are you wearing a wire? when is mummy coming? sarah! sarah! aah! >> this is bbc america. and now, live from london, "bbc world news". >> welcome to bbc wofrld news. i'm nik gowing. the main hals at this hour. possible wreckage of the missing airliner is seen on satellite images in the southern association, south of australia. military aircraft are heading to the location. the first should be there about now. >> every aspect is being made to locate the airliner on the satellite imagery.

>> renewed diplomatic efforts over the an exation of crimea. the u.s. sent general is in moscow to meet president putin. >> four found guilty of rape of a photo journalist. and the chicken from hell. it is a cross between a bird and a hreufrd. hello, everyone. we now have a credible lead. on the 13th day after the disappearance of flight mh-370. two possible pieces of debris have been spotted by satellite

on the southernmost tip of the massive operation to find the ma hraeuz airlines plane. here are the images from the australian maritime agency. they were taken four days ago. it's taken that long to process them. one piece of debris is described as 25 meters long, the other 5 meters. both appear to be awash with water. they were spotted in the southern ocean 2,300 kilometers south of perth. it's a remote deep area of ocean with high winds and strong currents. it is four hours of flying time from perspective. well, four p-3 orion reconnaissance aircraft have arrived to make more detailed assessments. one is due there at any point.

malaysia says it is north and south. that's unless and until the debris southwest of australia does belong to flight mh-370. well, let's hear now from the malaysian authorities who have are just completed a briefing. not much was revealed. they stress they need to find answers as quickly as possible for the families of those on board. >> all the families around the world, the one piece of information that we want most, that they want most is information we just don't have, the location of mh-370. ow primary focus has always been to find the aircraft. and our efforts have intensified. we now have a credible lead. there remains much work to be

done to deploy the assets and this work will continue overnight. >> jonah fischer is at kuala lumpur. jonah, that critical word used by the transportation minister, credible. >> the same word we heard from the australian prime minister earlier when he announced they had two in the southern ocean, which could potentially be linked to flight mh-370. i think there's a bit of a sense that it is the australians out of perth and the americans leading in that southern sector. remember this debris which is found. we still don't know exactly what it is. it is south and to the east of a search area when they have been narrowing down the last few days. they isolated this area in the first place thanks to satellite data communicated between

maintenance aboard the plane and is the light in the indian ocean. they have whittled that down by cross-references information. they know how much fuel is on the plane and the known radar they have. so areas they know the plane could have flown across without being spotted. they narrowed down that area. south and east they found this debris. one big piece, 24 meters across. another smaller piece. we believe there is an american plane nearby, a poseidon, which can search underneath the water for any aircraft. if a plane crashes into a water it is expected the remains will be scattered across a wide area. >> jonah, i was struck as well by the transportation minister looking for gloomy and grim. it's been a deeply stressful time. yesterday i was talking to you

when you were moving around a regular camera and you were facing a a wall of police because you were trying to get the to the relatives of some of those on the plane. we just heard from the transportation minister. "i regret the way they were treated." do you see a change in the attitude from the malaysian authorities, the police and the airline towards the relatives who are clearly distraught about what's happening? >> well, the relatives are in a different hotel from here. they've been kept very separate from the journalists over the last 13 days. even tried to speak to them. some of them have been willing to speak to us. it's been with mindness presence. the response of the malaysian authorities was to realize it was an absolute p.i. disaster.

to be dragged away was quite awful. today the big changes is they have tightened security. there are police and armed guards. they are checking more carefully who goes into the press conference. they are key to prevent what happened yesterday. >> thank you very much indeed from kuala lumpur airport. what about the detail, the credible search going on in the package of sea, the southern ocean off australia. andy, you have been trying to piece together through american sources what happened and why it was inevitable probably that would be the area where debris might be found. certainly they have been saying sometime now they were searching a relatively limited area. the 2.4 million miles that was being searched. >> that is an enormous area 2.5

kilometers from perspective. >> the new search area is much smaller than that and it is south and east. so it is even more refined in the area we can see on that. >> the important thing is this arc that came down from kuala lumpur. what was happening between this electronic handshake between the system and the receiver of the communications system happening every hour you have pieced that together. >> yes. bbc sources told me they were pinged on an hourly basis. you can guess the track of the airport. that would have gone either north or south. and the aircraft has to be at the end of that at the north or at the south. it cannot be tpheurpls along that long corridor. my sources told me this has been in the public domain for some

time. but for whatever reason has not been revealed to the authorities. it narrows down the search, which is what the australians have done and why they have found this debris. >> you are saying between 012 on saturday morning almost two weeks ago and 0811 which is when the last definite handshake was said to have taken place, there were handshakes every hour. it could be tracked as opposed to say it could be there in the south. it could be in the north. >> they could be tracked. but the tracks were mirror images of each other north and south of the equator. it could have gone north. very likely. it could have gone south. my sources also told me that those pings could only have come from a moving aircraft. they could not have come from an aircraft parked on the ground, sending out a signal.

