CIA 'Obsessed' With Former UK Envoy Who Will Testify in Spying-on-Assange Case

• https://consortiumnews.com By Joe Lauria

The former British ambassador to Uzbekistan and a close associate of imprisoned WikiLeaks publisher Julian Assange says he was the "top target" of the 24/7 surveillance of Assange at Ecuador's embassy in London by the Spanish security company UC Global, which, according to press reports and court documents, shared the surveillance with the CIA.

Craig Murray said he has been contacted by an attorney in the spying case on Assange and that he will be going to Madrid to testify. The founder of UC Global, David Morales, was arrested over the surveillance (including privileged Assange-lawyer conversations) and is on trial. 

Murray told former CIA analyst Ray McGovern in an email, shared with Consortium News with Murray's permission, that the CIA was "obsessed" with him.
