a boycott where nairobi. also coming up confusion in catalonia the regions leader was out snap elections a could have staved off the record by madrid a day before spanish lawmakers are due to decide on his own this president of the what will take you to barcelona for the very latest we are really grateful. for everybody who supported us legally an emotional reunion german human rights organizer peter shortener is free on bail from a turkish prison he and other activists on trial for turning related charges zain as politically motivated. and also coming up traitors in frankfurt taken by surprise the chief executive of the stock exchange operator resigns caught up in allegations of insider trading brett the trading floor.

and a royal farewell ties pay their last respects to the late king and the pawn their crimean ssion ceremony in bangkok is marked by a lavish ritual it's all part of a five day sendoff for the long reigning monarch. it's a pleasure to have you with us on leyla her rock. we begin in kenya where voting vote counting is underway after a disputed rerun of a contested presidential election the opposition urged voters to boycott the vote as a result the turnout was low even in some areas considered strongholds of president uhuru kenyatta all despite pockets of unrest the vote was largely peaceful polling that was pushed back to saturday in four counties so where clashes broke out the violence left at least three people dead and dozens wounded. police with water

cannons vs opposition supporters armed with stones they were boycotting the election in a slum area of kenya's capital nairobi polling stations in many areas failed to open because of security concerns several deaths and many injuries marred the proceedings. kenya's president or hurricane yeah to cast his vote in upbeat mood his jubilee party's election victory back in august was cancelled because of irregularities leaving kenya in the grip of its worst political crisis in a decade. and. all we're asking is that kenyans. requesting them humbly that they should turn out in large numbers. make their decision. their leader. for our country to move. the opposition leader rylan seen here before the vote urged his super alliance

supporters to boycott the proceedings. and he went further than that intimidating both election volunteers and voters to keep them away from polling stations. here and on enough to be here to. support. violence also fled in the city of kisumu casualties were ferried to hospital the governor a hard liner during the supporter accused the authorities of punishing the opposition .

had been killed. in our own saturday's remaining polling can yet is probable victory with the low turnout and the rerun is unlikely to end the violence. rather. than it is come on he is in nairobi for you it is how is the situation at the moment has come return it really depends on which party why in the country this is an election that has completely polarized kenya on the one hand you do have jubilee supporters and supporters of the government who said that today's was an election process like any other and then there are those people who are in the opposition strongholds and those are the people who have not had a very good day they've been engaged in running battles with the police the whole day as you've seen in that report and there are reports that in areas like the barrel which is a slum dweller in here in the capital but gunshots are still being heard but on the most on the most part majority of kenyans it's now nightfall in their homes glued

to their t.v. screens not really waiting for who will be declared winner but to see what happens next all right what happens next and of course this is the second time that kenyans have had to go to the polls in nearly three months with opposition supporters boycotting the selection do you think that kenya could possibly conceivably be headed for a third election if today's vote isn't considered representative. it's simply what opposition leader raila odinga said in a statement that he issued earlier this morning he said that he would be bringing together a group of people who would get a free fair and most importantly fresh elections so as far as the opposition is concerned this election process is not over in fact it never began for them but as to whether or not kenyans want to do this a third time in a span of two months i think there is general fatigue in the country nobody wants to be in an election nearing process but this is

a state we find ourselves in and the election commission has the next move and even i apologize in advance to our next my next question is a big question but i'm hoping that you can distill it for us what is at the root of this crisis i mean is this more than about this election. it certainly is and this is something that dates back to pre-colonial times but if i had to wrap it up in three key points i would say it's about power it's certainly about legacy owing to a very complicated historical relationship between the canat says. and it's also about ethnic diversity in this country there are forty tribes but only five of them represent a huge population of the country as are the people from the smaller tribes believe that so long as the president of this country is elected on a majority basis they will never get representation and of course that's a problem for them because it's believed that if your person is in power if the person from your ethnic tribe is in power then you get state resources you get the

benefits of having someone from your tribe hold the biggest seat in the country so much more at stake in kenya that's kamandi reporting from the kenyan capital nairobi thank you. while others divisions around kenya's rerun election are also playing out online a live show is social media just tracking that side of the story liz the opposition as we just heard this report calls for a voter boycott to was there a lot of support online. you know a lot throughout the day members of the opposition have been insisting online that they will not back down here for example is a very popular blogger from kenya called himself the cambodia he says as nasa supporters the main opposition coalition we are ready to go the long hug we are ready to bid time and wait other people are worried about this whole issue turn is seeing kenya's reputation abroad here for example abraham would try saying the

