Just to clear this up...

Just to clear this up... he has previously offered to surrender himself to the Swedish government if they agreed NOT to extradite his to the US. They said yes, OK, promise.

He then asked them to provide a written, signed, guaranty that he would NOT be immediately handed over to the Americans and extradited back to the US. The Swedish government back-tracked, said they couldn't provide such a document or any formal guarantees, but would he mind coming back to Sweden anyway?

At this point it became clear to everyone with a brain that he was being set-up.
