president says he's personally following the case of the saudi journalist. who disappeared in this country's consciousness tumble on tuesday the image that appears to have been a warning from interpol's former chief just before he disappeared in china beijing says that mung way is under investigation. five thousand people feared missing with another two thousand dead the scale of the indonesia earthquake and tsunami disaster is revealed. partial results in brazil show the far right candidate jaya with a strong lead in the presidential election his populist appeal has stunned mainstream parties discredited by corruption crime and economic recession but also not appears to be short of an outright majority a former army captain has polarized the nation especially after he was stabbed last month he's alienated large sections of society with the soldiers to comply with

comments were both some of his main rival is the left wing candidate for the dad he's a former mayor of some recently replaced former president louis ignacio lul of the silva as the workers' party presidential candidate if no candidate gets more than fifty percent of the valid ballots they'll be a second round in three weeks time lived out while latin america and it's to see a new man who's in rio de janeiro so is also the argo be able to win this right or is it going to go to a second round. hello. very very difficult to imagine that he won't win in the knock off which is then going to be in three weeks time the latest figures and now practically all of the votes counted is forty six point seven percent of the votes for. versus twenty eight point four for. he has

a huge amount of. space that he's going to have to make up for and it doesn't really seem really he's going to be able to find those votes from anywhere even if you add up all of the other votes for the candidates that went for this voted for the center or other center left wing presidential candidates it doesn't seem like the numbers are there joining me to talk a bit more about that now is political analyst daniel. daniel you know this is a surprise because because. less than a month ago was polling much. much lower and suddenly brazilians are showing who they really will appear to want is there any possibility at all that fernando had dad could make up for this now though they're not very big possibilities i think it's very very difficult to choose. for another two one in this election i think that brazilians showing that they want someone very very

strong very a little bit aggressive for the situation that we are leaving now in for another that is a professor or is someone a little soft so i think it's going to have a very he's going to have a very hard time to change their votes and when this election will you mentioned that they want somebody who is stronger and certainly balsam nat'l has talked about for example fighting crime with more violence saying that it's the police should go in and kill all the criminals and ask questions later he has very often rather simplistic solutions for very complex problems is that really what you think do you think is that going to do the trick yes because it seems that brazilian this on the one discuss ideas the what action. has convinces people that he's a man of action and that he's going to fight the crime that his going to fight the corruption in it seems that it's soon there for people right now what does this

mean for minorities what does it mean for the for gays for blacks for women's rights for example probably they are going to have a hard time with both son are in power they are going to have to fight for their rights in its not going to be easy because it seems when we see the the the defaults for the congress that he is going to have a huge support with people that have ideas close to him you know this election has been followed very closely by the rest of latin america. there is this feeling that what happens in brazil spreads to the rest of the region is there a reason for concern i think it varies because brazil is it's a leader country in the region it's the biggest country in the region and what happens here. and power in the neighbor can trees so what's happening in brazil it can begin a movement

a right movement in america. well we'll have to see what happens but certainly some would say that the dye has been cast of course i have had not had that there is going to do his best to as will opponents of ball so narrow but his his supporters right now are celebrating and celebrating big back to the seventy thanks to save human there in rio de janiero let's hear now from our zero three is a bull who's in. we're here in ne that. is no where people have gathered to celebrate where they see the victory. even though there's going to be a second round they have also here the battle inflation will do all this is a. running mate the former general the man who is in the past has said that corruption scandals continue to happen in brazil the military will have to be involved in talking to some of the people there saying that something new needs to happen in brazil a new party and that's why many of them voted for it. and not far away from here we

were at the headquarters of the workers' party of disappointment that night and night here they're saying that they need a new strategy to fight this movement created by balsa and i don't in brazil very many of them have told us that they're worried about what will happen to this country's democracy if a person like jade also not overcomes brazil next president and many of them are afraid that they will lose some of the benefits that minorities are under for a game while the workers' party was in power turkey's president says that he's personally following the case of missing saudi journalist jamal khashoggi which says that he's hoping for a positive outcome turkish officials believe that jamal khashoggi was killed while visiting the saudi consulate in istanbul he left saudi arabia last year saying he feared retribution for his critical reporting of the kingdom's leadership. reports now from istanbul. jamal hershel g.

has been missing for five days the well known saudi journalist was last seen entering his country's consulate in istanbul on true's day and hasn't emerged since friends and colleagues from around the world now fear the worst they said he entered the consulate and he left and we don't know what happened but his wife was out there so he didn't leave so that's a that's a fact and i think you're probably true that he didn't leave because the video which you'll see there in a few days i mean it's just not credible and i think anybody who has a sense of decency should understand that this is something not acceptable it's not acceptable citizen because it's new due to a different country and just abducted or whatever i mean was the operation since his disappearance senior turkish officials have held back from speaking on record in an attempt to avoid the diplomatic fallout with the saudis however on sunday president right up taber iran had this to say version of the only role that i think

the prosecutor general and a standalone extensively investigating this incident from a security and intelligence perspective checking of the records of departure an interest them by the airport in particular is ongoing we are awaiting the results of these investigations that said for us to see such an incident taking place in my country mr jamal is an old friend of mine that's why my expectation is still in good faith i wish we don't come up against a situation that we don't desire i do believe that the defenders of freedom and freedom of opinion in our country will follow this matter as president of turkey i will follow this closely and i will announce the results no matter what to the world. was the former editor in chief of saudi media outlets are not up and on what on and was closed to members of the saudi royal family last year however and after the rise of crown prince mohammed bin said a man was banned from writing allegedly because of his comments on the kingdom's relationship with u.s. president donald trump shortly after her show. she fled his homeland to live in

self-imposed exile in washington he was not necessarily a dissident i disagree with that description he was a loyal saudi citizen he had his own vision of what the country should be doing that type of freedom needs the type of reform it needs and maybe in the final analysis that's what got him in trouble he was last seen entering the saudi consulate in istanbul it's around one pm on tuesday several hours later a saudi official told his fiance who was waiting outside that he wasn't in the building turkish security sources say a group of saudi officials flew into stumble on the day of his disappearance and were at the consulates when herschel she was there three days later turkey's foreign ministry summoned saudi arabia's ambassador to ankara and crown prince mohammed bin some months said turkish police could search the saudi consulates they then invited journalists in to show cultural jew was not there after turkish police

announced they were conducting a murder investigation saudi arabia state news agency denied accusations that he was murdered in their consulates the washington post which questions she wrote opinion pieces for said if the reports of jamal's murder a true it's a monstrous and unfathomable act tomorrow was or as we hope is a committed courageous journalist the disappearance of casualty is i think further strain to talk of saudi relations with officials here are saying they will be releasing security camera video as well as other evidence if an acceptable and convincing explanation from the saudis is not forthcoming. they stumble. a weather update next year and i was there that results in boston is elections where a man who wants to break up the country could take the reins of power. the countdown continues for the u.s. midterm elections in november will have more from the republican heartland texas.
