    He will be issued a especial passport granting him immunity to travel to Ecuador.
    Anyway, there is a confirmation of the asylum, but also some doubts.

    I know that, I mean how did he get to the embassy. If he's about to be extradited, shouldn't he be under house arrest or something?

    EDIT: Nevermind, LD just answered my question.

    Yes, Sweden - the worst country in regards of human rights and judiciary system. Ecuador on other hand has no problems with something like that and reports by AI or HRW such as these

    http://www.amnestyusa.org/our-work/c...ericas/ecuador

    are just imperialistic propaganda. Hopefully heŽll make a nice reportage about it on RT.
