WikiLeaks Founder Cleared In Home Country

POLICE in Australia have concluded that WikiLeaks and its Australian-born founder Julian Assange have not broken any laws in his home country by publishing classified American documents, the government said yesterday.

The finding has no direct bearing on investigations in the United States into the original leaking of the thousands of classified diplomatic documents to Assange's organization.

But it will come as good news to Assange, who has complained of persecution by the Australian government over the publication of the documents.
