Westwood’s family say they are ‘deeply disappointed’ that WikiLeaks founder was not given temporary release from prison
Julian Assange has been denied permission to leave prison to attend the funeral of Dame Vivienne Westwood, according to her family.
Westwood’s family said they were “deeply disappointed that we were unable to fulfil Vivienne’s wishes but are unsurprised by the decision, which is unjust and in keeping with the inhumane treatment [Assange] has received from the UK authorities up to this point”.
