It's weird that the UN special rapporteur considers the process in a large, high-visibility, international legal case to be torture. His explanation of the torture Assange has suffered basically sems to sum up to massive anxiety brought about by the uncertainty of the process. That makes sense (the process is ill-defined and where the law draws lines here is up for debate), but by that definition isn't every prisoner awaiting their day in court on serious charges being "tortured?"
