Julian Assange to publicly address Council of Europe on Oct 1, testifying on political prisoner case.

Julian Assange, founder of WikiLeaks, plans to publicly address the Council of Europe on October 1, marking his first appearance since his release from prison in June. He will testify before a committee investigating his case, which has classified him as a political prisoner and called for an inquiry into his treatment. Assange's release followed a plea deal in the U.S., and his testimony may influence his potential bid for a presidential pardon.
