WikiLeaks says it will release CIA paper on Wednesday

By the CNN Wire Staff
August 24, 2010 6:59 p.m. EDT

(CNN) -- WikiLeaks, a whistle-blower website, posted on the group's Twitter page on Tuesday: "WikiLeaks to release CIA paper tomorrow."

The website set off a firestorm of controversy recently when it posted some 76,000 U.S. documents related to the war in Afghanistan. The group has said it has another 15,000 documents, which it plans to release soon.

It was not immediately clear whether the Twitter post on Tuesday is related to the batch of documents that WikiLeaks has called the "Afghan War Diary."

Founder and editor of the website, Julian Assange, was arrested in absentia last week in Sweden on charges of rape. The warrant was revoked less than a day later by Chief Prosecutor Eva Finne. Separately on Tuesday, the attorney for the alleged victims told CNN rumors that the Pentagon or CIA was somehow involved in the sex crime accusations against Assange are "complete nonsense."

1. "Julian Assange, was arrested in absentia last week in Sweden on charges of rape"

never heard having a warrant being called "arrested in absentia" before. I call having a warrant and not arresting someone, "not making an arrest."

Oh, that was a surpise, that Pentagon and CIA was involved in this sherenade against Julian Assange. :sarcasm: It was clear from the get-go that CIA or Pentagon in some fashion was involved in this case.. I guess my "friend" "T" now wil back down, from his claim that mr Assange was using this for a decoy to make a name for himself.. Holly shit how long a man can go, with common sense, against righ wing nutts who is flying high and long, and then going burning down to the ground after been shoot down again

WikiLeaks, the whistle-blower website that infuriated the Pentagon when it published thousands of classified military reports, said on Tuesday it will release another document soon.

The group posted on its Twitter page: "WikiLeaks to release CIA paper tomorrow."

The website set off a firestorm recently when it posted some 76,000 U.S. documents related to the war in Afghanistan. The group has said it has another 15,000 documents, which it plans to release soon.
