As far as I can tell, he doesn't want to go back to face them because (a) he hasn't been charged with anything, and (b) he believes they are allegations that could result in his extradition to the US. Once he is in the custody of the Swedes and charged, it is easier for the US to extradite him, since in all likelihood he'll be permanently in custody of some kind. It's harder for the UK to do that, since there are no charges (or allegations) against him in the UK.
