implications are huge for the country was a gentler sam is one of gone as most senior judges sitting in the high court and dealing with the most important cases. when an ass is on the cover team came across him he was trying for men. they were accused of stealing over a hundred and fifty thousand dollars from garner's national oil company. to get access to a judge like this they first had to winnow raise clark in this case a man called gabriel. lady the middleman. he would need us to buy jed's. of course as you can see we give him his share not madge let him take said. and us wanted to find out whether they could pay to get one of the accused off the bone to the clark worked he got i mean to see the judge.
11:10 pm
the amount of money needed to tim seen in a judge's light this is not small and there says that this judge wanted around three thousand dollars more than a month's salary for a high court justice who spoke to him where the kids were given a narration and they who demanded the money be given to him so that's what you can see here is the money that has been given to give and give if i send it on to eight thousand c.d.'s handed over but the judge wants to make sure he gets a verb or a mallet he offers to meet the defendant in person to sort out the paperwork. after the money is finally handed over the lucky. femdom hopes for rain is three her accuse will get long sentences as the oil companies state owned it's the people

11:13 pm
head. deep think. wow so how many. thirty four. a nurse also briefed gone as most senior judge the chief justice to gino would say as how long is this meeting one to finish talking about we've been trying and that's. where the effort went to have our. just a few days later the chief justice suspended twenty two junior judges and began impeachment proceedings against twelve more senior ones and as was told by the president his evidence would be vital but he was warned he'd be in for a tough time. x. to me and i prepared to subject myself to that scrutiny and that says that because it's not going to go on for them i said mr president. i can't put my life on the
11:14 pm
evidence i have. no consent for the parent as an undercover journalist and nasa has been laney's life on the line for nearly twenty years i am going undercover to find out who is behind this illegal business and how they are getting away with it. initially a newspaper journalist is undercover techniques made him a television natural what's needed is government regulation and enforcement to protect our children environment and our future. it investigate corruption of time no subject was off limits. and this was singled out for his campaign journalism by the us president when he came to gone up in two thousand and nine today i'll focus on that are critical to
11:15 pm
the future of africa and the entire developing world. the marquesas opportunity health and the peaceful resolution of conflict we see that spirit and courageous journalists like us all remain and our risk his life to report the truth and if you do stories that are of universe i import and attention like this vesta kitty rex plays into human trafficking the chinese mafia sex fame dealing with kate's exploit and kate's i mean if you do that kind of story that has international impact i'm not surprised a u.s. president will recognize that. and miss home these forensic techniques fervor by qualifying as a lawyer he was most don't be in the know but he began to focus on the hidden problem of judicial corruption if you look at reports look at the granting the grittiness your t.v. reports look at the u.s.
11:16 pm
department of state report afro but only to report. always side. they can dish out. as having issues and challenges off option. i felt embarrassed as an undercover journalist that. we only left it at the route of speculation and that flash has substance to those issues. and i spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on a network of undercover agents i mean to bribe judges and court officials in every region of gone on cases they would have included family disputes fraud armed robbery and great in fact any case up to and including murder. and first the judges seem to resist the chance of extra funds for their fair sex and it's all selfish there was no results coming nothing and nobody was taking them on
11:17 pm
