behind anti—epileptic drug sodium valproate. good afternoon and welcome to bbc news. police have released cctv range of a man wanted in connection with a car crash which killed three teenage boysin crash which killed three teenage boys in west london on friday night. ina boys in west london on friday night. in a statement, the metabolic police said three young men have lost lives

in such tragic circumstances must bar outweigh any tupou around existing police. investigators believe there were at least two men ina believe there were at least two men in a black audi who hit the three men. one man is under arrest. the three victims have been named locally as josh kennedy, george wilkinson and harry rice. our correspondent leigh miller has been at the scene for us. it remains a very sad scene here today. throughout the morning we have had tributes from friends, family, local residents for the three boys who sadly died here on friday night as we heard, they have been named locally asjosh kennedy, george wilkinson and harry rice. to painta george wilkinson and harry rice. to paint a picture of what happened, they were standing by that bus stop in the dock. a black audi mounted the pavement and hit them at speed. i have been over that was you can see the white markings on the

pavement are a chilling reminder of what happened. earlier i was speaking to the grandfather of one of those boys, george wilkinson, and he taught me how the family is feeling at the moment. the the mother has lost the plot. she has lost it. my wife is round there. she is there all the time, basically. she came home last night, a couple of hours sleep, and she has gone back again. how are you holding up? lam all back again. how are you holding up? i am all right to why think about it. yes. iwas i am all right to why think about it. yes. i was not going to stop here but i had to in the end. it. yes. i was not going to stop here but i had to in the endm told me to. how do you feel now you have come here? upset but i am pleased. he will be sorely missed. he will be. by the family, the whole family. so far 128-year-old

he will be. by the family, the whole family. so far128-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of dangerous driving. the police are still searching for a second man who fled the scene at the time and that is their main focus. we still don't know how many people work in the vehicle but they are appealing to the other witnesses who may be around at that time, 20 to nine on friday night when he may have been driving along this road at the time. this road plays a key part in this story. i have spoken to a few local residents and taxi drivers who have told me that speeding is the main road. the speed limit goes from 50 miles an hourto road. the speed limit goes from 50 miles an hour to 60. a few people have said they have had a few misses. they said it was an accident waiting to happen. they are calling for action orfor a waiting to happen. they are calling for action or for a change to waiting to happen. they are calling for action orfor a change to be made so that this doesn't happen again. the prime minister has come under

pressure from leave campaigners in her own party to take a hard line with europe over any transition arrangements after britain leaves the eu . brexit negotiators are preparing to set out the ground rules for how negotiations over a transition period will progress. this report by our political correspondent, susana mendonca, contains flash photography. if it felt a bit chilly for the prime minister in davos this week, the forecast isn't looking any warmer now she's back home. europesceptic backbenchers unhappy with theresa may's direction of travel on brexit have been piling on the pressure for days and they aren't letting up. i think this is troubling on a number of counts. first of all, the prime minister said implementation which meant we would have left and would then be implementing the consequences of having leaving. currently, there's no clear destination either in the government's mind or, indeed, agreed with the european union and no set time limit. one friend of mine said it looked more like a plank than a bridge. number ten says it's committed to delivering brexit and one

of mrs may's allies has come to her defence. the conservative family, left right and centre, we're a broad church, needs to come together in a spirit of mutual respect. there are difference in any broad church, and look at what the bigger picture is showing. the labour leader is facing his own divisions in a party that predominately voted to remain in the eu. today, jeremy corbyn may have placated some by telling the andrew marr show that labour would want to be part of a kind of customs union after brexit. but those hoping for a second referendum might not be so happy with this. what we've asked for and demanded in parliament has been a meaningful vote in parliament at the end of it so mps can... i'm on about the people deciding not parliament. and what happened with this bill was, it was an undemocratic power grab by the government. we're not asking for a second referendum. and you're not going to? the american president, who met mrs may in davos this week, has offered his own words of wisdom

