Wikileaks founder Julian Assange could be planning to hand himself in to police, after two years holed up inside the Ecuadorian embassy.
Sky News understands Assange is preparing to announce his next move at a press conference this morning, following reports over the weekend that he is in need of medical treatment for a serious health condition.
Australian Assange entered the Ecuadorian embassy in central London in June 2012, as he faced arrest in Sweden over allegations of sexual assault.
He claimed he did not want to go to Sweden to face the accusations - which he denies - for fear he would be extradited to America, where he is under investigation for publishing confidential documents through Wikileaks in 2010.
He has not stepped foot outside of the Ecuadorian embassy since, and will be arrested if he leaves. There is a 24-hour police presence outside the building.
Ecuador's foreign minister said last night that the British government had no interest in finding a solution to the stalemate with Assange, and told the Guardian that the UK was breaching the campaigner's human rights.
On Sunday, it was reported that Assange may be suffering from a heart or chronic lung condition, and that he had dangerously high blood pressure.
