Assange claims suitcase containing Wikileaks files was stolen

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has asked Swedish police to investigate what happened to a suitcase he suspects was stolen from him by intelligence agents as he travelled from Sweden to Germany in 2010.

The suitcase contained three laptops with WikiLeaks material, including evidence of a “war crime” allegedly committed by US troops in Afghanistan, according to an affidavit that Assange’s lawyer filed along with a criminal complaint to police at Stockholm’s Arlanda Airport.
