WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange arrested in London after Ecuador withdraws asylum.
Assange founded WikiLeaks in 2006 and made news four years later with the publication of leaked information provided by Chelsea Manning, a former U.S. Army intelligence analyst and self-described whistleblower.
Manning last month refused to testify before a federal grand jury looking into the release of documents to WikiLeaks.

Rafael Correa, then the president of Ecuador, granted him asylum in 2012..
Assange has remained in the embassy because London's Metropolitan Police said he would be arrested for violating his bail as soon as he stepped outside. The local force has been running an expensive operation to post officers outside the building in case that happens.