boycott is giving kenya a bad name it is exposing us badly it should have been avoided and in fact this activist had gone to court wanting today's vote to be canceled because the pulling out of the whole process now of course a kenya rightly so is considered a very very important country in the horn of africa so it's being swallowed closely outside of kenya as well the selection how is people react to today's events around the world. well we have a statement from the un general assembly saying that it is very concerned about reports of unrest coming out of kenya in kenya as a neighboring country uganda the opposition leader there accuse at best he posed this question on twitter he's asking what's good can come out of this kenya election if the i.p.c. which is the electoral commission is totally discredited and the main opposition

coalition which is nasa is absent the u.k. government is warning its citizens about traveling to canyons saying political tensions are high and demonstrations are expected throughout the country particularly in the western region which is an opposition stronghold you should monitor local and international media and avoid demonstrations and we saw tensions today throughout the day situations also prove difficult to those who are actually trying to help the citizens for example doctors without borders they posted these pictures as saying their ambulance today was attacked in mother this is a nairobi while they were picking up a patient and one of their staff members was harassed so that was the situation on the ground we're still monitoring it and updates can be found on the. show thank you. i want to take you now to spain where it's been a day of twists and turns after the separatist leader of that of the region of catalonia says he will not call elections the might have defuse tensions with the

spanish government over cattle out of the pendants carlos put human says it is now up to catalonia as a regional parliament to decide whether or not to hold elections while the spanish government plans to strip push him out of his powers and impose director who on catalonia thousands of separatist supporters waited outside the regional government headquarters hoping put them out would declare independence. leader the clarity of the pen and say you might recall after a referendum at the beginning of october only to then immediately suspend its implementation a lots to unpack here for you correspondent charlet chelsea is in the capital at capital a castle and the capital of barcelona charlotte no snap elections no declaration of independence the ball is back in the central government's courts in madrid. is that any does seem no way was expected is that tomorrow the senate in madrid is

going to vote on whether or not it opposes imposes article one five five what that will do is it will impose direct rule on catalonia it will also as you mentioned rid the government head of its powers temporarily and take control of the police and the media as well is quite an extreme measure all suggestions point to the fact that that is going to take place in the senate tomorrow prime minister ronnie marianna hoy's party has a majority that say in the holdout the fact that suppression one has hit it back into madrid's courts just seem to be something that is becoming somewhat of a trend for him initially he was expected as you said to declare independence then he suspended it straight off to it's today the word was that yes there was going to be a declaration of independence then he was due to give a speech he delayed it then he canceled it then the word was we're going to get

regional elections and then that didn't happen again either no decisions really on either side from them on independence is still up in the elections still up in the very unclear what is going to happen as well as you alluded to or charlotte we expected to get a major announcement from the catalan a leader we didn't how do the people in catalonia feel do they feel a letdown or do they feel relief. this has been a real emotional roller case of the people here whether the pro independence or anti it just because of all of the twists and turns that we've outlined i mean take the people who were outside on the square behind me they were hundreds of pro independence students high school students and university students there were one moment changes the next moment chauncey demands a traitor and we want independence to do the reaction from the crowd really was

dependent on what part it was more a part of the day we're on exactly what the dream is what that way was swelling around ted but i think the people who were in this square left feeling very disappointed that they didn't get the independence declaration that they were expecting and as you've been describing a charlotte it's been a very chaotic day where are you are the whole will he won't he might he. how unified is his government on which direction to take at this stage. there are huge divisions in his government at the moment his coalition is being propped up by two left wing parties that very clear on what they hope to achieve they've said that they won't accept anything less than independence in fact when it was rumored that he was going to cool elections. have been several resignations not just among those left wing parties but within his own party as well people

incredibly angry at the suggestion that independence may not happen having said that there are some within his party who are really trying to deescalate the situation and who he very much fear that madrid is going to impose article one five five they don't want to see catalonia temporarily lose its autonomy they don't want to see direct rule imposed on really will be being pulled into ways on this the parliament reflecting the population here in catalonia also very divided on whether or not they want independence in fact if it is put to a vote in parliament as is planned is still very unclear which side is going to fall on whether they they want these regional elections or not and the first off we're going to have to see what happens tomorrow hala madrid to these events and field reporting from barcelona thank you. you're watching the news there's still a lot more that we want to tell you about a german human rights activist jailed in turkey freed after three months in prison

