Notes
Despite having a chronic lung condition and contrary to medical advice given the dangers posed by Covid19, Julian continues to be denied bail and remains in Belmarsh prison where he is in his cell over 23 hours a day and not receiving the medical care he needs.
His extradition trial continues on Sep 7 2020. If convicted, Julian will be extradited to the US and face a potential for 175 years in the horrific conditions of a US supermax prison under special administrative measures.
