for the russian government to support the crimean people because people are here to be and there's a cigarette or cheer or if. there is. let's . talk about. the world watched impotently as russian forces took control of the entire peninsula. veteran human rights activist and crimean tatar leader jimmy live received an unexpected approach from the former president of the russian republic. meant to move live who was acting as a go between for moscow. russia. risky russian of crew members he reported your memory of his authority for march. they were perhaps

the rigors man thanks they didn't occur what you were but i must give the storms their friends which i'm sure that a much discretion. in mid march to me live was asked to receive a call from my little home of the run. for a better way to live one spot you know. you had to look good spend sort of going to use and. dark with arms and yet it is just the bottom of the sheet there who needs around the turn of the. rather put them citizens goodness on the nose robot or is it the little party that runs order of things that can be regarded. when you discover the. card where it. dumps the grahams can drive better in person because in a grim aggressive. they're up to go too far or is there isn't there what if the hurdle for a marshal in order to refute richard riordan the serious course russians are. not

only did put in have no intention of taking his troops out of crimea he had another insurgency planned. similar taney asleep as most coups troops began arriving in crimea pro russian protests broke out in an area known as adama us in eastern ukraine. it would soon lead to an all out war and surge and supported by russian troops and military equipment pushed ukraine grabbing town after town region after really. one of the key aims denied by moscow was to establish land access to crimea and in the process create a great to russia. initially the ill equipped ukrainian was pushed back but no one in the russian military had anticipated the determination ordinary ukrainians who volunteered in their thousands to counter insurgency.

put in stream of land access to crimea had been swapped. back on the crimean peninsula with moscow's forces in total control a referendum was hastily arranged which the pro russians easily won it was absolutely clear and fair that eighty five percent of. operation was for near great joy in russia. despite world condemnation russia now claim crimea as its own. and in the sick that it is you think it will. be when you're back with that return they didn't look at your best image watching got a dream so not sure but if you didn't that let you know legumes important visit you in the formal the good stuff but the. law says that what they kill it does not like . it was not in the foot and it was holding

national accountability bureau or old court at ten fifty three time former prime minister of pakistan two are not there seven years in jail over ideology. he was however exonerated and flagship reference against him it should be remembered that he was given an eleven year sentence by the court in the evan fear apartment cage which was. beyond his means the main case against him but had today his political supporters have been coming out in numbers they've had photos with the police but that situation is now under control now why should he have had also been fined twenty five million dollars he need to be taken in an armored rake headed back to jane it should be that member dead right now out on bail because his lawyers had filed an appeal against the wording of the court. from the court

need to be free on that count going to jail immediately because of the new word against him which was raised by the court there were unprecedented security over a thousand security forces personnel were deployed including the police and the paramilitary force eight and of course for his supporters that will be seen as political victim ideation but the mood across pakistan education debility across the board that brings everybody from other political parties and the bureaucracy into the bed of the accountability pro say well this is not the first time series has been on trial for corruption in july sharif says daughter and son in law was sentenced to eleven years in prison guilty of pushing for luxury flats in london through corrupt practices all three were released on bail in september in twenty seventeen sharif was an innocent holding innocence beyond. source of income court

say sharif couldn't provide documentation showing legitimate funds and setting up two companies in saudi arabia sharif denied all the charges saying they are politically motivated the accused is the military in courts of working together to end his political career tarik is a political analyst he joins us live on the line from islamabad can he appeal against this latest conviction and sentence he going to do things economically he can appeal against the conviction which is a regular procedure the case will go to the higher court are and then after the high higher court and job is and in islam both his case and then if it is if it remains the same and the conviction is not reversed he can appeal again further before the supreme court but the immediate challenge is that he has to get himself released on bail and and from there he has to file an application separate

application for the release not that is what himself to believe don't be so that's the situation at the present time he has been sentenced to seven years of imprisonment and that's a very bad news for the entire family of mr sharif this must surely mean even his political career is completely over. i think i going to agree with you his political career is finished his family's political career is finished his daughter's political career is finished because of the court and the institutions in august on having a strange way of you know of following the law sometime for example his daughter is actually directly involved in in the in the case in the chief fabricated documents forged that documents she is accused of forgery of documents but at the supreme court and the lower court in the higher course in the previous case

they have not taken the action so what but she is likely she must be because the evidence is year there are near the end those documents a year that she forged documents so the you have families but it will go to a year that is finished he was found guilty of money laundering i'm not trying to be glib or sarcastic here but is there a sense in which he's not a very good money launderer because if your money liff you laundering money you come up with the fake documentation to back up what you would say is the authenticity of what you have been doing and how you are genuinely earning that money he wasn't genuine the earning that money but he couldn't provide even fake documentation to the court to back up what his take was on where all those funds came from. your point is absolutely very big and the history of pakistan has been that no ruler in pakistan has had ever been

actually sentenced you know prior to him prior to him we have the example of mr hughes of the golani the other prime minister but he was sentenced on a different thing at the fed that is for the disobedience of the court but kid in this case now and in other cases the pakistani politicians have always been going scot free they have always believed they will not be sentenced in any case it is not possible they can exert their influence but this time i think we are living in a different times people of pakistan as your reporter already pointed out they have they are going for you know accountability people are tired of corruption the corruption is massive. we are talking about ninety six billion dollar of deck that the country has piled up most of which has been fired up in the last ten years from zardari to no washington so somebody has stolen the money in this case i think the documentation is very clear and he cannot be. allowed to be released on bail

in this case a very easily if at all ever gets released on bail and this one if we're talking about step change when it comes to the judicial his attitude or the political attitude towards this kind of behavior his two sons hussein and assam they have been declared absconders by the court you're talking about ninety million dollars plus that was the figure you just used does that mean that the courts will go after the rest of his family or not do you think ninety six million dollars i'm talking about the countries direct ok thank you for correcting i was in the order of the soldiers out of country which is not far and that was ninety six billion dollars ok do you think they'll go after the sons. you know i'm sorry so let me address your question the thing is this that most since most of the debt has been piled up in the last ten years which is the totality of the time of mr zardari and mr no washy and for this period the majority of the debt has been

piled up good in the five year annual riches the last five years of the muslim league led by mr no washy so the documentation is very clear he has lived beyond his means the section nine eight of the accountability act sais that if you cannot prove that your ass or salve not beyond your means or income then the burden is on you and because you feared to prove that he could not explain the money trail now in this case he could not produce the evidence and remember one thing in not it does not happen in many cases he has not produced any evidence deliberately for example if you had brought his sons back and produced them as a narrative as a piece of evidence as a as a symbol of this concrete evidence then he'd learned lawyers from the government side prosecute.
