ent to conduct a transparent investigation into the murder the haguest profile assassination during the tenure of president putin. the chances of such a change happening, however, seem unlikely at best. new details on the suspect behind the brazen knife attack on an american ambassador. and damage control in ferguson, missouri. officials announced changes after a damning federal report. australia's last-minute pro-posal to save two citizens from a firing squad in indonesia. >> we want to welcome our viewers. i'm zain asher. >> and i'm john vause. this is cnn newsroom. we begin in south korea where police have arrested the man accused of attacking the u.s. ambassador with a knife.
10:01 pm
>> it happened in seoul, just as lippert was set to deliver a speech. his face was cut, but his injuries are not considered life threatening. he just got out of surgery in the past hour. he needed 80 stitches on his cheek alone. state media say the suspect was angry about joint u.s.-south korean military exercises. >> paula hancocks joins us live now. what more do we know about the ambassador's condition? >> reporter: we've had a briefing not long ago from the doctors who carried out these operations. they say that he has a gash which is 11 centimeters long from his right cheekbone to his lawer jaw and three centimeters deep. they say if it had been any deeper it could have cut a key artery and could have been fatal. but they say the surgery was very successful.
10:02 pm
they say that he's now resting in a hospital ward. he could be in hospital for three to four days. according to the doctors, they say that the ambassador was very calm throughout saying that his companions and colleagues around him were in shock, but the ambassador was very calm. so that's the latest on his condition. >> we're also learning more about the suspect that is behind this attack. apparently he was known to police. he carried out a similar attack on a japanese diplomat in 2010. >> that's right. we know that this man kim had tried to throw a slab of concrete at the japanese ambassador to south korea back in 2010. the news agency reporting he had a two-year suspended prison sentence on that okayizationccasion. he had a blog online protesting
10:03 pm
against the joint u.s.-south korean military drills starting on monday. we know as he was taken to hospital on stretcher, he was injured as well. he was shouting saying because of those military drills that is why family reunions between the north and south are not going ahead. the question now is why was he sitting at the table right next to the u.s. ambassador at an event when he had already attacked another ambassador and he had a criminal record? so certainly many question also with asked about that. >> and kim was allegedly unhappy about these military drills. how many other south koreans feel the same way? >> reporter: it's certainly not the majority view here in south korea. many south koreans are either happy that the u.s. military are here or they're fairly ambivalent that the u.s. military is here. it's not something new or they have to deal with daily.
10:04 pm
and certainly many south koreans would see it as a deterrent to north korea and see it as a form of extra protection from north korea. remember, this is a country that's still technically at war with its northern neighbor. it's a minority that's not happy about these military drills. of course north korea has made it clear that they're not happy about them. they see them as a dress rehearsal for an invasion which washington and seoul have denied saying they are defensive in nature. >> paula, just repeating, 80 stitches for the ambassador the gash on his cheek was about four inches long three centimeters deep. thank you, paula. we want to go to missouri now where a police employee in ferguson is out of a job after the u.s. justice department found racial discrimination in the police department. we know that two others are suspended but a source close to
10:05 pm
the investigation is telling cnn hey also will likely lose their jobs as well. the department says it has hired three african-american females for various positions since august. they say they're trying to make an effort and it will also have as officers attend diversity training as well. the department simply must do better says the mayor. listen. >> these actions taken by the individuals are in no way representative of the employees of the city of ferguson. but today's report allows the city of ferguson to identify the problems not only in our police department but in the entire st. louis region. we must do better, not only as a city but as a state and country. we must all work to address issues of racial disparity in all aspects of society. >> among the items listed in the report are racially charged e-mails, some of which were dis disparageing about the u.s. president and the first lady.
