MSNBC's article on Asange's arrest contains the following sentence:
http://goo.gl/g1ajN
> His lawyer had earlier arranged to deliver him to British police for
> questioning in a sex-crimes investigation of the man who has angered
> Washington by spilling thousands of government secrets on the Internet.
"His", "him" and "man who..." all refer to the same person.
