SWEDISH OFFICIALS ATTEND ECUADORIAN EMBASSY TO QUIZ ASSANGE

Swedish officials are in the Ecuadorian embassy in London to question Wikileaks founder Julian Assange over rape allegations he denies.

The interview is being conducted via Ecuadorian officials.

Julian Assange has been living in the embassy for over four years after Ecuador granted him political asylum.

He claims if he's extradited to Sweden he will end up being sent to the US to face charges over leaking classified information.

UK correspondent Olly Barratt says it's a complicated situation.