10:06 pm
>> reporter: months after violent protests in ferguson a new justice department report is exposing the ugly and pervasive culture of racial bias that ignited the unrest. >> our view of the evidence found no -- no alternative explanation for the disproportionate impact on african-american residents other than implicit and explicit racial bias. >> reporter: the justice department's more than 100 page report reveals a pattern of practice of discrimination against african-americans by ferguson police and municipal court employees. it's filled with specific cases, and shocking racially offensive e-mails, targeting the president and first lady. one e-mail depicts the president is a chimpanzee. another includes a photo of bare chested women dancing in what appears to be africa with the caption, michelle obama's high school reunion. community leaders in ferguson
10:07 pm
are outrainged. >> if they would say that about the president of the united states what do you think they would say about poor black men and women living in a racialized area of the city? >> reporter: the report shows that african-americans in ferguson faced that kind of discrimination day in and day out. in one example, an african-american man was pulled out of his apartment after an argument. when he told police they didn't have a reason to lock him up the police officer used the n word and said i can find a reason to lock you up. darren wilson was cleared of any civil rights violations in the shooting death of michael brown, however. >> the facts do not support the filing of criminal charges against officer darren wilson in this case. >> reporter: tonight, michael brown's parents are disappointed but say they are encouraged the doj will hold the ferguson police department accountable
10:08 pm
for the profiling they found in their handling of interactions with people of color. ed lavandera cnn, ferguson, missouri. >> as a black woman myself i was extremely offended by some of those racist e-mails. >> i can imagine. i think most people were offended regardless. >> it was just horrific what they were saying. this winter has been unrelenting in the united states. and guess what? another storm is on the way. it just never seems to end. this one could bring a bit of everything depending on where you live. we are talking heavy snow ice, rain and maybe some flooding as well. >> everything that isn't good. the front is moving slowly. it will extend some 2,000 miles and 90 million americans are under a weather, warning, watch, advisory. eric vandam -- derek vandam. >> nice to meet you, john. >> i'm going to washington, d.c. tomorrow. >> you might want to
10:09 pm
double-check your flight. this will be impacting people all along the east coast. we have three cities with the potential of breaking the snowiest storm for the winter season. >> you sound like a broken record. >> let's take a look at the graphics. the nation's capital, washington, d.c. louisville kentucky and philadelphia all have the potential to break their snowiest one-term snowfall event out of this particular storm. also something interesting to note just a matter of 300 miles, we have a separation of 50 degrees fahrenheit. that just gives you an indication how strong this particular cold front is separating the warm air mass to the south and the cool air to the north. this is the state of mississippi. we have over 5,000 flights canceled or delayed, so zain and everybody watching you'll want
10:10 pm
to double-check your flights to the east coast, including the major cities new york city to washington, d.c. here it is. you don't need to be a meteorologist to see where that cold front is located. you can see the separation of our precipitation. cold air funneling in some of this and changing it over to snowfall and a mixture of sleet and ice across the mid-atlantic states and the warm air to the south keeping that in the liquid variety. let's talk about how many people are impacted by the storm. 90 million as john mentioned. the scene is set, the warm is in place, it's just taking this cool air to create the sheet of ice, up to half an inch for some places in tennessee, even into kentucky as well as the east coast. we'll watch out for all kinds of variable weather, and this storm is looking impressive. 90 million people under some
10:11 pm
sort of weather advisory dumping upwards of a foot of snow in some places across kentucky and upwards of six inches into the big apple. >> with you not here. >> but not in atlanta. >> basically i'm not going anywhere tomorrow. >> that's right. washington, d.c. dulles international, you need to watch out. >> pack a back. >> thanks derek. we'll take a short break. when we come back a shocking attack which made india change its rape laws. we'll talk about the government's decision to ban a documentary. stay with us.

10:14 pm
welcome back everyone. there's renewed controversy in india about a rape. the government has banned the broadcast of a documentary on the case saying it could incite violence against women. >> it's called "india's daughter" and featured an interview with one of the men convicted in the case. the director describes the conversation with the man. >> no regret for one second out of 16 hours. no regret. in fact the opposite. his attitude is why are they making a fuss about us?
