Swedish Supreme Court Rejects Julian Assange's Arrest Warrant Appeal

CANBERA (dpa-AFX) - Sweden's supreme court rejected WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange's appeal over his arrest on rape and sexual assault allegations. Sweden has issued an arrest warrant to Assange, based on different complaints of rape and sexual assault by two Swedish women in 2010.
The whistle blower has been maintaining that the sexual encounters were consensual and alleged that the plot was to extradite him to U.S. He has been staying in embassy of Ecuador in London since 2012, to avoid extradition to Sweden.
The court noted that the investigators are trying to question Assange at his present residence and it finds no reason to lift the arrest warrant. However, one judge in the panel dissented.
U.S wants Assange in custody to question him over allegations of hacking and releasing of more than 500 thousand classified files on Afghan and Iraq war and 250 thousand secret diplomatic cables.

I just saw this on FOREX.com
BANGKOK, March 26 (Reuters) - Thailands parliament voted
overwhelmingly on Thursday to introduce harsher punishments for
human traffickers, including life imprisonment and the death
penalty in cases where their victims had died.
Thailands move came a day after Britain passed a law that
could see traffickers face life imprisonment, and marked the
latest step to combat a multi-billion dollar trade in human
misery.
Thailands National Legislative Assembly (NLA) voted to
amend the countrys Anti-Trafficking in Persons Act in the third
reading.
The changes will allow prosecutors to seek the death
penalty and fines of up to 400,000 baht ($12,281) for those
convicted of trafficking offences, Police General Chatchawan
Suksomjit said.
If the trafficked person dies in the hands of the
trafficker then the sentence can now be life in prison or even
the death penalty, said Chatchawan, who headed the committee
responsible for amending the act.
If a victim of human trafficking is severely injured, those
responsible can be sentenced to up to 20 years in prison and
fined up to 400,000 baht, he said.
The fine has now increased and goes up to 400,000 baht if
the trafficker causes grievous bodily harm to the trafficked
person.
The U.S. State Department last year downgraded Thailand to
the lowest category in its annual ranking of countries based on
their counter-trafficking efforts.
Thailands military government said in January it was
confident it had met the minimum standards to improve its
ranking.
But a government report aimed at lifting Thailand from the
list of the worlds worst offenders showed Thailand identified
fewer victims of human trafficking last year than in 2013 and
convicted fewer perpetrators.
Thailand is a source, transit and destination country for
human trafficking.
