2 Dec 2019 - Inkqubo eqhubekayo echasene nommi waseAustralia uJulian Assange, umsunguli weWikiLeaks, ngoku obanjelwe kwiBelmarsh Prison kufutshane neLondon, abonisa ukhukuliseko lomgaqo-siseko wemithetho-siseko ehlonitshwayo yamalungelo oluntu, umthetho kunye nenkululeko yedemokhrasi yokuqokelela nokwabelana ngolwazi. Sithanda ukujoyina umgca ongaqhelekanga woqhanqalazo lwangaphambili kwimeko.
Kwiminyaka elishumi elinesihlanu eyadlulayo, umhlaba wothuswa ziimeko ezinzulu zelungelo lokuqhubekeka kunye nokuxoxwa kwetyala xa, njengenxalenye yemfazwe yase-US kwisoyikiso, i-CIA yatyeshela igunya lendawo ukubambisa abantu kwiinqwelomoya e-Europe ukuya kumazwe wesithathu apho babephathwa gadalala kwaye bancinwa ngemibuzo. Phakathi kwezoqhanqalazo zokuvakaliswa komsindo yayikumanyano olwalusekwe eLondon-International Bar Association; yabona ingxelo yayo, Iingxelo ezingummangaliso, KuJanuwari 2009 (www.ibanet.org). Umhlaba kufuneka ume ngokuqinileyo ngokuchasene neenzame ezinjalo zokusebenzisa amandla aphezulu, ulawulo lwehlabathi kunye nokungenelela, ukuphembelela okanye ukujongela phantsi ukhuselo lwamalungelo oluntu kwamanye amazwe.
Nangona kunjalo, okokuba i-WikiLeaks ikhuphe ubungqina bezenzo zolwaphulo-mthetho zase-US e-Iraq nase-Afghanistan, i-US kangangeminyaka elithoba yohlwaya uJulian Assange kwaye yamhlutha inkululeko yakhe. Ukuthintela ukuya e-United States, u-Assange wanyanzeleka ukuba afune indawo yokuhlala kwi-embassy yase London e-Ecuador ngo-Agasti 2012. Ngo-Epreli 2019, e-Ecuador - ngokuchasene nemithetho yokukhuselwa kwezizwe ngezizwe-wanika uAsange amapolisa ase-Bhritane, namaxwebhu akhe abucala kwezomthetho anikezela kubameli base-US.
Emva kokubhengeza ukuxhaphazwa okukhulu kwe-US kunye nokuqikelelwa kwamandla njengesoyikiso kumthetho wamazwe kunye nokuhleleka, u-Assange wazibonela amandla onke. Ukuphambuka kwamanye amazwe ukubenza kunye neenkqubo zabo zomthetho kugoba umthetho kukujongela phantsi kunye nokuphula izivumelwano zamalungelo abantu. Amazwe mawangavumeli inkcubeko yezopolitiko kunye namandla enkcubeko ukuba angcolise kwaye onakalise ulawulo olunobulungisa ngokomthetho.
Izizwe ezikhulu njengeSweden, i-Ecuador, ne-Bhritane ziye zasebenza ngokuhambelana neminqweno ye-US, njengoko kubhaliwe kwiingxelo ezimbini ze-2019 ngu-Nils Meltzer, Umnxibelelanisi we-UN okhethekileyo kwiTorture kunye nolunye u-Cruel, u-Inhuman okanye u-Degrading Unyango okanye ukohlwaya. Phakathi kwezinye izinto, uMelzer uqukumbela ngelithi,
Kwiminyaka eyi-20 ndisebenza namaxhoba emfazwe, ubundlobongela kunye nentshutshiso yezopolitiko andikaze ndibone iqela lamazwe wedemokrasi lihlangana lize ngabom, lenze idemon kwaye liphathe gadalala umntu omnye ixesha elide kangaka kwaye kuthathelwa ingqalelo isidima somntu. umthetho. ”
Umkomishinara oMkhulu we-UN wamaLungelo oluNtu / kwiQela lokuSebenza ngokuGwetywa ngokungaphaya kwe-2015, kwaye kwakhona kwi-2018, wayefuna ukukhutshwa kuka-Assange ekubanjweni ngokungekho mthethweni nangokungekho mthethweni. IBritani inyanzelekile ukuba ihlonele amalungelo e-CCPR kunye nezigqibo zeUN / WGAD.
I-Assange isempilweni kwaye ngaphandle kwezixhobo, ixesha okanye amandla okukhusela amalungelo akhe. Amathemba okugwetywa ngokufanelekileyo ajongelwa phantsi ngeendlela ezininzi. Ukusuka kwi2017 ukubheka phambili, iOfisi yase-Ecuadorian yazisa inkampani eyi-Spain ebizwa ngegama Tyhila iGlobal Thumela ividiyo yangempela kunye nokuhanjiswa kwesandi kwe-Assange ngqo kwi-CIA, esaphula nelungelo legqwetha-lokufumana ilungelo lokubiza iintlanganiso zakhe namagqwetha (El País I-26 Septemba. 2019).
IBritani kufuneka ilandele umzekelo wokuzingca we-Iceland. Olo hlanga lincinci lwalukhusela ngamandla ubukhosi balo ngokuchasene nomzamo wase-US kwi-2011 ukusebenzisa igunya elingafanelekanga, xa wagxotha iqela elikhulu labacuphi be-FBI elalingene kweli lizwe kwaye wayeqale ukuphanda ngeWikiLeaks kunye ne-Assange ngaphandle kwemvume kurhulumente wase-Icelandic. Unyango lukaJulian Assange lungezantsi kwesidima sesizwe esikhulu esanika umhlaba iMagna Carta kwi1215 kunye neHabeas Corpus. Ukuvikela inkululeko yakhe yesizwe kunye nokuthobela imithetho yayo, urhulumente wase-Bhritane okhoyo kufuneka akhulule i-Assange ngokukhawuleza.
