pressure is growing on pakistan islamabad this record its high commissioner from delhi where do you see this heading. well i'm a thought it is work snorting that ties between india and pakistan have been strained historically and this abuse the communication between the two countries increase is going to create a liquid into the kind of environment that that it's heavily influenced by what's happening in kashmir now there was a major attack on the army back in twenty six as well and over the last two and a hop the us dies have been very straining to after the iran contra government came too far in pakistan even the national security advisor in pakistan that position does not exist anymore and that is one of the key channels of communication all of the channels have been ready have been very undermined by this and now that india pressing for pakistan to be isolated internationally the country has been downgraded from a most favored nation status which gives it trade benefits and there are many other
1:04 pm
a cause that india is making to be international community to designate for example muscle as a un doesn't get a terrorist sort of definitely a dot of pressure on pakistan to act and the drawl of the of the ambassador also shows that communications are going to be strained if not completely shut down and at the public level and then we should the outrage in india is also playing out against muslims in the country with people being beaten up and threatened what can you tell us about that. again i'm above these reports are conducted but there is confirmation there are new reports that are saying that many cushioning students in other parts of the country at least and do steve actually have to lock themselves up to a fear of this outrage now a lot of the outrage that has scored out on the streets has been directed at park upon but because of increases in home grown militancy in no embassy to question it there has been some pushback against people from kashmir against people living in indian occupied christian leader as well however there's also a counter-narrative there are many people who come out on post the media on twitter
1:05 pm
offering the say people and offering their homes to question we give to them to cause me to people outside of push me just in case they feel trapped and so forth coming in from both sides but there definitely is anger as well. in delhi thank you very much for that update. let's now bring you up to date but some other stories making news around the world the yemeni government and with the rebels have agreed to start drawing forces from the key port city of their the united nations described the deal as important progress the talks were led by a danish chandra who met both sides. five european lawmakers have been denied entry to venezuela after being invited by said proclaims present one why though the group says their passports have been seized according to the spanish and e.p. esteban consolidate spawn's they have not been provided with the reason for the expulsion. seven british lawmakers have confirmed their leaving the opposition

labor party and will sit in parliament as an independent group the m.p. said they decided to quit because of party leader jeremy corbyn support for briggs it they also cited corbin's failure to stamp out anti semitism and bulling within the party. australian prime minister scott morrison says a cyber attack on the parliament's computer networks last month was carried out by those he caught a sophisticated state actor morris and revealed the country's three main political parties had been affected but said there was no evidence of interference in the australian elections which are expected in may one voice. a new fiction has emerged in transatlantic relations over the fate of european nationals captured fighting for islamic state in syria jim lee says it was that france and britain in response to u.s. demands to leave back treat some eight hundred european extremists that's after
1:07 pm
a tweet from president donald trump threatening to release captured fights is under seal or puts them on trial. jihad on the march in syria these images from the fall of rock in twenty fourteen. islamic state has since been defeated here and across nearly the entire country many fighters are dead and more have been taken prisoner recently the u.s. backed kurdish led syrian democratic forces or s.d.f. besieged the city of backcross the last remaining iowa stronghold the kurds say hundreds of foreign fighters remain in kurdish prisons their wives and children live in camps in northern syria the s.d.f. have long complained that european states are refusing to take back their own citizens u.s. president donald trump has echoed those concerns and has even threatened to release the jihadists he tweeted the united states is asking britain france germany and
1:08 pm
other european allies to take back over eight hundred isis fighters that we captured in syria and put them on trial the caliphate is ready to fall the alternative is not a good one and that we will be forced to release them europe hasn't yet come up with a clear response over the future of foreign fighters and their families. repatriation of aietes fights as would only be possible if it could be guaranteed that these people could immediately be prosecuted and also detained upon arrival in other words you need information to do that you need to investigate those procedures as long as that is not the case i would find it extraordinarily difficult to carry out . this i guess militant from germany is being held in a detention center in syria like others he'd like to return home but berlin hasn't said what it intends to do with him also unclear the fate of the fighters wives some of them say they don't regret joining the terror group but now wish to return i don't regret it because. it's changed me of the past. so. you know
1:09 pm
