TL;DR Summary

Julian Assange's wife, Stella Assange, expresses concern over his physical and mental state, stating that he would not survive extradition from the UK to the US where he faces up to 175 years in prison on espionage charges. His final appeal will be heard at the High Court, and if he loses, there may be no further appeal in this jurisdiction. Stella Assange suggests the possibility of applying to the European Court of Human Rights for an emergency injunction. Stress from the case has severely impacted Julian Assange's health, and Australia's parliament has urged the US and UK to release him ahead of the crucial hearing.
