chinese telecoms giant huawei chooses a company of industrial espionage and violating sanctions against iran this is the u.s. and china are trying to calm recent trade tensions plussed. is bad that's the message one london restaurant is serving up to its customers as parliament prepares to vote on the government's plan to leave the european union. and the comeback story of one of car racing up and coming talents we meet eighteen year old sophia bush who could have died when her formula three car went airborne in a race two months ago but she's overcome that fractures and any doubts about her skills and she's back on track with every intention of winning. hello i'm terry martin good to have you with us pakistan's supreme court is

reviewing its acquittal of b.b. the christian woman was charged with blaspheme. ne in the islamic republic and spent eight years on death row but in october she was found not guilty a ruling that sparked outrage among religious hardliners the supreme court usually dismisses reviews of its verdicts but given the nature of bibi's case today's outcome is far from certain. she's one of the most talked about women in pakistan. pictured hand shortly after her conviction in twenty ten the christian mother of five was sentenced to death for leisure islam during a row with fellow farm workers that refused to share their glass of water with a known muslim now free she lives in hiding no longer on death row but still in constant fear for her life. and this is why hard line islamists calling for had to be hanged. her acquittal in october last year triggered days of nationwide

demonstrations. who are who in every corner of the country the sons of islam have voiced opposition to the supreme court verdict by going on to the streets. what kind of a verdict is this from the supreme court of an islamic republic which is troubling muslims but satisfying infidels. demonstrations were any cooled off when the government agreed to bobby beef from leaving the country pending today's verdict but this is a case already linked to the killings of at least two people. the governor of punjab province some and his ia seen here on the right has the sustenance of by his bodyguard in twenty eleven i'm speaking in b.p.'s defense later the same year the federal minister for minorities shahbaz bhatti was killed off to calling for her

release. today's that it's likely to do little to appease those who threaten with the nothing less than having a death sentence reinstated. following the story from our asia desk and he joins us now shut me up bibi has already been acquitted what are the chances that the court will now allow that acquittal to be challenged on appeal well i think it is highly likely that pakistan stop this myth that beat against all the a b.b.c. quit and. the appeal by a hardline islamic is the boy was accepted by the court to make sure that all legal requirements are fulfilled and i think prime minister brown found the government also wanted to buy some time to make some political or just and so i believe that pakistan's top court the supreme court will dismiss that be an. acquittal last

october sparked by law and protests what's the mood in anticipation of today's hearing. well the islamist and he can look back balti this lama spotty as war on the judges nor to give the gold judicial relief to bibi. hundreds of islamists supporters took to the streets to protest bibi's acquittal in october last year but at the moment most of the leaders and that is in the gulf. that is why i do not think they will be able to create many problems on the government mr. what does this case tell us about the way pakistan interprets the country's blasphemy laws. tragic reminds us that the issue of blasphemy to mean that extremely extremely sensitive and. rights

groups criticize the blasphemy laws that the cia used to mistreat religious minorities in the country. but i do not think that any government in pakistan can repeal the blasphemy as. protests from islamists and i think people would accept that so it is a sensitive issue. as i said earlier it is very likely the supreme court dismissed that if you petition. before departure from books then she could be out of the country. like eat today. thank you very much for your analysis. there from our asia desk thanks very much for having me on the show. the u.s. justice department has charged chinese telecoms giant huawei with violating sanctions against iran and with industrial espionage the charges are linked to the

arrest in canada of always chief financial officer. who is also the daughter of the company's founder the move comes at a time of heightened tensions between washington and beijing due to a simmering trade conflict. the announcement was a long time coming if you believe the rumor mill the u.s. has officially cuse chinese telecom giant while weight of a bevy of crimes a grand jury in new york has returned an indictment alleging thirteen additional crimes committed by walk away it's c.f.o. it's affiliate in iran and one of its subsidiaries here in the united states the criminal activity alleged in this indictment goes back at least ten years and goes all the way to the top of the company the u.s. justice department accuses well these top brass of using a hong kong based shell company to funnel telecommunications equipment to iran in violation of international sanctions investigators also accuse wall ways engineers of stealing trade secrets from cell phone provider t.

