away from suspense to real-life horror. >> hello. a court in pakistan gave the police another week to produce an anti-drone activist kidnapped from his home in pakistan. his son and brother was killed in a drone attack in 2009. he brought a case in the pakistani court calling for members of the u.s. central intelligence agency, the c.i.a., to be prosecuted for the killings. he was due to give evidence before the parliament. his families said he was abducted by men in police uniforms last wednesday. >> even though his family and neighbour and lawyer continue to

insist that 20 policeman armed and travelling in official vehicles, that the police denied they had arrested him and his family filed a petition in the court, asking about what had happened to karim kahn. now, the court arrived the police to produce karim carnaby 12th of february. the police deny that they have taken him into custody. the court asked for him to be produced by 20 february, whether he is with the police or the intelligence agencies. now, interestingly karim kahn was taken from his home days before he was due to fly from europe, where he was going to talk to a number of parliamentarians from britain,

holland and germany. he was going to share his experiences from the drone strike. he lost his son and brother in a drone attack in 2009, and has since been campaigning against the drone strikes. >> let's speak to karim's lawyer. thanks for being with us. since he was taken last week, have you heard anything on the whereabouts of your clients? >> i'm afraid we have no new updates on karim's whereabouts. today the police produced a criminal case for the abduction of karim kahn. they made a statement saying it's not the pooun jab police

that took him. the judge issued notices to the ministry of interior, before the 20th of february, after she canning to see if they captured karim kahn from his house. >> you are saying the criminal case is saying that the punjab police are not the ones that took karim. who is the court saying that did that? >> this is a statement made by the pooun jab police, one police station inspector in court before the judge. after making their statement, the police said that he is not in the police custody and the judge issued notice to the ministry of interior, which is the ministry in charge of not just punjab police, but all the police minister ris, and the intelligence agencies. if it was not police, it must be

intelligence agencies so they should produce karim in court so if there's anything pending he can be given due process. >> he was heading to give testimony at the european parliament in relation to drone strikes. were there threats to his life? did he tell you anything? what is his family saying about this? what do they think? >> family is in shock. he was abducted by 20 armed men in front of his young children, as young as five-year-old son. his eldest son is 12 years old. his daughters and his wife were at his home, and he moved, his family, from waziristan, where they were living upped the threat of -- under the threat of being targeted by the drones. the family lost a son three years ago, and now a

father. the extreme shock, they are asking the question from the government, what is their fault and where their father is. >> thank you for joining us from lahore in pakistan. >> humanitarian operations in homs are due to resume around now. the latest convoy follows late night discussions around logistics and security around government representatives, the u.n. evacuation of women and children were suspended due to logistical reasons. 800 are believed to be in the besieged part of the city. around 200 men in government custody is unknown. >> stefanie dekker is watching developments. stefanie dekker joins us. what are you hearing about the resumption of the humanitarian mission. >> it has started. they have gone in.

what they are doing is towing aid at the back of u.n. vehicles. we had two big trucks go in. they couldn't manage to get the trucks out. they are trying this, part of the late-night talks, trying to see what is the best way to get aid in. 150 food parcels, 250 bags of wheat. there's hundreds of civilians in the city who want to come out. we spoke to the governor of homs. he said everything was being done to ensure everywhere that wants to get out can get out. this is the last day of the 3-day extension. there was a feeling they might consider continuing if there are more who wanted to come out. >> what are you hearing about the situation? >> well there's a situation ongoing. this is a town on the boarder with lebanon.

it's the last town rebel held in that area. there has been an expected campaign by the government to take it back. it's happened. we are hearing from potential activist that there has been 10 strikes, that there was heavy fighting and syrian state information says they are moving towards the town. there's an issue, we are seeing hundreds fleeing across the boarder. 300 families. the numbers are difficult to confirm. a lot of people coming in. we are hearing reports of desperation. the concern is that it is an area where a lot of internally displaced people have been. if the government is going in, there'll be a massive in fluk. we spoke to the deputy mayor, asking if the town could cope. he said we can take the burden of syria if it peens bashar

al-assad will go. >> thank you. >> humanitarian efforts continue, stephanie reported the political dialogue may get a boost. on day three of the second round of peace tacks. lakhdar brahimi will try to push the reforms forward, but little progress has been made as the syrian and opposition continue to trade remarks. there was a lot of debate, at least on the second day in geneva, over what the agenda was over there. any clarity on that, and what is being discussed? >> no, there's a dispute over the agenda, over the issues surrounding all of this. so far we have not had meetings here on wednesday between the two parties, but there have been meetings taking place behind me.

