THE young woman accompanying whistleblower Edward Snowden on his global journey to avoid US capture is the ex-lover of Julian Assange, a UK paper has claimed.

According to sources quoted in the Daily Mail, Sarah Harrison and WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange were involved in a relationship with sources describing Ms Harrison as Assange’s “right-hand man”.

--.

Ms Harrison, a British national, flew out to Hong Kong on behalf of Wikileaks to help Snowden after he revealed details of Prism, a massive US surveillance programme run by the National Security Agency (NSA) that pries into Facebook accounts, emails and phone calls.

Her parents told the Daily Mail they had not heard from their daughter.

"We haven’t heard a thing from Sarah and I’m worried - though not nearly as worried as my wife," said Ian Harrison, 74.
