He can't be extradited to Sweden now if he leaves. I wouldn't be surprised if the US attempted to pursue him directly on some other charge. Before something else comes up, he could get on a plane somewhere now though safely enough though.

No, he was on bail when he went in to the embassy, and the maximum penalty (in a Crown court) for skipping bail in the UK is 12 months (which I imagine he would get).
