Julian Assange
: 'I feel at peace': "Speaking to Today presenter John Humphrys at the mansion in East Anglia where he is staying under strict bail conditions, he said he is fighting extradition because he believes 'no natural justice' would occur in the country.He said he believed the most probable explanation for the allegations was that two women 'found out that they were mutual lovers of mine and they had unprotected sex and they got into a tizzy about whether there was a possibility of sexually transmitted diseases'.
It was a 'ridiculous thing to go to the police about,' he added.
Mr Assange insisted that in the long term the allegations would be helpful for his organisation.
'You are in a very beneficial position if you can be martyred without dying,' he said.
In a wide-ranging interview, he denied that the leaks had prevented diplomats from being able to operate."
