A small throng of supporters chanted"free Julian Assange"as the pair arrived.
Monday's ruling is a major development in the 10-year saga. Assange spent nearly seven years holed up at the Ecuadorian embassy in London to escape being extradited to Sweden to face allegations of sexual assault.
He was kicked out by his hosts in dramatic scenes in April 2019 when they invited Scotland Yard to enter the embassy and arrest their long-term resident. Assange has been held in custody ever since.