does a surprise really mean that the rest between these two nations is on the mend. but first now to some of the other stories making news around the world. u.s. secretary of state rex tillerson has renewed calls for syrian president bashar al assad to step down his comments came after a meeting in geneva with u.n. syria and voiced tough on them in storage and the store said it un the un mediated the syrian peace talks and would resume at the end of november. an explosion and fire at a fireworks factory in indonesia has killed at least forty seven people and injured dozens more police if unifil blast happened at a warehouse complex at the factory on the outskirts of the capital jakarta it caused a roof to collapse before spreading to neighboring buildings. venezuela's former

national assembly speaker henry ramos and the country's democratic opposition have been awarded the european union sackcloth prize for human rights the european parliament said it wanted to reward the courage of politicians and students fighting for freedom in the face of the country's repressive government. german national peter start there and seven other human rights activists have been released on bail after spending three months in a turkish jail they were arrested in istanbul and then taken into custody on terror charges mr starter's case is one of many diplomatic flashpoints between turkey and germany and his release could signal a thaw in relations. wednesday night in istanbul for pain a nightmare has ended after more than one hundred days behind bars the human rights worker for amnesty international is once again a free man after his release from prison his comments on what happened made his

ordeal clear i am really grateful and i can say we are really grateful. for everybody who supported us legally. diplomatically and with solidarity and we know it's going on but we do it together. diagnose case and those of other german citizens arrested by turkey have severely strained relations between the two countries in berlin there is palpable relief over his release from prison. we were very pleased when the news came yesterday that peter storrie now was to be free to recall he was wrongly imprisoned in turkey for three months but now is the time to bear in mind that there are still german citizens being unlawfully held in prison in turkey for. you know if you had to voice your shots if it doesn't then

that this is sensational and we should encourage turkey to take more of these steps to release the other prisoners especially the journalists where the accusations were made up out of thin air this former german chancellor gerhard schroeder played a decisive role and does release a media report saying chancellor merkel knew about churches mediation efforts this was confirmed by his social democratic party colleague foreign minister. one german citizen may have survived a hard time in a turkish prison but others still behind bars are waiting to see what german diplomacy can do for them this week chancellor merkel met the wife of imprisoned german journalist an easier job a clear show of solidarity by the german government with those being held illegally in turkey's prisons. are going to delve a little bit deeper in this subject with our political correspondent kate brady

kate what stands out in the report is the role that the former chancellor gerhard schroeder played in securing the release of peter or tell us a little bit more about that what we know so far and this is being confirmed by the by the foreign ministry and by germany's foreign minister. god should a went to take a just about a week after the german elections or within the last month. where he actually then spoke to president but what everyone is asking now is at what price was the release of pitch. we don't actually know the details of this deal which has been made yet and that's something that's going to be of interest obviously in the clean weeks and what's also interesting of course is to see how this develops. of course not everyone's going to be happy that he's been involved in diplomatic work for the german government while he's of course now receiving a paycheck from vladimir putin now that he's on the barge of.

oil company he's a complex figure in all of this but of course happy days for that family start or begs the question why peter store and why not the other very prominent person in jail dennis you chel and all the other german citizens why has a new not been able to secure their release well from the information that we've had confirmed so far did actually ask for. or not and it's you and told you all to be released obviously that's certainly something that will see whether that was really the case or whether that is part of the deal that turkey has yet to fulfill that's something that will only see in the coming weeks but of course as released yesterday it's by no means and also mattick indication that a lot of the other german nationals detained in turkey will also be released i'm going to personally just thirty seconds left what does this say about bilateral

relations between berlin and which plunged to historic lows well they've still got a long long way to go the foreign ministers of my gabriela said you know it's it's a moment for a ease tensions but of course there is a long long way to go many more issues to be resolved kate great reporting on that thank you so very much. there we're going to have to business is now because the stock exchange here in germany is set to be in new hands after a fairly dramatic turn of events helena good to see a good to see you later it certainly was rather dramatic the boss of the cost and can get is stepping down by the end of the year and he's the c.e.o. of the company that operates the frankfurt stock exchange he came under fire for buying four and a half million euros worth of shares in his own company shortly before announcing that it was looking at merging with the london stock exchange news that sent shares in deutsche of buzz a surging at the time that merger well it never happened but can get to is being

