"A Swedish court has said it will not seek to detain WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange in relation to a suspected rape case.
The ruling by the Uppsala District Court does not mean a preliminary investigation in Sweden should be abandoned.
It states Assange would not be extradited and could be questioned in Britain.
Last month, the 47-year-old was evicted from the Ecuadorean embassy in London, where he had sought political asylum since 2012.
He was immediately arrested by police on 11 April and is currently serving a 50-week sentence in Britain for breaching bail."