on brexit, that he'd have been tougher than she has been. i think i would have negotiated it differently. i would have had a different attitude. what would you have done? i think i would have said the european union is not cracked up to what it's supposed to be and i would have taken a tougher stand in getting out. the ball‘s back in the eu's court this week. the other 27 member states will prepare to set out their own position on the transition period after brexit. susana mendonca, bbc news. the russian opposition leader, alexei navalny, has been detained by police in moscow. another 185 people have been detained in support of him in a number of russian cities. he was arrested as he attended a demonstration supporting a boycott of the presidential election in march, which he claims will be rigged.

this was what he had to say to his own online news channel before he was arrested. translation: i'm the head of the anti—corruption fund and i was a presidential candidate, but first and foremost, i'm a citizen, who wants to have normal election and who is not prepared to take, any longer, all this nonsense that's been going on for the past 18 years. and to extend this nonsense for another six years. our correspondent, steve rosenberg, has been at the demonstration in pushkin square in central moscow. he is russia's most prominent opposition voice, opposition leader. he's also the most vocal critic of president putin, and he has been barred from running in the presidential election which takes place in march. the reason? a suspended prison sentence he says, and his supporters say, is politically motivated. now we were standing right next to mr navalny earlier this afternoon when he was detained. it was quite dramatic. he was walking up the main street in moscow, towards pushkin square, then a group of russian police moved him, grabbed him,

bundled him into a police van, and he was driven away. so quite dramatic, and when his supporters on pushkin square heard he had been detained, they were shouting "freedom to navalny, down with the kremlin" and "putin is a thief." the russian authorities maintain this was an unsanctioned protest, that the navalny supporters didn't have the right to be on pushkin square. now they maintain they don't need to get special permission to come out and express their opinion and denounce the presidential election. the kremlin maintains this election in march is free and fair, and that voters will have a choice of candidates to vote for, but i think it is important to say, in the system of power which vladimir putin has constructed over the last decade—and—a—half or so, it's often referred to as managed democracy. here we have a managed election.

it is vladimir putin who dominates air time on russian tv. he is the face you see most of. and only those candidates who don't pose a risk to vladimir putin's power have been allowed to take part in this election. we arejust going we are just going to show you some live pictures coming to us from moscow as darkness begins to fall. that shot has just frozen. we will see if it comes good. these are demonstrators on the move, pro—alexei navalny and anti the presidential election in march which they claim will be wheat. those demonstrators on the move through moscow on the day that alexei navalny has been detained by police in the russian capital and another 185 people have been detained at opposition rallies around russia. more than 100 people are now confirmed dead —

and 230 injured — in yesterday's bomb attack in the afghan capital, kabul. it's the worst attack there for several months. our correspondent, secunder kermani, is in kabul. the authorities have been working throughout the night and into the morning, to clear up the scene of the explosion. they're not allowing us past this cordon at the moment, but you can still see some of the damage that was caused. the suicide attacker was driving an ambulance packed with explosives. he managed to get past this first checkpoint, but then when he reached a second one, and was apparently questioned, he blew himself up. it's not exactly clear what his target was. a police building is right opposite the scene of the blast. the indian embassy is also just slightly further up the road. but, as is often the case, it seems that a large number of those killed and wounded in this terrible incident are civilians. translation: i was sitting and working on the computer,

and suddenly i heard a huge bang. then the whole ceiling fell down on top of me. this attack comes just a week after the taliban killed more than 20 people in another attack on the intercontinental hotel in kabul. they've claimed responsibility for this explosion, too, which has been widely condemned by both leaders in afghanistan and across the world, including the us president, donald trump. the security situation in afghanistan, and in particular in kabul, seems to be getting a lot worse. militants seem to be focusing their efforts on targeting the capital, rather than on fighting security forces in rural areas. but to give you an idea of the level of bloodshed in the country, more than 2,000 civilians lost their lives in the first nine months of last year alone. ingvar kamprad, the founder of the swedish furniture

