Stockholm: Swedish prosecutors said on Tuesday they have dropped their investigation into jailed WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange over a 2010 rape allegation, even though they found the plaintiff’s claim “credible”.
“My assessment is that all investigative measures that can be taken have been taken. But the evidence is not strong enough to file an indictment,” deputy director of public prosecutions Eva-Marie Persson told reporters.
“I have determined that it cannot be proven that a crime has been committed. But it would be totally wrong of me to say that it is the plaintiff’s fault,” Persson said. (AFP)