mobile including robotics plans using t. mobile cell phone testing. the u.s. is also seeking the extradition of hallway see a full main one for her role in the alleged sanction violations she was arrested in kenya late last year in connection with the u.s. investigation huawei has long been suspected of having close ties to the chinese government. a cause for concern for some international observers. however both the company and the chinese government deny the accusations. just as the foreign ministry said with no evidence the charges are likely to throw a fresh banner in the works washington and beijing are set to reopen talks over their simmering trade conflict later this week. stephen beardsley from d.w. business has been following this story all along good morning steve the u.s. indictment against wall way it has lots of parts to it break it down for us one of

the main allegations right of the main allegations here are some of them that we've already seen one man one joe the chief financial officer was arrested and they include trying to circumvent sanctions u.s. sanctions against iran misleading banks as part of that and then some new ones and probably the most explosive one is that huawei executives who tried to cover up these efforts and that could play into the effort to extradite her from canada the us when these new charges come out as well as her bail and then of course there's a trade secrets as mentioned there that was part of a civil suit actually between t. mobile and huawei and now it's become part of the criminal charges so some stuff we've seen and some new stuff based on internal e-mails and memos from what the indictment say industrial espionage part i find really important or interesting at least colorful the idea of certain way employees apparently going into labs of t.v. . and grabbing a robot arm trying to take it or somebody there was an incentive actually from the company sort of a bonus program to see who could go the further with this interesting very serious

charges when it gets down to it what's the reaction from china direction from china is that this is part of a long term effort by the u.s. to undermine chinese companies they say that this is the term was unreasonable suppression of chinese companies is what the u.s. is practicing and obviously that would point to the correlation here between what the u.s. is trying to accomplish trade wise what it's trying to accomplish in terms of prohibiting. while way from being active in the five g. market which is something you and i were just talking about a big part of always business in the future and what the department of justice is doing they see a lot of they see something that they're uneasy about are very angry about when you talk about five g. just in case any of our viewers don't know what we're talking dealing with there it's the new telecommunications standard that gets really fast internet on a on a mobile basis and it could have huge implications everybody wants it it being rolled out where it's going to be rolled out and by whom is there's a lot at stake there what does this indictment mean for huawei in business terms it's not good i mean this is further this puts further pressure on nations were considering who to go to for their rollout of five g.

and how to go about those things because the u.s. has already had a pressure campaign on a lot of nations especially its allies and other nations maybe in the middle including germany who are still deciding where to deliver these contracts so it's not good and a lot of these nations though do want to see more evidence and maybe with this and some of the other allegations that have been drawn around putin the rest of executives in poland will start to see some of the evidence actually made public timing here very interesting briefly if you can what does this mean for the trade talks between china and us i mean you know the trade delegation from china was either in the mid air on its way or had just landed when this came out you can't imagine that that's a coincidence and look at mun one chose arrest this was also after the ninety day truce in the trade a few was announced there's obviously it seems that there's sort of this pressure game being played whether it leads to the result the us wants we'll see stephen thank you so much for now stephen beardsley from did up your business. now it's catch up on some other stories making headlines around the world today the u.s.

has imposed sanctions on venezuela's state oil farm curbing the country's crude export its through troubled ministrations latest move in its effort to venezuela's president nicolas maduro the embattled leader called sanctions illegal accusing the u.s. of wanting to steal that his way was riches and its territory. police in cameroon have a rest of the country's opposition leader. has been leading anti-government protests since losing what he says was a project election in october claims to have one the vote his arrest comes after police put down demonstrations against longtime president all be over the cap. and death toll from a collapse in southwestern brazil has risen to sixty five hundreds more still missing relatives of some victims have been protesting at the headquarters of the mining company baalei in sao paulo it's the second collapse to occur at a mine owned by in recent years. to london now where later