as you say, the russian delegation arrived, and the foreign minister had a meeting with lakhdar brahimi, the veteran negotiator, who is chairing the talks. it's clear the international community is getting involved and is deeply concerned about the deadlock of the talks, and the fact that they seem to be making no progress at all. we are hearing reports, and are trying to get them confirmed, that an american envoy and a french envoy will be here in the coming hours. there was going to be a meeting between lakhdar brahimi, the russians and americans, but it seems people are rushing to geneva, because they realised the process is really in some trouble. >> james bay the diplomatic editor. >> the highest level talks in sex years between north and south korea have been taking

place on the border. the meeting was not rare, it happened at the north's request. two rounds of dialogue lasting several hours, and more possibly to come. the event was handled with such secrecy it was not known what was on the agenda. the delegates are meeting at the border village. another coordinated move is planned. reunion for families separated by the war 50 years ago. there's tension because of planned military exercises between the u.s. and south korea. south korea calls them a provocation, and preparation for an invasion. >> it is outrageous undertaking oppressive war exercise against the other side when both sides intend to sit together to discuss and implement important issues of achieving national

reconciliation and unity. >> al jazeera's harry fawcett is in seoul. >> north and south korea have been talking for most of the day. we don't know what has been discussed. the south korean delegation on the way to the village deep inside the demilitarized zone said they wanted to discuss the smooth running of upcoming family reunions between north and south korean families separated by the end of fighting in 1953, and want to make it a regular event. it's scheduled to happen between the 20th and 25th of february. the only real information that we have from the talks themselves has come in a circuitous route through a newsagency quoting an unnamed government source, stating that each delegation has been listening calmly. the talks, according to the

south koreans, have no set zaneda and are likely to be -- gaepda and are likely to be wide-ranging. north korea have been conciliatory, and vociferous in opposing the annual south korean-u.s. exercises running through until mid-april. the question is whether, with south korea and the united states almost certainly not going to cancel or downgrade the exercises, whether it la lead north korea to pull back from pt friendly posture. >> thailand's embattled caretaker government received a boost from the court. the leader of the largest opposition party pet egged the court -- petitioned the court.

philip hammond, the defence secretary was here in race brie. he has been criticised. people are wondering why it took so long. the opposition leader was heckled by people saying, "you are coming for a photo opportuni opportunity, you are not doing enough to april our concerns", a lot of people want to know if it happens against what, will happen. the government promises grants for people to try to restore homes that have been affected. a lot of questions are arrived about where the money will come from. >> let's get an update on the weather with richard. people telling nadine that they are concerned how much worse this will get. how much worse will it get? >> a lot worse. there's two major storms on the way in. you can blame whomever you like. that's the bottom line. wettest winter in 248 years.

when i made the graphic i wondered if it was right. i looked at the stats from the met office. there's more than 20-odd days to go until the end of the month, yet we have broken the record going back to 1915. it's inevitable there'll be problems and rem rimations. >> -- rech rimations. >> there's another frontal system, an area of cloud out to the west, pushing across the u.k. these are the latest wind values, exposed areas. from the west of england, cork, the republic of ireland. we'll see higher gusts than that, between 150 and 160 across parts of whales. you can see the wind. it's whipping around. it's not just the uk, it's down to the bay of basica. huge amounts of snow across

with a heatwave is causing drought conditions in brazil. we have this report from sao paulo. >> this is a reservoir providing water to 9 million people, and 350 different municipalities, you can see how low the water levels are. it should be coming up to the base of where the tree lines are, and you can see how terribly low it is now. they are currently at 19% capacity, it's the lowest in recorded history. if you look at the ground, you get a good sense of it, normally the entire area is covered in water. the grouped has been turned into clumps of dry dirt. i spoke to a sports fisherman, and he said he has seen nothing like this before. >> translation: in the past few months the water level has been going down day by day.

i'm sitting here today fishing, tomorrow i'll sit lower as the level will go down more. >> how did sao paulo find itself in this situation. the april is -- the answer is there has been a lot of heat and little rain. the state receives 259mm of rain in january. last month they received 87mm. combine that with the fact that the state has gone through one of its hottest spells in decades, and this is the end result. there are more than 12 municipalities on a voluntary water rationing. i spoke to a representative from the state water agency, and they say they are hoping there's rain. they say that other reservoirs in the area are more than 50% full, which helps as well. the government of sao paulo

heaps the state will go into a mandatory water rationing for sao paulo, the biggest city, with well over 13 million inhab taned. as you can tell, with every day that there is no rain, the situation is getting a little worse. >> south african's main party, the democratic alliance is holding a march. they want to highlight the government failure to create jobs and deal with high unemployment. let's go to tania page in johannesburg, to give us an update. >> the da promised they wanted this to remain peace: the a.n.c. promised on its behalf to descend headquarters. at one point during the march the da were stopped by police

who were assessing the security situation among the a.n.c. reporters, and midway through the speech, about two city blocks away, we saw a huge crowd of a.n.c. supporters running towards the da march, where they stopped to hold the rally. they were brandishing sticks, and stones. the police moved in, firing stun grenades, there were reports that rubber bullets were fired. at that point the supporters moved off, moving in parallel, two city blocks apart for three or four blocks. a.n.c. supporters came closer to the da supporters. but so far the police managed to keep both sides at a distance, but it seems a face to face confrontation was avoided.
