a much better breeding for covert the mexico's jails we asked the new food to phone a friend who was still inside and tell us about conditions. here if you haven't got medicine or you're in trouble because a paracetamol costs 75 cents you get me there's no medicine and the medical service doesn't attend. what does if it was there and how many seconds there since i lift a years early almost everyone in the dormitory is sick brother mexico's government says early screening in isolation has prevented many prisoners in federal jails getting sick but for n.g.o.s this is still a ticking time bomb. in cells where 4 people should be living in some prisons that are more than 20 in that situation with this pandemic the infections are exponential the government's tried to reduce overcrowding in april it pushed through an amnesty law to release thousands of low risk inmates from federal prisons. but after nothing happened the law or the proceedings the legal

proceedings in order to for these summits if you're cure depend on the executive branch the final decision depends on the judiciary branch to independent but there's a lot of. slow proceedings in order for things to go from in danger zone into reality and that's what's not happen it's got stuck in the red tape yes except. in a separate process state prisons notoriously the most overcrowded have managed to free more than $3500.00 that's still just a drop in the ocean about 2 percent of the total prison population a new foes one of them although he says he had to fight for it but freedom of become bittersweet by the time we met again his brother a done it since died of cove it was mum was devastated now so. what can i do i try to be cheerful there's no other way there's no other way but to keep

on going when was the last time that you saw. quite rightly 4 years ago it's an injustice what they did to him. she says that because dan spent those years in prison without his case even going to trial thanks to a close up legal system more than $70000.00 of mexico's prisoners in exactly the same situation. now a new fall is about to begin a new struggle finding work as an ex-con in a country where unemployment is surging but before that there's something he has to do is. take his brother's ashes to the cemetery with john home and now does it or mexico city. the u.s. is threatening more sanctions against syria where section of state might pompei are saying it won't stop until president bashar assad ends the war against his own people. the so-called caesar act targets $39.00 companies and individuals including

assad and his wife asma and includes a raft of financial sanctions targeting any person or entity doing business with the president and those close to him state assets have already been frozen with hundreds of businesses and individuals already hit by u.s. and european union sanctions nearly a decade of violence has left syria with a collapsing economy now these sanctions expected to derail president assad's post-war recovery plans and a warning is in heart as report contains images of bodies you may find disturbing from the start they're known as caesar's photographs named after a military defector who documented torture and killings in syrian government jails his testimonies to the u.s. congress was part of a campaign to hold the regime responsible for what have been described as a war crimes it led to the passing and now the implementation of a bill in the u.s.

may have won militarily winning the peace may prove harder the new legislation means the fight for damascus as the seat of assad's power and legitimacy has still to be fought that of. a hoot. a delegation of high ranking turkish officials has been meeting libya's u.n. recognized government turkey's foreign minister and chief of intelligence made a surprise visit to tripoli turkey has been the main backer of the tripoli based administration and has been strong mentally in stopping the advance of warlord holly for hafter visit follows an agreement with russia which backs hafter to push for a ceasefire after his forces were pushed back away from the capital violent arrest of a nurse at a protest in paris is causing outrage in france riot police were filmed removing the woman from a crowd of demonstrating health workers who were demanding better pay for their work during the pandemic one point offices dragged the 50 year old woman by her
