KittyLeaks: Cat Joins Julian Assange on Asylum

As WikiLeaks founder, Julian Assange reaches the fourth anniversary of his asylum at the Ecuadorean embassy in London.

(Assange famously sought asylum in 2012 to avoid extradition to Sweden on rape charges and then to the United States for publishing secret documents.)

WikiLeaks said the kitten’s name would be chosen by the public and announced next month.