investigated the company has repeatedly denied that its chief executives see anything wrong. we also correspondent in frankfurt daniel cool how can get explained his sudden departure. well there is of course this official wording worry is saying now you know i really want to make sure that daughter bertha gets out of this you know bad headlines and that you know now they can focus again on the business but pretty much he probably at the end didn't have any other choice it was just he was just under two big pressure also after we have the court in frankfurt saying this week that they don't agree on this settlement that he wanted to or arrange by a paying five hundred thousand euros and then daughter burrs another ten million euros so basically you have the option to just say i'm gonna resign by the end of

the year otherwise he would not even gotten a new contract because his contract was due in march two thousand and eighteen. i was a financial correspondent daniel in frankfurt well the european central bank has announced a gradual withdrawal from post crisis stimulus it's holding its bond purchase program from sixty billion euros a month to thirty billion euros that's from the start of next year interest rates will stay where they are though historic lows. no surprise in store for the markets despite having its massive bond buying program the european central bank is carrying on with one hundred eight if using today's monetary policy decisions were taken to preserve the very favorable for nancy conditions that are still needed for a sustained return of inflation rates to worst levels. but close to two percent. it's a balancing act inflation levels are still below the e.c.

beast two percent target rate while economic growth in the eurozone continues to be solid an ongoing dilemma the central bank has to deal with was a buying program was started to fight the threat of deflation effect we definitely don't have a risk of deflation it but we also don't have inflation that's what makes it so hard for dragging on the e.c.b. . another challenge the e.c.b. president still feels that european leaders have to do more to reform their economies to bolster long term growth and stability the implementation of structural reforms you know you are can trees needs to be substantially stepped up to increase resilience reduced structural unemployment and euro area productivity and growth potential the e.c.b. says it may continue its stimulus program beyond twenty to eighteen if necessary.

right back overseas and some incredible scenes in thailand and say that again because that country stage a lavish ceremony to bid a final public farewell to former king. on his body was cremated on thursday as part of five days of official funeral proceedings the beloved monarch died last year after seven decades on his throne and thousands of ordinary thais as well as dignitaries from around the world travel to bangkok to witness the royal sendoff. the end of a long year of sorrow hundreds of thousands of thai citizens lined the streets in bangkok to witness the third day of the elaborate five day funeral and cremation ceremony. king bumi paul was a father figure to many thais. oh. i want to stay here in this area even after the cremation because i want to hold every piece

of the ceremony in my memory everything i see and every feeling from today as much as possible from. ninety five percent of the current time population was born during the late king's reign royals and dignitaries from forty two countries arrived in bangkok to pay their respects to the king and the royal family thailand has observed a year of mourning following the passing of king put me upon last october at age eighty eight he ruled the country for seven decades and played a pivotal role in maintaining stability during years of political upheaval and rapid development. are you watching t.v. news we still have a lot more to tell you about here's what's ahead. u.s. president donald trump is getting ready to declare a public health emergency over opioid use we visit a town in the central state of ohio that's been devastated by drug addiction.

and with vote counting underway uncertainty over the past few months have already had economic fallout in that country that's the sad reality of it i'm afraid to an incredibly important nation for the african continent but nevertheless election violence in kenya has been scaring off investors weeks of protests and all the political upheaval in a nation that is deeply divided that is throwing up questions as to where the country is headed something that's not good for all types of and to prizes for multinational corporations in their expansion decisions to small business operators . in the slums of nairobi opposition supporters blocked the entrances to polling stations they took their protests to the streets although the demonstrations were deemed illegal police used tear gas to disperse the crowds the presidential election was mired by chaos the unrest has taken

a toll on motorcycle taxi driver david michaels business people are not in the mood to spend money or got the order and i know we can't earn enough money as people continue to demonstrate so it'll be difficult to take care of our families for me this is. the wave of protest has weighed heavily on the east african countries economy kenya has taken in one billion dollars less in revenue in the past four weeks because investors are staying away construction has come to a standstill and many tourists are avoiding the country many fear a bloodbath like after the elections a decade ago one thousand two hundred kenyans died in the violence. kenya's economic gains in recent years help to keep the peace many companies have a stop it operations in kenya which became the strongest east african economy last year with six percent g.d.p. growth. but the ongoing political conflict threatens to nullify the gains from all