my husband i wouldn't. have my kids. i did have a good time. to sit there and. take him. to prosecute or rehabilitate the question of how to deal with returning as fighters and their families will remain a major challenge for european countries. and you discuss this challenge you have with me do you have any correspondent found up in just one welcome center now does donald trump have is he making a fair point when he says captured is fighters should face trial in their home countries if they come from europe the european countries should take them back i'm not so sure that twitter is the right way to communicate complicated foreign policy issues but yes he does have a point because frankly why short kurdish militias controlling the northeastern part of syria he left alone with the problem of foreign fighters you know it's not
1:10 pm
a state entity it's not their citizens if we want to use this term and if we look at figures i mean yes those eight hundred fighters but we're also talking about plus six hundred women plus one thousand two hundred children and of course those children you know they haven't done anything wrong so i think europe needs to you know basically come to a conclusion of how to go about it just shying away saying this is a very complicated issue i think that's too easy so tell us more about the reaction from european officials especially france germany britain to donald trump's demand that europe should take these people back they all sound very much alike if you ask me we have seen our german foreign minister. he's basically saying it's very difficult to realize because we need paperwork you know people might claim we had german citizens in fact they are not and if you take them back of course you don't just want to release them you want to maybe investigate them you might want to put
1:11 pm
them on trial and in order to do so some paperwork needs to happen in syria and all the european nations say we don't have functioning embassies there so who is going to be the one doing all the paperwork but on the other hand it's also i think an argument of shying away because it's an argument where you can say unless that is sorted out we are not taking responsibility and we are going to leave the kurdish allies and they were our allies in the fight against islamic state alone with the problem so notify hurdles then especially if the european countries say how do we prove that the us of dozens of countries so how do you see this issue been resolved . well look this afternoon i think the european foreign ministers would have a chance because they need and they are talking about precisely this issue as well as they address the syrian conflict i think i would like to take up an issue that was brought into the discussion by nobel peace laureate herself one of those. who
1:12 pm
were persecuted by islamic state in slaves being a sexual slave and she said look shouldn't we basically think about the idea of an international court where these people are trite of course all of that would also need to be sorted out and maybe the right way of going about it is the international crimes court or you know a united nations special tribunal as we have seen in other cases i think that might be an idea but that doesn't address the issue of women and children who are basically now in camp tents in northeastern syria and as i said especially those children about one thousand two hundred they haven't done anything wrong and i think european nations should act quickly on this one right centerpiece and thank you very much for your insights. now there is strong atlantic friction on trade as well the u.s. commerce department has delivered the results of a fair trade investigation called for by the white house it reportedly concludes

1:15 pm
there was an explosion another flight suddenly everything went blurry and i was out . an improvised grenade covered in scrap metal and shards of pottery had exploded at her feet victoria suffered more than fifty flesh wounds but she couldn't go to hospital because police were arresting for testers in the wards. instead she ended up in an improvised field hospital in the smaller street apparent still had no idea she was in q let alone room did that is until ukrainian t.v. crew appeared. here below much to my face was covered in bandages so that no one would recognise me but one of my mum's friends recognised this birthmark on my neck in the t.v. report that's how our parents found out. meanwhile tensions were increasing further as protesters began a counter-offensive drawing of a closer to the government district police change their tactics and live ammunition
1:16 pm
came into play. casualty numbers were rising fast and soon dozens of protesters were being killed every day among them was all excited the copying us put it before all the shooting got underway he came up to me one morning and put his arms around me and said go home you don't have to be here. i'm going to put that if. i'm by the end of the week more than a hundred people have lost their lives images like these ones around the world. present in a coach's position become untenable within days he was gone fleeing to russia. five years on from the modern does victoria still think the protests had a last impact on the country. if i see all the changes these are changes we really need this country is finally being built yes maybe not as fast as we had hoped or expected but it's happening with many even a form of protest to say it was all in vain two months protesting and they thought

they'd wake up in a new european country with better wages that's not how life works. to uganda non-doctor countries tourism minister of course an outcry after saying the country should showcase curvy women in order to attract will visit us at a plus size beauty pageant court misc of uganda got sick uganda said that full figured women were the story to sell his comments have been called degrading and a petition has been launched to get the action scrapped our correspondent julius maganda talked to both sides in this controversy. one of these ladies could soon be crowned miss covey uganda the beauty contest this chick to the four plus sized queens with the bishop's bodies and over two hundred women have applied you must be. those ladies know themselves that is the truth when i say when when you
1:18 pm
