Freed WikiLeaks founder vows to continue his work

WIKILEAKS founder Julian Assange vowed to “continue his work and protest his innocence” after being released on bail last night.

The 39-year-old whistleblower emerged from the High Court hours after a judge ruled that he should be released and his lawyers accused the Swedish authorities of waging a “vendetta” against him.

On the steps of the court, he said it was “great to smell the fresh air of London”.
