Stella Assange asks for 'privacy' after reuniting with Julian in Australia

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange embraced his wife and father as he walked across the tarmac in Canberra, returning to his home country as a free man.
Assange had been expected to speak to media but his wife Stella Morris said he "needed time to recuperate" and "get used to freedom," as she thanked the Australian government and Opposition, among others who worked to secure Assange's freedom.
Assange pleaded guilty to a US espionage criminal charge in Saipan, 14 years after he published classified military documents.
