Wikileaks: Swiss bank closes Julian Assange's account
BBC News - Wikileaks: Swiss bank freezes Julian Assange's account
The Swiss post office bank, PostFinance, has frozen the accounts of Wikileaks founder Julian Assange.
The whistle-blowing website Wikileaks says the freeze includes a defence fund and personal assets worth 31,000 euros.
Wikileaks has published hundreds of secret US diplomatic cables, angering the US government and triggering the shutdown of its main website, which was hosted on US servers.
Sites including PayPal and Amazon have also closed services to Wikileaks.
Be interesting to see what legal grounds they've done this on!
