WikiLeaks, the website that has published thousands of confidential US embassy cables, has donated $15,100 (£9,500) to the legal defence fund of Bradley Manning, the soldier accused of handing providing it with the digital trove.
WikiLeaks had been coming under mounting criticism from Manning’s supporters to honour a pledge made last July to take on board a substantial part of the financial burden of the soldier’s defence. The fund is managed by Manning’s Rhode Island-based lawyer, David Coombs.
