in the US, at least, if you issue a search warrant then there are strong pre-existing allegations. i'd agree that 'assume' is a nasty word, but from the reports coming out yesterday over here it would appear that they thought they'd be moving towards an arrest warrant shortly. there's to be a press conference mid-day PST.

according to court tv it's already been issued:

I'm not really defending him as such, just the principle of innocent until proven guilty.

# oh, i agree completely
but i'd already read the BBC/Court TV report when i replied to your post. i just failed to explain that. sorry.

EDIT: apparently innocent-until-proven-guilty does not apply in this country anymore, anyway. see Guantanamo Bay...
