a witness documentary on out to 0. there is no channel that covers world news like we do. we revisit places the day. i'll just there are really invest in that. and that's the privilege. as a journalist, ah oh, $600.00 gmc on, i'll just here on come all santa maria and these are the headlines. local sources have told us the taliban is now seized control of another. 2 provincial capitals in the south falls of laska gar, and canada. how would be the most significant gains for the group since it's recent offensive began? rub mcbride with one out from cobble. this is the fast changing dynamic. it has been changing throughout the hours of darkness. thursday coming into friday and i understand is waking up this friday morning to i can completely change dynamic,

especially down in the south of the country. local officials are being quoted by various wire agencies confirming the kandahar now is in control of the tyler and all of these developments started happening late 1st day. here with reports of, of taliban fighters breaching the defenses of kandahar of driving through to the center of the city, intense fighting their claims from the taliban, that the governor and its staff has had left the that compound bull claims that they taken over the police compound and then we started to see uploaded videos, apparently purporting to show almost a walk around of the deserted offices of the governor. so they did being claimed by, by the taliban, that they are now in control. it's a lot of the military units. it seems have withdrawn to a large military base on the edge of kandahar and they remains to be seen just whether there are any plans for some counter attack counter offensive. all of this is from to the u. s. and the u. k to send at least 3600 troops in chicago to help

pull out empathy, staff and local interpreters. washington though and not a full evacuation, and the embassy will remain open. the days of the headlines and samsung's vice chairman has been released from prison in south korea after granted parole. j y lee was serving a 2 and a half year sentence for bribery. critics say his release reflect the culture of lenient c for corporate bosses and say from robert kelly, associate professor of international relations at present national universities that leads release is really part of a wider approach to white collar crime. in south korea, the korean government has a habit of releasing corporate bosses who have been convicted of various crimes. some of that was actually being sort of like physical salt. and some of the, some of this isn't just white color crime like, like, conviction but actual assault. and there's been a fair amount of criticism of that. and this is sort of a part of a large debate about sort of whether not create very largest corporation or mega corporations that dominate the economy. do they have too much influence on,

on politics? my own sense, we haven't been too much from the, from the current government. right. i mean, the president current president got in because the president of course is impeached right. and leave with great big ghana. i think the current president moon has been content to sort of allow that digital process to play out. right. he got what he wanted, if you will, politically, from this years ago. and i'm not really sure there's too much left to be gotten from sort of speeding up on the now in peach programs, she's been thoroughly raised right. her approval ratings and she left her like under 10 percent or something like that. and you're going after sampling of course, and how free it's pretty risky. right. so i don't think there's much cause for the government is political advantage program honorably way in on this either way. you know the headlines vote subbing counted in zambia as presidential and parliamentary elections. president edgar longer is seeking a controversial 3rd term and what is thought to be an extremely tight rice. the number of people killed in the floods in northern turkey is no reason to 27.

black, the provinces were hit hard by heavy rain this week. several homes have been destroyed and vehicles are swept away in depth and injured italian health ministries issued warnings for 8 cities as a heat wave sweeps the country on thursdays hit 40 degrees celsius and the capital room and influence newspaper in nicaragua has suspended circulation after customs officials refused to release the paper important for its printed edition. the printer is blaming the government of president. daniel ortega just been cracking down on his opponents ahead of an election in november. on the latest u. s. census shows the white population has shrunk for the 1st time in history, you and 60 percent of people now identify as white, a change being driven by increasing diversity of the racial, hispanic, and asian populations of all grown significantly in the united states. over the past decades checked the headlines in half an hour's time, al jazeera investigations, the men who so football is next. ah,

me shock and outrage around your managers play is. deming. see believe project. manchester united phones and stone burns stadium. english could cool funds rebel against the owners of the clubs. they love people. not for these b. c pretty go unit funds. say that 1000000000 room is treating english football, global cash cow, cutting clubs off from the community. yeah, the moment chelsea friends got what they wanted, but controversial european super. he get left just a few days off of announce football clubs in england, todd, pass about history heritage community and so i thought they should be protected.

yes, you need money along the way to run it forward from football. football authorities claim they have rules of protect the integrity of the lead on prevent unsuitable owners from buying clubs. funding providers representing the flow not just greedy days, ship china, wherever you are. you show how the rules governing football ownership all being abused on the criminal funds from abroad can be wanted through the english game. or the main room in the rep will record the lightweight. i have many of the undercover report to be filming a middle man to fix his deals for wealthy foreigners to by english clubs. i was with mail yesterday. he appointed me to sell

the reporter say they represent a chinese investor, convicted of bribery and money laundering, who wants to buy a football club to clean his money, but 909000000. the middleman, once all fictitious criminal to buy a club, this is twice been champions of england with please to the stadium itself. 33500 people capacity. you reveal how the middle then previous field took to the english club to the brink of financial collapse. defend they paid take can provide the do make is associate, include a form of scotland yard detected, who can monitor the football authorities, communication, where you could use just the policies to,

