6:10 pm
here's our science editor, rebecca morelle. thanks, sophie. this is the most powerful earthquake to have hit this region in almost a century. so what do we know about it? the epicentre was here in the south of turkey, close to the city of gaziantep near the syrian border — in one of the world's most seismically active regions. the reason for that is turkey sits where three tectonic plates come together. the arabian plate is constantly pushing into the eurasian plate. and this squeezes this one — the anatolian plate to the west, it's moving about 2cm every year. where the plates grind past each other, fault lines are created. the north anatolian fault has seen some major earthquakes over the last century. but the east anatolian fault — where this earthquake struck — has been less active. so tension has
6:11 pm
built up along it — until today when it was released in this huge earthquake. this is magnitude seven, nearly magnitude eight. this was a big one. this is an earthquake such as we don't get more than about 20 odd every year somewhere in the world, so this was big, and it was also quite shallow. if the rupture is closer to the surface, you get greater shaking of the ground surface than an earthquake of the same energy that happens at a greater depth. so it is a particularly nasty one. this region's all too familiar with these natural disasters. one of the most destructive happened in 1999, in the east of turkey. the magnitude 7.6 earthquake caused monumental damage, and around 18,000 deaths. but this earthquake is even more powerful. the full scale of the devastation is yet to be determined, but many buildings have been reduced to piles of rubble. turkey does have seismic codes for their buildings, strict codes because of being such an earthquake prone country. the problem is, i mean, old buildings weren't designed with those.
6:12 pm
newer buildings, sometimes there might be corners cut in some occasions. sometimes it is just the ground responds in a different way. more earthquakes triggered by the first are now the main concern. this shows the dozens that have been recorded along the faultline. here's the first earthquake — measuring magnitude 7.8. an aftershock, just ten minutes later, was recorded at 6.7. several hours later, this one to the north measured a huge 7.5, almost as powerful as the first. this is making a desperate situation even more challenging. sophie. anna foster is live in turkey. she's reached the city of 0smaniye.

innes was also found guilty of sexually assaulting the toddler and of raping another child. a warning, there is some flash photography and some of the details in this report by our scotland correspondent, lorna gordon, are distressing. hello, good morning! bennylyn burke — a young mother, who herfamily said had left the philippines to seek a better future in a country far away. but she and her two—year—old daughterjellica were killed in a cold, callous, horrific attack. you murdered an innocent woman and her two—year—old daughter in a situation where they had trusted you. these are amongst the very worst crimes which have come before the high court ofjusticiary. the consequences of what you did are devastating for ms burke's extended family. their murder was andrew innes. —— their murderer was andrew innes. he met bennylyn first on a dating website, then in person. police said he was registered on dozens of sites gathering information on women and whether they had children.

just weeks after making contact, he picked the 25—year—old up from bristol, where she lived, and drove her and her daughter to his home in dundee. bennylyn's sister, who travelled to scotland for the trial, told us she'd been frantic when bennylyn disappeared and had messaged innes to ask where she was. translation: i really felt that there was already - something wrong, so i begged him to show a video with bennylyn on the _ video so that i could see if it's really 0k and that she's fine and she's with him. but bennylyn and her daughter had already been murdered. police found the bodies buried under innes's kitchen floor. he claimed in court he'd been temporarily insane and had killed bennylyn because she resembled his estranged wife. he then killed jellica, who he claimed said had wanted to be with her mum. in a closed courtroom, thejury also heard a harrowing video statement from a young child innes raped. the schoolgirl told of seeing innes hit bennylyn burke over

" in almost 30 years of policing, the level of gravity —— in almost 30 years of policing, the level of depravity shown by andrew innes is way beyond anything myself or my colleagues have witnessed before. not only did he callously take the life of a young mother and innocent child, he then sought to escape justice by burying their bodies beneath his kitchen floor. innes will serve a minimum of 36 years injailfor his crimes. bennylyn's family said they would forever be haunted by what had happened to her and her daughter. lorna gordon, bbc news, at the high court in edinburgh. in football, mancheter city may be flying high on the pitch — they're currently second in the premier league — but off the pitch they're in some trouble. after a four—year investigation, the premier league has charged the club with more than 100 breaches of its financial rules. the rules are there essentially to ensure no club spends

roberto mancini, the premier league also alleged that manchester city built to comply fully with their four year long investigation. this could be one of the gravest scandals in the history of the sport. manchester city say they are surprised by these charges, they say they have irrefutable evidence that supports their position. they have always denied wrongdoing, they say they look forward to an independent commission where they can put this behind them. three years ago, they were kicked out of the champions league by uefa for allegedly breaching financial fair play rules. their lawyers successfully had that overturned, they are confident of a repeat this time around. but it is very serious because the sanctions available to that commission include points deductions, suspension, even being kicked out of the league entirely. their attempt to retain the title is faltering, they lost at the title is faltering, they lost at the weekend, but this legal battle could be a much fight ahead. at the other end of the premier league table — the manager of leeds united has been sacked, after less than a year
