the one today. this time i'll just hear of the most memorable moments with al jazeera was when i was on air as host of a back with the crowds in tahrir square to ok. if something happens anywhere in the world how does iraq is in place we're able to cover news like music organizations. were able to do it properly. and nearly everyone described how they had been basing. it on the silent they are terrified about moving to the main town of largo. shutting down a stray the power and water at its prison camp in papua new guinea forcing out six

hundred asylum seekers. hello i'm this is al jazeera live from doha also coming up in kenya government supporters celebrate while the opposition demands a new vote off the country's presidential election rerun. two indictments and one guilty plea a legal case surrounding the trump campaign and russia takes shape. and moves to take control of catalonia as government rumors the region's leader has left the country. now there are widespread reports of looting on a strangely and run prison camp on minus island where six hundred refugees have barricaded themselves inside refuse. using to move the astray and government has

been forced to close the facility by papua new guinea's supreme court australia's cut off food water and electricity supplies in a bid to force the remaining refugees to move into the community but the men are refusing to leave citing safety concerns refugees say man asylum locals entered shortly after a stray and private security personnel left on tuesday calls like around hundred hundred fifty men as they came around in the center of this loading around taking everything we just left over boxes air conditioner and. four years ago australia began sending refugees to try to get to its shores to remote island prisons in papua new guinea and no roof instead on tuesday the man asylum prison will close the refugees held there are demanding that they be allowed to stay saying forced eviction into the papua new guinea and community is dangerous

even the local community. every day. is trying to walk away from us frustrating us policy did deter people from trying to reach its shores by boat but its legacy was more than two thousand people left in limbo human rights groups condemned conditions in the prisons and demanded they closure after papua new guinea and court said detaining refugees was illegal australia agreed to close the man asylum prison and pay refugees compensation but the refugees don't want to leave they say few preparations have been made for their lives outside. after locals broke in and attacked them in twenty fourteen one was killed there fearful of worse violence when they're not protected by guards i spoke to forty refugees and asylum seekers and nearly everyone described how they had been beaten stabbed or assaulted on menace island they're terrified about moving to

the main town of largo australia's government says those it calls genuine refugees should start new lives in papua new guinea some may later be transferred to the united states under a deal between australia and the obama administration those it considers not genuine refugees must return to their countries of origin this is a crazy situation everybody's been screaming about wanting to get out of the place where we say that we're going to close it and move them into a different facility and require those the refugees to go back to their country of origin and now they want life australia's government says the prison closure is a matter. the papua new guinea but on sunday p n g's immigration minister released a statement it says the refugees remain the responsibility of australia and that p n g is concerned about human rights issues particularly the removal of health services once the prison is closed one australian has gone to extreme lengths to

highlight what she calls her government's lack of compassion for a month she's been on a hunger strike i'm not doing this because it's fun and i'm not wanting to harm my myself i don't understand what has happened to us we've got to a place where we don't care any more refugees amount of silent fear violence on tuesday their advocates say the men on madness and families held on the roof should be transferred to australia or another country able to resettle refugees safely andrew thomas is following developments from sydney joins us now live from there so first of all andrew clarify for us what the situation is when we say there is looting in the camp inmates under attack. well the first thing i should say is that it's very difficult to get reliable information from an aside and we as journalists are denied access to mount aside

and when papa new guinea occasionally gives us these they specifically say we are not to go to mount so we are a lion talking to the refugees inside the prison and elsewhere on the island and n.g.o.s who want to have them all out into the sort clip there from a refugee who i've talked to and met many times abdul aziz right before that report there and he has been speaking to amnesty who are on the island today and you saw his plate that he is reporting that locals from elsewhere amount of saddam's have been trying to break into the prison now he doesn't say they're attacking prisoners which was the favorite he has said that they are looting those items of value inside the prison because all the gods by the path and you get me and god and you're straining god's left overnight last night so that is what is going on they say at the moment the refugees now it's a very old situation because these a prison is he did not want to leave the prison because they are fearful of life.

going to members use or marple that in twenty fourteen locals who didn't want this prison in their area broke in and they beat to many asylum seekers refugees one of them was killed similar not quite such a dramatic instance of happened when prisoners have left the prison on day release in the last couple of years as well the prisoners the refugees a fearful that if they leave the prison they will be attacked and they are also fearful that now there are no gods to protect them inside the prison locals might break in and attack them it sounds again unreliable in the sense that we haven't seen it ourselves but from what we're hearing from refugees that locals have already broken in and so far they've been looting physical items inside that prison under this is beginning to sound like an incredible twenty first century wild west tale all that no talks negotiations any kind of mediation effort going on to try and. find a solution so that hundreds of people left without water electricity food you know

