Sky sources have confirmed that Julian Assange's legal team are due to meet him in Wandsworth Prison on Thursday, ahead of a court appearance on December 14.
The information comes after the lawyers for the WikiLeaks founder had complained they did not have access to their client.
The Australian spent Tuesday night in Wandsworth Prison after turning himself into police over sexual assault allegations made against him in Sweden.
He was arrested and refused bail until another hearing on December 14 as the judge considered him a flight risk.
Mr Assange's legal team had voiced their frustration they were not able to speak to him over the phone and would not have access to him for another five days.
