Let us see birth chart of Julian Assange 

Julian Assange ran Saturn-Rahu 10-8-2008 to 15-6-2011, Saturn-Mars from 5-6-2011 to 27-12-2013. In this dasha he released all leaks related to public (see Rahu-Saturn). In it he became world famous as Saturn signifies it. Saturn-Rahu both are evil in his chart and prepared him for long term suffering. But in same dasha he was also arrested because of rape charges which chart perfectly justifies, rape was committed. In Saturn-Jupiter-Venus he took asylum which chart confirms. Saturn period was over and 8th lord Mercury’s major period began after 27-12-2013. Mercury is paap-marak and is in rashi sandhi and aspected by Saturn hence would be a great problem for him. In Mercury-Venus dasha he was arrested in April 2019 in foreign country which chart clearly confirms. Venus is 12th lord in 8th signifying all houses of confinement.
