extraordinary and confusing situation here is lula going to be freed from prison or law. past anybody's guess as we speak he is still in prison including cheever innocence it could achieve that could change at any time the judge in the southern city of port au lait gray who made the initial appeal for him to be released is due to speak any moment now he has insisted that the group be released on a.v.s. corpus he should be allowed out. of school the appeals available to him on a twelve year one month sentence for money laundering and corruption of the judges and especially search your model of the judge who wants the initial inquiry who puts lou they're in prison he has said that the judge made you a has no authority that new should serve his term and prison brazilians on both sides are adding their opinions many out on the streets in gucci run cell follow expressiveness supports the loser of those on social media saying he's

a criminal and should be serving his time in prison so a very confused situation with legal experts on both sides judges on both sides saying some say he should be released others saying he should serve his time in prison. is still a popular figure in the country is there a fear that if he is not allowed to compete in upcoming elections it could it could be very destabilizing. what that's certainly the fear of many people in brazil i mean he's got until the end of august to put his name forward for those elections in october the opinion polls his supporters are absolutely convinced he's the most popular candidate and he would win those elections with an immensely popular president when he so between two thousand and three and two thousand and ten but a large number of brazilians on the other side of the political spectrum don't want to see him back and as i say they believe he's a criminal and should be serving his time in prison so that is very much

a part of the right structure a country divided and that is the center of that division is the former president in the saloon the student silver who will along has expressed his innocence he believes he's the victim of a political vendetta against him and who are the brazilian supposed to really which of the judges they supposed to believe it's very very difficult situation hopefully we'll get more information in the coming hours thank you very much for now daniel shiner with the latest on that story you know with al jazeera live from london much more still ahead devastating floods leave at least eighty five people dead and more unaccounted for across japan as donald trump prepares to announce his latest u.s. supreme court nominee we'll look at who's in the running and what it could mean for the country.

and i bet it must be dry for most of us in australia at the moment we did have a fair amount of rain fair amount of snow too but that system is pulling away towards the east the next area of cloud is here but it's not really bringing us anything too heavy in the way of wet weather just making the sunshine heel a bit milky at times still thank all for the southeast corner we're looking at a top temperature of around twelve there in melbourne it is warmer towards the west where perth we're getting to the dizzy heights of around nineteen or twenty degrees . as we head through the next couple of days over towards new zealand and here is pretty stormy this area of cloud is not only brought us some very heavy rain but also some very very strong winds as well the whole system is still spiraling its way across us as we head through monday and it will be cold enough to give us a lot of snow for parts of the south island eventually though as we head through monday into tuesday things will begin to calm down and then more of us will see some dry weather and the winds will be easing as well if we had up further north for many of us in japan it is far calm and out so that's good news but there's

really not too far away and it's gathering here it is over the korean peninsula stretching up through key issue northern japan that as we head through tuesday heavy downpours of from this particularly over the korean peninsula but for now for many of us in honshu thank you she does look like it should stay dry. capturing a moment in time snapshots of our lives other stories. providing a glimpse into someone else's work out inspiring documentaries from impassioned filmmakers everybody's going to. circle for. us on al-jazeera.

quick look at the top stories four boys have been rescued in the first phase of an operation to get a football team out of a cave in thailand phase two is due to start on monday. police say that a woman who was exposed to the nerve agent in the town of ames breed last week has died police suspect forty four year old dawn sturgis came into contact with the same batch of novacek used in an attack on a former russian spy and his daughter. in march. and if european and eritrea have agreed to reopen embassies in each other's capitals after that leaders held a historic summit to end decades of conflict. now at least eighty

five people have been killed and dozens more are missing in japan after three straight days of torrential rain evacuation orders are in place for nearly two million people and multiple landslide warnings have been issued a large scale rescue operation has been launched by minister described it as a race against the clock as max bania reports. large parts of japan haven't seen flooding like this in generations the country inundated by high water and rivers of mud dozens already did swept away in swollen rivers were buried by landslides and its hole is expected to rise even though even though we haven't been able to confirm the safety of a lot of people in the are many who are stranded facing the terror of impending inundation and waiting for rescue. operation is now a race against the clock. nearly two million people have been ordered to evacuate their homes another two point three million asked to leave voluntarily the south and western regions have been particularly hard hit. in chorus hundreds of patients

