that's how long it took for officers there have been clashes to enter her suspected abductor‘s between police and demonstrators in hong kong following a protest house in caracal, despite alexandra's repeated calls to the emergency services against against gang violence. to report her kidnap and to provide details of her location. well, let's stay with that story. ryan lau is a former the authorities said journalist and chief executive police initially struggled of his own creative agency. to trace the call. he is a well known personality but, having reached the property, they wasted six hours waiting in hong kong and was beaten by white for a warrant that wasn't required. shirt attackers last weekend. once inside, officers found fragments of human bones in a barrel as well as pieces of alexandra's clothing and jewellery. well, on sunday night, this man, gheorghe dinca, has been arrested on suspicion i was at home. i — actually i was at home all day. of child trafficking. and the 66—year—old was forced to be i was not participating in any present during the searches of his home. protests or demonstrations. butaround 11:00pm, i watched the live reporting from the yuen long station on my phone, and i saw people translation: we focussed today attacking innocent people, on the collection of different types innocent citizens, of criminalistic samples. with weapons, and there was no and genetic tests required in order policeman to stop. to establish whether there are bone remains belonging to different people. alexandra's abduction bears and i heard people saying the policeman is not coming

but at the same time, the thugs, they rush in. the failure to rescue a teenage girl they attacked people with metal has shone a spotlight on romania's bars and wooden stakes. so i ran, i tried to run police and prosecutors, who are now under intense pressure to get a grip on this case. jon ironmonger, bbc news. with the people there, and when i looked back, there was two men surrounded by ten you may recall from earlier this or more than ten month these four united states congresswomen holding a news conference to respond to racially thugs, beating them. charged statements made by president donald trump. representatives alexandria occasio—cortez, rashida tlaib, ilhan omar, and ayanna pressley it was very dangerous, were told by the president to go back and fix the "crime—infested and i try to go back for them. places" from which they came. well, now president trump has targetted yet another democratic representative — elijah cummings. taking to twitter, the president and at that moment, they target me, launched his attack on cummings' constituency in the eastern and they attack me with the metal us state of maryland, saying its "a disgusting, bar and stake, and then i get hurt. rat and rodent—infested mess". the president continued saying the district, which includes the majority black city of baltimore, we have seen pictures is "the worst run and most dangerous of the injuries. anywhere in the united states". 00:08:50,833 --> 2147483051:41:10,132 and that "no human being would 2147483051:41:10,132 --> 4294966103:13:29,430 want to live there". they're too graphic to show, but can you describe how bad your injuries were? well, i hurt my head.

actually, there are eight stitches on my head. the wound was, like, around 3—4 inches. and i have two stitches on my left legs and two on my right elbow, and there are many injuries on my back since i was hit by the bars and sticks. at any point during the attack, did you recognise who these people might be, or did you have a theory on who they might be? well, obviously they are local gangsters. they are local. you know, yuen long, it's — there are lots of villages there, and village gangsters was always

a problem in hong kong. but, as i remember, they never have a chance to demonstrate such violence. well, in my observation, and that night, and in my own opinion, i think the policemen empower them to do the attack. they realised that they have no consequence if they hurt any people, if they did anything which is illegal. yeah. we obviously still don't know who might have influenced these gangs, or what they were doing, but the attack must have been incredibly traumatising. how — what do you think now,

or how do you feel about the whole movement and protests that has been happening? well, as a formerjournalist, i don't make accusations easily. so, when i have to make those accusations which mean the general public, many of hong kong people, are very angry and they have the same feeling, well, i talk to many strangers on the street. they show up and express their sympathy to me. well, ten out of ten — ten of them, they ask a question. where are we going? what's next? and many of them are very emotional. they're crying in front of me. and we are really helpless, since our voice was not heard

by the government, and they start suppressing the voice of people of hong kong by violence, by threats, by illegal gangster, by those unfamiliar ways that the peaceful hong kong people who don't really believe the government will do, should do. and so i'm really worried about what will happen in hong kong, since people are angry, and the policemen, they are angry to the people, so it's in a very dangerous situation. two american teenagers have been questioned by a magistrate in italy in connection with the killing of a policeman in rome. the 35—year—old officer with the carabinieri was repeatedly stabbed early on friday after trying to arrest two people suspected of stealing a bag.

at 24.8 celsius, but of note was actually shetland. blue skies overhead, and lerwick had its warmest day in ten years. some, though, had replaced the heat, humidity, and the sunshine of recent days for cloud and rain. it was in sussex where we saw over 50 mm, two inches of rain fall. this is the weather front responsible, that weather front still with us in roughly the same areas through the day ahead. either side of it, we start with some sunshine. temperatures in single figures in the countryside in the south—west. still a humid feel, though, further north. but what we'll see on sunday is something a little bit brighter towards that far south—east corner. but much wetter in northern ireland, the risk of some minor flooding here, and we'll see some wetter conditions for the isle of man, north wales, northern midlands, and around the liverpool bay area, too. a few isolated thunderstorms could develop across scotland and the far north of england later in the day under that easterly wind, given the humidity still in place. but there'll be blue skies overhead for the far north of scotland, and here we could hit 25 degrees in the north—west highlands. still not far off that across some south—western areas,

where the sunshine will dominate. if you're stuck under the cloud, it's going to be a case of temperatures in the teens again. now, our weather front will only slowly diminish across the same sort of areas as we go through into sunday night. some still very heavy rain around the northern portion of the irish sea. clearest conditions will be across some southern counties of england and wales, and away from towns and cities we could drop down into single figures. but as we go into monday, that weather front is still there, still starting to lose a bit of its oomph in the north. but it'll produce lots of cloud, some low cloud at that, particularly through some eastern coasts. notice, though, what's gathering towards the south—west. it will take until later in the day before that moves in properly. so that does mean across much of wales, the midlands, southern england, lots of sunshine to begin monday, a bit of cloud bubbling up, but a very pleasant day all in all, with temperatures in the low to mid—20s. still a fair bit of cloud further north. some sunshine breaking through, but not not quite as damp in the afternoon as it will have been in the morning. best of the sunshine in the north of scotland. but, as we go through monday night into tuesday, this area of low

pressure starts to push its way into the south—west. if you're out camping this will be of note, because it could not only bring not some widespread thunderstorms, wales, the south—west, which will spread towards the midlands and other parts of central southern england later, but strong and gusty winds which could top gale—force later in the day as well. some of the driest, brightest weather will be the further north you are. still some low cloud across scotland, but temperatures widely into the 20s even with that. and we will see temperatures still in the mid—20s where you get sunshine through this coming week, but thundery showers are likely to become that bit more widespread. bye for now.