today the u.k. parliament is set to vote once again on the government's bragg's it plan in a vote just two weeks ago lawmakers rejected the deal today they're supposed to decide what changes they want the prime minister to seek to win parliamentary support the date for britain's exit from the e.u. is just two months away and signs of the country's debate over the issue are everywhere including at a restaurant in london run by immigrants. it's lunch time for even him dos in his restaurant westminster kitchen he arrived in london from the kurdish region of turkey twenty five years ago the recent breaks in parliament made either him decide to do something. but i did end up writing on my till system a message for the receipts to say bricks it is but immigration makes britain great also cooked in search of food today. not even him small act of protest in his

restaurant didn't come without consequences overnight nasty messages started appearing on social media. treat this with the gallows in which basically it's given your message to gargle dylan live it is so they are telling you what they might do to you. others posted threatening to burn the place down or to demonstrate in front of the restaurant most employees are from all over the world some arrived as refugees others to work like chef taric personally i'm not really feeling very good at the moment just you know things get in charge we can hear on the news all the time talking about the people have been called in aussie it insane. and according to tar ex boss abraham there is one clear reason for this change. since the brics it was the divisions in our country have grown up so there's more division than before the brics it will took place so the fruits we have sitting in unacceptable unpleasant and it's becoming the environment that the

government would see created has been a bit hostile recent surveys show that around two thirds of the british think breaks it has made people angrier and the same amount believe their country isn't on a good path as the date of britain's exit from the e.u. draws ever closer or. can be tough being an immigrant getting used to a new country learning a new language and of course finding a job but here in berlin finding employment is being made a little bit easier by the fourth annual jobs fair for immigrants thousands of them attended the event along with representatives of hundreds of companies seeking recruits. went along to see how it all worked out. he's originally from syria but yes dan has been living in germany for a year now he's still going to school but he's already looking towards the future he's trying to make contact with prospective future employers he's come to a job fair for refugees and there are plenty of contacts here around two hundred

companies and institutions are looking for candidates and offering information on career opportunities yes then already knows what he wants to become a pharmacist as in many months in my home country there are people who can't afford medication. and this is one of the good i want to help them by becoming a pharmacist an uptick of. their representatives from the health industry at the job fair like this contracting firm from the berlin hospital germany is desperately looking for caregivers that's why young migrants who have a good chance of gaining residency are in demand here. except my live in i think it's a win win situation meaning we have the chance to find new and motivated apprentices at the same time these people have an opportunity to gain a foothold in the german job market conversion of its market was to first job opportunities for refugees in germany change over time and depend on how long they

remain in the country one of the biggest hurdles for recent arrivals is not being able to speak the language. the language is difficult so is finding work oh. often looking for work is difficult. would you have to know german well. yes dunn is working hard on his john and someday he wants to study but perhaps before that do an apprenticeship going to the job fair is important to him and then coming here in four months and here you can get all kinds of information before you have a job. and the people here are really nice here. it's an experience that both helps and motivates visitors on the long road to finding a job. to cuba where a clean up operation is underway and parts of the capital have after a tornado tore through the city on monday the storm killed at least three people

and injured nearly two hundred keep it is often affected by hurricanes but tornadoes are rare. tornadoes demonstrates many here and have on a speechless day brief from torn worlds rooftops and trees has filled the streets of the capital cubans are used to hurricanes but attorney the last one was in one nine hundred forty some said the storm sounded like an explosion when it hit the city. it happened in a matter of seconds luckily it was only seconds it was a go on for minutes no one here would still be alive what we did when we felt the gusts of wind as things were being thrown about the first thing i did was create my daughter and go into the kitchen crouched in my kitchen so that nothing would happen to my child i've never seen anything like it never. the government

material it just set the deadly tornado that struck of on on sunday night of two hundred fifty to three hundred kilometers per hour but it wasn't only the magnitude of the wind that cost to have a book after years with little maintenance many of the houses that collapsed had been in a poor condition. cuba's president visited the roasted neighborhoods shortly after the storm. we have to report lives lost so far three deaths and many injured they've been taken to hospital to be treated. rescue workers are still combing through dozens of damaged buildings to find survivors while many people are still struggling to comprehend how such a brief visit taishan could cause such damage to their city. and i'm joined by an expat d.w. sports talk about a comeback in a car racing a comeback that's all the more remarkable because the driver is a woman and she's just turned eighteen yannick good to see you were talking about