i was i spoke to my team it was almost like i recall one team member telling my boss what you did there was a nap in there why did you say which was that. and i felt embarrassed worse still twelve of the judges the investigators from tiger why i approached turned down the bribes and some of them even threaten to report the journalist to the police for attempted bribery could it be that gone as judges were more honest in bruma suggested. perhaps not and this is a team slowly realized what was wrong they needed to spend longer hanging around cool and to their faces became familiar sometimes we were just tagging along with relatives and not just saying anything but we had a sit in in the court and we always said at the place that i did this i only knew when he raises his head so as soon as you do that beautiful visit. they didn't look
11:18 pm
at your face and think that ok this guy is funny and i caught. in terminal a nov and gone and that is investigators went to see if they could influence the outcome of a rape case it was an appeal here in the twenty nine year old defendant wanted to reverse a conviction for raping an under-aged go and nicest thing went to plead for the young man. this is the jail and she always a word respect that high court judge and come at it and all their original fault but rather than lead us to his house that morning and met him and as you can see does have. the defendant is appealing because he claims the girl was actually sixteen at the time and the judge and so g a bush shouldn't be meeting like this but he appears willing to listen and he suggests that the girl's father should come to the court to say
11:19 pm
she wasn't really under-aged. when. in my. mind i've. come here. they judge as helping us so that the guy can walk free. so we took the money. and then we handed it over to the judges anxious nobody should know that he accepted the cash i think. and he said oh. this is i was in jail and that has his claque course not part of the incident. this
11:20 pm
was a day of judgment and not you know look very good that me and he indeed he freed this guy this was after we had been two thousand then as it is to him when therefore decided to go back to him. unless his team take a traditional gift bags of yams and more cash. i think and see here is he collecting the money that were given him. the convicted rapist was freed from a ten year sentence with hard labor to return home to the gallows neighborhood as a result of a mass is intervention. not everybody agrees with the nurses methods not even some from his own journalistic community journalists are not supposed. to be putting us intelligent agents you're not really substantially different from other
11:21 pm
causes it's an undercover m i five agents and so on we'll investigate but i metals also different you know money home i'm also rio and the us doing in seoul there which is local law where the society has been is an interest and good and so but the men thought a lot journalistic but a nurse is unashamed about his methods and believes the ends justify the means my journalism is a product of the society look i have saying i am america and you do a story we have a genesis strong citizens who would get up and ensure that no follow up and put those bad guys behind bass. yeah in the hold up in this house it is also. in the first week of september news of an ass is sting operation against the nation's judges has begun leaking out the justice space to into two judges and
11:22 pm
magistrates judges the worst. response is overwhelmingly positive news papers are full of it t.v. and radio talk shows can't get enough either they need to know why they didn't actually know a few people are very unhappy a direct threat and that is life is being made when a crowd radio station and i says he's not worried well i i've gone through it over the years and i just an odious i mean why would you threaten someone without mentioning your name that's a coward that's how i think them to be and like i said my point has always been that that is a diversion i acted and this might make light of the threat but he's been persuaded to accept twenty four hour police protection and sent his wife and family abroad he's god is inside the car with him. no no
11:23 pm
i have security i have security. somebody doesn't want me to go see the shooting and that it will be a sniper. that is your gun me. and this has prepared an official petition to the chief justice to discipline the judges we call accepting cash and he's on his way to testify to the judicial council committee here in against the way with judges he can give evidence knowing that he has immunity from prosecution for bribing judges is normally a serious criminal offense but the attorney general is the clear the nasa whistleblower which means he's protected from the consequences. it took two years for an assisting to collect five hundred hours of undercover footage. showing almost one hundred eighty judges and

