Julian Assange not being surveilled by cameras after all, admits "bail mansion" host

Vaughan Smith, who is hosting Wikileaks founder Julian Assange at his "Bail Mansion" in England, recently claimed that intelligent surveillance cameras had been installed nearby. Those claims were repeated in various news outlets. But Mr. Smith says he now understood the "cameras" were just radar-operated speed signs. More from the BBC: Claims about the "cameras" near the house's three entrances were made in a video produced by supporters of Mr Assange, criticising his bail conditions. In the video, Mr Smith, who owns the Frontline Club in Paddington, West London, said: "I'm not an expert on cameras but I believe these take number plates and record number plates." He went on say that the "cameras" had been installed at some time in the past three months. Here's the video.