that success. will to another country facing economic fallout in light of dramatical political events i gotta learn his president has said he will not call a regional election that could have calmed tension with spain but that hasn't quelled uncertainty in the political turmoil and unrest has prompted many companies to move their headquarters to spain's richest region but not every business wants to or can leave. a banner on the town hall of sub adele reads freedom for political prisoners this catalan city isn't just the stronghold of the region's independence movement but also its industrial heartland due to the city's wealth spain's fourth largest bank was founded here. even though the bank has now turned its back on the region most mid-size companies are staying in catalonia. take this supermarket chain for instance right in the middle of the political crisis its

management announced it would be making two hundred million euros in investment opening nearly thirty new stores creating one thousand new jobs. they want to know us and we're also building a company head office right here in the heart of catalonia we won't move our headquarters anywhere else that will keep the wealth in jobs in our region that's exactly what we want you to find out what's going on i think that as many see reports of companies leaving the region is cheap propaganda that's because the major corporations and banks are effectively only changing their registrations for tax purposes plants and jobs are staying here but the political crisis is affecting many companies orders are getting cancelled foreign investors are leaving add to that the regional government in barcelona is having trouble paying its bills. but on the bible and waiting six months for the authorities to pay their bills.

that's heard on my company. i have to get a loan to pay my workers. when i call the authorities about the payment they say their hands are tied that many of us. companies are caught between the two sides of the political crisis which continues to escalate. well from all on they said like to bring in correspondent. hena now he is in barcelona mikhail volatility in recent weeks now for the uncertainty what does all of this mean for the markets. well the markets in spain are watching every step and every news coming out of catalonia and today it's been a very confusing situation first there were news about regional elections this later was there not confirmed by the president so it's a very tricky situation for investors and for the business community as such to calculate and to know what's going to happen next right at the moment the cuts

alone parliament is doing is in a session so again we're waiting for it will be the next move and everything is up in the air very tricky as you say for investors concerns that this could hurt catalonia but it's also the country's wealthiest region we have to remember so couldn't this end up hurting both sides it does hurt both sides already today the spanish minister of economy announced that growth for next year will slightly decrease due to the political instability and so we can clearly see that this is not only a problem for catalan businesses actually if you take the number of cattle and businesses that have moved out of the region it's rather small talking about one thousand compared to over half a million companies which are basically the backbone of the spanish and just industry really here and that's an interesting point that you make because headlines have been saying for weeks now that big companies have been leaving

catalonia in droves is that really the case. so from my point of view you have to definitely differentiate between the big multinational companies specially those who are registered on the stock markets they want to be on the safe side so they have moved their fiscal address out of catalonia somewhere else on the peninsula but then looking at medium size and a lot of them actually are family companies here in catalonia they are deeply rooted in the region they have a production here they people are working here and if you take for example the famous catalogue wine maker frazier nad they consciously move there when you're somewhere else in spain so mostly at the moment it's being used as an argument from both sides really and probably will go go on being used from both sides as a political pressure. and hannah our correspondent in barcelona thanks for your

reporting. you're welcome. actually now in a crisis which is really exploded in recent years it's hard breaking as well and i think you the united states is in the grip of a massive public health crisis o.p.o. drugs have become the main cause of death among americans under the age of fifty more than ninety people die every day in the u.s. from opioid drug overdoses back in two thousand and fifteen the death toll was more than thirty three thousand that's a four fold increase in deaths since one thousand nine hundred ninety nine while most people start off with pain relief medication prescribed by their doctor innocent enough but these are the biggest killers by overdose those who can no longer afford these pills turned to cheaper opioid drugs like heroin and fentanyl shipped illegally from mexico and china while significant increases in overdose deaths rates were primarily seen in the eastern united states the highest death

