LONDON
Total cost of maintaining a 24-hour police watch outside the Ecuadorian Embassy where Wikileaks founder Julian Assange has resided for more than a year has reached nearly 4 million pounds.
Police wait outside the embassy to arrest him for violation of conditional release if he leaves the building.
UK Supreme Court charged the 42-year-old Australian with sex assault and rape accusations and ruled to extradite him to Sweden.
Ecuador granted Assange political asylum and he walked into the the Ecuadorian Embassy in 2012 in an attempt to avoid extradition to Sweden.
