our correspondent angus crawford is at belmarsh prison in london, where julian assange is being held.ked because through the next steps. ill make it a very short term, he'll be here for the next five and a half months until he even eligible for parole. select next in sweden? we believe that they will apply a second european arrest warrant, they can either decide to try and interview him by video link or to put ina interview him by video link or to put in a formal extradition request and then we get to a fascinating time where mr assange is wanted simultaneously by two countries, sweden and the us. charging them with an offence of hacking and getting secret material, they have to launch that formally i the 14th ofjune and by that point, we have a problem. the question is which takes precedents? it gets really political because that decision lies in the hands of the home secretary, who has to carry out what is a somewhat judicial process of what comes next. whatever the decision, it will be hugely controversial. but it is unlikely that it will happen anytime soon. putting your mind back

the conditions in belmarsh prison are not good two to a sturdy measures and cut backs. the prison population is forced to be in their in their cells for twenty three hours of of the day which is tantamount to solitary confinement in fact it is a definition of solitary confinement un report or in terms of visiting yes on torture there is and in fact the rapper terror terror trial has requested a visit and is going to visit him in belmarsh next week the conditions are poor or a little very strong person and he will he will survive it but that doesn't take away from from the extended campaign for many years to break him down fidel you must be watching out of the mainstream media in this country is covering the case you knew julie was six of those seven years what have you made of him being portrayed basically as a as a poor house guest is that the story and why are they covering it like that was he basically tortured in europe i think there is contained to smear julian i think is complete and therefore to distract their attention from the main theme which is that journalist

journalism in the world it was a preliminary hearing julian assange appeared via video link from belmarsh prison where he is currently incarcerated and the judge also him if he consents to being sent over to the u.s. to which julian assange replied i do not wish to surrender myself for extradition for doing journalism that has won many awards i'm protected many people so it's the judge replied i'll take that as the decline and the hearing was only now the next hearing is going to be on the thirtieth of may that's going to be procedural so going through the legal steps that are to be taken as part of this legal case then there will be another more substantial of hearing on the twelfth over june but the real sort of extradition case the full hearing isn't expected for many months and it gives you an idea of how drawn out the drip drip of this legal process is going to be the central question that's being examined is whether the british authorities should to allow the extradition of julian assange over to the u.s. where he is facing charges of computer hacking that was of course prior to the leaks

is a critical how do you ok just i just that either of never being what i think judy has been belmarsh prison the so-called guantanamo of prisons in this country what do you make of wiki leaks and. and situation where you're injuriously which you know i really don't know much about him. but as soon as i started to hear about his work suddenly kind of forward if i thought it would end this way the idea of somebody who says there's all this stuff that hidden from you and i'm going to show you it i'm going to give it to you left right and center. it's the kind of person i've always wanted to see you know what i've always i've always felt that there's so much that we just don't know about it and here's somebody to kind of put me in the public domain one thing that really upsets me is that we don't hear about all the stuff that they're putting out i sort of film of american soldiers shooting innocent people in the street you know this is big news these are the kinds of things that the people of my country the people who were should know about these are the kind of thing that these people get up to
