minister has formally submitted his resignation to parliament but that has done little to call protests around the country mr clash with security forces after trying to block a road in baghdad and medical officials say 3 protesters were shot dead and at least 58 wounded some on a fault and reports from baghdad. the day prime minister of the mahdi submitted his resignation crowds in tahrir square showed no intention of packing up and going home banners were still held high doctors remained on standby to treat the wounded and new street art sprung to life depicting the aspirations of the protest movement . for many the prime minister's departure is just the 1st perhaps the easiest step on a long road towards change they want parliament dissolved and fresh elections to be held under a new election law the problem is not just a prime minister it's not the queen it's

a whole beehive all of them have to resign if the prime minister to leave someone similar to him will replace him. it's a fear dad risks becoming a reality in an emergency cabinet meeting of the mahdi said he would stay on as part of a caretaker government until parliament chose his replacement in the midst of morkel to be. there is no doubt that the council and its parties and members will oversee the finding of an appropriate solution as fast as possible because the country in this circumstances cannot a caretaker government for a long time so i want the parliament to complete the procedures to appoint a new prime minister and government. that process could take weeks even months and requires buy in from local and foreign power brokers because. for sure the political parties are facing a difficult exam they can't go back to the balance of power that used to be in place they have to come up with an extraordinary government which has to complete

the process of passing a new election law that is agreed by the protesters. but reforms won't bring the victims back nor will they appease those who mourn them as the death toll rises demands for justice grow louder. comes to town risk where every week to pray for the victims she doesn't just want to leave she wants his government to be held accountable let's do it and not it's. not just him those who opened fire she gave the order this is blood this is the blood of the people of the guilt their pride claims and they go to the graves instead of celebrating their wedding they're stained with blood. but all those responsible for the bloodshed should be punished the government has promised to investigate the most recent violence but as the focus shifts towards appointing a new prime minister such promises risk being forgotten demonstrators have welcomed

the moderates offer to resign but their joy is overshadowed by uncertainty over whether he will really leave and what will happen next with big changes to the rockefeller along many fear that whoever 2 succeeds him will simply carry on with what they see as the same failed political force that they want to hold in all of this iraq. iraq analyst at the washington institute for near east policy he says the resignation of mahdi puts the entire iraqi political system in unchartered territory. the resignation of the prime minister automatically means the resignation of the entire cabinet. this is the 1st time that this happens in iraq so the legal ways forward not necessarily clear but one way or another there has to be a new the president has to give mandate to a new person or a new bloc in parliament to form a new government the prime minister in his resignation letter specifically said that iraq needs a permanent government rather than a caretaker government something that the street have requested the latter

a caretaker government that you know once the affairs and till new elections are in place for the new system to be in place i mean adelman he was the face of this lack of accountability in the iraqi political system rather than the system itself so he could easily be scapegoated in fact is probably overdue for him to be leaving the scene but this is not the end of the road grand ayatollah sistani has played a significant role in channeling the protest movement into a single ask of the political leadership and of the government obviously in the absence of strong iraqi state institutions on the one hand and also in the in the absence of organized civil society the inability of the populist and public protest movement into being translated into employee specific ask that the laws that he has played that again referring back to the document these resignation letter he

doesn't say in response to the protesters but specifically says in response to the call by grant that the losses. pressure is growing on walter's prime minister after a prominent businessman was charged in the murder of a journalist you're going to next has denied being involved in the death that daphne curry on a belief set 2017 and is developed into a major political crisis for the prime minister joseph muscat as chief of staff resigned this week amid reports he was being questioned by police we spoke to albert earlier journalist at the malta and depended about the possible way for question this case could have for the prime minister. the prime minister he's expected to be giving a televised address tomorrow morning and the indication is that he will be announcing his intention to step down and got talking about the process for the leadership race for the labor party which he is part of which will culminate cognitively in an election which will involve will take place on the 18th of

january as to whether. that ground imminently we are not entirely sure yet. about protests are demanding that his resignation is its immediate ever since. the 1st of all not in panic to help and days ago there's been a process and each time the crowd gets lots and lots and all of them are calling for the same thing that is. his immediate resignation and this is something that's that's tough but. ever since the assassination even the panama paper scandal and was 3 years ago when. people stop who resigned the law last tuesday and the new minister who also resigned last tuesday where we name the having secret companies. as intervale the man who killed 2 people at a knife attack in london was released from prison last year after serving just half a sentence for his part in the failed bomb plot song and was shot dead by police on

london bridge friday he began his attack at a conference he was attending on prisoner rehabilitation catherine stansell reports . dramatic new video showing bystanders as they take down an attacker on london bridge after he went on a stabbing rampage they use a whale tusk and a fire extinguisher to stun him and then tackle him before armed police move in. i've been born and bred in england in stoke on trent in co beach and the older community knows me and the will know you if you ask them di will know the label but the point of the tabbies discuss you will know. i know tony said those words spoken by osman khan just over 10 years before friday's attack. 28 year old was attending a conference on prisoner rehabilitation when he threatens to blow up the venue he stopped 5 people before running out to nearby london bridge. in 2012 he was

convicted in connection to a plot to blow up the london stock exchange he was released from prison in december last year serving less than half his sentence we will to toughen up the sentences full serious and violent offenses and i've said for a long time that i think that the practice of automatic early release why would you cut a sentence in home often that really serious violent offenders out early simply isn't working and i think you've had some very good evidence of how that is working i'm afraid with this case the pearl board said it had no involvement in his release in a statement it said given the seriousness of this attack it is understandable that there is speculation about the attackers released from prison the parole board can confirm it had no involvement with the release of the individual. identified as the attacker who appears to have been released automatically on license without ever being referred to the board police are searching khan's home in staffordshire 3

hours north of london they believe he was acting alone and there's no further threat to the public the circumstances surrounding khan's release are now in the spotlight the former head of the national counter-terrorism security office has issued a scathing criticism of the criminal justice system saying that it's playing russian roulette with the public by allowing convicted criminals to be released from prison too early and this will be a key election issue here as well with police and prisons being subject to budget cuts over recent years catherine stansell al jazeera london. a former london metropolitan police chief superintendent he says a small khan's release and rehabilitation efforts will come under close scrutiny. but clearly he had been rick radicalized and had and was plotted and was successfully convicted of trying to blow up iconic site so the prevent program has not got the confidence of the wider community and we've also seen at least not actually work if we all have individuals who are part of and who go on to commit

offenses i think there's a significant concern about the judgment made by individuals to allow him to come back into london because he's proposed probation conditions were not to come back into london and he was part of the government's prevent strategy which he designed to radicalize individuals serve so lots and lots of questions to be not the right thing i think there are 3 key issues here one is the huge reduction in police resources we've lost 22 to half 1000 police officers and 18 our hearts out of the support star we've had the probation service reduced and indeed much of it was privatized before sitting with it and we have a situation where the government prevents this be brought into question hundreds of people protested outside a police station in india were 4 men accused him of raping and murdering a 27 year old woman are being held there demanding the police and the suspects over

political and religious divisions are often exploited into dry and the foreman at a fit because one of them is muslim and so muslims are out the problem rather than think back to the uk is the problem. disaffect the consent of the problem government figures show that 32000 rape cases were reported in 2017 the year before more than 2000 girls younger than 12 were raped in 2013 india's government double prison terms for rapists to 20 years it also lowered the age which a person can be tried as an adult from $18.00 to $16.00. but some critics say these laws haven't done enough that needs to be some kind of a prevention program so to speak to prevent this because we have all various but all we're always shocked and angered by these crimes but we find ourselves left with no solutions. to address these crimes so that they don't repeat themselves
