WIKILEAKS CREATOR’S MUM HOLES UP AT AUSTRALIAN COASTAL RESORT

SON FEARS ASSASSINATION
Australia’s Sunshine Coast has become the refuge for the mother of Julian Assange, the mastermind behind one of the largest leaks of confidential documents in history.
Christine Assange, who runs a puppet theatre, told the Sunshine Coast Daily on Wednesday she had recently moved to the Coast to escape media scrutiny in Melbourne.
Meanwhile, WikiLeaks website’s spokesman says Julian Assange is at risk of being assassinated over the release of secret US documents and will remain in hiding for his own security.
Spokesman Kristinn Hrafnsson said the Australian's safety was at stake after US politicians called for him to face treason charges and an adviser to Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper reportedly said he should be killed.
"We have had threats from governments and commentators, some of them totally preposterous, even calls for the assassination of Julian Assange," Hrafnsson said during a debate at the Frontline Club in London.
