The fashion designer’s family expressed their disappointment

The designer’s family said in a statement that they were “deeply disappointed that Vivian’s wish could not be granted, but were not surprised by the decision, which is unfair and consistent with the inhumane treatment she has received [ο Ασάνζ] by the British Authorities until now”.
He also added that: Julian has not been convicted of any crime, yet he is being treated as if he were a terrorist. The only thing he is guilty of is publishing the truth.”
THE Vivienne Westwood, a pioneering fashion designer and activist who played a pivotal role in the punk movement, was a prominent supporter of the WikiLeaks founder. She died “peacefully, surrounded by her family” in south London on December 29, according to the Guardian.
