A group of doctors from around the world formed in October 2019 to voice our serious concerns about the health of Julian Assange and to condemn the violations of his right to be free from torture, right to health, and right to doctor-patient confidentiality.
Open Letter to the UK government
We, the undersigned medical doctors, wrote to the UK Home Secretary on Friday 22 November 2019 expressing our serious and unanimous concerns about the credible reports of the rapidly deteriorating health of Mr Julian Assange and the possibility that he could die in a UK prison. Our open letter received worldwide media coverage and countless letters of support from medical doctors and others around the world.
