Assange accuser flees to Middle East, may not be cooperating with police
Assange accuser flees to Middle East, may not be cooperating with police

One of the two Swedish women who have filed sex complaints against the founder of WikiLeaks has reportedly left Sweden and may no longer be cooperating with the criminal investigation.

According to a report at Australian news site Crikey.com, Anna Ardin has moved to the Palestinian territories to volunteer with a Christian group working to reconcile Arabs and Israelis.

Crikey.com reports:

One source from Ardin’s old university of Uppsala reported rumors that she had stopped co-operating with the prosecution service several weeks ago, and that this was part of the reason for the long delay in proceeding with charges — and what still appears to be an absence of charges.

Ardin's blog shows that she has recently posted from the Palestinian territories. Her most recent blog posts make no mention of WikiLeaks or its founder, Julian Assange.

Some of Ardin's most recent Tweets suggest sympathy for WikiLeaks.

7. She's not the (possible) CIA agent. The other woman convinced her to go to the police.
Maybe she realizes she was used by 'woman b'?

8. Nope, this is Anna Ardin, the one who does have (possible)
links to the CIA. The entire 'rape' story just gets more unbelievable every day.

10. Ah. Had them backwards
However, when I read the story of how 'woman b' showed up to volunteer at a talk Assange was giving - there was a real smell factor to it.

15. The real bullshit story here
is that an allegation of rape due to a broken condom could lead to the intervention of Interpol, the shutting down of all financial services available to the accused, and the indefinite detention of the accused without bail in a supposedly First World nation.
