Comments by "gerhard7" (@gerhard7323) on "Sweden closing Nordsteam investigation shocking coverup -investigator" video.
The charges, which were later dropped, were instigated by Sweden likely because it was deemed to be far easier to extradite Assange to US from there than from the UK particularly if he could first be charged with another crime. He sought refuge in the UK Ecuadorian Embassy breaching his bail terms specifically to avoid being sent to Sweden knowing what would then ensue. Charges were later dropped and then later reinstated after his eviction from the embassy only for a Swedish district court to effectively scupper them. All charges were later dropped amid bizarre claims that the passage of time had somehow weakened the evidence despite Swedish authorities allegedly having confidence in the complainant. By then Assange was then banged up in the high security Belmarsh prison attempting to fight his extradition to the US on trumped up charges.