it had to be from a moving aircraft. >> who made this and could have made that deduction pretty early? >> we don't know. what we do know is the aus traditions were working on data from the u.s. national transportation safety board. and they said publicly a day or two ago they had managed to really track the movement of the aircraft. and that's why they have narrowed it down to this particular search area. they have said nothing publicly on record. >> why not? >> they say they are helping the malaysian authorities but that is all. on record. >> there is well, let's now move to those still deeply concerned about their relatives.

thank you very much indeed. you have sailed this area of the southern ocean. what are your reflections approximate what you know about the region? >> this area has a heavy concentration of garbage due to tides. so there's lots of plastic, lots of floating damage. and what i feel now they are saying they are zeroing down this area from a satellite image. i don't know what they can get out of that. i don't know. i really don't know what the situation is.

my sister is traveling from -- to go to mongolia for a food and agricultural conference over there. in kuala lumpur she chinged. that's why we are here. >> what is her profession? what are her skels which meant where she wasutable institute i. she had deny her doctorat on the same subject. did she fly to conferences, like

so many of us, i suppose, moving around the world -- >> yes. she was out of the country about 15 days -- 10 to 15 days a month. >> what is your reflection of the way the airline and the malaysian authorities have been in touch with you and how much they have kept you up to date as one of just over 200 members of families around the world? >> they have kept the familiar up to date in the sense they said not to believe anybody. not to believe the press. not to believe the news channels. not to believe anybody. they said we will update you as and when. that's what they are saying. >> did you believe them? have you been believing them

with when their morning briefings? >> well, i've been believing them but i have been picking my bits and pieces from everywhere. because i want to believe she is still alive and she will be home for her birthday, which is the 30th of march. >> how are the rest of the family coping with the stress of this for the last 13 days? >> it's been -- the moments have been very anxious. they have been very anxious. the moments have been very anxious. sorry. and it's not been -- my mother repeatedly has been saying, my daughter is going to come back. >> how many members of the family do you have around you and elsewhere in india?

>> in india, this was my sister and my mother, who is 88 years old. i have an older brother who lives in australia in sydney. >> what is your feeling today, captain? we're privileged to speak to you. and thank you very much at a very difficult time for coming into the studio. what are your reflections 13 days on that it has taken this long to get this kind of possibility but credible leads that something may happen to the aircraft. >> i mean, it's been 12 days on. during those seven hours of passage the plane has been flying and they couldn't catch it on radar. it's amazing that the aircraft

industry is -- you have to catch it. even if you don't get the transponder, you have to get an image on the radar. it has to come on the radar. and they are saying -- i'm sorry. even as i can't understand. because you can't lose it on the radar. even if your automatic identification system has gone off. you have to blip on the radar. they say it can go mirror image north and south. in my sensibilities, i think -- i want to hope for the best. they must have done a lot of research on this. they have done a lot of research. but i do not believe they won't get blips on a radar. and any object which is flying

gets a regular one. it has to come. >> one final question if i may, captain. let me return to your experience in the southern ocean. it's similar to the question i asked at the beginning. describe the challenges and the kind of sea there is down there and how much traffic you might meet. how much other mayor tan traffic might be down there. >> well, i cannot tell you how much maritime traffic. there can be a substantial amount of traffic there. and the seas are normally very rough. >> is it the winds, the currents, or a combination of everything? >> the winds, the cold fronts. that sea over there can be very, very bad. but at the moment i don't know.

i'm not following the weather report there, so i really can't tell you anything. but the seas very, very rough. >> captain, thank you very much indeed for sparing time to join us live from delhi hearing about your sister who is one of the passengers on the airliner. thank you very much. stay with us here on bb krrld white house. still to come, american scientists discover a new species of dinosaur which could help explain how they became instinct. soon, the world's most intelligent servers, designed by hp, will give ups over twice the performance, using forty percent less energy. multiply that across over a thousand locations, and they'll provide the same benefit to the environment as over 60,000 trees. that's a trend we can all get behind.

