a certain german's getting legendary status of his own name your organs and maybe just a few football victories away from joining the liverpool list that includes the beatles they're going up steam post byron munich tonight. i'm brian thomas thanks so much for being with us the catholic church is facing yet another storm of sexual abuse allegations this time in the southern indian state of catalog. the cases follow an all too familiar pattern allegations of abuse and then cover ups by top clergyman one of the most shocking examples a bishop accused of raping and nun thirteen times over a period of two years and not in that case says she was told to remain silent but as the church leaders close ranks one of her fellow sisters is encouraging victims

to speak out our india correspondent saw you know the car went to get out. it's early morning in. the church has always been a powerful institution but in recent months its foundations have been shaken by six scandal. a nun and get accused an influential bishop of repeated rape when officials beat actually a group of nuns around the victim and held unprecedented public protests. one of those who joined those protests was the. she cried from a home here in the district of why not to support the alleged victim. the nun is wary about being filmed public she chooses an empty auditorium to speak in the thirty six years that she's been in she's come across many instances of sexual abuse by the clergy. sex abuse in the chests by preach to that now.

but to solve this silent a lot of story i have all the day. got shared by the sisters and i don't how do three expedience say that prompting me to their own ambition but they're trying and they said trying to sit with that them that a lot of mistakes and said that but then wanted to. do. this for. instead of that they're covering up all this. the catholic church in india has largely stayed silent on the allegations against the bishop was arrested last year following the protests and then greeley's on bail even here and why not officials were relieved to see one priest who did agree sort to downplay the issue. my position is in my remembering.

over sixty years. that you are brought up in the public discussion so i thought that speaking out against the powerful catholic church and drawing attention to sexual abuse is never easy especially in a conservative state like. nuns who are dead to break the culture of silence faith ridicule isolation and even disciplinary action from the congregations this is. asked about joining protests sister lucy has written articles criticizing the church silence on sexual abuse she's received warning letters from her congregation ordering her to stop speaking out she's been accused of causing harm to the church and belittling the catholic leadership exams etc. that last anybody can speak

freely frankly. to the world if i am the southern nelly that can be made to them been a stat that so many are coming to their site many many are coming openly. to that society today to talk there is not if there is no cult like that yet all of a slave. in this case and so i think that and by now tomorrow despite the warnings the nun has no plans of backing away what i had to i had to do i must. say i think yes don't need like that. sister lucy is hope is that the lead to scandal will shine a light on the church speed leagues and make some much needed reforms. reporter on the story did have years on your former car joins us now for more good morning sagna study of the non involved in this case at the center of the allegations has not been named she's not giving any interviews what more can you

tell us about her. that's right i mean she remains anonymous she is based in the northern state of punjab where the bishop was she is who she is alleged rape is also based we don't know her identity as you said but i did manage to speak to a cousin oppose a father on the phone and he did tell me that she is really a broken woman that she's going to a lot of emotion and mental trauma quite understandably ok now this nona's been getting a lot of solidarity as we've seen especially from within her word or what about more largely how have india's catholics in general been reacting to this case. well india's catholics we have to remember the tiny minority in this country but that's still about twenty million people and they're growing so india's codee and nuns a hugely important to the catholic church in the west at

a time when church attendance in the west is so low and actions of being shut out but the scandal i think has really divided the catholic community here on the one hand you have these rape of the cultists by nuns and civil society groups ring breaking a long standing cultural silence on the other hand there are many christians in india who feel that they have to stand together now and really close ranks out of fear that the church you know maybe cost in the poor light at a time when religious minorities in india are feeling quite insecure and a hindu nationalist government led by prime minister but it will do so i think in the scone political climate the scandalous sparked a lot of i mean it's got. a son is the issue of sexual abuse of the church and hopefully the culture of silence you mention as well is going to be taken up by a hawk a very high profile some of the top bishops in rome this week are indian catholics expecting them to address specifically this issue. well i think that are certainly some boyce's here who will hope that this issue will be taken up at that

summit i mean we have to remember that india's siddle my live picture which is that may be based here but it really directly answer as to the tactic and i think there is growing pressure now on church authorities to really act given that the victim in this case had already complains to about half a dozen church officials a year earlier and they had you know asked her to maintain a side it's a good thing to take any action briefly if you could sunny what about the charges bishop franco is he scheduled for trial. when we don't have a date to put a trial as he has denied all the charges against him he's now out on bail back in his northern home state where this dioceses in the state of punjab and he was given a hero's welcome when he was released on bail last year by his supporters and that has really caused a lot of public outreach in india so your order for us thanks very much for that sorry. now for a look at some of the other stories making the news at this hour the vatican is

