks in the last week or two.

- And apprently Julian Assange recently released his statement
  "condemning the conduct of the case against him and trashing the
  allegations of rape of which he is accused"

Extract of article:
"
Firstly, the rush to judgment against Julian Assange on the part of some
people – casting aside any pretence of due process and of the
presumption of innocence and without having heard his side of the story
– has been nothing short of outrageous, and must unavoidably call into
question their motivations.

I have to say that I have also been dismayed at the readiness of some
people to assume Assange’s guilt simply because he has been accused of
rape without the full details of the case being known, and
notwithstanding that it is a crime for which – as he carefully points
out in his statement – he has never actually been charged.
...

Whatever one thinks of the case against Assange, in light of the
proceedings brought against him in the US he does have cause to fear
what might happen to him were he to go to Sweden.  It would have been
entirely proper in light of this to interview him in Britain.  Given
that there is ample precedent for doing it, and no conceivable reason
why it might prejudice the investigation, no remotely satisfactory
reason has ever been given of why it was not done.  The fact that it has
now been done moreover shows that it was always possible to do, and that
the Swedish prosecutor’s previous refusal to do it had no basis.
