Wikileaks founder Julian Assange has had his hopes for freedom dashed after being denied bail at a court hearing today.

Today's decision came after it was ruled on Monday that Assange, 49, cannot be extradited to the US to face spy charges because he is a suicide risk.

But Assange had his bail application denied by a judge at a Westminster Magistrates' Court hearing this morning.

District Judge Vanessa Baraitser rejected an application for Assange to be released with strict conditions over concerns he could "go to ground".

She said: "Mr. Assange still has an incentive to abscond from these proceedings.

"I am satisfied there are substantial grounds to believe that if he is released he would fail to surrender to this court."

US government lawyers are set to appeal Monday's judgment, with Assange to remain in custody in Belmarsh Prison, South East London.

Outside court today, Assange's partner, Stella Moris, mother of their two children, said: "This is a huge disappointment.

"Julian should not be in Belmarsh prison in the first place.

"I urge the Department of Justice to drop the charges and the president of the United States to pardon Julian."#News360Tv
