@Oram52 That's a little disingenuous to claim that. The charges against him remain open. The Swedish prosecutor decided that all avenues had (at that time) been exhausted in attempting to bring him to trial because he was hiding in the Ecuadorian embassy.
Did the women involved press charges? Did they want to press charges? The point was it was politically motivated, prosecutors could care less about the two women involved. It was to find way to extradite Assange.
@Oram52 Yes and yes. A lawyer acting for one of them said "It is a scandal that a suspected rapist can escape justice and thereby avoid the courts,” Elisabeth Massi Fritz told Agence France-Presse in an email. “My client is shocked and no decision to [end the case] can make her change [her view] that Assange exposed her to rape.”

I am glad he released the info on Hillary , so Trump would get elected
God bless
And for the people who are claiming “second amendment”, he was also accused of rape. So shut up
Charges were dropped, those women didn't say it was rape. Assange volunteered to go to Sweden if they guarantee he wouln't be extradited to US.
