court before the end of it you have to watch and it seems like the anticorruption officials are moving as quickly as they can this case in particular the believe has to do with a corruption case involving a subsidiary of the financial of the finance ministry of which not chip was in charge when he was not only the prime minister of the country but also the finance minister of this country and they're also hearing reports that not expected to be charged as wednesday to not fall. before we really know exactly what the charges are going to be they don't. whisper in terms of once what happens next to any idea at this point of i wondered what the what the timeline is for this and what mr najibullah reza has had to say in his defense. well in three hundred

the case is going to take because we don't yet know what it's going to be again. the current prime minister mahathir mohamad and he has said he expects the several charges filed against. corruption bribery. not just in several of the charges not just his own has maintained his innocence all this was in the time when he was prime minister at the time when he had been in the general election and may have been tainted and if he says he hasn't done anything wrong given what was happening in one and even though he was even there the finance ministry which would have been tons of was also in charge of one entity because it was a state development fund not just says. the money in his bank account the old gifts and he's also said that they i ten police have seized his house and property linked in these won't get that he's been maintaining he has done nothing wrong and he has

not sent then the charge of the boston court i guess we will be sharing all this in a lot more detail. indeed for the moment flawlessly lifeless on the line first there from kuala lumpur with that breaking news story the former malaysian prime minister najib razak arrested by anticorruption investigate his how they've been found alive and well but now the focus turns to getting them out and all the indications are that could take some time the twelve boys and their coach of a thai youth football team will be supplied with food until then they were found late monday by british divers soft to being trapped for nine days time military says it's now looking at the tricky task of freeing them from the flooded underground system it's called highly has the latest on the rescue operation in chiang rai. they became known as the missing thirteen here in thailand but they're not missing any more but their ordeal is not over the boys and their coats were

discovered at nine fifteen pm local time here but they are still in there it's going to be a very difficult process to get them out officials here are trying to hatch a plan the best plan to get them out safely medical technicians are in with them and i will be throughout the day throughout the hours making sure that they're in good health so far it sounds like there's no major health issue for now obviously the very hungry they're being fed supplies have been brought in but it's going to be very difficult to take them out that is because that water level is still very high now it's stopped raining but there's still a lot of water in there in the pumping is still going on so that's the biggest issue is the water level because even though it's not raining here the hills around here drain into that system that we've been speaking with family members who have been here for this entire ordeal ten days they say that officials are telling them that they're going to try to move family members to chiang rai city prevents the capital here to the hospital there that's where they will take the boys when they come out and bring them to that hospital we're hearing that they'll probably be

taken out from the stairway here and then they'll be put into anyone's is taken to a how a pad it makes it how it had nearby. then helicoptered over to chiang rice city now it's about an hour drive obviously a lot less time by helicopter but right now the family there are very happy but they're very concerned now it's how quickly these boys and come out and right now we're not getting any of the case and really of how long that's going to take. a germany's chancellor has managed to save her governing coalition after reaching a compromise on migration angela merkel agreed to build border camps for asylum seekers and to tighten the border with austria but within hours austria responded saying it will tighten its southern border rather than risk having migrants rejected by germany stranded on its soil dominic cain has the latest from berlin. this migration route is a crisis that just won't go away for anglo-american new sooner had she agreed a form of words of a policy proposal with hope of varian allies to avert a crisis with them now the social democrats the other big element of the grand

coalition of flexing their muscles saying that they don't like the idea of transit centers where people can be detained before they get deported from germany they don't like that idea they do seem to be prepared to discuss the other elements of the plan but this idea of transit census and also sure about the other thing to say is that the austrian government is now following on from this decision by the conservatives in the east the german government saying that they have to strengthen their borders that's interesting because it's almost the effect of this wave of migration backlash as it were travelling through countries people now talking tougher on immigration talking about controlling their borders here in germany as i say the social democrats the focus is on them now is a meeting taking place later on today perhaps at sixteen g.m.t. perhaps it will become much clearer the next step is going to ins unfold as it were of this migration round. of the u.n. refugee agency is appealing to jordan to open its borders to syrians trying to

escape the fighting in doubt a comes as jordan's foreign minister heads to moscow for talks on the war in syria about two hundred seventy thousand syrians have been forced. in their homes by the russian backed government offensive to recapture did are from rebels neither jordan nor israel are letting in refugees from the fighting activists in their ass a government forces of send reinforcements to the front lines around the town of toughness more now from santa harder in beirut. jordan has been facilitating and mediating talks between the russian military and rebel factions in their off province but those talks have collapsed the opposition saying they're not ready to sit at the negotiating table because the conditions that are being put there by the russian military are just unacceptable in their words it's humiliating for them to accept us now the jordanian foreign minister will be heading to moscow for talks with his russian counterpart on wednesday to try to achieve a ceasefire the jordanian foreign minister saying that we need to find some sort of a settlement that will allow the displaced people to return to their homes and

allow these people to feel safe and safe is the key word because at the end of the day what the opposition is demanding is not to be forcibly displaced like we've seen in in other military operations like an eastern will to and in aleppo they want to be able to stay in their homes but they want some sort of security guarantees because they have a little trust in the syrian government as well as the syrian government's allies so they're asking for some sort of a a guarantor or maybe jordan for example but this is unlikely to be accepted by the syrian government camp which in their words they want to restore sovereignty their sovereignty over the whole of syria and the syrian government has the upper hand on the ground they have retaken sixty percent of that off province two hundred seventy thousand people according to the united nations have been uprooted from their homes government troops reinforcing their positions in front lines which really is a message that we are going to continue with this military operation if the rebels

choose not to surrender so the opposition in a very difficult situation jordan now stepping in again to try to see if they can find some sort of a settlement that will be acceptable to all sides that will prevent further bloodshed and devastation. all right still ahead on al-jazeera promises of help for a hindu refugees in desperate need after a high powered visit. hello there were plenty of showers across the southeast in parts of asia at the moment the satellite picture is showing plenty of cloud across many parts of our map with a particularly heavy downpours just making their way towards the southern parts of vietnam at the moment now this region again will see some very sharp showers as we head through the day on wednesday but we're going to see something of a break around parts of borneo and westwards as we head into thursday so for kayo

things one is that we really need to. address it's just draw my with psychosocial interventions into that we need to address the root causes of these big through and find solutions back in their homes that have to be pretty fundamental for these people to go back. anger over two thousand migrant children separated from their parents has led to mass protests in the united states but the u.s. still holds another twelve thousand of them in custody who crossed the border without their parents concern about their treatment has been an issue for rights groups for years now a court is about to hear their case as she has returned to her fortes. several recordings of migrant children separated from their parents have emerged over the last few weeks. and the response has been massive and what a court hearing on tuesday and then the abuse of migrant children by u.s.

their parents in recent weeks have been sent here but a manager says many children are falsely accused the youth were being screened as being involved individuals and then when they came into our care. and they were assessed by our clinical in case management staff they weren't necessarily identified as being involved individuals in fact aid groups say these are simply children traumatized by violence in their home countries the reason they sought asylum in the us and that once they are traumatized further. lawyers say that information children give to social workers and medical staff is used to determine whether to send them to facilities like shenandoah for example a child expressing fear of gang violence may be classed as a gang member it is very troubling that whatever they tell their social worker their caseworker is not staying within that confidentiality and the child is trusting my caseworker and it is very troubling when that information is being shared outside of the scope of why that caseworker and social worker is is helping