[ woman #3 ] to travel the world without leaving home. [ male announcer ] whatever the reason. whatever the dish. make it delicious with swanson. you're with bb krrld world news with me nik gowing. i have the latest headlines for you. possible wreckage of the malaysian airliners found in the southern ocean. more diplomatic efforts over

the afpb nextation of crimea. the u.s. secretary-general is going for talks with president putin while the european union considers more sanctions. now, to kiev. the ukrainian capital where reports say that the commander of the ukrainian navy has been released. the admiral was detained weapons when masked men forced their way into ukraine's naval headquarters in sevastopol. angela merkel said they will impose more sanctions on russia. >> at the european council, heads of state and government will face second phase sanctions we agreed on two weeks ago that includes a widening of whom we will issue travel restrictions and asset freezes. after that, we will decide on

consequences for the eu. >> let's go to richard galpin in russia. you have ban ki-moon, u.n. secretary-general. and this kind of language from angela merkel. do you think president putin has taken any notice. >> not at the moment. i don't think particularly, no. and mr. ban ki-moon will be pushing hard to try to get russia to negotiate directly with the ukrainian leadership. but whether he is in the mood for doing that i think is very much open to doubts. having successfully annexed crimea. he will be considering his next move. that will be something of a huge concern for the international community and for ban ki-moon. as he talks to mr. putin, he

will try to persuade him to de-fuse tensions rather than the possibility of further military intervention. russia's troops remain on the eastern border. although in his speech a couple of days ago did say that russia did not want to divide ukraine. do you think we could summarize it as a predictable irritation to simply nudge aside and be polite about but move on and do what he was going to do anyway. >> yes. in terms of sanctions. if the eu is talking about expanding estate freezes and travel bans, i don't think that's going to particularly affect the kremlin. of course it depends who they target. if it's healthy businessman, they might start getting pretty

fed up with the kremlin policy. but i don't think that's going to make that much difference at this stage. also what was very significant from the german chance hrar angela merkel, she went on to say if there is further escalation in the crisis, and i presume she means if there were to be russian troops moving into different parts beyond crimea, they would impose the third sanctions, which are economic sanctions, trade sagzs which would hit the russian economy hard. >> richard, thanks. we await signals for meeting with the secretary-general and also the meeting of the european union in brussels. thanks, richard. . four men found guilty of the gang rape of a 22-year-old photo journalist. it made headlines around the world. it came after the gang rape and murder of a student on a bus in delhi.

we have a report now from mumbai. >> reporter: this course has witnessed what perhaps has been one of the quickest big trials in india. it's taken less than seven months. in august 2013, a photo journalist on assignment taking pictures in the heart of mumbai was gang raped by five men and her colleague assaulted. now, four of those men have been held guilty. a fifth was found to be juvenile, which means he was under the age of 18. he is being trade in a spreut court. as far as sentencing is concerned both sides will present their arguments tomorrow. the court will decide what punishment they should be given. the prosecution in fact, is saying they are going to try to see if there is any precedent in which these men can get harsher punishment. one of the things that it promised was quicker trials.

we have seen that sometimes cases can go on for decades without outcome. we did see an outcome in nine months. these made it to the headlines of newspapers that had the media spotlight on them. in the big challenge it will be to assure this speedy action is in short in all the numerous cases that take place across the country. >> finally, scientists in america say they have discovered a new species of dinosaur. it offers further clues how they became instinct 66 million years ago. it looks like a cross between an ostrich and lizard and being dubbed the chicken from hell. many researchers argued the dinosaurs were in decline because of climate change.

but it offers further proof that they were still evolving and they were diverse and flourishing >> malaysian authorities saying there is credible evidence that to bits of debris in the southern ocean off australia may be part of the malaysian aircraft. stay with us here. at 5 times greater risk of a stroke. that's why i take my warfarin every day. but it looks like maybe we should ask your doctor about pradaxa. in a clinical trial, pradaxa® (dabigatran etexilate mesylate)... ...was proven superior to warfarin at reducing the risk of stroke. and unlike warfarin, with no regular blood tests or dietary restrictions. hey thanks for calling my doctor. sure. pradaxa is not for people with artificial heart valves. don't stop taking pradaxa without talking to your doctor. stopping increases your risk of stroke. ask your doctor if you need to stop pradaxa before surgery or a medical or dental procedure. pradaxa can cause serious, sometimes fatal, bleeding. don't take pradaxa if you have abnormal bleeding or have had a heart valve replaced.

after negotiations through the night, the american union agrees on a framework for a banking union. could toyota's massive payout be a glimpse into general motors's future? hello and welcome to "world business report". i'm maryam moshiri.

