this is the w.'s lie from berlin point of no return spain plunges deeper into its biggest political crisis in decades the country's top court suspends a cattle and parliamentary session to block separatists from unilaterally declaring independence also coming up. investigators reveal new details after the

worst mass shooting and modern u.s. history they say the las vegas shooter likely intended to escape and may have had help with this plot. and this year's nobel prize in literature goes to groups who are sure judges praised the originality and emotional depth of the british author's work including his best known novel the remains of the day. so good to have you with us catalonia for independence has hit a deadlock spain's highest court now says it is banning a parliamentary session in catalonia set for monday catalan lawmakers who are expected to use the session to declare independence from spain madrid maintains that the region has no legal basis. that would allow it to break away but camelot

officials say they still plan to apply the results of last sunday's disputed referendum claiming some ninety percent of cattle and loaded for independence critics say only forty percent of the population voted. not everyone in catalonia once independence these demonstrators in the region's capital barcelona are against the independence process which the spanish government also rejects is illegal. criticism of the movement following sunday's referendum has also come from spain's king philippe in a television address to the nation the king accused separatists of being disloyal a charge which catalonia as leaders dismiss. the king's speech was an endorsement of the policies of prime minister roy policies that are catastrophic for catalonia . madrid has appealed to catalonia as leader to respect spain and its institutions

. mr puts demands message is a journey to nowhere because there is no democracy outside the law there is no clear existence there are no rights outside the law for a long time is to put demand has been living outside the law outside reality and outside sanity. catalonia is leaders are planning to make a formal declaration of independence on monday in barcelona people say they just want the politicians to strike a deal. i'm very well aware of the problem we are facing and the solution must be found this is like a divorce there's no coming back you cannot divorce today and get married to morrow . the situation is very tense we've reached the stage where the spanish and catalan governments need to ease tensions they need to talk and international mediation will be perfect. only care about their seats they only care

about their salaries which we pay with our taxes i'm watching a train crash a confrontation and i don't like it. for now the deadlock continues the spanish government has rejected an offer from the separatists of fresh talks but the catalan leaders insist their independence will become a reality. where we can take an hour or two or barcelona to do that we use and so even he was standing by anna sophia this is looking really bad is there any way out of this confrontation and his sentence being discussed where you are that would allow the two sides to back down possibly save face without going over the cliff. well it is indeed a very complicated situation and one saw it would have to back down as you just said but right now there are no indications that this is going to happen in fact

catalonia the catalonian president bush at the moment he has already made some very careful office concerning negotiations with madrid but madrid has made very clear that there won't be any negotiations until the catalonian government gives up their plans for independence so what happens next now and a selfie with the both sides digging in. well what happens next is first of all one thing happened today actually which is that the constitutional court in madrid has decided to suspend the catalonian government session that was actually planned for monday where they wanted to evaluate the referendum results and probably declare independence so this session is not forbidden that doesn't mean that they do not declare independence over all. so what could happen still even though the session is now for bijan that they still

declare independence and that than madrid which trigger an article of the constitution that would basically end the autonomy's autonomous status that catalonia has within spain or so we're heading into an even more dramatic showdown in a couple of days now some high level officials fear that things could go over the cliff spiral out of control or people where you are worried that that could happen. they are worried not so much is my personal impression that them might break out civil war or something like that but they are very concerned very frightened about what might happen especially in the socially because the society here is very divided people have the feeling from both sides have the feeling that they can't really speak out and say that opinion freely because they have

a site might attack them and the other thing is that many people ah have. economical fears that the economy here might go down so there are loads of fears here all right anna sophia see been reporting from barcelona thank you investigators in the las vegas massacre suspect the suspect excuse me the gunman steven patrick may have had assistance or possibly plan to escape there are still no concrete clues about the motivation behind the worst mass shooting in modern u.s. history the shooter's girlfriend said she has no idea what prompted patrick to go on a shooting spree with key questions still open in the case investigative reporting over the evidence. police say the last vegas shooter steven private rented a room at this downtown hotel the during a music festival last month called life is beautiful it's not clear why he made the

