Julian Assange has spent a second night at the Ecuadorean embassy in London amid reports that a decision on his request for political asylum will be made on Thursday.

The 40-year-old WikiLeaks founder has been inside the building in Knightsbridge since Tuesday afternoon, when he went there to request political asylum under the UN refugee convention.

Ecuador's president, Rafael Correa, will make a decision on Assange's application later on Thursday, the country's deputy foreign minister, Marco Albuja, told the Australian Broadcasting Corporation.

On Wednesday night Albuja said: "We still can't make a final decision public yet until tomorrow.