responding to the avalanche of sex abuse allegations facing the catholic church right now spokesman lisandro a saudi so the church needs quote to look the monster of abuse in the face as comments coming just before pope francis opens that crisis summit they've been talking about on the issue. india's top military commander in the disputed kashmir region has accused pakistan's main spy agency of involvement in last week's attack on a security convoy at least forty soldiers were killed in that car bombing claimed by a pakistan based militant group islamic jihad is annoying any complicity. brazilian president fireball so narrow has fired one of his most senior ministers over a campaign funding scandal sabo. was secretary general of the president's office brazilian markets fell on the news with investors fearing this case could enter also known as chances of passing key pension reforms. all sixteen u.s.

states led by california are suing the trumpet administration over the declaration of a national emergency they claim that plan to appropriate funds to build a wall on the nixon border violates the u.s. constitution the president's emergency declaration has also drawn opposition from activists. who were doing it in food view of the white house. in new jersey. texas. in south carolina. and in colorado a grassroots show of force in opposition to the u.s. president in colorado we will be on the side of the rule of law. and because colorado would be over by this illegal action having funds that are

dedicated to be spent here moved elsewhere we will be joining in action to challenge. their own sixteen states to challenge what they see as a cash crop taking disaster relief money to pay for a more than two thousand kilometer long vanity project on the mexico border the wall standoff came to a head on friday when president trump said he would invoke a rarely used power bypassing congress to fund his campaign promise i could do the wall over a longer period of time i didn't need to do this but i'd rather do it much faster for his opponents not statement appeared to undermine his case there's a crisis president trump got it right when he said he didn't have to do this but i would now pressure is mounting from within his republican party with senators objecting i think it's a bad idea whether that last currently written permits it or not if it does then i

think it's a moment to sort of study whether congress is delegate it's too much power to the executive but i actually i just think it's about. as she arrived back at the white house donald trump may have missed the protests but the brewing political writer will be harder to escape. a spriggan scott lucas professor of american studies in birmingham for more on this good morning to scott there's already speculation that the case being brought by sixteen u.s. states will be winding its way through the through the court system all the way to the u.s. supreme court what happens next what kind of timeline we're looking at here on that case. well it's not just this case there are three other cases such as in texas that was filed on friday all these cases will work their way through the lower courts and then as you noted intially could get to the supreme court that process will take months because of course each court will take time to deliberate each court will take time to rule so don't expect like an overnight decision which is

going to withdraw the national emergency ok so this could take months now in the interim can the president use the emergency funds that he wants to build the wall on the southern border. and that's a great question because the legal position is will any of these courts issue an injunction so for example the case in texas is filed by a nature reserve and landowners who say look we don't want you to take our land to seize it to build this wall so that court could in theory issue an injunction that says no action can be taken while we continue to hear this case and of course that injunction would be appealed by the government and would continue but in the interim it least in that area no president trump could not divert the money but beyond that there's the political fight and i think this is even quicker mitch mcconnell the senate majority leader told altaf last week when you issued this national emergency you have two weeks to make the case if you can't make the case

then congress might pass a bipartisan resolution to override your national emergency and that's the more immediate challenge to tromp that congress could block not only a diversion of money but the emergency itself ok what kind of popular support does the president have right now on the wall on the emergency declaration a number of polls are showing that doesn't fact have strong backing. now need to correct you there one poll which is rasmussen has a majority favoring the wall but rasmussen is well known for being an outlier poll that tilts about ten percent toward strong on every issue all the other polls show that a majority of americans by varying amounts right against the wall and more significantly they show that by about a two to one margin americans oppose a national emergency to take the money for the war. ok so what do you see happening . i think we are going to see increasing pressure on the trumpet ministration politically and legally which means that the money will not be seized from the military to build the wall but i think the game is longer i think trungpa his

advisors may know that the wall will not be built they're using this is a campaign issue in two thousand and twenty in other words we're trying to save america from the supposed invasion but look congress and the courts are preventing us from being the valiant saviors who deserve to be in the white house for four more years scott lucas fessor of american studies and burping in britain thanks very much for that scott thank you well president trump has been warning members of venezuela's military to accept an amnesty offer by opposition leader on why go or to quote risk losing everything speaking in front of the venezuelan community in miami trump urns officials supporting president nicolas maduro to allow humanitarian aid into the crisis that country and side with wideout the eyes of the entire world were upon them. well as international pressure grows to accept the aid ahead of a saturday deadline madeira lashed out at trump accusing him of speaking what he called a nazi like style. down in miami donald trump was in miami with