giant, ikea, has died. he was 91. he started the company when he was just 17. the firm said he'd passed away peacefully at his home in southern sweden. here's our business corespondent, joe lynam. ingvar kamprad can safely be described as a retailing genius. born in 1926 in southern sweden, he started selling matches aged five. then seeds and then pencils. at 17, he formed ikea — named after his own initials and the area where he was born. now, it's probably the best known furniture store in the world with over 400 giant shops and annual sales of $112 billion. mr kamprad was inspired to create the idea of flat—packed furniture when watching someone remove the legs off a table to fit it into a customer's car. ikea grew exponentially in the 1980s based on the simple but untested idea that customers would buy well—designed furniture and assemble it in their own homes. one famous designer

tipped his hat today at what ingvar kamprad had achieved. he actually tapped into the taste that every ordinary person wanted. so they could get this new wave of modernity that was coming about in the 1950s, and he managed to trap it and make it available to everybody. ikea said ingvar kamprad, who was involved with the business until recently, would be much missed by his family and warmly remembered by the company's employees worldwide. joe lynam looking back at the life of ingvar kamprad, who's died at the age of 91. i can speak to niki brantmark, a brit who moved to sweden and is the creator of interior website my scandinavian home. thank you forjoining us. just

assess borrowers the impact that ikea and ingvar kamprad has had on our lives. -- assess for us. everyone knows ikea. everyone has some ikea furniture at home. it fits in with our houses. this is actually a big thing. i guess that idea, that simple yet probably revolutionary idea at the time, of deconstructing a manager so idea at the time, of deconstructing a manager so that the average person could put it together in our homes was something very new at the time. —— deconstructing furniture. was something very new at the time. -- deconstructing furniture. it was much more portable and made it more logistical and friendly so that they could keep the prices down and more people could have access to better

furniture. do you think that ikea appeals not just to furniture. do you think that ikea appeals notjust to those who are starting out with their first home but doesn't appeal to those who have moved up the property ladder as well? yes, absolutely. the beauty of ikea furniture is it combines really nice aesthetic appeal with a practical edge as well and it blends in so it is really easy to mix with more high end pieces, perhaps with vintage and antiques as well. ikea has been at the forefront of that wave which has built and built. in the last five, ten years it has become a huge thing, and appreciation of scandinavian design. the whole design aspect of it has really, really ta ken the whole design aspect of it has really, really taken off in the last five years. before that, everyone was really familiar with ikea. everyone knows the store and has pieces. it set the foundation for it to move on. everyone was familiar

with the concept. when the new design is a new nordic businesses came into play, everyone was aware of the style. actually it is popular. in terms of a lesson for any would—be entrepreneurs out there, ingvar kamprad, certainly, his life story can teach the lot of lessons. starting at the very young child selling matches moving on to simple christmas tree decorations and so on. what lessons have you picked up from the way he lived his life and built this huge retail giant? one of the key things about this entrepreneur is that he is actually very humble. even though he has had this huge vision and everything and his business has been so everything and his business has been so successful, he has become a billionaire. he is very not too much, not too little. he is humble and laid—back. he is said to drive a battered volvo. with his employees,

he is really accessible for that eve ryo ne he is really accessible for that everyone who has worked with him get to meet him. he mixes among people. that is really inspiring ie is such a big icon in sweden. let me just ask you what is your favourite ikea product? it has to be the billy book shelf. it is so iconic. everyone knows this book shelf by name. it blends into every home. everyone loves a book and it is perfect. the queue for talking to us. i appreciate your time. thank you. i certainly have a few of those bookcases in my home as well. i'm sure a lot of you do as well. police have released the image of a man they want to speak to in connection with the deaths of three teenagers who are hit by a car in west london on friday. the prime

