7:02 pm
a whole cabinet and the government must resign this regime and the specialist really must be a biology the bundle dish has that has to thousands of people and then, and nobody can, bobby just bought the crack down on this end. the violence left many bit serious injuries evicted you. i can feel the suffering and pain. i cannot express my pain when i'm lying in this hospital bed. i cannot move my legs, which are fractured in a place since i was not in the movement was why did they shoot me? the student protests and started beasley against government job who does and even
7:03 pm
though the go does what scaled back, the police clicked down continued the students continued protesting, seeking justice for those goods which suited justice again and again. see we have nothing in our hands. we never hold any with them. we are normal people. we just want to live a life without discrimination. such a personal feeling is neither acceptable and the democratic country prime minister has he not called upon to put tested to sit down with her to put an end to violence, to protest as the distorted for reconciliation has come to lead. the no, it's government continues to struggle to control and one of the most intense protest moments in front of these history. let's get more on the story from nadine shantelle more sheet. she is an associate professor at the university of buffalo and united states, but is currently in deca. nadine,
7:04 pm
you were at the protest in dock a tell us what you saw there as well. i will say that there is a lot of excitement in the air. i think the windows changes, perhaps boeing is a very diverse population and we see a lot of students from all walks of life. but we also see from various political affiliations as though utilizing a, it's a, it's a kind of a call that you don't often see in bangladesh or those if they're there in the thousands. and that's, that's amazing because until recently, um, as 2 weeks ago i went to a purchase and it was just like 15 people. and so within 2 weeks, you know, we, we see a very huge increase in the number of people who are on the street that i think that's, that's really interesting also because it's very peaceful, diverse and energetic at the same time. so yeah, i think, you know, being there felt like there was here, you're there with the people it's,
7:05 pm
it's nice it's, it's a energizing, it's all the more incredible considering that the government crackdown has led to death. now the protest, the leaders say they now have one demand about the prime minister. it steps down a previously they had other demands for broader reforms. have those totally gone away? and why are they focusing on the resignation of shade casino as well as you know, the, the demands went from the 9 point isn't demand that included things like resignation of ministers. you know, the demand for an apology was an important one. and those are fairly lights, demands in comparison to what is the us now. and i think is important to think about how we got here and we got here to violence. i think we once a bu, sorry, got killed is when things intensified. and i a like in this to work that i do on abusive relationships, the, the citizenry is in
7:06 pm
a relatively abusive relationship with the state. and, and if you think about the cycle of live is where it starts with a sort of tensions which then goes on to more difficult, more violent forms. and then is met with the honeymoon fees where, you know, an apology is made of cetera. and that maintains the vitamins and the cycle of violence is how that vitamins and gets maintained. and we see agree can that's hypo receive that here the policy wasn't made. and we see that there's an increase in severity in the but isn't particularly in terms of how many people gets killed after that 1st healing light. yeah, and i think that that really means the demand. that's why it went from the 9 points to the one and is again, like an abusive relationship when it's good, when it gets very severe is when people leave. and that's also when it gets the most violent and the most difficult and that,
7:07 pm
but that's what we're seeing. we are seeing the citizens in their relationship with the state that is violent, and the citizens one out. it says it's very severe, the violence is severe, right? one out, and of course you mentioned up was so you just now in case of for those tuning and who don't know this was one of the protesters who was killed and there was video of this now. um with so many people out on the street, how likely do you think it is that the prime minister steps down? well, this is just a more difficult question. right. and it's hard to think about what's gonna happen tomorrow, but i think it's perhaps easier to think about what's coming to the after, which is, which is there is, there was, there is hope, right? if you see a student will just move in that went from a quote to move and, and one that seemed at a equity and so on and to move on to see vitamins and then to move on. do you know,
7:08 pm
is, is this a npi seat move in and, and just in 2 weeks. right. and i think it speaks to a political consciousness that we haven't seen before, perhaps even in the last decade or so. you know, you've seen ways in which the student move it has been able to resist school optician and been seeing how students have shown how to how to be leaders in the most effective way. they are talking about governance in ways that are share their talking about distributive leadership. and i think that's what's coming. and i think that's, that's a space of real hope. nadine shanta. rashid, thank you so much for joining us. thank you for having me. the police in somalia say at least 32 people have been killed in an attack on a popular beach in the capital mortgage issue. within 60 others were injured. the
7:09 pm
i'll call you to affiliate group our ship. bob has claimed responsibility for the attack, which was carried out by a suicide bomber and several gunmen, according to police, 5 assailants were killed and one was captured alive. all should bob has been waging in us in insurgency against somalia as government for at least 17 years. now for some perspective, let's speak to some era guide. she's senior horn of africa analyst at the consultancy locust insights and she joins us from near robie. thank you very much. this is not the 1st time alice, you bob has targeted the speech. i believe what message do you think they are trying to send with this attack? thank you for having me. the group has been under serious attack from the government for the past 2 years. unfortunately, those attack stopped october last year when there was setbacks in the field. and
7:10 pm
because of that, they have been on the no. and now this was, that will be announcing the return to the, to the city 3, announcing the, the existence intending for government. and not only the government because this attack focused on civilians, not government officials. it was to remind us of williams of distilled very much in place, and to return that tara and c a. and this, i think, is the real message it was sending. yesterday, some viewers will recognize the name i should bob. but for those who don't know, can you tell us a little bit more about who they are? so this group, you know, like you mentioned your intro, it started in 2007, initially begun as what was received a nationalist movement, a group that was fighting against if you can use the vision that was to install the t a g at the time because of it to me, of a sized into, i mean search and see a terrorist group and a terrorist group that is all kind of stuff. the coffee lead uh, over the past 17 years up to the of pushed out of mogadishu in 2011. they went back to the insurgency roots and they just focus really now on terrorist attacks,
7:11 pm
complex attacks in hotels, and i'm pushes and security forces around the country. so uh, the important thing to know is that they collect taxes across the city. they are across the country, the i think ok, the most profitable tourist organizations. yeah, i mean that leads to the question. i was also wondering which is what makes the organization so durable on after so many years is part of it has having to do with the fact that they collect taxes. essentially there's some of their, a layer of governance there. yeah, the governance model is not just the taxes, but they do have schools where they induct. you need students from very, very young age. but the most important thing is how they're able to, you know, take it, take into account the grievances that exist within somebody, a society that led to the, to the state, to collapse that he is a go. and so what they do is really they use the crime cod use plans against each other. all the use as long cuts were necessary if that works. so they have been
7:12 pm
mazda is actually putting the code that works and they exist within the society. and so sometimes in some places you find that the, the terabytes as civilians where they have more authority and where they don't have authority, they really appeals to them by appealing to those grievances and those false lines . if you had one piece of advice to the symbolic government in terms of dealing with this and search and see what would it be or i mean, we focused, but for the security uh security is security security. so money is so fragile, and the most simple thing that this time is that we should not be the person by politics. we have seen the governments since july last year for crying on politics trying to walk on a campaign, talking about how to, you know, come back to power in 2 years time. and so offensive some stuff because the unity that existed between the political lead, once it went back to politics, has, as, as audit, stop. so the one advice is government to be focused on security. i need to find the political real from a position in all members of society, severe
