our correspondent in tokyo, rupert wingfield hayes, has more on mr ghosn‘s re—arrest. this was something of a surprise because the allegations that mr ghosn has apparently been detained to investigate this morning by tokyo prosecutors are part of an investigation being carried out by renault in france, not by nissan here injapan. it is not clear exactly why prosecutors here in tokyo feel it is their place to rearrest mr ghosn and question him about an investigation that is taking place far away in another country in anotherjurisdiction. nonetheless, they have gone ahead and done so today. we believe the questioning is about an investigation that renault was carrying out into payments made by mr ghosn to an omani businessman

in the middle east, the head of a big nissan distributor in oman. the amount quoted by the media is 31 million dollars us and the allegation is that it came directly from mr ghosn‘s personal discretionary ceo fund. again, allegations are that somehow these payments were dubious or dodgy because some of that money may have made its way back into the hands of mr ghosn or his family. his defence team say that these are unsubstantiated allegations and they do not know anything about them. nonetheless, mr ghosn is now back in custody facing more questioning. he could be held for three weeks again under the japanese system and can be questioned every day. at the end of the process, he could face fresh charges from the japanese prosecutors office. other people here today have made

the connection between the fact that yesterday mr ghosn went on twitter to say he would hold a press conference next week to tell the truth and now 2a hours later he is back in custody. uk members of parliament have voted by a majority ofjust one in favour of obliging the prime minister, theresa may, to ask the european union for a time extension to the brexit process, rather than allow britain to leave the eu without a deal. the bill was passed by the commons in just one day. however, it would still be up to the eu to decide whether to grant any extension. earlier, mrs may met the opposition leaderjeremy corbyn for talks on brexit. caroline rigby has more. the house should find no virtue in its actions this evening. passions often run high in the house of commons but rarely this high.

surely you can make this farce stop and say there can be no third reading, no more votes. a last—ditch plea to the speaker to halt what some felt was a runaway train and a constitutional outrage. division! clear the lobby! mps were voting on whether to rush through legislation brought by backbenchers to wrest control from the prime minister. to force theresa may to seek an extension to the brexit process in order to prevent the uk from leaving without a deal on april 12. the ayes to the right, 313. the noes to the left, 312. the ayes have it, the ayes have it. unlock! they say the first rule of politics is to learn to count. never more pertinent than on wednesday in parliament. mps voted the bill through by the narrowest of margins. a majority ofjust one. given the strong feelings that there are on this issue

and the tightness of the vote i think it is important to say how welcome it was that this has been a considered and forceful debate throughout. the bill will now become law if it passes through the house of lords and is given royal assent, a process likely to start imminently — a prospect that fills some with anger. it is difficult to argue that you have had an extremely considered debate when you have rammed a bill through the house of commons in barely four hours. that is not a considered debate, it is a constitutional outrage. a government spokesman said that "we are disappointed mps have chosen to back this bill. the prime minister has already set out a clear process through which we can leave the eu with a deal and we have already committed to seeking a further extension". theresa may has now lost yet another vote.

not helpful when she has already had to turn to the leader of the opposition to try to find a brexit compromise. but thursday is a new day and the conservatives will resume talks to see if they can come up with a fresh plan to put to the house before an emergency eu summit on april 10. how significant is the vote and could it break this brexit deadlock? this is history in the making. that may sound dramatic and overstated but it is true because what has just happened is that mps have voted by the narrowest of margins, by one vote, to take power away from the government, away from the prime minister, over a vital stage in the brexit process. britain should have left the eu on march 29. they have a short extension agreed in order to avoid a no deal scenario, but a cross—party group of mps decided to try and wrest control from theresa may, the prime minister, and to effectively mandate her,

to tell her what to do next. this still needs to be agreed to by the house of lords, probably tomorrow. i think it is likely it will do so. what happened in parliament tonight was a lively debate of the constitutional implications and practical implications of this. in practice, what will happen next is that theresa may will be told to return to brussels and ask for an extension to article 50, in other words a further delay to brexit. she will come back and suggest a date but mps will have the power to change that date themselves, to ask for their own length of extension rather than leaving it up to the government. it will still be in the hands of the eu as to whether to agree to that but certainly from the british side of things, from westminster, there is now a feeling amongst mps

