Wikileaks founder Julian Assange, who is seeking asylum at Ecuador's London embassy, has breached bail and faces arrest, police have said.
Mr Assange, whose conditions included staying at his bail address between 2200 and 0800 BST, spent Tuesday night at the embassy.
Last week he failed to reopen an appeal against his extradition to Sweden.
Mr Assange, wanted for questioning over rape and sexual assault allegations, denies any wrongdoing.
Ecuador had said it was "studying and analysing" Mr Assange's request for asylum.
Mr Assange fears if he is sent to Sweden it may lead to him being sent to the US to face charges over whistle-blowing website Wikileaks, for which he could face the death penalty.
His website has published a mass of leaked diplomatic cables that embarrassed several governments and international businesses. |