11:39 pm
walking a guide telling the morning of five thirty when he's not properly dressed and you sneak into his. sitting room when you stop and gauging him in some conversation and out of gun yelling hospitality and respect he answers questions and then you put money on his table and you go away and you're going to publicize to know where you got these corrupt. i don't think i will agree with got. to his favorite this except for manasses film shows one of these investigators made in the judge's cool club at a guest house. we came across this quote clam he believed in the power of only one can see heart and instant sex the investigator known as one of an ass is by scales like to talk tough free walk happened to. he kept on telling me he was

11:42 pm
a quick conversations with him i have wanted to influence this is very an aquatic case. he took a share of the money as you can see and then set up a good meeting between us and yesterday there. he acts for a lot of men and for jess is very large and he said that normally it's ten thousand plus when you're dealing with the likes of justin berry because he's a big jared for me your name takes us to the house of justice dead this is just as day and this is me up but. yes i'm a are giving the money to justice there is no there are no quick meeting because mayo didn't want anything to be discussed there was a follow up meeting and the more unconventional bribe and this was the goods that
11:43 pm

11:44 pm
bribe will get the accused off but this is going to thirty three years old it. was shocking this was aquatic case. and because of the money you set him free. across central core complex is where the judges and their lawyers get to fully explain their actions most days and less is required to attend to and where you choose your beat which one he's given evidence in disguise even though some of his opponents object. and there's also believes that the media are using the opportunity to work out what he really looks like. so today he's asking two of his colleagues to dress up in order to deceive them. the hearings of taken another one usually twist their ashes have been for you finding
11:45 pm
an interesting one judge even faintly in dealing not with a nice but with a girl most. just said that when i entered there and i sat with him and i gave him the money he collected it suddenly i disappeared from his chair. and when he walked out he saw a white sheep or goats it's arid across the fence but hey this is africa. some of the judges have not made it to the hearings it's because they've gone off sick judge quist is one of these. and this is running with who is who show the full extent of the power that gone as judges have a coup cases no matter how serious they are or how long they last did. this case resulted from an armed robbery in two thousand and seven at this picture station the terrifying night time it has never been forgotten by the victim the

support of the other second little guy who want to buy for. the order this was just the forces. who are going to go. over what a life of this little girl after they have a. clearly the one what is the one i select just like this one is pressing my first of. all the girls start crying. crying. it took eight years for the attacker to face justice he came up before judge quest earlier this year. is a very populated hearing. and he said on many crime in i case in fact i have been in prison i would be in before christ me for and that is his crack so he makes
11:47 pm
a point come imation ten thousand by two know these people. so when we met in the over then he said it took or the. quest for calm. we have this entered their discussion. all you have almost my life. it's happened since then. it's contract on these comments. to get out the investigator hands over about a thousand dollars in local currency but it's only at the heart failure of a police. car
11:48 pm
or a store but for toyota. so to. speak out against. good wholesome. prizes where we seem to. be really whole for a lot of them talking. to us is investigating makes a further i'm eighteen but he still hasn't come with the full balance of the operator for details so it was starting to. get there me now it's. really small time wanting. to judge appears to be getting increasingly annoyed because once again he's not getting the full amount. of the smile on my. wanting him.
11:49 pm
to morrow has come. back and this is chris pratt again. and this is a six thousand cities that were passed in to him and he's taking that money he's looking at it and then he will ask how much is it and i would tell you. how much it was the final payment was made on the same day that the day. judge freebee accused in fact the deal held down the start of the day's cool proceedings court process is usually begin from that it will matter on this day was that into eleven a.m. quest was still not here because we had delayed him was he came to take them back today is the day he's going to really do the job the bed or two of them to do and lo and behold. he then decided to give that he basically read three four lines and i was it
11:50 pm
a case that had dragged on for five good years just as quest ended up in releasing as self-confessed and robber what do you think about that just taking a bird's eye think it and also don't grammars to be realistic it is realistic. every word to the court or the time in which a quarter of all five times and there are several obvious obvious was armor of us came when there were marks. busy is there only i don't know the. newly qualified graduates are cool to the bar you've gone up this is a joyful occasion but mass is expose a is also cos the major cloud over the proceedings. the song is not in press the chief justice. you are graduating at a time in
11:51 pm
a legal history well more than ever the perception of the public on the process is largely negative. allegations of bribery and corruption in the judiciary and of the legal profession in general at all time high and closer to those possibly at a lot. the chief justice is firm message to the young lawyers is one that is resonating around the well. when you have had to four judges who are caught on tape. with the prime f.a. show evidence they may have taken bribes is an indication that there's something hopelessly wrong with her system. you cannot afford to have a tradition in a country like canada that is not reliable that is not dependent that people have
11:52 pm
no confidence in. the results of this should be that those who have been proved to be corrupt should be dealt with extracted from the system and there should be going forward safeguards put in place and a new mindset which is i'm not going to succumb to such appalling acts of corruption not only because i might be caught but because it's appalling. the legal investigation is not going entirely nic is why seven of the senior judges were suspended in early october but one lower court judges no longer be an investigator because of issues with some of the evidence their own why the concerns too that unless is expose a has backfired on the criminal justice system the real disaster of this investigation is the damage to the confidence in the judicial system and their oil
11:53 pm