the u.n. has finally agreed on a banking union for eurozone banks. it ends a long deadlock and includes the setting up of a joint authorities that can restructure or shut down failing banks. a special found will be built up after eight years and will be used to cover the confident of bank closures. it would give the european central bank the primary role in triggers the closure of the bank. we'll have more throughout the day here on "bbc world news". but next, can money buy happiness? apparently not. a new report into global prosperity release odd world happiness day concludes that economic growth isn't enough. countries shouldn't measure their success on the size of the economies alone but must look at the happiness of their people. what can governments do to

improve happiness? he thinks gdp is too narrow a measure? we have been talking for many centuries haven't we in this world. >> it is ancient wisdom coming the modern life again. if you look at our political discussions, our news media, so often it's the state of the economy that seems to be the number one priority. what we are finding today, united nations, international day of happiness is actually a shift in global priorities actually. as you were saying in your introduction. of course it matters hugely there is more to a good life. we should be looking to promote and enhance people's well beings as the wealth of the economy. >> what does make people happy? >> well, across countries globally the single most

important external factor for happiness and well-being is our relationships. we are a connected species. our relationships in our communities and work places. those are the fabric of our well auto being. it has not to be support and positive and trusting relationships. but the other big factor is internal. the other thing that drives is our mental health. another important finding is we should be prioritizing a lot more spending on heating towards mental health as well as physical health. it underpins our productive, our relationships, our ability to cope when times are tough. >> all of these seem subjective to me. how can a get get involved in making an individual happy? >> it is subjective. that's why it is quite important.

we have of course many vitally important measures. nobody can determine how happy or thriving somebody is purely by looking at what they earn, where they live. you have to ask somebody about their own personal experiences of life. the way to measure is by asking, how satisfied are you overall on a scale of 0 to 10. when you gather that data in a significant way across large numbers of people and nations you find important insight into how people are experiencing the quality of life. it should be measured more. >> very briefly, mark, are you happy? >> i'm very happy. today is the international day of happiness. people are involved all around the world. it makes me happy is my family and the fact that i do a job that i care about. >> now, let's talk about carmakers. toyota finally reached a $1.2 million settlement with u.s.

regulators. it came after toyota recalled more than 10 million vehicles after issues with brakes, accelerators and floor mats. g.m. has now recalled 1.6 million cars. the u.s. justice department launched an investigation into whether they recalled in a fair and legal way. we have a report now from new york. >> reporter: as someone who spends 90 tpheupbs in her car every day, she needs her 2006 chevy cobalt to get here where she is going safely is is. but problems with the ignition that caused some cars to suddenly turn off has the manufacturer calling that safety into question. >> i was so excited that they have a cobalt. that's the car i've been looking at for years.

i'm definitely getting this. this is my first new car and everything. now i'm really upset, disappointed and very angry that, you know, i was let down. >> g.m. is recalling more than 4 million cars, including samantha's. and recently admitted it knew of the faulty tphegz signals as early as 2004. marry barra is already accepting responsibility for not acting sooner. >> something went wrong with our process in this substance and terrible things happened. we have apologized. but that is just one step in the journey to resolve this. >> after a bail skwrourbgts g.m. has been struggle to go shed its image as a money that needed seeding from itself. since then, it has been able to regain as an automaker of reliable cars, even winning some

awards. this will be i big test for the new g.m. >> when you see some of the recalls, specifically the ones in the early 2000s, 2003, 2005, 2006 vehicles, i think the public might think a little bit about, well, that's the old general motors. this is a different company. they are just cleaning out the closets still from some of those older vehicles that were not as well built as they are now. >> i pray every day i get to and from work in one piece. nothing does happen. i'm not that 304th person killed in her car. >> fixing samantha's car is g.m.'s first priority. but there are also rumblings of an education by the u.s. justice department. if toyota's whopping $1.2 billion fine is any example, this could be a very costly recall for g.m. bbc news, new york.

let's look at other business news now. hi attachy will move its global rail business to the uk. the company is already building a factory in the north of england. it was a huge vote of confidence. the u.s. federal reserve chair janet yellen indicated that interest rates in the u.s. could start to rise in early 2015. she said it would scale back bond inches. now, this is the third time in a row the central bank has tightened its stimulus efforts. let's take a look how the rarbgts reacted to all of this news. everyone relies on low american interest rates. it means the european markets reacted negatively. down 57 points on the ftse. the banking union from the european union, talks going on overnight to come to some sort of agreement.

