He has not been seen since and no details are available yet. Heavy summarizes what little is known at this date and Norwegian police have started looking for him.

If the Swedes don't know about any sexual relationship to mask an extraordinary rendition request from the Americans, there's no reason to look in the Ecuadorian embassy.

The other obvious place to look is Gitmo.

I'd check the morgue. Depending on what he knows about the Wikileaks/Russia relationship, Putin and his thugs may have more than a passing interest in "silencing" this consultant.
Of course, he could be in gitmo. Now that the US government has become completely lawless as well, it's a crap shoot which government poses the bigger risk to these people. One thing is clear, whichever side wins in this cyberwar, the transparency and openness that wikileaks pretended to represent will certainly lose.