sophia flourish an extraordinary story yeah hundred percent back in november you may remember that she was involved in a pretty horrific crash during filming three rice in macau and ana. is notoriously dangerous it's got very narrow straits in turns and it's not uncommon that there are crashes that this one was something else she was basically propelled through the air and crashed into a photographer's area and it was replayed of social media over and over again but she is on the mend and we caught up with her in munich to say how her recovery is going to. life goes on for sophia flourish the images of the crash that changed her life follow her wherever she goes but reliving that moment has helped her move on. i watched as so many times since ok now and also i think talking about it helps to watch because because the crash was just horrible looks horrible if you crash of

course you're angry and you're upset then you you wait for the wall to come it's quite strange but it happened so fast moving it. before i saw the video i didn't know that i was flying for me it didn't feel that bad and then the pain started kicking in doctors managed to repair two broken bones in flushes neck without damaging her spinal cord the operation lasted eleven hours the treatment was so successful that just a month after the accident she was already in physio therapy i never skied to not be able to continue my sport when i started doing some training and i really had to start from the beginning so this is kind of depressing at some stage but i think i mentioned quite a. i'm back kind of back where i was before four five weeks later i can be back in the car so i've never been not trying for such a long time so i'm relieved i'm here to have you back. is back in a driver's seat of sorts having recently turned eighteen and passed her driving

test but for a born racer it's just not the same as being out on the track. driving a highway oh so it's going to get you in the race cars so here i'm just driving as every other person there no rival so once you do use boards you just go you know your mind just shuts down and you try to be there when of course i know the risk but i also already knew the risks before the crash so. i grew up with the sports. but i started i was four years old and i've always loved the speed even in a go cart flourish was always faster than the boys for success helped her to move up the rankings very quickly all the way to formula three one of her toughest opponents over the past few years mc the son of michael schumacher. i know makes things a long time but always like fighting with each other we were fighting for many

years here if i have the same possibilities as him i would be to. this terror accident has brought her a lot of attention recently more than most drivers but she'd much rather people focused on her driving skills even at her favorite restaurant the spotlight is always on her health. i never really wanted attention because of a crush i wanted to because of success so everyone is now like who are you all you know you but i think once i step into the car and then perform well there i hope that everyone will see me again as the goal racing and to go racing fost between other drivers and not to go with the question sophia flourishes ready to put her crash in the past she's setting her sights on the formula three european championships in may. so far she's obviously bounced back from her injuries but what are her prospects yannick of actually making it as

a race car driver and jumping maybe from formula three to formula one yeah i mean it's not going to be an easy road that's for sure but i mean she's been go karting as we heard it since she was seven when she was fourteen years old she played in the genetic union championships the youngest ever race a female all male to win a race in the competition and she's broken numerous record since she was the first female to win points in the grand prix in formula for and she jumped in formula three and obviously her progress has been stalled somewhat with this crash with the setback but she has a very bright future and she's very ambitious she wants to reach the pinnacle of formula one first is very determined you can see that from her but she's up against more than just health issues and the normal challenges of driving how difficult is it for a woman in such a male dominated sport it's definitely not easy i mean women are clearly under represented in the sports but unlike other sports men and women do have the chance

to compete alongside each other so there is at least that chance for her to progress into formula one but it is an exclusive sport not many drivers in the sport and you have to be come from a wealthy background to actually compete in the sport but not many women have competed in formula one the last i think the competed in qualifying was giovanni two but women have been picked as test drives in formula one but it's still a tough road but flourish as big of missions we just heard from a she's young talented and clearly very determined to come back from such a horrific crash so very fascinating to see her progress of the next few years so flee the scene formula one so keeping an eye on her young expat from v.w. sport thanks so much. now this sunday the new england patriots face the los angeles rams in the super bowl but if you like your sporting events with a bit more bite then the puppy bowl is the greatest show on earth the game this
