9:06 pm
midnight when police say more than a dozen people was shot dead by gunmen in a bar knew johannesburg. bodies piled near the entrance. our victims who tried to run out and escape what we know is that the assailants, the just entered into that space. well, people enjoined info from the shorter and only to them, investigators have described the shooting as a massacre said ins as that a new on now was this is the gun was to try it the act on it, on our communities and used to call upon communities to actually little indeed assist the police in bringing to book and those appear treat us police say nothing was sold in from the business. now they're focused turns on catching those responsible, finding out why the victims were targeted. hattie, a little bit of a yan al jazeera or got ownership is a hugely divisive issue in south africa. one of the most contentious reform
9:07 pm
proposals as the firearms control act, which would stop people from legally owning a gun for self defense purposes, support to say fewer guns would lead to less crime. the critics are pushing back. they argue civilians need license weapons to defend themselves, especially with a rising crime rate and overwhelmed police force, or than $6000.00 people were killed in the 1st 3 months of this year in south africa. please say most violent crimes are the worst they've recorded in the last 5 years. okay, well let's bring in ian cameron, who's the director of the advocacy group, community safety and action society. he joins us live for from cape town. thanks for your time. now you've written and spoken in defense of gun ownership or in the past, or presumably your answer to these soaring number of gun deaths and gun crimes as simply more guns. so absolutely not the it's, i don't think it's quite that simple. i think this whole degree in the last 12
9:08 pm
years this other because the service has lost 26000 fire on stage ray just far. that means that in the last 12 years of african police services, most likely the biggest gun supply criminals in south africa, which is obviously very, very worried. and i think if we see it in that way, we need to understand a conviction, right? for violent crime, in general, in south africa, a less than 5 percent conviction, right? sorry, the power just went off in south africa. it makes it incredibly difficult to combat crime efficiently in the country. now let me read you this, this quote to severely on the capacitance. it does functional in many ways unable to make a meaningful change in the face of unacceptably high crime levels. that's one recent description of the south african police force. why all things so dire as you
9:09 pm
say? but i think this a via political interference in this other african pretty service. we've seen that over the last 20 years. the majority of commission is that we're going to, we're not korea police members. they were politically connected, ruling parties that were appointed. and we also saw this band, most of our specialized units in the south africa. the service expectation was that they would need to combat serious, violent crime from ground level. and to give you an idea. yeah, for example of 2019 african lost more than 10000000 rounds of ammunition. so that means $10000000.00 rounds of ammunition is freely roaming on the streets of the country. and if you take that into consideration along with very low conviction, right, the citizens on. so what i am advocating for and what our organization advocates
9:10 pm
for is role that you train communities to teach them what they can do within the framework of legislation to safeguard themselves. and if at all able to be well trained and on with the relevant regulations. it is very strict regulated, then we could possibly save lives and assist people to stay alive and survive against crime. what. why is it not possible to help the police simply do that job rather than setting up this sort of rival vigilante justice system? i think it's quite the opposite from a vigilante justice system. we saw with a selection african last year. it wasn't for community structures. we wouldn't have . so i was in relate to this blog post week which is known as one of the most violent places. and if it was not for the brave woman to control the streets every single night, i think for most people would be a resource that it comes to policing. and it seems as this of african government is
9:11 pm
not interested to really improve capacity. so african currently has a 1300 late detectives to combat crime, take crime than what they had 3 years ago. obviously, with a story crime rate for 6000 people just between january and march of 2022. it's impossible to have her. if you just been on government is very important that communities take responsibility for the other seems to be as you suggested, the underlying systemic problem. clearly violent crime and poverty often go hand in hand whose duty to bring about fundamental change. there is a responsibility to a certain extent of government, but i think it is very important for communities to take responsibility. so i think they need to take part, obviously in it. but it's also important that they do what they can in their rid of
9:12 pm
it. and the reason i say that's very important, we cannot simply wait on government because it simply means that more people die with, i'm not saying actually to the way so that we can legislation has more than enough space within the framework of our existing legislation for communities to organize themselves and work with forced to prevent and come back and cry. all righty and cameron, director of advocacy of the community safety and action group live in cape town for us. thank you for your time. plenty more had on this news ow. including a, a strong result for japan's ruling party in an election, overshadowed by the assassination of chicago abbey. we follow the plight of thousands living an unsafe accommodation in lebanon because that too poor to move elsewhere henceforth or worrying moment for this driver of the austrian formula.

