More than 60 doctors have written an open letter saying they fear Julian Assange’s health is so bad that the WikiLeaks founder could die inside a top-security British jail.
The 48-year-old Australian is still fighting a US bid to extradite him from Britain on charges filed under the Espionage Act that could see him given a sentence of up to 175 years in a US prison.
In the letter to the British home secretary, Priti Patel, the doctors called for Assange to be moved from Belmarsh prison in southeast London to a university teaching hospital.
They based their assessment on “harrowing eyewitness accounts” of his 21 October court appearance in London and a 1 November report by Nils Melzer, the United Nations special rapporteur on torture.
Julian Assange to remain in jail pending extradition to US Read more The independent UN rights expert said Assange’s “continued exposure to arbitrariness and abuse may soon end up costing his life”.
Assange used WikiLeaks to publish classified military and diplomatic files in 2010 about US bombing campaigns in Afghanistan and Iraq that proved highly embarrassing to Washington.
“We write this open letter, as medical doctors, to express our serious concerns about the physical and mental health of Julian Assange,” the doctors said in their 16-page open letter.
They said they had “concerns about Mr Assange’s fitness” to go through the full extradition hearing, which is set for February.
“Mr Assange requires urgent expert medical assessment of both his physical and psychological state of health,” the wrote.
“Any medical treatment indicated should be administered in a properly equipped and expertly staffed university teaching hospital (tertiary care).
“Were such urgent assessment and treatment not to take place, we have real concerns, on the evidence currently available, that Mr Assange could die in prison.”

Your concern applies to psychogists and their code requiring personal interview prior to making a formal diagnosis. I have read several interviews making the same claim. He is in absolute solitary permanently. His treatment is capricious and arbitrary. According to those who have seen him he is in an advanced state of deterioration, physically, emotionally, and intellectually.
RE: Someone wrote about a visit with him just a while back. It seems that Julian is very malnourished and mistreated
I would expect this to happen in an Iranian jail, but this is supposed to be the UK we’re talking about.
What- they did a poll????
Let him speak live on camera...!!!!!
After Epstein I don’t believe #$#@ from these people...
How soon will he be Arkancided?
60 doctors , did Obama give out White Lab Coats again ,LOL
Bet he has a serious lack of Vitamin D.
Tucker had a good segment last Spring...
He’s transforming into a Troll
Jim McDougal?
Yep. This one is by design. You can bet your ass that this one is being played out just the way it was designed.
That’s who I found. It was hard to track down because so many of the Clinton’s friends have died in suspicious circumstances.
Just like Eptstein died. Probably the same guards watching over him.
The 60 doctors also added that they are totally saying this voluntarily under no duress and that Assange didn’t threaten to reveal all the dirty secrets that were found on their email and social media accounts on wikileaks if they didn’t comply.
Simple answer: Have AG Barr cite humanitarian concerns for dismissing the US charges; extradite Assange to give him first-class medical care; give him top notch private security; (willing) subpoena him for the upcoming Podesta-Clinton-Obama trials; put those bastards and others in the Manafort-like prison cells and give Assange the Presidential Medal Of Freedom.
Demolish the atheistic MLK Washington Mall statue and erect a lifelike bronze statue with religious quotes.
I thought the top bunk was only 4 feet off of the floor.
... and what did they have their doctor degrees in? political science, sociology, gender studies...... etc.
*** “Another Clinton murder by proxy” ***
Does Julian have a Dead Man switch that hasn’t been compromised?
They (Clinton’s) might want to keep him just barely alive... I don’t think there is a LOW that the Clinton Foundation is not willing to exceed.
*** “Yes, he could die of Foster-Epstein Syndrome.
It’s 100% fatal....................” ***
At this stage it would be barely a Blip on the Clinton Arkincide Record.
Even if he is in perfect health, he will likely die in prison....
And thats the way “They” want it, before he ever testifies in any public trial.
The parallels to Epstein are extremely close.
Heck if all them psychoticanalysts can deem President Trump as having “issues” (Hmmmm - just like some of our own concern trolls), then surely the other doctors can give solace to Hillary and company....