10:15 pm
everybody is doing it. i got an insight and an understanding into the way he views women. and that is what is extremely shocking. not what he did, but what he thinks that led him to do what he did, and it's not just he who thinks that, it's a societal problem. >> so it is absolutely shocking that these men had no regret. they feel certainly justified in their decision to rape this woman. i know the government of india has banned this documentary. what are they trying to hide? why are they banning this film? >> they're banning this film because they are worried that when people in india listen to what the rapist had to say, that it would create a "law and order" situation. they are worried about the
10:16 pm
outrage it would create. as you heard from the filmmaker there, one of the rapists did make some very controversial remarks. the film has been banned here. we are not allowed to directly quote from any part of the film but what he said he expressed basically no remorse whatsoever for his actions and he implied that the girl should not have resisted rape and by resisting rape she actually triggered more beatings that if she stayed silent she would have spared herself for the beatings on behalf of the rapists. he also goes on to talk about the death penalty, which india introduced after this rape case and introduced the death penalty for rapists. and he says that's only going to make the situation worse for women in india, because early if a rapist raped a girl they would just love her, thinking she's not going to tell anybody about what happened. there was such a stigma attached
10:17 pm
to rape. but now fearing she will report the case and she will tell people about what happened they say it's going to be better off just to kill the girl. and he also goes on to talk about how girls should remain at home. that's the place for them. they have no business out at night, going to places like bars and nightclubs. so these are the comments he makes in the movie, and the government is worried that by letting indians hear these kind of comments it will create a huge sense of outrage and create a public law and order situation. >> a lot of people found his comments absolutely disgusting. i watched the interview myself especially the description of what that poor girl went through. just tell me this what is the filmmaker doing specifically to make sure that film is shown in india? >> she is appealing to the government to watch the film.
10:18 pm
she made a direct appeal saying please watch the film before you decide decide. she said it's very important to have this film aired in india, that the film is just a mirror of what's happening in indian society. so there's no point shooting the messengers. that's what she said. the film is just taking the message to the public. she said instead of shooting the messenger, the point is to confront the real issues which are affecting indian society. so she is appealing to the government to air the film to then let people decide whether they want to watch it or not. and to do that she's telling the government telling the prime minister first of all, watch the film then decide whether there's anything offensive in it or not. >> there's a report that says a woman is raped in india every 20
10:19 pm
minutes. one thing is for sure something has to change. thank you. john? the government ban on india's daughter is being criticized by india's newspapers. if the goal is preventing rapes, it can't be done by pushing testimony into the shadows. the indian express calls the government's response misdirected writing, conviction rates for rape have fallen from 44% in 1973 to 24% in 2012. >> we want to go now to another story. u.s. law enforcement officials say they have charged a virginia teenager with recruiting for isis. his name has not been disclosed but school officials tell cnn the 17-year-old is involved in this high school you see here. but currently not attending
10:20 pm
classes. the teen is accused of helping a man travel to syria to fight for isis. one law enforcement official says the boy has been charged as a juvenile but prosecutors are seeking to charge him as an adult. john? >> the identity of the isis executioner known as jihadi john is now being called into question, and the man making the challenge is threatening legal action as well. nic robertson has the details. >> reporter: a man who says he's muhammad emwazi's father who has talked to the newspaper in kuwait he has told the newspaper that he's seen no evidence in the media, no videos in the media that tell him the man who is called jihadi john is in fact his son. and a lawyer representing him is saying essentially the same thing. he's saying there's no evidence that has been put forward by local intelligence officials, perhaps meaning kuwaiti
10:21 pm
intelligence officials or international intelligence officials, that show mohammed emwazi is in fact jihadi john. the lawyer has been hired by the father. he says because he feels that he has been unfairly libelled in this situation, and warns that any media organizations that continue to make this case that mohammed emwazi is in fact jihadi john they say legal proceedings will begin against them. so the man who says he's the father living in kuwait at the moment is making a very strong and very clear denial of any links between mohammed and jihadi john. also denying what has been said in some other british newspapers about mohammed emwazi. nic robertson, cnn, london.

destruction, his defense team told jurors a different story. >> that story is one where the impressionable teen was turned into a killer at the hands of his brother, who say he masterminded the entire plot. chris welsch has more on day one of the testimony. >> reporter: victims and family members exit the courthouse following the first day of the boston marathon bombing trial. during opening statements the prosecution and defense laid out their strategies for the jury. both sides agreeing dzhokhar tsarnaev help carried out the attack at the finish line of the boston marathon. in fact his own defense attorney going as far as saying it was him who took part in the bombing. but his team says the real question is why he did it saying he was heavily influenced by his brother. prosecutors made an emotional appeal to the jury laying out the events of almost two years ago in sometimes graphic detail.