hello. i'm chris mitchell. this is "sport today". manchester united david moyes sees his striker robin van persie score three in the champions league. the men in gray suits. can juventus brighten the europa

league by scoring in their own stadium. it's seventh heaven as the the new york knicks starts the new phil jackson era with another win. manchester united were in a tight spot 2-0 down from the first leg. both they and borussia dortmund have taken the final two starts in the last eight of the european champions league. hello. this is "sport today". robin van persie scoring his first champions league hat trick. what good timing. a penalty through the first half. a second before half-time. a free kick from early in the second half. the reigning english prehere phaoeg champions. and well off the pace in the

title race. >> we needed to bounce back. we played very well. >> so has david moyes solved his problems at manchester united? perhaps not. two of the three goals were set up by ryan giggs. not the future for old trafford. the 40-year-olds performance. he was in the strting 11. he was praised by a former teammate. >> he's a special player. i've played against him. i've played with him. he's unbelievable. he's the one player you don't want to play against because his movement and agility have always been second to none. only maybe somebody like ronaldo that's maybe a little bit better than him. he has so much experience.

>> zenit st. petersburg voted andre villas-boas the new coach this week. they were handed a life line who put them ahead early in the first half. borussia dortmund leveled shortly before the end of the first half. they couldn't capitalize as last year's runners upheld on to go 5-4 on aggregate. >> translator: i'm really proud of my traoups. despite all adversity we managed this strong competitor. we will try to see what is possible without achieving just a b grade this time. >> confirmation of the last eight. two from germany. two from england.

and paris-saint germain which take place on friday. you may have noticed there are no italian sides left in the champions league. there's an all italian clash in the europa last 16. fiorentina are fourth in serie a. they mappinged a 1-1 draw. so it is easily poised in the first match. they will welcome the return of carlos tevez, the top scorer, after a minor injury. football reporter john bennett in ahead of the game. he's been speaking to juve midfielder asamoah. >> still disappointed that the fact that the club were knocked out in the group stages of the lucrative champions league. there is a silver lining. a drop to the europa and the final will take place here at the home ground at juventus

stadium. and that means the players are hugely motivated for the tournament. >> both champions and europa is not easy. it ask very difficult. we still have the league to play. on thursday we went to confront this game. do our maximum best. >> the brazilian world cup winner rauponald dino missed a penalty. the defending champions took on the paraguayan side. awarded a penalty there early on in the game. but ronald dino's effort well saved. just a few minutes later, though, he was awarded another

penalty when his free kick was handled. you can see it here in the replay. clearly handled. this time he scored to give his side the lead. just after the half hour mark, he grabbed the equalizer. unbeaten after four games. they stayed top in that group. now, the new york the knicks center a new president. you know him well. it's going well already as well. phil jackson introduced to the madison square gardens as they beat the pacers on wednesday. he won two championships as a player before becoming an 11-time champion coach. he scored 34 points as the nicks won 92-86, the seventh win in a row for them. they are one spot off the playoffs right now. tiger woods won't be there to

defend his title. the arnold palmer gets under way. they are resting an injured back. he will still be at the top of the rankings despite missing the event. hoping to overtake him is "the master"s champion adam scott. winning tournaments remain his priority. >> to be number one in the world is a pretty wonderful achievement in whatever you're doing. but, again, i think that if i finish my career and i was on a list for two pages, three pages, that's something that i would probably hold a little closer than saying i was number one for a week. it's hard to think getting to number one. thaepb it then tiger has gone 100. it pales in comparison.

i want to be picked up, put down, again and again. >> nmmphomaniac has been making their way through festivals and opening up in different countries, eliciting strong responses, largely because of the graphic sex. it's the story of jo, a mymphomaniac.

>> i was surprised because it very stupidly i thought before i read the script that it was someone having a lot of fun -- having a lot of sex and a lot of pleasure. and i understand it was all about suffering. >> do you think it's a portrait of something more serious, sexual addiction in a way. >> for me it's a woman trying to portray herself as a bad human being. being responsible for all the suffering she has gone through. and understanding a little bit more about herself by the end. >> you think you know everything about sex. >> much of the coverage of the first has been good graphic sex. in turkey, it is being

classified as pornography. >> the fact that your culture is so friendly towards images of articulate violence but semi horrified by the fear of sex is one of the great questions. you know, it's very disturbing. i'm not promoting either thing but it's interesting. >> there has been evidence of an appetite for films in the u.s. with bold sexual depictions. >> there is a definite swath of moviegoers who are very comfortable with graphic depictions of sexuality. indeed with discussions of sexuality. a film like blue is the warmest
