the indonesia president when he opened and he said what we normally remember and what leaders usually remember are the food and they have at the dinner and it was a joke and symbolizes the wine and dine content of this summit. but of course there is a lot more to it. of course it's not a summit won't constant decision and it's about commitment and meetings. so what has been come out of the meeting is people committed leaders in the region committed to this very important asia-pacific region that holds more than 50% of the gdp and that has been coming out of the meeting. of course we don't see any really concrete results but the economies are struggling nationally with their economies and of course it's very important that they actually come together here and as a forum and speak about speaking together and economic growth and

that is lined up with some information we received from our sources on mambassa that neban was, in fact, in a house in mombassa in 2003 when it was raided by antiterrorists police and he got away. now, he has lived it seems in baraway for more than ten years, baraway in somalia so it would appear the intelligence in u.s. and british and other agencies have been following closely the activities in barraway and how much information they received? it has not been in real time because otherwise they would have got this creamer person. and i also have to add that we hear in terms of creamer, i'm looking at reports the nis report that was leaked and he is listed here as being the master

mind and coordinator of the jd plot in december of 2011 and the target force plot were the parliament buildings in kenya, u.n. office in nairobi and kdf force camps and an ethiopian restaurant. and the plot was foiled with some arrests, but many of them got away including someone we heard of politically in the british media and that is luthwate which is a british explosive expert and on the run and normally connected to the attack in west gate mall by some media. she is still on the run and highly dangerous person according to our sources. >> andrew in nairobi, thanks andrew. ten bomb explosions in baghdad killed 37 people and 100 others were hurt in the capitol. security officers were among the dead at a check point north of baghdad.

welcome back, the top stories on al jazeera, the apex summit is over in bali with a warning to the world's biggest economy america that china and japan said to resolve the dealt crisis quickly to avoid worldwide consequences and they tried to catch al shabaab and mohamed in the raid in somalia and the u.n. secretary general proposed about 100 initial officials go to syria to destroy the chemical arsenal and hundreds have started dismantling chemical weapons. a greek journalists who publicized the name of 2000 suspected tax evaders will face

trial a second time and he is accused of breach of privacy for leaking the so-called la-guard list and broke laws after publication but said the verdict lacked credibility. the la-guard list has 2000 wealthy greeks with bank accounts in switzerland and given to authorities in 2010 and french prime minister to find tax offenders and accused the government of tampering with the list to remove names but there has been little action to prosecute anyone on the list. let's get more on this from john and john is in the capitol athens. has this trial, the second trial indeed, been politized? >> reporter: hanging over the trial is if the greek system has financial interests to give

people favorable treatment when it comes to tax collection and tax audits and whether the weight, the burden of tax revenue has fallen disproportionately and unfairly on the shoulders of the middle class of greece or whether there is real political will to go to the end of the earth to find out who really does owe money to the greek state regardless of their financial and social status. that is how they frame the issue concerning his trial. now, there is a powerful new weapon in his defense attorney's arsenal, that is that a committed inquiry formed over the summer to look into why the la-guard list was not used by previous administrations over the last two years decided to indict former finance minister and two former heads of the financial crime squad responsible for conducting audits and stand to a special court that is to be formed

inside parliament and further inquire as to whether they were guilty of criminal negligence in failing to use that list. that political import is being now summoned by defense attorneys to say there is a real question here, political question as well as a legal one over whether the list was properly used and should have been used earlier. >> briefly, if he is successfully prosecuted and if he is found guilty what is likely to happen after that verdict? >> well, the maximum sentence he faces is life in prison. but he said that he is going to willingly take that verdict if it arises at the end of the day and use his imprisonment to highlight the fact that there is not adequate press freedom in greece because he and other journalists as he says was punished, was targeted, for political end rather than on

legal principle for publishing a list of names that were embarrassing to the government because among those names are various wealthy greeks and influential people and also politicians or family members of politicians. so he is going to and his associates of course make the most out an indictment or a condemnation and guilty verdict if that happens. >> reporter: all right, john, in athens, thank you. the supreme court is in the first round of voting in the presidential elections and he fell short of 50% needed of victory in september but the supreme court has ruled thousands of votes cast were tainted, making it unclear which candidates qualified for runoff and new voting will take place on november the 20th. it's been more than a decade now since nigeria passed a law banning child labor but the international labor organization says nevertheless there are still 15 million children

problem and the energy system has debts of 26 billion euros debt and it could contaminate spain's public finances. whether spain will still be able to meet its 2020 renewable energy targets is a question the eu is demanding an answer to but he and many other spanyards will never touch solar energy again. >> reporter: the announcement that tokyo will host the 2020 games was greeted by delight in japan and one man means he will have to leave his home for the second time due to the international sporting event and we went there. >> tokyo, yeah. the capitol of japan will be in party mode when it's the first asian city to host the olympics twice and bad things come in twos and he is a shy,