minister comes under pressure from leave campaign in her party to take a hard line with europe. the total of 185 people have been detained at opposition rallies in russia including the opposition leader, alexei navalny. coming up shortly, 16 and 17—year—olds in wales could she —— shortly be able to vote in local elections. paris remains on high alert, with water levels continuing to rise along the river seine. the country has seen some of the heaviest rain for a century, and the river is expected to rise six metres higher than normal. our europe correspondent kevin connolly has the latest from the french capital. predicting extreme weather is always problematic. the river level is continuing to rise, but the maximum point it is now expected to reach is not as high as it was a couple of days ago and it's thought not likely to reach the levels we saw during the floods of 2016, for example. the people of paris and tourists are adjusting to the swollen river. the police here have

issued a warning that you shouldn't swim or go canoeing in the river, not a warning that most of us, of course, have needed. this has been a winter of exceptional rain in france, some regions have seen levels they have not seen since the 1950s. so, the peak of the river seine's flooding is likely to be reached some point between sunset on sunday and dawn on monday morning but the consequences of this, especially in communities further out in the seine valley, where there has been realflooding, will take weeks or months to resolve. a close friend and political ally of president trump has resigned as head of fundraising for the republican party after accusations he sexually harassed women who worked at him. steve wynn, a billionaire casino owner, was chosen by mr trump to be finance chairman of the republican

national committee. he is alleged to have subjected dozens of women to one wanted sexual advances. he described the claims published by the wall streetjournal as preposterous. more than 16,000 people have signed a petition to reinstate walk—on girls at all professional darts corporation competitions. the corporation says it will no longer employ women to escort male players onto the stage — following discussions with broadcasters. the move's been welcomed by campaigners for gender equality in sport. a team of elite mountaineers has rescued one of two climbers stranded near the top of the pakistan's most dangerous mountains. french climber elisabeth revol was found during a high—risk night rescue mission on nanga prabat, which is also known as "killer mountain". the search for her polish climbing partner tomek mackiewicz has been called off due to bad weather and treacherous high—altitude conditions. earlier my colleague, ben brown, spoke to masha gordon, a fellow mountaineer and friend of elizabeth revol,

and who spearheaded a crowd—funding campaign to help with the rescue attempt. she began by explaining why she needed to raise the money. the authorities demanded $35,000 up front in cash. in fact we lost a day of rescue because we didn't have cash on hand. once the fundraising was on the way, we were able to demonstrate we had the money. so when did you first realise she was in trouble, the pair of them were in trouble and you needed to do a rescue? we received a text on thursday night about 7pm, london time, saying that tomasz, after the summit, got snow blind and developed severe frostbite and that they needed the rescue, and in the following 72 hours we were scrambling to get the money going and to get the helicopters necessary for that attempt. we were extraordinarily lucky to have a very competent team of climbers doing an historic ascent of k2. we were able to pick them up in the helicopter yesterday, and mount that ascent.

we have just been seeing some of the pictures there of elizabeth and her friend, and sadly, the rescue attempt for herfriend tomasz, that has been called off for know, is that right? correct, because he was left — elizabeth had to make a very heartbreaking decision of leaving him — at 7200 metres. he was in agonising condition, he was in, one could say a coma. she started her descent to try to get the rescue attempt on the way. she was then — she had no tent, no sleeping bag, because they were doing the light alpine style attempt, and she had to stop at 6700 metres herself because she started developing frostbite. tell us about this mountain. we said it is the killer mountain, right, why is it so dangerous and why do people still want to try and climb such a lethally dangerous mountain? i have to make a statement that both of them are one of the best mountaineers there are.

