The 40-year-old Assange landed in trouble after two high court judges on Wednesday rejected his claim that the arrest warrant issued by the Swedish prosecutors would be "unfair and unlawful".His counsels argued that the arrest warrant was invalid. Meanwhile, Assange denied the allegations of rape made by two Swedish women. He said that all the charges are false and the women are politically motivated.
With the fresh ruling, he has to move to Sweden within 10 days. However, he could approach the British Supreme Court within 14 days against the order.
The ruling came after Assange announced that WikiLeaks will stop publishing to focus on fundraising.
