No Assange appeal

A Swedish prosecutor won鈥檛 appeal a decision not to detain WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, who is now jailed in Britain and suspected of rape in Sweden.

Deputy Chief Prosecutor Eva-Marie Persson said yesterday she planned to carry out 鈥渃ertain supplementary questioning鈥 but didn鈥檛 elaborate. Earlier this month, a Swedish court ruled that Assange should not be detained, meaning that while a preliminary investigation in Sweden shouldn鈥檛 be abandoned, he wouldn鈥檛 be extradited and could be questioned in Britain.