by the narrowest of margins to ask for that extension and they may want to ask for a longer extension to give enough time to put an alternative to theresa may's deal in place. let's get some of the day's other news. aus a us congressional committee has approved legal measures to attain the entire mueller report into russian election interference. it comes amid intensifying pressure from the democrats to release the document without any reductions. last month, the mueller report said there was no collusion between the trump campaign and russia but there was no ruling on whether the president obstructed justice. the former us vice presidentjoe biden has promised to be more mindful about his physical contact with women. he has faced accusations of unwelcome touching from four women in recent days. joe biden is expected to launch a bid for next year ‘s presidential election. two us at dresses are among 15 pa rents two us at dresses are among 15 parents who have appeared in the us court of accused of participating in a college admission scam. felicity

huffman and lori loughlin who starred in the sitcom full house are both accused of paying bribes to help their children get into top universities. prosecutors say the couege universities. prosecutors say the college admission scandal was the largest of its kind in us history. and new research suggests that poor diet is responsible for one in five premature deaths worldwide. global burden of disease study found that diets high in salt shortened the most lives, followed by ones lacking healthier foods such as fruit, vegetables, whole grains and nuts. mediterranean countries and japan had the best diets while uzbekistan was at the bottom. authorities in ethiopia are preparing to deliver their first report into the crash of ethiopian airlines flight 302 last month. all 157 people on board were killed — and boeing 737 max planes around the world have been grounded. attention has focused

on the jet‘s anti—stall system. the bbc‘s africa business editor, larry madowo, has more on what the upcoming report is likely to say. this investigation into the crash has been leaking like a sieve and a series of reports in the wwj, the new york times and the guardian talking about some of the results expected and what they are likely to say. many people expect it will paint a picture of a failure of the mcas anti—stall system, the system that is supposed to avoid a stall by pushing the nose downwards if it loses lift and to avoid, basically, the plane crashing — yet it does the opposite. all the leaks so far have suggested that in this analysis of the crash three weeks ago that the mcas system was activated.

one report from the wsj, the most recent one, says that the pilots tried to turn it off but it came back on again and the guardian reported a short while ago that it may have been reactivated several times. we expect to see authorities say that the pilots were well trained and this system, somehow, was to blame for the crash. this is all speculation. but all speculation points to that. the commonwealth nation of brunei in south—east asia has introduced strict islamic rules making adultery and sex between men punishable by stoning to death. the new measures have provoked international condemnation. a number of celebrities, including george clooney and sir eltonjohn, have called for a boycott of hotels connected to the sultan of brunei — the country's leader. caroline hawley reports. he is one of the richest people on the planet, the longest serving monarch after the queen. now, the sultan of brunei is in the spotlight with an international outcry over

harsh new sharia laws. they came into effect today, despite appeals from the un, human rights groups and governments, including the uk. this is shocking news. these are extremely cruel and inhumane punishments that have been brought in. bringing in something like death by stoning for things that shouldn't even be crimes, such as gay sex, such as adultery, amputation for robbery. these are really horrendous. and it's going completely in the wrong direction. it's on the wrong side of history. brunei's oil wealth has brought it investments around the world, including a string of luxury hotels — like here in london, the dorchester. some celebrities are now calling for a boycott. among them are ellen degeneres, eltonjohn and george clooney. soon as i reach the country, as soon as i step foot in the country, i am liable be killed by stoning. shahiran shahrani, currently seeking asylum in canada, is worried about friends back home. i hope they are making plans to get out. because i don't think it's a safe country,