ask me what my someone do what are you going to consider we are considering. the idea to showcase women with body ships has been fronted by uganda's tourism minister good for it you wonder at the launch of the contest the ministers say the beauty queens could help attract foreign visitors and boost tourism tourism is not on the boat i just spoke out he was. doing. the we are committed to our house. women rights groups are furious and they have gone to court to block the page and for allegedly insulting women hold their. reduce woman. who approved and therefore were. one. apollo. on the internet uganda's miss cubbie has been made with anger and approval
1:19 pm
and it's a similar picture in the streets for some the minister is a champion of tourism promotion for others he's objectifying women. i think it's an excellent idea because over the years they've been really promoting the slender sizes you find teenagers in schools are trying to take lots of medication to lose weight and this is not healthy for us they're supposed to accept us as the minister behind this idea an eternity for here because this is not good he's got a wife can he presented here is a tourist attraction enough to get around with we are being portrayed like reg just sheep women like meat on sale out in them in the international wild market that's a very bad and i totally disagree and even feel happy that that given the plus size people an opportunity it's just like any other beauty pageant but it's only that this one is only for the plus size. facing the backlash minister denies that she's

1:21 pm
a big match up on sunday we had two european hopefuls go head to head against frankfurt and both are having solid seasons but trying for it a bit in a dilemma because they've been millis in the last five games and it's been basically one frustrating draw after another after another after another was this exact same story yesterday why don't we take a look. dominated the early going toward firing a warning shot in the eighth minute frankford allowed back to create a series of chances and it's forcing kevin trapp to make his best save of the first half. frankfurt didn't even fire on target until the thirty ninth minute to look costed denied by yon zama then with the last kick of the first half danny de costa to open the scoring for the hosts i cost a controlling unit time to go small corner and hitting the target. after that i
1:22 pm
instruct gave blood back few opportunities on to re bits almost made it to nil his shot going just why i frankfurt seemed to be running out of steam though and as korea pounced on a defensive blackout to pull the sides level i tried getting a hand to the ball but on able to stop it i said dream it should have netted the winner for gladbach as chime expired but he bounced the ball over the net one won the final score and both sides will be feeling they missed a chance to come away with more. and even worse what may have a cause and they also hoping for a spot in the european a european spot and out of the game turn out best way to describe they have a cruise right now is to call it the pick up last effect we saw this last season and thought. you know he gets his keep teams going to have a really great what why don't we take a look at this pick up bosh effect that everyone seems to be talking about right
1:23 pm
now. the grass seems greener on the paper ball so once again through the kitchen sink at his opposition five attacking players started for the hosts and it showed the eighteenth minute hobbits completely on much of the one mill strike having fallen had moved out wide to find the young german for his night of this. late accusing continued to press aggressively and could have had a second before the break but not for a last ditch tackle and kevin fall on sunday finishing. well said clearly told his charges to keep on shooting mitchell visors effort from an unlikely position gave the old bailey the chance to pounce after a goal is start of the season he has now schooled two in three matches but sunil when sees live accusing climb to fifth and stay on course for another top six finish well fortuna could afford to drop points after an impressive run and seemed happy enough in defeat. so even later on dortmund play
1:24 pm
a new gym bag and the top at the bottom of the bundesliga but don't want all those at the top they haven't had it quite so easy lately have they know they really have to stay on high end because by an eye catching up they have closed the gap to two points and for dortmund i mean a witness in the last four games this is really one of those things that don't mean they need to catch themselves before they fall because you know this could really turn into something very serious. enough possible industry. is seen around the world including in the stomach republican off. but the fans that couldn't watch the match the other night for a reason tell us what that is their instant television have really strict rules when it comes to censorship so women for example you know in shorts that's something that's. to be honest i know is of course as we all know is the first woman referee in the top football leagues and that was always going to be
1:25 pm
a problem because you know she wears black shorts and a t. shirt she has blonde hair as her she stands out right there in black and last season went by and played cologne you know they ended up wearing out and me close up shot of shine house and i think that was too much work for them because can you imagine this moving object and i think this time around they decided let's just not show the game at all which of course sucks if you're by and fan in iran actually just don't if you say anything more except to say a leader who tell you from did. and the future of track and field going to bed lists cost to somalia is on the line this week at a hearing by the court of arbitration for sport starting today the eight hundred meter champion is challenging a proposed rule by the governing body of track and field uncertain athletes including somalia but naturally elevated death tester levels it's a landmark case expected to resonate throughout the sporting world. here's
