Sweeden drops one Assange claim
Swedish prosecutors have been caught in a long game of cat and mouse with WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange over allegations of sexual assault. It has kept Assange locked down at the Ecuadorian Embassy in London for three years.
On Thursday, prosecutors announced they are dropping allegations involving sexual molestation and coercion as statutes of limitations in the investigation run out this month.

Their disappearance may not change Assange`s predicament. The allegation of suspicion of rape still stands and he may be investigated on it until 2020, Swedish prosecutors have said.