were risk huge from this hospital elsewhere in the city more than a thousand people remain trapped some of used social media to plead for help others are taking the risk used upon themselves just a little from what i went to my father's family home but it's hopeless. study we were hoping to find to pay for it but we found only one japan is used to natural disasters earthquakes volcanic eruptions and flooding a common but seldom on the scale more than fifty thousand rescue workers police and military personnel have been deployed this rainfall is hitting basically everywhere at once so there's no it's difficult for the emergency services to prioritize where they should go first because there are so many things happening all at once and obviously if a road is washed out or bridges destroyed even if you have a nice fire engine or ambulance you can't get to some of the places that you need

to go to in coachy prefix twenty six centimeters of rain fell in three hours the heaviest downpours since records began more than forty years ago and monday's forecast office little comfort and. heavy rain will continue in the area from western to eastern japan and it will be historic torrential rainfall which could be the heaviest rain ever recorded. in some places flood waters have receded leaving grim sites like dead fish and crushed cars the search for survivors could take days to clean up possibly much longer. al-jazeera. well donald trump is due to announce his latest u.s. supreme court nominee on monday and it's significant because his decision will probably swing the court firmly towards the right as a now a general consensus about who's in the top three first stop is brett kavanaugh he began his career as a clerk to retired justice kennedy the fifty three year old recently voice

disagreement with the court decision that allowed a teenager on authorized immigrant to get an abortion then as raymond keith pledge a fifty one year old six circuit appeals court judge he is seen as supporting originalism that's integrity in the constitution along the lines of its meaning at the time of enactment amy kone barrett is viewed as the outside choice she is a full a professor of law and member of the people of praise religion and a favorite among social conservatives so to speak to john hendren who's following the story from washington loza front runners john but who's the likely favorite. well cavanagh is the guy people are betting on believe it or not there are betting sites online and in las vegas where people bet money on which of these candidates will be picked and kavanaugh leads not only in those sort of analysis that you see in newspapers here but also on those sites as well and there are some good reasons for that but there are some mitigating factors as well a couple of problems with him he was a staff secretary for president george w.

bush donald trump does not particularly like the bushes he ran against jeb bush and he recently criticized the first president bush also he worked for kenneth starr kenneth starr prosecuted president bill clinton and what that does is it gives the democrats a paper trail and a lot of questions that they can ask him delaying this whole process and the republicans really don't want this to be delayed because in november are midterm elections and control of congress could change hands so that something that will be thinking about catholic church is considered safe likable but according to those who know president trump dull and personality mean so much to this president and then of course there's barrett the social conservative she would be also another controversial pick because she's had a lot of academic writings about abortion the democrats would definitely seize on that a key issue for them and then there's talk that trump is actually considering a fourth candidate one who was the runner up last time around and that is thomas

hardiman he's got a few things going for him one of them that trump likes his sort of personal story he was the first in his family to graduate from college once drove a taxi and was recommended by trump sr who happens to be a federal judge in philadelphia he has very little record on abortion and affirmative action of those are things that are important to republicans but what's interesting here is that trump has set this all up like a game show like he used to when he was on the apprentice he may be boosting these names on purpose one at a time just to raise interest for this prime time decision where he unveils his nominee on monday night. all right so then how difficult is it going to be then for trying to push through his nominee at the end of the day. well he's got an advantage as a fifty one forty nine split among republicans and democrats in the senate but he can't afford to lose a vote and that's one of the reasons he's been traveling around to these republican states that have democratic senators and is talking up his nominees he wants to be

able to flip those senators the democrats would like to hold together and block this nomination maybe pull a few republicans on their side but they have not had a really good track record of doing that who ever this nominee is going to be they will be profoundly conservative everyone on the list is they'll also be comparatively young and that means they will likely dominate the court's decisions for years to come and of course kennedy was it was a. switch vote so he was he with the determining factor in many of these important issues including abortion and gay rights in this candidate is likely to go the other way based on this list all right thank you very much for the latest on that from washington john hendren. at least ten people have died in tokyo after a train crash near the. seventy three others were injured when five carriages came off the rails close to the city of around one hundred kilometers west of the train's destination istanbul the train was carrying more than three hundred sixty

the prisoners across the country are stuck in police station lock ups while they wait for space to be freed up for many family visits are their only hope of food and your investigators claim that several detainees have died of hunger. venezuelan enzio window to freedom monitored almost two hundred temporary detention centers last year they found that nearly two thirds were cleaned so rubbish and human waste called up and this is was right more than sixty percent didn't have separate cells for women and that no cuts were two hundred fifty percent of their maximum capacity the crush of people has led to many police forces resorting to a radical and illegal solution keeping prisoners simply struck some patrol calls when they run out of cells meanwhile the wheels of the venezuelan justice system turn slowly to speed them up or at least make conditions will bearable you have to