10:26 pm
painting dzhokhar tsarnaev has a terrorist, whose goal was to kilt kill as many people as possible. the motive for the attack can be found in the boat. there, he allegedly wrote messages explaining that he believed the u.s. government is an enemy of islam. now 12 juror also have to decide whether he's guilty of the 30 federal counts he's charged with. more than a dozen of which carry the death penalty. i'm chris welsch reporting. >> prosecutors played never before seen video of the aftermath of the attack of the jury. some of the images here are difficult to watch. you can see employees turning clothing into tourniquets to help the victims and then here are the wounded being treated on a blood soaked street. four people were killed in the
10:27 pm
bombings. another 216 were wounded in the attack. the u.s. supreme court is hearing arguments in another challenge to president obama's signature health care law. the justice also decide whether the obamacare federal subsidies in 34 states are legal. those states decided not to set up their own health care exchanges leaving the subsidies to come from the federal government. jeffrey toobin described the atmosphere inside the court. >> reporter: michael carvin, the lawyer for the challengers to the law stood up and he was set upon. the four democratic appointees all jumped on him, saying he was disporting the meaning of the law. but when the solicitor general depending the law got up justice scalia and justice alito
10:28 pm
set upon him. so those six votes, along with clarence thomas who was silent today, those votes seem to be set in stone. the real key to this case is chief justice roberts and justice kennedy. i think predicting those votes is a lot harder. kennedy seemed somewhat more sympathetic to the obama position and john roberts, in what was for me the biggest surprise of the day, said almost nothing at all, which is very uncharacteristic for him. >> thanks to jeffrey toobin for that. >> the supreme court is expected to announce its decision in may or june. when we come back two australians convicted of drug smuggling are waiting for word on whether they will face an indonesian firing squad. the late nest a live report. plus we'll hear from some of the targets of the u.s. raid

10:33 pm
where these executions are carried out. >> australia has repeatedly appealed for clemency but indonesia's president has made it clear he's not going to be buckling to foreign pressure. >> but in a last-ditch attempt, australia's foreign minister has raised the idea of a prisoner swap with the indonesians and asked her counterpart in jakarta in a pause for the preparations of the execution while this is considered. we're joined now live from ban dock -- bangkok. >> reporter: no word so far, as far as we are aware, john. we know that the ministry of foreign affairs has been locked in meetings all day. the attorney general in meetings as well.
10:34 pm
they're trying to get information, but what we do know is that judy bishop on tuesday night contacted her counterpart in indonesia and suggested some form of prisoner swap. this is what she had to say about that. >> what we are seeking to do is have an opportunity to talk about options that might be available in the area of prisoner transfer or swap. no details, but we are seeking an opportunity to explore every option that might be available to us every avenue that might be available to save the lives of these two men. >> reporter: and she also said several times repeatedly that these two men are prime examples of rehabilitation and reform in prison. that was also echoed throughout
10:35 pm
this conversation when she spoke to the media. a number joining the australian public for prayers and hopes of their release from execution island. the wholes very much in motion to face what will be death by firing squad. john zain? >> it does seem to be an 11th hour appeal which would be most unlikely. saima, thank you. live for us with the latest on the potential execution of those two men. thank you. those two men part of the so-called bali nine are not the first australians to face indonesia's courts on drug charges. >> reporter: australia has a history of drug convictions in
10:36 pm
indonesia, a country which hands out some of the toughest punishment in the world. the death penalty has been in effect since 1964 and while it's well known, no one in australia is prepared to see two of their nationals executed. >> the only thing -- i feel like we should be doing so much more than what the government is doing. >> reporter: other australian drug offenders have captured the attention of the nation. this 27-year-old was arrested with 4.2 kilograms of marijuana inside her boogie board bag. she claimed innocence. in 2005 indonesian judges sentenced her to 20 years in prison. after serving nine years, she was released last month and
10:37 pm
remains on parole. also in 2005 model michelle leslie was caught with a small stash of ecstasy. her lawyer argued she was addicted to prescription dedication which carries a much more lenient sentence. convicted, she was released having served three months in jail. that same year came the bali nine. a group of eight men and one woman who aintended to smuggle heroin back to australia. authorities did not stop them at the gate. arrested in indonesia, they were charged an convicted in 2005. most received between 20 years and life. the two ringleaders were sentenced to death. despite evidence the two are reformed that's been no

10:39 pm