and i hope they can do what i did and escape. it seems the sultan is trying to boost his popularity with religious conservatives as the economy of his tiny kingdom weakens. whether or not the brutal penalties are actually enforced, the new legislation, for those that could fall foul of it, has created an atmosphere of terror. caroline hawley, bbc news. stay with us here on bbc news. still to come, a magic to combat climate change or an to come, a magic to combat climate change 01’ an excuse to come, a magic to combat climate change or an excuse to burn more fossil fuels? change or an excuse to burn more fossilfuels? new change or an excuse to burn more fossil fuels? new carbon capture technology sparks controversy. the accident that happened here was of the sort that can at worst produce a meltdown. in this case the precautions worked, but they didn't work quite well enough to prevent some old fears about the safety features of these

because of the groups that are involved in conflict, in countries around it, for example iraq and syria. as a result, it says it needs this kind of system that can destroy ballistic and cruise missiles. however, america is concerned because they believe it can also target f 35 fighter jets. that's their stealth fighter jets and it's something america has become increasingly concerned about. as a result, it is saying to turkey, reconsider this now. it's pointing out that there are other anti—missile systems that are available but it's not just persuasion, it is also a great deal of pressure, they are really having this old—fashioned tactic of trying to put the arm behind their back on this and saying, if you go ahead with this, we will not give you access to the f35 fighter jet itself, either. it has already stopped some equipment from going to turkey this week to try and show that it means business on this. where does this put

turkey—us relations? it's been a tricky year hasn't it? i don't think that is going to change in the short—term. it's worth mentioning, of course, that it is the 70th anniversary celebration of nato that is taking place at the moment in washington. away from the main stage and away from the main agenda where these countries are together, and they are very much talking about what a success the alliance has been. we have these two nato partners who are really talking very tough with each other, you heard mike pence, the vice president of the us, making very clear that as far as he is concerned, that it is a case of making your choices here. you choose to have the missile system or you choose to be a friend of america. well, turkey is talking similar kind of language, saying it's up to america to make that choice, that it simply wants to do what it can to defend its own country. however, at the same time we are getting an indication from the turkish foreign miniser,

that there is a desire to sit down to talk about this. they recognise that the system is not going to be connected to other nato systems. they want to sit down and have a conversation about how they can make this work, but at the same time it doesn't seem at this stage that america was to compromise, although actually those nato chiefs that have been in washington today have been suggesting that there is potentially the room for compromise if they can get around a table. the minister of defence has launched an investigation using a poster of jeremy corbyn as target practice. the labour party leader said he was shocked at the footage. this is the video that has caused offence right across the political divide, and huge embarrassment to the british army. four soldiers firing their pistols at an indoor range in kabul. they are using training ammunition.

normal drills, at least until the camera pans around. they are using a giant photo ofjeremy corbyn as the target. the labour leader's face now splattered with paint. the video shows totally unacceptable behaviour and a serious error of judgment that falls far below the behaviour we expect of our soldiers in the brigade. those involved are soldiers of the 3rd battalion, the parachute regiment, based here in colchester. over the past few months, they've been providing security in kabul. known as guardian angels, theirjob is to protect international advisers. but this video will only damage the reputation of an army that is meant to stay out of politics. jonathan beale, bbc news. as experts try to figure out how

to slow down climate change, theirfocus is on reducing the amount of carbon dioxide in the air. co2 is a green house gas which contributes to our rising temperatures, and it's produced by human activity — like burning fossil fuels. now a canadian company is capturing carbon from the air and making it into fuel. our environment correspondent matt mcgrath reports from vancouver. oil tankers slipping in and out of a busy vancouver harbour, taking fuel to an energy hungry world. the oil is powering a growing number of cars and suvs on roads from canada to china. this boom though, has helped drive carbon emissions to record levels. there's so much co2 in the atmosphere that researchers say we need ways of removing it from the skies. this company in british columbia are developing a technology that can do this in a cost—effective way. each of our plants does the work of about 1k million trees in reducing co2 from the atmosphere. you can imagine building our plants in multiple different countries

around the world will make a major difference in reducing c02. this is the sound of carbon dioxide being captured at the site. carbon engineering's novel method not only removes the gas but it also generates a very valuable product. so how does this potentially world changing process actually work? well first, large amounts of air are sucked in and the damaging carbon dioxide molecules are extracted. the co2 gas is then subject to a complex chemical operation. green electricity is used to separate hydrogen from water and when it's mixed with c02 it produces a synthetic crude oil. and this is that liquid fuel that the scientists here say it can be used in cars, trucks or aeroplanes without modification. major oil and coal companies are now putting around $60 million into carbon engineering. modern day climate campaigners are very sceptical about the involvement of oil companies and technology

