12:01 am
demanding the president stepped down and whole new elections. and why i've got to stanley is struggling to sell the world's most expensive spice. ah hello. iran has executed a 2nd prisoner linked to anti government protests that have engulfed the country for months. it's the 2nd such execution in less than a week. and he wrote a run of ard was pug publicly hanged on monday. and iranian court convicted him of fatally stabbing to security force members during protest last month been widespread demonstrations across iran since 22 year old women. musser many died in police custody in september. human rights groups warned protest as being sentenced to death without due process dosage, barriers in the capital terran and has more about the man who was executed. he was
12:02 am
a 23 year old according to reports and who was arrested in iran, 2nd largest city. that is masha, today's after an incident that took place during the protest that a bit were ongoing at the time. he was arrested on november 19th and according to reports. and magic reza at raton of arg, was then i'm shown some footage of it. that was apparently cctv footage that apparently showed him committing the acts that were a including of murdering to members of the bessie's military forces as well as wounding for others with a knife as he was at try and a convicted. and then his sentence upheld in the country supreme court all within the span of $23.00 days. he was executed early morning on monday in a public execution, which is quite rare in her on. it's only the 2nd time this year that we have heard of a public execution taking place. but executions are not that are rare in are on it
12:03 am
. this is at the $500.00 and 5th execution to take place this year alone. and of course, iran has one of the highest execution rates in the world, only 2nd to china. roxan freeman from ion is electra in politics and international studies. at the university of cambridge, she says, protest is a more determined in their cause to bring an end to the government. i think the demonstrations are, are continuing. the protesters are not taking the message that the government was hoping that these executions would to spawn. in other words, the protesters have called for another round and they are not being put off by these executions. but the very fact that the government is taking this step is horrifying. and i think showing the violence that the next stage is, is going to process as we go forward. i think there are 3 things in particular that are making these executions seemingly so hollow. first of
12:04 am
all, the intimidation of the family in order to stay silent. the force confessions that are incriminating, obviously the lack of any kind of lawyer that the accused is allowed to have. so i think all 3 of these things are making the trial seem like sham trials. the protesters simply are not accepting them at all. and that's one of the reasons i think they continue to call for the end of the government. for dozens of soldiers and civilians have told the roaches news agency that the nigerian army has masika children and it's war against on groups in the northeast. roaches says thousands of children could have been killed, but it investigated 6 specific incidents in which at least 60 died. investigation
12:05 am
also found that army commanders were ordered to quit delete children because they were seemed to be collaborating with on group such as booking her arm or inherited their blood. they were often killed because it was fair children of fighters would grow up to join the on groups, be used a suicide bombers or informants, and to avenge losses. it found most of the children was short, but witnesses that others had been poisoned and suffocated. nigerian military has told reuters that the army has never targeted children, and that the report is part of a foreign effort to undermine the countries fight against on groups. career a damn, who is the managing director of beacon consulting, a security risk management provider in nigeria and the sale region. he joined his life from a boucher, thanks for being with us for some very serious allegations against the nigerian army. here from this russia investigation is saying that new children what were massacred by the army. what do you make of it, sir? laura? quite serious. um, i mean, we have to also put it in context of the upcoming election nazareth of ought to
12:06 am
hold an election in february and march of 2023 under the rule of the military and start to live in the social environment before the election is quite critical for this allegation, comment on the hills, though during the election is quite but critical. now they're gonna blanket denial by the nigerian army of it to the siamese general christopher, mr. saying it has never happened. it's not happening. it will not happen. given that reaction, what is of like here that any of this will actually ever be investigated further? but it is not the 1st time that such allegations made against the military in 2015, i think i'm the international made a similar allegation. and at that time, there was an attempt to investigate the allegation, and unfortunately nothing came out of it. but we know in a practical way, you know, in general, military has made some changes. it's try to improve human write record to try to
12:07 am
improve it from community relations with residents of the area. so bob, the fall out of some of the earlier i division is not likely that this one will be investigated. except for instance, if there is the change in the perception by the government. but the current reaction with the military and the government has been one of denial and rejection in its entirety of the report. i mean, the state department has now wait and said it's deeply troubled by the report and is wanting to try and get more information and, and i'm using international call for an investigation as well. do you think any of those kind of international bits of pressure will make any difference to they're not here in government? we have to also put it in context of the us military to an extent, a breach on several of the international partners actively present in the not if you don't training or given for me what kind of support and then you know, military though, every thing that may have happened in the past would be to the knowledge to connect
12:08 am
