a next don't warm and meg's big. for it is going to wipe. out all trouble become just the 4th u.s. president to face formal and pietschmann charges house speaker nancy pelosi says he abused his power by withholding military age or pressure ukraine into investigating democratic rival joe biden votes expected in the next couple of weeks setting up a fight in the senate on whether to remove trump from office. reports in washington d.c. . it's official sadly that with confidence and humility with allegiance to our founders and heart full of love for america today i am asking our chairman to proceed with articles of impeachment. donald trump will become the 4th

president in u.s. history to face formal impeachment charges that could remove him from office the facts are uncontested the president abused his power for his own personal political benefit at the expense of our national security by withholding military aid and crucial oval office meeting in exchange for an announcement of an investigation into his political rival the white house says democrats are abusing their power and lying to the american people are you referring to the right of a lesion fine on your legacy. reza hoax it's a hoax and subjects that us now with the big question in washington is what these articles of impeachment will be a report by the house intelligence committee makes a case for abuse of power and of struction of congress stemming from the ukraine investigation but then there are still those lingering concerns from the earlier

russia investigation. in july special counsel robert muller told congress that while there was no evidence trump had colluded with russia to win the 2016 election there may be grounds that he obstructed justice and what about total exoneration if you actually totally exonerate the press you know the muller's appearance had little impact and the very next day trump told the president of ukraine over the phone that muller had quote a poor performance then according to the call transcript trump asked for an investigation into his political rival constitutional scholars called by democrats have testified that trump's impeachable offenses go beyond the ukraine phone call call i think the way you need to ask about this is how does it fit into the pattern of behavior by the president republicans counter democrats have been trying to remove trump since the day he took office they've always wanted to impeach the president why. i'm at their words watching at their actions watching what they have

done the democratic majority in the house will likely vote to impeach trump before christmas then the senate dominated by the president's own party will put trump state on trial in the new year 2. castro al-jazeera washington. michael isikoff as the chief investigative reporter a yahoo news he says troubles poll numbers seem to be stable to spike in pietschmann proceedings. nobody really knows how this is going to shake out politically it is worth noting that we've had more than 2 months now since the transcript of the president's phone call with zelinsky emerged in the course than there was 2 weeks of public hearings in november while there was a spike in those who wanted to see the president impeached and removed after the release of the transcript the needle really hasn't moved much since then if you look at the public opinion polls they're still pretty much where they were

a few months ago with roughly half the country about 50 percent. do want to see the president impeached and removed from office and then you know 424344 percent opposed with you know a small number 567 percent undecided on the issue so you know one can ask if the needle did not move after 2 weeks of public hearings whether it's likely to do so in the days and weeks ahead hard to say not much evidence of that that's why this is a bit of a gamble for democrats politically but i should say when this does go to trial in the senate and it will next month the level of public attention and coverage will exceed anything we've seen to date so it is possible that more people will be watching paying attention listening to the testimony so there could be some shift

during the course of that trial in the senate and a separate battle with a democrat style trump assassins' supreme court to block an investigation into his finances a president has been to petition the court to keep its financial records out of the hands of a congressional panel a lower court all the panel could subpoena the documents held by accounting firm. united states is charged to russians for allegedly running a global cyber crime organization called evil corp the to remain at large they are accused of using a licious software or malware to steal millions of dollars parts. living the high life. custom i.c. you can call it. complete with the personalized number plate that spells out thief in russian. lavish policies and expensive gifts all captured on

camera and used as evidence by u.s. and u.k. prosecutors against russian hackers on thursday u.s. indictment accuse i go to russia and mix india of running a global hacking group called evil quote from their basements we're here today to identify and announce charges against a russian national whom the department of justice alleges is responsible for 2 of the worst computer hacking and bank fraud schemes of the past decade yakob is a true 21st century criminal who with the stroke of a key in the click of a mouse committed cyber crimes across the globe he's earned his place on the f.b.i.'s list of the world's most wanted cyber criminals yeah qubits is accused of working for russian intelligence both men and legit to use ma when known as droid x. is still at least $100000000.00 from the likes of schools and religious organizations across 40 countries the malware was spread through so-called phishing campaigns