to help you get the information you can help out criminal, obtain an e u passport with a new name on the green light to own in english football club. really many things like that was as if and then here is 2 or 3 to to christopher samuelson is an offshore trust specialist and football deal maker. he works with accountants and lawyers to hide clients identities and wealth involved in football. after setting up a sponsorship company with

a bunch of west famous famous figure, we call the one thing you said chris, look, we can buy chelsea for shaky. we agree to buy chelsea 480-0000 pounds, 800 pounds guaranteed issue to that's the problem was the access to the craft so we can do it. that's how can base mistake this chairs, chairs. so that's how i started over a series of meetings in london. hotels are under cover reporters say they represent 3 chinese investors who want to purchase a football club with 2 investors home 20 percent each. the majority invest that we call mr. x has criminal convictions because issues in china. we name our undercover reporter billy

the chinese money back and paying the local officials. they offer you a drink. well, i think we can do the drink. tangy is our 2nd undercover reporter. she's acting as billy's assistant before the program can alter the warrant to escape to actual safety. and then they made a correction of him up in the court because the real world really tells miss and that mr. x is very rich, fled china with his illegally obtained wealth, smuggled his farm out of china to macau casinos and received

a 70 year prison sentence, cynthia, for bribery and money laundering. if he wants help me to do that, then i can overnight that should hold it for him. best way for money to post relationship. so we have a bar, michelle, where the prospective owner has paid money to public officials or in any other times bribe public officials, which is obviously a criminal offense around the world, both in china and the u. k. now, as a professional, was a company information agent, that should be the end of the conversation by the beginning of the conversation and should lead to that report him to the police that he's under a law and the price of the crime. i me,

samuel has lived in countries including the u. k. island, switzerland in spain. until recently had a villa yorker which was sold for just under a $1000000.00. he's managed billions of dollars for the wells through the race. yet few know his name has been described as the ultimate man in the shadows. he's someone who works with a group of people, lawyers, accountants, to help people hide their money. he's one of the most powerful, influential people in finance you never even heard of. he was born to an affluent family in southern england. his parents appeared in society magazine, such as tattler samuelson was sent to a private forwarding school in england. i did further studies in grenoble and munich, the late sixty's. he moved to wall street the he has what we think is his 1st job in new york with some very,

very well connected investment bankers thomason got in say about emotional finance and trust in the 1980s. and he works for a company called bound met, which he and others built into one of the biggest of ga companies in the world. a trusted company is set up when someone gives money to a trusted party to look after him. he's often used to fight the identity of the ultimate owner of the wealth a decades, he's not as the personal business of some of the world's wealthiest people, leaving findings off shore trust, some people. in addition, the husband said that you can make an elephant disappeared. samuelson reassures, believe that the identity of our fictitious criminal mr. x will remain hidden except to the football league. and he will not be know that he

has football. nobody has any football. they had to tell information semester the english football league is the body that governs the division below the premier lee. it has a set of rules called the owners and directors test to protect the image and integrity of the league and the wellbeing of its clubs. one of its key aimed is to prevent criminals owning clubs and using football to launch the money bands from owning a club. anybody with an unspent criminal conviction and the sentence of at least 12 months in prison month. the lee can also require proposed owners to provide evidence of the ultimate source and proficiency of funds to acquire control of or invest in a club. holy

shit, we could create a buyer. let's say if this is a investment, mostly if if we have to send us the samuelson says he can sort efforts by the football lee to find out about mr. x sometime. say please investigate to do they have somebody go there, which they will do that. the main thing is you have somebody christian host, no phone can,

is huge. christine, who is a partner, i'm gonna cook a london based law firm handling for us, the legal work and gregory that 5 plus actually the 2 items. and i know very well he's very efficient. this is nice. another member of samuel sins team is andrew r lensky. chunk of attention and the commercial background. he's the best chunk of it. it's tree tree. yeah, i can, i can hear you come to the right. ah, the deal would involve samuelson becoming a director of the club and receiving a large fee. he charged 3 percent of the value of

each member of his team would charge additional fees in names, the clubs. he claims all for sale. if you wanted to buy a top 6 of those to you by today, which will sell, but he won't treat the total, which is to leave the channel to talk them very well. and joe, this is a of a major shadow. billy says the chinese investors are prepared to spend up to a 150000000 pounds with a fair the 100000000 for investment. they were looking for a sleeping giant once. great club with a big fan base. perhaps a team in the 2nd tier of english football county which mel mail has, has invested. so for 160000000 pounds because nothing of forest club

