says the demonstration was against the expulsion of two poor indian refugees they live among host communities in the eastern town of come and. as an administrator i cannot accept the brothers and sisters die here in congress as you know the story is very clear that these people will cooperate with them even today we continue to cooperate with them. during these political crisis began in april twenty fifth and president pm to indeed to launch his bid for a third term in office opposition and rights groups say it was illegal and unconstitutional what started with street protests in the capital later became violent conflict across the country. the government accused of extradition killings and torture to silence critics denies that four hundred thousand people left the country because of the violence most of them live in camps like this one in tanzania both government agents and armed opposition have been accused of operating

ministry says troops initially fired in the air but became overwhelmed off the stones were thrown at them at least thirty six burned in refugees and one congolese officer were killed in come on you're in south kivu province there are today shin says another one hundred seventeen were injured thirty nine of those were gravely wounded and had to be evacuated by helicopter to the city of kabul now earlier we spoke to jason stearns he's the director of the congo a research group at new york university's center for international cooperation he says there's a bigger political picture to consider regarding the incident. it must be said on the issue of whether these people were refugees or not most of them were not living in a refugee camp they were staying in host communities most of the people apparently were of the socio ethnic group. many tutsi. now have gone over towards the opposition although it's a mixed picture and burundi. and so it's possible that some of those refugees felt

that they were being targeted by the burning government did want to go back and to call these government then collaborated with early government and say back in general in the past several years the congolese government has been a friend of the government in fact as karen currency's of the president of burnley has come under increased international criticism of the congo as one of its its one of its remaining allies in that and so it's interesting that this is happening at the moment in the eastern congo there have been accusations in fact that some of the people who carried out the killings were not on these but actually and soldiers dressed up in call these uniforms and so as i said it's a confusing situation but a very great one had happened they say they're investigating whether more people were involved in friday's bomb attack on our london underground train that injured people the searching the home that southwest of london resting an eighteen year old man in the departure area of the southern port of. the has law. a day

despite the arrest the threat level stated critical following a meeting of the government's emergency cabinet it means an attack could be imminent an indication police believe they could be suspects or possibly materials related to friday's rush hour bombings still at large the heightened threat level announced on friday night means hundreds of armed police are being replaced by military personnel so they can be deployed on the streets and on public transport across the u.k. and while the metropolitan police are urging people to carry on as normal they are also reminding them to stay vigilant based on previous attacks those measures are unlikely to last more than a few days but the debate over how to stop such random attacks in the future will surely go on much longer nadine barber al jazeera london. and coming up on al-jazeera iraq's prime minister threatens to use force if housed kurdish referendum turns violent. power. new zealand's march against