in this kind of situation. it's a desperate situation and what's happening is the australians are saying that it's papua new guinea's responsibility happen you get. on sunday saying no this these refugees are australia's responsibility nobody really seems to be taking responsibility. for the claims by the refugees and n.g.o.s like amnesty are overblown they're exaggerating things and trying to make a mountain out of a molehill and they're trying to exaggerate the physical danger that there is a minus on the australians are saying yes the prison is closing but we have provided other accommodation nearby in the nearby town lauren. where these refugees can live i'm the states that have those three buildings two of them are only hall built so there is only one building it's not big enough to take the refugees even if they were prepared to go which then not now. because that's of course the other question what happens to the six hundred men in that sense some of them we believe

will go to the united states again i mentioned in my reports a deal was done with the obama administration for. refugees people who were new guinea agree genuine refugees for them to be settled in the us but that is a. process and a couple of dozen most refugees have gone to the us and this has been known about for well over a year and the six hundred who are being told if you don't move along down move out of the present do is where some of you one day might end up going to united states but in the meantime they're very fearful for their physical wellbeing for their lives frankly on mount a silent without the protection. and when you can you get the situation seems like a mess and nobody seems to be taking responsibility for it. from sydney. all eyes are on kenya's main opposition leader a day after president of the other was declared the winner of the presidential

election rerun kenyatta took ninety eight point two percent of the vote despite a voter turnout below forty percent has remained silent promise to address his followers after calling for another vote for me the miller reports from nairobi the official announcement that who kenyatta had secured his second term in office was no surprise for millions of kenyans but a low voter turnout of thirty eight percent has raised questions around the legitimacy of the selection which was ordered by the supreme court after it and now the august presidential vote saying the electoral commission had committed illegalities. ninety percent. of the same. ones. all right thank you. the.

state. and. we trace. the rerun was marred by violent protests when opposition leader raila odinga and his national super alliance party boycotted the election preventing at least one point eight million kenyans in opposition strongholds from voting. in total at least twelve million kenyans stayed away from the polls observer mission say besides the impact of the boycott violence and intimidation kept many of the voters away from polling stations. joe you describe the vote as a sham with the electoral commission not making the reforms the opposition had demanded for it to participate in the vote what you and me every other issue that

last time is present in this election. and what has happened is that this time around i think i was in a crisis of legitimacy a crisis of trying to shore up the numbers so that it appears that there is a legitimate mandate for president and in the course of they have done i mean my general things i can think of at least seventeen different grounds from the official even if the election is challenged at the supreme court there are concerns the courts may not act independently concerns around the independence of the judiciary was heightened when the court refused to hear a petition to perspire own last week's rerun saying there weren't enough judges present whether or not this election is challenge legally they are many kenyans that hope this final announcement will bring months of political tensions and uncertainty to an end but is kenya to address the nation asking for unity

welcome back you're watching out time to recap our headlines now there are widespread reports of looting on a stray and run prison camp where six hundred refugees are barricaded themselves inside refusing to move this training government has been forced to close the facility by papua new guinea supreme court. kenya's main opposition leader is expected to announce his next move a day after the president was declared the winner of the election we won. ninety eight point two percent of the vote despite a voter turnout below forty percent. the white house is dismissing charges against three former advisers to the u.s. president's campaign saying none of it shows donald trump colluded with russia to influence the election oh man effort and rick gates of pleaded not guilty to

a range of charges of looting tax evasion. on our top story now the closure of these training run prison camp on man a silent katie should see is a research a special izing in the asia pacific region family international she joins us now from minus island on skype good to have you with us it's difficult for a journalist to get a full picture of what's going on since they can't visit the facility that easily i understand you're in touch with inmates the pictures sounds really dire tell us what you are hearing is going on right now man a silent. so we went today to the refugee detention center at lumber i'm with the astray and it's already said they were closing today essentially what that means is that the men have not been provided with food or water for two days now they've been told the saints will close as last five p.m. it's just five now and essentially early this morning the astray and authorities

will be out all the same to abandon these refugees essentially. and they have serious concerns for their safety on manison and whether they leave the facility or not so i think they've barricaded themselves into the same time they have of course into attacks on the same time inside the same time one being in april this year where shots were fired by the defense also of course the refugees are all quite alarmed and you follow these these threats that the defense force will move into her mourning and no one really quite knows what that means ok what do you make of a straight authorities line on this is this is a problem of their own making alternative accommodation has been provided for them but they are deliberately refusing to avail themselves of that well essentially if you offer people a choice under torture it's not really a choice settle and so all the a strain of government has done is off that one prison or another the refugees have

concerns about their safety and their security if they may close a town many of the locals are saying they don't want refugees here and that it's a stray is problem so why are they not dealing with the matter so i mean i think it's very real safety and sense here that we have to take into consideration and we essentially have the strain of government abandoning refugees and leaving them here in a very vulnerable situation barricaded into a detention center where they feel it's unsafe to chile opo anywhere it seems like a forest is a pos in the responsibility to each other on this one who should bear the responsibility do you think for these people. ultimately the responsibility lies with the strange government these people came to a strange seeking asylum they were forcibly sent any you know this arrangement was in. any. i mean it's. got. it.