she's in fact the best female alpinist. people are driven by obviously the quest. she became the first woman to make a winter ascent. this is the ninth highest mountain in the world. winter ascents are done alpine style, without any support in minus a0 temperatures. what do you think went wrong on this attempt? i mean, was it lack of preparation, was it bad luck, was itjust the weather? absolutely not. it's, you know, it's the human body. when you are climbing without oxygen at such attitude in such temperature, anything could happen. in fact, the reason why she got into trouble was because he got into trouble and she had to stay back and help him down. she managed to bring him down 300 metres from the summit at which point she realised that that was not going to happen. 16 and 17—year—olds in wales are to be given the right to vote in local elections, under plans published by the welsh government. if approved, wales would follow scotland, where the voting age has already been lowered for national and local elections. the labour party has called for the idea to be extended to the whole of the uk.

gavin thomas reports. after yea rs of struggle and campaigns by the suffrage movement, 1918 was the year in which the representation of the people act was passed in parliament. for the first time, voting was expanded to all men aged over 21, and to some women aged over 30. now, 100 years on, in wales, the labour devolved government is planning to cut the voting age in local elections to 16. it follows the example of scotland, where a similar change came into force in 2016. there, it also applies to national elections. the local government minister in cardiff bay says the time is right. i think everyone who pays taxes should be able to vote, and that means people who are 17, and people who are 16 as well, so i would like to see us moving the franchise to enable younger people to take part in the democratic process. the minister says he wants voting to become more attractive and welcoming, and he's spoken of his concern that young people are becoming disengaged from politics. i think it would be a good thing

for us to be able to vote, because we would be voting for our future. but at the same time, i don't think we get educated enough about politics. i think we are educated enough as 16—year—olds, because we use our social media, we see the parties... the advertisement they put out there. the welsh government will formally announce the proposals on tuesday. gavin thomas, bbc news. tennis, and roger federer has won his 20th grand slam title with victory at the australian open. he beat marin cilic in five sets in melbourne. james burford watched the match. the warning signs were there for all to see, 20 grand slams the prize for the swiss. he's already the most successful male singles player of all time. what an arena then in which to surpass another milestone. never one to waste time, a fast start is something of a trademark for the 36—year—old.

the forehand looking as strong as it ever has done. just 2a minutes into the match and a first set point, you needn't give roger federer a second chance, amid the heat somehow keeping cool. what is a final without a fightback? cilic, a magician in his own right. after this tournament, he becomes the third highest ranked player in the world and has every shot in the book. commentator: that time he was compsed. so, spellbinding though is federer‘s tennis, you can never truly cast him aside. how often over the years have we seen him hammering down an ace to regain the lead, even with the mighty thor watching in the crowd? by no means finished, cilic forced a fifth and final set, fighting spirit there for all to see. but this was to be federer‘s day. the first man to win 20 grand slams and a sixth australian open title. of course winning is just an absolute dream come true. the fairytale continues for us, for me. after the great year i had last year, it's incredible.

cheering emotions running high, 20 already, how many more can this great champion win? james burford, bbc news. coming up: and at 2:30pm, tarah welsh investigates the shocking truth behind anti—epileptic drug sodium valproate. it was really mild today. sunspots have got all away up to 1a or 15 degrees. —— some spots. in east wales, the midlands, lincolnshire and east anglia it has been 1a, 15, the best of the sunshine. cloudy in

other areas and outbreaks of rain elsewhere. in the north west of scotla nd elsewhere. in the north west of scotland it will turn windy in the afternoon. confirmation of mild conditions for most. this evening and tonight wet and windy for a time in scotland. the western windy weather sinks further south in northern ireland and the north of england. to the north something colder. tomorrow is about bringing this band of rain, a cold front further southwards and eastwards. with that some heavy bursts of rain and strong and gusty winds. the sky will brighten. wintry showers packing in across the north west as things begin to turn colder. this is bbc news, our latest headlines. police have released an image of the man they want to speak to in connection with the deaths of three teenagers who were hit by a car in west london on friday. the prime minister comes under pressure from leave campaigners in her own party to take a hard line with europe.

a total of 185 people have been detained at opposition rallies across russia, including opposition leader alexei navalny. the founder of the swedish furniture giant ikea, ingvar kamprad, has died at the age of 91.