and then so this report is not likely to change anything. i feel more than a political or at once. the really respond would be in your institution. all of my kind of in board within the military nigeria. and in terms of the diplomatic religionist, religion between the 2 concrete b, u. s. and the year on the other country that may be interested in improve into human rights record. the u. s. also play a critical role. it has significant presence and not east of nigeria. and food can also play a role in that regard. and i think it has to be institutional the type that would allow an on, by an investigation. and that, that would create a change of, you know, never 3 for the type of military that would help you democratize of culture. when you talk about an embossed investigation, what kind of authority in audrea or institution would be able to institute an investigation like that and then carry it out without being in boss is, is there,
12:09 am
is there a showing or judge or something that you think might be involved in investigation department would be the most ideal institution for such an investigation. unfortunately, however, one of the legacy, the, the longer the military rule, in the event, the parliament, unfortunately, had not shown this type of, you know, capacity for investigation of the nature of the presidency. could also claim, but your rule by game, like i said earlier on, men join about to hold an election to the general election to the entire food of the government and trade eventually everyone on that election. it's not likely that the timing of the relief of this report would, would be you know, help it out before the election. perhaps the government would be more interested, but no, i don't think it would help enough company. thank you very much. indeed. definitely nasa service attrition and not sure. thank you. thank you for having i so says it

12:19 am
whilst no official per statement has been made implicating any particular country from the point of view of investigators, it is clearly being said by many members of parliament that they believe the state in question is the state of qatar, representative to the state of cancer have denied any involvement, any wrong doing, but there are many voices, both within the european parliament and then in the european institutions, who as i say, are asking very serious questions not only about this particular incident, but also about the idea of corruption in the institutions. we know the presence the european commission has spoken about this sort of fund lion, and there is a clear sense here that they don't believe that this is the end of the road. and so far as the investigation is concerned from the case. thank you very much. indeed,
12:20 am
a libyan man accused of making the bond that brought down pan am flight one o 3 in lockerbie scotland 34 years ago. as a pit and court in the united states. i will get a mohammed masoud her marie, me was taken into custody on sunday 2 years after the u. s. justice department and i was charges against him. the attack in 1988 killed all 259 people on board, the plane, and 11 on the ground. somewhat with surprise because it's been so long. but i'm really glad to see that our government has pursued this. and we're hopefully going to see not only from just this year, but perhaps more information about other people that will respond with the 2nd to 911 is the most deadly out here. this
12:21 am
is something we fought for for over 3 decades. how are we satisfied? no, i mean let's hear what happens in this trial is, is he the only person out there that is responsible for this bombing that is still alive and out there in free? no. she returns a joint live from washington dc. she, i'm what happened in court today. it was rather administrative, and in the end, i must say, it hasn't yet retained legal councils. i was decided that things will be delayed a little while, while, while he retains that council, however, the case was unsealed and the charges against him and the penalties, the possible penalties for those charges read out to him. multiple counts of destruction of aircraft, resulting in death aiding and abetting. those can lead to child is up to life in prison, the death penalty, or up to $250000.00 fine, or a combination of
12:22 am
a prison and a fine. and i think the main news that was made was that the government said it was not intending on pursuing the death penalty against my suits a note. death penalty will be pursued. this will now run and run there. it's probably going to be a rather long process, but i think we're still also tried to come to terms of how he ended up here because it was a surprise. and you could maybe tell from some of the comments we just had from the bereaved of luck of be off the lockerbie bombing. we've had various sort of narratives coming from various sources in libya and elsewhere. some of them are conflicting, but there was a sense that he was in libyan custody on unrelated, over an unrelated charge on or found to be guilty of pulsing against the revolution that asked mamma duffy. he was released 3 months ago on compassionate grounds because of cancer. but then he was promptly and this is, according to some reports he was promptly then kidnapped by a militia group, who then presumably entered into negotiations with the united states. so there a lot of questions about how we ended up here and the legality. about the,
12:23 am
the confession with which a lot of b j's indictment is based on which it's alleged of taking place when, when he was in the custody of a militia with particularly poor human rights record. so these are the questions, but just just very briefly checks all over the national security advisor. clearly anticipating some of these questions just said at the white house, i will say that this was done in a lawful manner according to established procedures. and for more specifics on how it happened, i would refer you to the justice department. she ampersands you. thank you very much. israel's defense minister has expressed sorrow after the shooting of a 15 year old palestinian girl in the occupied west bank and began, says israeli troops acted in self defense for the family of jana. as i carnie says, there were no palestinian fighters near the teenager. did abraham reports from janine 15 year old jenna's account and they used to play on this rooftop with her brother at ham, cousin hallad and her cat lulu. on monday they went to the spot where jenna was