tolls occur in the four states of a west virginia new hampshire ohio and kentucky all now president donald trump has declared a national emergency to address this growing crisis the move would unlock more federal funds for local authorities many small town budgets and budgets and emergency crews are stretched to the very limit due to a surge in overdoses did abuse others are a phenomenon as this report from a small town in ohio on the front lines of this epidemic it's raining in eighth liverpool a high oh ok so tell book has been on patrol friends early morning like to think that the weather doesn't keep them from not wanting their drugs. to get on really bad no matter if it's. sun rain snow. come out for. the policeman co-op he knows this area well. tony it's on river

road heading towards downtown. oakland his colleagues have just arrested a woman she's wanted to connect charges. so i guess it looks like ok because jane. this is your purse. this your wallet. this is your wallet. this rolled up here. was one of the sleeker where you. east little pool was once called the buttery capital of the world but with the decline of the ceramics industry came joblessness and.

this used to be housing there. less one fake and. leaving no one lives there these are older weaker occupy but very rundown. you were given not just to tell what has consider moving away. if i moved away there be no one here to to take care of our parents saying that mother siblings had left town. for. other jobs and sisters married and lived where their husbands worked out. so i made a commitment to the stay here and ride the storm out. the police received in the my

agency call about a truck all photos on the night shift offices on duty for which he took she sometimes we began. to chat and appalled he said. they feel that she has attempted suicide the big god you know my granddaughter you want to know why i am doing this because my daughter may have done us that are not while all this without any. one nowhere around you i was in the woods. me there are. many people who live here say they feel like losers there are hardly any jumps or prospects but in residents of east liverpool a higher. ranking report there from alexander for not all right we move on out to soccer where the german cup has been in full swing this week the most hotly anticipated game of the round saw lifecycle play host to byron

munich robert clubs are near the top of the bundesliga table and their cup match was a tie encounter that went all the way to penalties. the rb leipzig ime to bar in munich had silverware on their minds after a go this opening half the game's rhythm changed off to the break this fell by like six nobby kato on robert live and led to his second yellow card of the evening and an early trip to the dressing room oh playing with ten men didn't slow down the hosts after sixty eight minutes of use of polson was brought down by jerome boateng i mean forsberg stepped up to the spot when they. put their lead was short lived just five minutes later boateng found tiago i was confident his perfect tatter level to score. higher dominated into extra time but there was no getting past life see keeper paycheck goulash. a penalty shoot out back and then

biron put away all their spot kicks. unfortunately for leipsic team of then i couldn't convert the visitors and plans to the next round was. all right and to tell us what brian's victory means for the rest of the season the man to talk to chris harrington is right here with me so what dyslexics last me for that going forward well i think it is definitely a motivational tool movie for because if you factor in they played over an hour with a disadvantage bar had an extra man on the pitch because not the key. kate's got sent off so over an hour yet the factor in the a draw that's very good and this is the third this was the third time these two sides faced off and life they seem to get better and better each time the first time they faced off last season it was a blowout they lost with by one goal and for all intents and purposes this was a draw a will even fought match and these two teams face off again this upcoming weekend it's in munich so that's typically harder for any opt opposing team become

immediate could be biron but it looks good maybe they pulled one off who now is here now is that we can dream oh yeah nice if out is it a done deal now for bahrain or dartmouth for that matter you know it all comes down to the draw because that's going to take place in speaking it depends who you're pitted against last season dorman and byron faced off in the semifinals dortmund prevailed and they went on to win the german cup so all of the top teams are always favorites but it all comes down to the match up my money is towards biron considering your pike is returned i think barak and obviously disappoint dortmund this time around and walk away with us over where are you now cologne and bremen are both through i understand even though neither team managed to lead when you had to sit israel yet they've been struggling they've been struggling domestically and not nine games no wins but in the german cup it's always good anytime you win it's a first you know for both clubs cologne very good impressive win over head to here

in berlin and they have somewhat of a local rivalry coming up a darby against labor who's in that's big maybe that will carry over into this upcoming weekend werder bremen they pulled off a miracle and beat hoffenheim hoffenheim is a top tier club domestically their win maybe it also carries over they travel to it's a play or they host scuse me out for so who knows i mean any time you win motivation maybe it carries over it and they're still alive at least the. so there's also a lot of actions i mean this weekend to look for great stock research and greatly appreciate thanks so much now and today here in germany a woman has written an apology to a man living in america who lost his childhood home when he was handed over to her family by the nazis thousands of jewish owned properties were confiscated or forcefully sold by his regime decades later those involved in this case confronting