to remove co2 from the atmosphere. they argue it is the wrong approach at the wrong time. there is no question that this is a false hope. we can't afford it. we cannot allow the oil and gas industry to expand at this moment in history because we already have enough oil and gas under production on the planet to take us past a safe climate. scientist say that time is too short for emission cuts alone to make a difference in slowing dangerous climate change. machines that suck out co2 are urgently needed, they say. but the only ones willing and able to pay for this technology, are the fossil fuel companies who have done the most to create the problem. and the world may have no choice but to take their cash. a clean—up operation to recover containers blown from a ship off the coast of the netherlands has revealed the remains of a 500

year old trading vessel. it's believed to be the oldest of its kind in dutch history and experts are calling it the missing link in 16th century ship construction. kathryn armstrong reports. searching the depths of the north sea, salvage experts on an unexpected mission discovering remains of the 16th century trading ship. the discovery was made by accident during a search from containers that are blown from a cargo ship off the dutch coast injanuary. the solar images looked exactly like this one, so we thought we had found containers again. however, closer inspection revealed what it actually found was a priceless piece of maritime history. the boards on the outside of the ship were put side to side, not like roof tiles overlapping, they formed a smooth skin and this is the oldest

example we know of. the ship was owned by one of europe's richest banking families and is thought to have been travelling to antwerp when it sunk. on board was an estimated five tons of copper. copper was the aluminium & the steel of those days. the 16th century and later period, it has produced for a lot of things but it is very likely that these were used to build kettles. while most of the racket remains on the seabed for now, divers hope to visit the site over summer. prosecutors in turkey have entered the house of the former nissan sheaf where he has there been arrested amid fresh allegations. he is released on $9 million bail last month following earlier indictments for financial wrongdoing.

month following earlier indictments forfinancial wrongdoing. you're watching bbc news. hello there. it's been quite a turbulent start to the month of april, let's look back at wednesday's weather. under an area of low pressure we hade clouds spiralling across the british isles, gale force gusts of wind in the far north. now for some, it brought a classic april day. sunny spells and scattered showers, not feeling too bad in the sunshine. some of the showers quite heavy with some hail but for others, this is what we were greeted with first thing in the morning. some lying snow, several centimetres in places across parts of scotland and north east england. it does look as though there is a potentialforfurther snow over the next few hours but in a slightly different area. it's worth bearing in mind that they could be a little bit of disruption on minor roads. that area of low pressure

is slipping its way south—west and that is where we're likely to see the most unsettled weather over the next few hours. any snow is likely to be to higher ground across wales but it's worth bearing in mind we could see some slushy deposits at lower levels and maybe for a time into the west midlands as well. circulating around that low is a band of showers, it'll be a pretty miserable early morning rush hour. elsewhere, some clearer skies and sunshine coming through. the rain in scotland slowly edging its way westwards as we go through the day. so into the afternoon, the best of the sunshine looks likely to be the further east you are, underneath that area of lower pressure, we still see the bands of showery rain circulating around that low. by friday, the low starts to lose its grip a little, it sinks a bit. further south and west, weakened slightly. the wind starts to come in from south—westerly, a slightly milder source and that will be a noticeable change across the country.

it means the showers are likely to be fewer and far between in comparison to what we have seen. there is a potential on friday starting off with some showers but they will fade away, perhaps northern ireland seeing the heaviest into the afternoon. sunny spells coming through and it will feel a degree or so milder. back into double digits, 10—13 degrees the high. that looks likely to be the scene as we move into the weekend. that south—easterly the flow will continue to drag in milder air from the near continent. the only issue with that is it could bring a little bit more in the way of cloud and moisture. it could be quite a murky weekend. that's worth bearing in mind but in comparison to what we have seen this week, is not going to be anywhere near as cold. take care.
