Case Against Assange Teeters as DNA Evidence Fails

Without the man's DNA, it becomes challenging to link him to the alleged crime

|

The case against Wikileaks founder Julian Assange may be on the brink of collapse following claims from the defence team that the central piece of evidence used in the case does not contain Assange's DNA.

According to details that have emerged in a 100-page police report submitted after witnesses were interviewed and forensic evidence had been examined, the condom submitted for evidence by one of the key alleged sexual assault victims does not contain Assange's DNA.