9:18 pm
well yes, it was getting incredibly crowded up to this morning, but there hasn't been too many developments since penny morton's announced her candidacy. early on sunday morning. harring here in london, i with a, with a pitch to move on from the sort of personality politics of boris johnson and the day before. busy saturday, some of those to announce at sachi job id, who was health secretary before resigning last week, one of the, one of the ministers he caused the domino effect of ministers and the ministers resigning i, which eventually cause bars johnson to resign on thursday as well as well as him, richie sooner who was chancellor of exchequer at before he resigned last week. and he released of a slick video. and he's looking like the front runner at the moment. apart from that, we are expecting maybe one or 2 more to announced today,
9:19 pm
potentially pretty patel. the home secretary who's responsible for the policy of the porting asylum seekers or trying to port science seekers to rwanda. another candidate and not deems the hallway, he was the new chunks of the exchequer, has been responding to somewhat vague allegations that the tax man's looking into his affairs and calling them a smith, the supposed allegations he's saying. but the guido forks, political website and currently reckoning which candidates have how much backing they do have sooner in the lead at the moment. and followed perhaps surprisingly by more than there's not a political heavyweights a pull, many of them are. i've been promising tax cuts, haven't they? what are the main issues underpinning this service, race why you said it, it's, it's tax railey as the economy. and more specifically, tax of course, is the conservative policy. he will choose this leader and therefore the next british prime minister. but they'll be looking to is potentially down the line as
9:20 pm
well to the next general election at what's what the electorate once and taxes where the battle lines are being drawn. and in fact, most people seem to be aiming at richie city, not when he was chancellor. and he started just before the crone of iris pandemic policies such as furlough and other policies responding to that crisis have given britain its highest level of public borrowing. since the 2nd world war and his policy to come by, that has been to raise taxes, which is something the conservative party is traditionally been allergic. so in fact, pretty much all of his rivals are saying that's the wrong way to go. and that they would lower taxes in order to try and boost the economy. something sooner thinks it could cause more inflation. what it might come down to is whether the policy thinks i k, the electorate might realize the fix that the u. k is in and she's someone who's
9:21 pm
taking responsibility being realistic or if they'll choose someone who will more immediately give it vote as money back into their pocket. something that's always been quite appealing to electorates in the past. one thing will also hearing today is the suggestion that anyone elected as conservative party leader, british prime minister, might call a snapped collection of the poles, look good enough and solidify their place. that something to raise a made it a few years ago with fairly disastrous results. so that would be a very daring move for whoever is elected. who knew you? k tax rules could be quite so riveting pull many thanks. there are thousands of people in lebanon's, northern city of tripoli, a living in danger because their homes are at risk of collapse. the city has suffered from decades of government, neglect, and instability. but hundreds of families are living in unstable structures because they're too poor to go elsewhere. st. hodder has more in just

9:32 pm
that's actually what i'm here is the maximum. so wanted to just to, to understand the part of people and the sheer number of people are trying to get in to see the president's house is posing a real problem. those who are part of the protest campaign who are still trying to control some of the crowds are urging people to be careful. there is structural damage, obviously a very all bravo. and just cannot handle the shared numbers or climbing up the stat case. there has been structurally shoes, so that's posing a very real problem and the danger and this obviously the swimming pool at the president's house of the water looking very much. 2 worse for the wet, but those iconic pictures of people are diving into this right off to the protest is essentially overran this residence. now president go tabio roger boxer is reported to have been evacuated to safety. before the protest says actually got
9:33 pm
into the property. we still haven't seen any signs of him other than to hear the statement that he has indicated he is willing and able and willing on his resignation. on the 13th of july, aaron, rick ramirez, there is a member of parliament and sri lanka and previously served a state minister finance. he starts the process of change is just beginning a few things made to be done, the media prices since they cannot be priced. that. busy people don't have gas shortage is like that. so we would need the help of all friendly country then neighbors in assisting with that. and then we also need to embark with the international monetary fund coming to a stop level agreement with the week. and then going for the necessary reforms and that process has begun and that that process can be taken to the i am in the country then particular government. we've been, i'm it previously we had a program,
9:34 pm
even my finance and i'm in the country. so clearly i think the change needed i missed and everybody in the government except the majority of the people in the country. and i think that's established. certainly those suppose that those will continue the challenges because we need to get the picture cues in the need that provides for that need, bridging finance. and then they have to undertake the difficult economic reforms that are being called for. and we need to do this because they are needed, and this is the way to take the country forward. there are 2 ways to look at if we had a program previously up to 2019. there are 2 in the country. we have a budget then a balance of payments in 20182019 be able to create the primary balance that's
9:35 pm
through share discipline, fisco, consolidation, raising revenue. and this time it will be tougher because the last look at the cost side and certainly that will create certain problems to be both. so the, i'm, if re fun program, you just have to go with the program to sheet it and protect the socially why not. but i think this is now understood by much elaborate agency stool. and we need to target the vulnerable and the and protect them through a direct social program. why did the push through with the reforms, some protests and the chinese city of jo say that they were injured by heavy handed security personnel. though protesting against the freezing of their deposits by 3 rural banks. the banks locked access to accounts in april, saying it had to do with a systems upgrade. customers say they haven't heard anything since the banks are under investigation for a legal fundraising. the rising cost of living is causing economic turbulence
