>> welcome to the program. afghan tribal leaders are meeting for a second day to discuss a crucial security deal for the united states. both sides have not been able to agree on when to implement the agreement. at the loya jirga meeting president hamid karzai said he wanted the deal signed after elections. the u.s. want it completed by the end of next year. it sets out rules over jurisdiction and power of troops that will remain in the county, we'll get more from jane ferguson. the u.s. said it's not practical or possible to delay signing the deal. clearly comments took everyone by surprise. >> they did. they have been described by journalists reporting the story as a bombshell for afghans as well as those in washington. it's likely those stateside woke up to unwelcome news, something they were not planning for.

they hoped the jirga and the parliament would approve the task. and then it would be a complication, a small matter of having it signed by hamid karzai. now we have two administrations with two different view points. the u.s. are saying it needs to be signed by the end of the year and hamid karzai saying it won't be signed at all before april. that will overshadow these negotiations at the jirga, which was meant to be about the draft. not about when it would be signed, but the issues here, interg afghan homes and milt -- interg afghan homes and military bases. on the first day of discussions everyone is talking about the fallout from hamid karzai's speech. >> there appears difficulties in hammering out the deal. what is on the agenda for today there? >> well, today, being the second day, it's actually really the first day of really getting down to looking at this draft deal.

there are about 2,500 representatives present here. they are in the compound in the large hall behind me, down the hill, and now they are looking at the draft. they've been divided into about 50 committees - to make them smaller numbers so they can realistically debate each and every point. that will happen today and tomorrow. al jazeera has been down there talking to delegates who feel a little downtrodden by the row that erupted between washington and kabul saying they feel like they are pawns in political names. they feel as if the future of their country is overshadowed. is president hamid karzai taking it seriously and is the draft a serious indication of what is happening in the future. they have that hanging over their head as they go through each and every legal point. >> thank you. libyan militias handed over

control of many of their bases to the army. fighters from misrata and other cities withdrew from tripoli. residents have been angry at the militias. more than 30 were killed when fighters fired at protesters. the government says there's no room for militias. >> translation: the evacuation from armed groups from the city of tripoli includes the evacuation of all armed groups. all should hand over military compounds and ut ilties to the army. >> a group of u.s. senators are pushing for tighter sanctions on iran, it came as in effectses with iran and p5+1 entered a third day. the iranian economy suffered. so far there has been no breakthrough in trying to persuede iran.

launched a criminal investigation. what more have they been saying? >> not much. actually, yes, the criminal investigation has been open. we know that the building is - it was open in 2011, two years ago. we could say brand new building. there are speculation about the quality of the construction works. and that is all there is, speculation at the moment. >> that was from our correspondent in latvian capital, riga. >> hundreds protested in kiev about a government decision to suspend a trade deal with the e.u., following a refusal by a party to pass an appeal allowing a woman to leave for medical

without the neighbours suspecting that something was wrong. it's been described as the worst case of modern slavery in the u.k. ever. the policeman in charge. case says it's the worse incident of its sort that he has ever seen. the women are now in a place of safety. as you can imagine, they are boning counseledly, looked after. a charity played a crucial part in all this because the women apparently saw a television program talking about people who they immediately recognised as fellow victims, and they managed to make contact with the charity who contacted the police. this rescue operation began and was carefully coordinated and we understand that the women were able to walk from the house - or at least two of them initially, on their own where police were waiting to receive them.

as you say, an extraordinary case, but the police are still very much in investigation mode, trying to discover exactly what was taking place during the three decades. >> and, tim, what more do we know about the state the women are in, and the conditions under which they were held in. >> well, they are described as traumatised. there's no suggestion that there was sexual abuse in this case, but it's been reported that they were physically and mentally abused during their time in which they were enslaved. they had, according to the police, what the detectives described as a limited amount of freedom. but this is being described as a case of slavery. the two people who police were questioning have been released on police bail until early next

year. we understand they are not british nationals. it's possible or it's been reported that they may be married. they are 67 years old. they are a man and a woman. we don't know more about them other than that. but certainly they will be - watch very carefully by the police in the meantime, and as i say women are being cared for and the police are carefully piecing together the bits of information that they are able to get from them, given they are traumatised. >> tim friend a new scotland yard in london. thank you. >> over the last 24 hours we have been running an exclusive story about malaysia's lizard king. an al jazeera investigation revealed he's still running his victim. he is again being investigated,