encouraging victims to click on malicious links sent by email once a computer was infected the group stole postal banking information which was used to transfer funds fundamental weakness that organized crime has is that they are driven by money and they are driven by greed and we have been able to gain evidence in the u.k. of a real world footprint of people seeking to draw down the funds from these offenses . is and also people who are exhibiting a very extravagant lifestyle online. you've got to rush of an acrobat's remain at launch a $5000000.00 bounty has been offered for information leading to acrobats arrest and prosecution the largest reward ever offered for a cyber criminal sort of al-jazeera earlier my colleague spoke with jodie west be the chief executive of global cyber risk she says the u.s. is behind in how it pursues cyber criminals. was very significant it's

a major bust of a very large cyber criminal ring but what the f.b.i. wasn't really focusing on in their announcements was it took them 8 years to do this investigation they began it in 2011 so it is wonderful that they have finally brought this ring into indictments it's doubtful they will ever bring these 2 russians to trial because they remain in russia and it highlights the difficulty of how hard it is to track and trace and conduct cyber crime investigations is this kind of thing sort of a drop in the ocean is there more to it now that you believe a cyber crime costs businesses about 5 trillion a year i believe is the last number i read so the bad guys are winning and it is a step in the right direction but when you consider all the cyber crimes that happened

between those intervening 8 years you can see that we're way behind so it is a problem that we have to address in our legal frameworks and international cooperation and just in how we can pursue these cyber criminals it also highlights i should point out that there are there are 6 stream risks in online banking online banking is not completely secure so one thing people can do is to companies and individuals both is to restrict their use of online banking and be very careful about what they are doing with it and be very careful with their online credentials for logging in . police in india say they have shot the 4 men suspected in the rape and murder of a veterinarian in the southern city of hyderabad the death of the 27 year old last week sparked protests across the country and calls for tougher laws police say these men were taken to the same of the crime and they say they then tried to

escape and they shot them for more let's go to. new delhi so 1st show what what's the official statement from the police and from the family of the victim. well there's no official statement from the police here that might take some time because this is a very complex case now however the police has been giving some information to the reporters here and walked we have picked up is that essentially for the last 2 evenings the police mistaking these 4 accused to the spot of the crime to reconstruct the whens and last night see that one of the accused tried to snatch the weapon off one of the police officers and they got into a scuffle they've tried to attack the police officers and tried to escape that is when the police shut them down are some of the retired police officials are explaining this by saying that in this sort of a scenario in the heat of the moment the police would have shot these people down and they possibly would not have time to shoot them in the leg and that is why this

attack this encounter really has taken place however the family of the victim the father and the sister according to what's been reported in the indian press how welcome this is they call this justice they have thanked the local government and said that this is the 1st form of justice that could have delivered for a family like theirs the last 10 days the girl was the doctor was on and killed on a 7th of this month and they say that this is the right form of justice however there are many others who are questioning this and seeing that there is not enough evidence whether these accusers were in fact the culprits and that proper procedure should have been followed and are raising questions in fact of the events that took place last night more clarification would only emerge once the police actually does give an official statement and the details so of course there will be a lot of questions about this on charla no once there's an official statement bring it to us but in the meantime it was just a few days ago that there were some members of parliament in india said that rapist

should be lynched is there any type of what is the public sentiment about things like that about encounters like this with with rape suspects because people are angry about crimes against women. well there possibly is wide scale acceptance and support for such form of retribution of justice but then of course there are also many lawyers and human rights activist who raising questions is saying that in such a case there is no due process of law that's followed and we're supposed to believe what the police says that these are the accused and then accept that they have been killed so this sort of bumper treats the cycle of violence small they say why this is a legal problem it is also a societal problem it is a problem because patriarchy continues to be the dominant norm in india and that that has to be questioned there are people who are also saying that this that rhetoric retribution justice even capital punishment legal capital punishment has

not walked out to be a deterrent so while politicians will say that rape is should be a lynch while there would be some people who would support such encounters as well including by the way the family of the girl who was raped back in december 2012 after which there were many protests including them there are a significant number of people who look questioning this and saying your should be followed ok thank you very much live from new delhi. the ride sharing service over has announced that nearly $6000.00 sexual assaults were reported to the company and the u.s. are just a 2 year period it's the 1st time we were has released these figures which cover 20172018 the allegations range from unwanted touching kissing rape and 19 fatal assaults hooper and its competitors have been facing increasing pressure to deal with complaints. still ahead on al-jazeera as the world focuses on a measles outbreak in samoa the world health organization warns the problem is far
