Not taking the beeb at face value, but taking Assange's statements at face value suggests a similar lack of objectiveness.

You don't need to take his statements at face value. It was objective reality in 2012 that he was not facing "rape charges" in Sweden at the time.

And isn't that because Swedish law doesn't allow charges to be laid until after an interview occurs?

assange s statements were not false though. the beeb is lying here [there were no rape charges]