1 pm, which is before by the champion, the rage, the very top of football level one is mill. mill belongs to the bells, who i know what he's american people. he doesn't he didn't get to see it later suggested in an email that really is invested by a top flight spanish club. i would vice because it has all the desirable attributes . good profits that can be enhanced brand that can be promoted in china and market all over asia. the best scouting network in latin america and an outstanding academy. samson presented with an acquisition plan drawn out by his firm sock fin,

the asking price for just under 90 percent of the bill with $217000000.00. but doby had a key advantage for samuel talk to you because i was with the mail yesterday. he said it was talking with mel confidential oh, really. mm samuelson provides a step by step guide that would allow convicted criminal and money laundry. mr. x to buy a football club. first, create an offshore account using a trust company to use as well that he claims he part company ice cream is trust company. we deal with the company is before it was just

a 100 pounds just to make the minimum the issue to ships appreciate having to check in the puppy today because normally they, shareholders can legally appoint nominees to hold shares for their benefit if they don't want the shares registered in their name. the nominees names are made public . the names of the real shareholders remain a secret. basically uses another new share share information across and said that we'll chat in total document copies that you have the original copy interval. since i'm using creates

an optional company for mister x. he sends an itemized invoice from fence trust. the bill includes charges for providing corporate directors and nobody shareholders total $9400.00 and we just kind of say, who are the chinese the best? that's all we'll say. i was reading special work troll and reading. are the folks jeff i bought i bought it for russian family because they are rich pretty high, but i certainly had concerns. when you nothing about the company behind

the funding. we knew that tim sport investments as it was cold was going to be set up in a registered in jupiter. why would that need to be registered in to both tim? what are they trying to hide? reading and so that sounds like all the bars thing. garbage is, the russian owner of a huge pulp and paper company without the garbage senior powers had a massive fortune from paper pulp. but we were also told that he wasn't involved in that, that, that was the obvious question of, well, where is the money coming from? so i got the money. i couldn't play a part. i fear that they didn't know me,

but and tones in garbage didn't have the funds to sustain the club bible, which express down to just want to see why the judges growth defends at this point just felt they take them to ride. suddenly we turned in to just another clubbing crisis. the russian owner sold the club, he left reading, holding a big bill that he ran up with no, no money left to pay. it was done us and then discusses another strategy that will give mister x, the green light to buy an english football club. it will be

getting a separate cost for the time you could help mister x, obtain a european union passport and change his name. i had happily for many years, he was finding it can do all kinds of things like tac toe sense. so samuelson sends the friend a text message in the security. and so he looks after a number of chance who have issues a space for ration. keith hunter is a former scotland yard detective who left the police in 1997. he formed

risk management, the private investigation company, and no runs animus. it services include due diligence, personal profiling integrity, testing, domestic investigations and surveillance hunters klein had included the oligarchy, boris pairs of ski and james, the boring nigerian politicians jailed for fraud. alexander nick, bon jenko, the former russian spy with polonium in london restaurant had worked for hunter as a source of information hunter has received samuel some message and calling back again. i asked the president of the investors chinese he was paid in china

tech, chinese government thing and he need to know how quickly can get a site this one. but billy meets hunter to find out more about the services he provide believes assistance this time is another undercover report that we called her alleys. and so this is my previous hunter explains what he does to help his clients . if he's talking to the really aggressive with we officer, he's off with whatever i'm initially just find out connect thanks. patricia was going to go live. so they go,

mistress. so anything that we could understand, reputation with them won't get kind competitors telephone. i called in a month, which was a good kind we could potentially go onto business activities resulted in a police inquiry in 2006, involving a corruption case in london's metropolitan police. he was not charged in 2012 hunter was arrested on suspicion of seeking to corrupt a police officer in the james bori fraud case. again, he was not charged. sometimes it's impossible. sometimes. sometimes you can't do the fact that there will be times where you could use just the policies to, to help you get the information to the managers

to do. but it would be something good people, if they would do it, other people do those things and i'm very happy to organize an introduction. but how can you trust them? because you don't trust my people will have relationships with people that can do things that we do in house hunter is offering a range of services which fall in the spectrum of legality. so from one end, you have following people which is distasteful. one could verge on harassment through 2 things which are legal, breach, state privacy laws, like accessing bank statements, accessing e mails and accessing telephone records. wells times talks about 3rd parties distances. and so from this activity,

the way in which he talks implies that he has done this before. and his passion have done this before as well. impulse to run recover reporters are off for the chance to buy a football club that was twice champions of england. please my name needs whether i can truly call it home groups bringing on to me to ones you know you'll enjoy please morning. my name is just for us to rise in my name is where we know my niger on august the how many nukes has too many new america have in many ways driven the arms rate

parties are much more like the british parties. there are fewer regulations to own a tiger than their our own a dog. how can this be happening? your weekly take on us politics and, and that's the bottom line. 02 of the odyssey or investigators coming up the fence for check the headlines and local sources of told i'll just see what the taliban has now seize control of another 2 provincial capitals in the south. the fall of africa and kandahar would be the most significant gains for the group since this offensive began. more from rob mcbride, he's in campbell. this is the fast changing dynamic. it has been changing throughout the hours of darkness thursday coming into friday and i've kind of stand is waking up this friday morning to again a completely changed.
