Assange v Swedish Prosecution Authority of limitations for this charge was not expected to expire until 2020. Swedish authorities interviewed Assange on this allegation in November 2016. On 19 May 2017, the Swedish chief prosecutor applied to the Stockholm District Court to rescind the arrest warrant for Julian Assange, effectively ceasing their investigation against Julian Assange. The case may be reinstated until the expiration of the statute of limitations. Additionally, Britain's arrest warrant pertaining to bail violations remains open. In 2013, Sweden tried to drop Assange extradition but the english Crown Prosecution Service dissuaded them from doing so. Assange presented himself to the Metropolitan Police
Julian Assange from two women with whom he had sex. He was questioned, the case was initially closed, and he was told he could leave the country. In November 2010, however, the case was re-opened by a special prosecutor who said that she wanted to question Assange over two counts of sexual molestation, one count of unlawful coercion and one count of "lesser-degree rape" ("mindre grov våldtäkt"). Assange denied the allegations and said he was happy to face questions in Britain. In 2010, the prosecutor said Swedish law prevented her from questioning anyone by video link or in the London embassy. In
