A U.K. judge agreed to release WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange from custody once he posts £200,000 ($316,000) in bail, but Mr. Assange will remain in custody for up to 48 hours as Swedish prosecutors seeking to extradite him appeal the decision.



Mr. Assange has been in custody in London since last week, when he was arrested by U.K. police on a European warrant issued by Sweden, which wants to question Mr. Assange about allegations he raped one woman and molested another. Sweden hasn't formally charged him with wrongdoing. Mr. Assange's arrest comes amid a global furor over WikiLeaks's release of thousands of leaked classified documents.
