The court adjoins Belmarsh Prison and is connected to it via subterranean tunnels. Almost like a slaughter house where the poor creatures are led through. Judge rules Assange cannot sit with lawyers during extradition hearing By Thomas Scripps and Laura Tiernan 28 February 2020 The first week of the extradition hearing in USA v Julian Assange ended yesterday at Belmarsh Magistrates’ Court with Judge Vanessa Baraitser rejecting a submission from Assange’s lawyers that he be allowed to sit with them in court. Baraitser ruled Assange must remain in a bullet-proof glass-encased dock when the hearing resumes in May for the evidence phase of the hearing. Assange is fighting multiple indictments under the Espionage Act for exposing US war crimes, amid fears the Trump administration may seek the death penalty. /.. https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2020/02/28/assa-f28.html WSWS say 'Belmarsh Magistrates' Court'. I think that they are being ironic. The trial is being held in Woolwich Crown Court and the judge is one Vanessa Baraitser, appointed to the judiciary in 2011. https://www.judiciary.uk/about-the-judiciary/who-are-the-judiciary/list-of-members-of-the-judiciary/dj-mags-ct-list/ |
