UN panel agrees Assange is being 'arbitrarily detained' - report

BBC news has reported that a UN panel has ruled in favour of Wikileaks founder Julian Assange after he complained he was "arbitrarily detained".

Mr Assange has said he will hand himself over to police for arrest on Friday if a UN working party rules that he has not been unlawfully detained. The UN decision (from the Working Group on Arbitrary Detention) is due tomorrow.
