(Reuters) - The mother of Australian WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange said on Wednesday she was distressed by an international police alert for her son's arrest and did not want him "hunted down and jailed."
Global police agency Interpol issued a "red notice" on Tuesday to assist in the arrest of Assange, founder of the whistle-blowing website WikiLeaks, who is wanted in Sweden on suspicion of sexual crimes.
Assange, 39, a former computer hacker now at the center of a global controversy after WikiLeaks released a trove of classified U.S. diplomatic cables at the weekend, denies the Swedish allegations.
Christine Assange, who runs a puppet theater in Australia's Queensland state, said she was worried about her son's wellbeing as Australia's government joined the United States in launching an investigation into whether Assange and WikiLeaks had broken security or criminal laws.
"He's my son and I love him and obviously I don't want him hunted down and jailed. I'm reacting as any mother would. I'm distressed," she told Australian radio. "A lot of stuff that's written about me and Julian is untrue."
Assange, who was born in Townsville, Queensland has gone underground since WikiLeaks controversially began publishing more than 250,000 secret U.S. government documents.
Assange's arrest warrant was issued by Sweden's International Public Prosecution Office in Gothenburg on November 18.

Maybe his Momma should have raised him better.
He evil, a rapist and a murderer, who is destroying things for the sake of destruction. Not only does this monster need to be hunted down, but this mother is the biggest failure as a parent since Barack Obama’s parents spectacularly failed.
Earlier this month, Assange, from Melbourne, was facing charges of rape and molestation over a recent trip to Stockholm, Sweden. The rape charges have since been dropped by Swedish prosecutors but the molestation accusation is still outstanding.
British newspaper the Daily Mail has obtained a copy of the police statements made by the two women at the centre of the claims. These indicate that Assange had consensual sex with the women but was reported to police after he refused to use a condom or, later, take an STD test.
One, Anna Ardin, who helped bring Assange to Sweden for a speaking engagement, allegedly let Assange stay in her one-bedroom flat in Stockholm. They went out to dinner and, according to a “police source” quoted in the Daily Mail, “when they got back they had sexual relations, but there was a problem with the condom - it had split”.
I know I will be flamed for saying this, BUT this turd has endangered ALL of our children and grand children’s future lives, SO in return ALL of his family lives SHOULD also be endangered (if you know what I mean)!! Fair is fair in WAR!!! This a$$hole needs to cry uncle at some point!

And that's the only comments I can put in a public message right now. Thanks bjorn14.
When a mother raises up evil, Society will do what it must do.