booking reasons there ran through paris mind is oh no but it was directly during the same time his wife if you. we have very soon recovered. evidence from that location we don't know if it is evidence but we have recovered items. video it was from another hotel the mandalay bay that patrick fired the shots which killed at least fifty nine people attending a country music festival route ninety one and injured nearly five hundred investigators have recovered a note and several surveillance cameras from the scene they now believe the shooter intended to escape after the massacre and did not initially planned to kill himself police also hope this woman marilou danley will be the key to unlocking the motive behind sunday's tragedy in a statement patrick's girlfriend denied any knowledge of his sinister plans he never said anything to me or took any action that i was aware of

that i understood in any way to be a warning that something horrible like this was going to happen. investigators say the shooter led a double life that he spent decades acquiring weapons and ammunition they described him as disturbed and dangerous. near the scene of the worst mass shooting in modern u.s. history those caught up in the aftermath a still left asking how could it have come to this. we want to bring up to speed now with some of the other stories making news around the world. a suicide bombing in southern pakistan has killed at least twelve people and injured dozens the blast went off at a shrine in the john magee sea district of buddhist on province while a local official says one of the dead was a policeman who tried to stop the bombers from entering. russia has been

force the decision to honor issue grew marks a return to a more conventional recipient last year the committee stunned the world by awarding the prize to american singer songwriter bob dylan. and so glad to have with me here my colleague bill c. smart to talk a little bit more about this so why do you think that the academy picked him of this year talk us through some of his literature literature achievements is a wonderful writer and as a young woman i was very very keen on two of his books remains of the day and view of him so they are deep inside me i think it's a wonderful choice. the academy is looking for what they call a body of work that looks in an ideal direction now this recently this has been interpreted as idealistic somebody who is working for a better world and in an interview this afternoon ishiguro spoke about how not only

people not only individuals but also nations and communities tend to bury uncomfortable memories from the past and he likes to look at this now in his most famous work remains from the day and it's famous partly because of a wonderful film starring anthony hopkins and emma thompson. you have a butler who is a very repressed character he's telling the story in the novel it's his voice and you as the reader only slowly begin to understand how much he is deceiving himself that the lord he works for and tries to play so much is actually a nazi and that the housekeeper who he had feelings for the press was actually in love with him and he could have had a chance for intimacy but this is one of his worlds his two first novel is a set in japan. and being in japanese of japanese origin he's now

british is very important to him so let's listen to what he said in a press conference this afternoon are always throughout my career that. are growing up in this country and a rich kid who's gone through a large part of my way of looking at the world. more artistic approach. is japanese because i was brought up by my japanese parents speaking in japanese inside the japanese home and so. i think i've always looked at the world partly through my parents' eyes just as we all do so. so i've always had a part to be. that is japanese. were you surprised when you heard that the nobel committee awarded him a prize of literature i was very pleasantly surprised i think preparing for this and of course we don't know who the short list of five is that only revealed in

fifty years' time where we know who is on their short list he was not one of the favorites of the book makers and the literary speculation a japanese writer who came out of commie who wrote wind up bird coracle which many of us would have read margaret atwood who is back in the news because of the t.v. adaptation of had made stale a kenyan writer goofy wacky on go they were all being talked about. sync with ishiguro. it's very very well deserved and i think one of his messages a comic asked me in the office but what's his message dos that you know is that all wonderful prose but thinking about it i think his message is try to be honest with yourself and seize the day don't hold back but do what you want to do and speak openly but this is all of course between the lines and his work i got thirty seconds last year of course bob dylan a rock the boat when he was awarded the nobel peace prize is this

a sense that they're going back to the more conventional recipient this afternoon if you grow said that what dylan went to this was its greatest hero when he was asked this i think they're also looking forward ishiguro said he is moving into the world of writing comics he's going to collaborate on comics so i thing. that the nobel academy is looking beyond written literature or so into the world of music and we all benefit from a more inclusive a nobel prize thank you so very much and also greatly appreciate and then does it first we'll be back at the top of the hour with another update about how we won my day was made by you that. i was devalued towards you tube generally we're only for events in the stories. news days tournaments that you go oh it's good you tell me about it you should better check it out yourself