a tired rhetoric questioning the right of our free country to adopt the ideas of human christian socialism are socialism just like a nazi style speech to prohibit idiology as. donald trump wants to ban idiology us political diversity and wants to impose the white house's white supremacist views. on bush. well more than three million venezuelans have fled the economic collapse and political crisis in their country most of the refugees heading to neighboring countries but many are also seeking a new life in the u.s. south florida's home to more than one hundred thousand as well and you have us all over salad visited that community and sent us this report. life could be so nice in miami beach. new home in exile but when the venezuelan refugee fled to the

united states he had to leave behind everyone he left after six months behind bars as a political prisoner he feared for his freedom his safety and his future. if i do not meet the out of what you see i felt persecuted every day the police published a list of wanted people and my name was on that list published in several papers it was a dangerous situation but the only thing i did wrong was the money and liberty about . his new home lies in the neighborhood of stately mentions fancy on the outside but so rundown on the inside he's embarrassed to show that he is safe here he says a job in a hotel earn some money to survive and to help his mother in venezuela. i don't i don't recall trying this young. if there is nothing to eat many people either undernourished even becoming fat because the only

things that you can buy are pasta and flour that's it i mean. southern florida is home to one hundred thousand venezuelans bringing with them the tensions of two opposing sides protests are common here against the business partners of venezuela's president ma dural self declared president why don't supporters say they are trying to keep their money safe by investing in real estate in the neighborhood. policy collina represents the politically persecuted venezuelan so broad he shows us around the miami suburb off to rile which many moderate supporters and i'll call home and us and also that i want us out we try to find these people and suggest they are expelled from the us and have their assets confiscated it doesn't make sense that there's some fled persecution have to live next to the perpetrators initially. this venezuelan restaurant is the preferred

meeting place for why dual supporters for our own b m e's are an active member of one bloodless party the self declared president represents the country's biggest chance for freedom in decades but i mean are going to feel now that i believe we are now witnessing the end of the my two year old regime we just have to carry on and he will lose popularity and power which is already happening pay by day. and the end of the idea. it's this optimism that keeps. a life and his hope that one day he can return to his home safely. ok we're going to take a look now at how one russian institution is dealing with juvenile offenders located in the euro mountains some twelve hundred kilometers east of moscow's a home for young men with criminal records mung them seventeen year old body who committed a crime and early age now he's being given strict training designed to prepare him

for a life in the military did have to use your shadow as this. that. wants to be good he's started his life over now he trains here several times a day completely cut off from the outside world. you know and almost i stole a car and had an accident. that i run off with. the police called me two days later the right now. but it just can point to. that d.m. has been at this facility for juvenile law offenders in serafin russia for two years many of the boys here are similar to him. they struggled on the outside they stole cars they beat people up took drugs some of them even murdered but here they have a disciplined routine. it's lunchtime and five am is on duty

is day to day life is defined by order clear rules and discipline. so. i was a terror outside i was constantly fighting with the boys i've changed completely here. some of the children here are orphans many others are the children of alcoholics and drug addicts some of their parents are in jail. the general idea here is that boys like five pm should improve their behavior and ideally become soldiers. and if you do it it will require the same of everybody the bad has to be made like this like it's an envelope that should look perfect like this very tight. this is a boys' school we're preparing them for the army this is not

a prison. many boys from sarah from ocha do join the army where they are taught to be patriotic servants of the state there's not much emphasis on forming critical citizens who question authority. the children are taught that they should be grateful for a second chance. to toure's here are convinced that they are doing buddy him and other boys like him a favor. i never thought of us scaping they treat us well here. several thousand boys have gone through this facility since it opened in the one nine hundred seventy s. they're mainly from surrounding towns and bash carter style but there are such

reeducation facilities all over russia. the boys here are aged between eleven and seventeen. none of them came here voluntarily but for now this has become home. we're turning to europe's top club tournaments in the round of sixteen in the champions league tonight's premiere match up sees england heavyweights liverpool hosting byron munich the ripples german coach you're going to clap is hoping his team can dominate on their home field has managed to bring new energy to liverpool and is gaining almost legendary status in the city. of. liverpool loves its legends among them the beatles and hometown club never pull absi since its foundation in one thousand nine hundred two the club has won eighteen league titles but it's been twenty nine years since they were last

champions under coach you're going car their fans are allowing themselves to dream big again jurgen klopp is the best manager in the fort worth anything anything to his. club has been in charge at liverpool since twenty fifteen where his manager. style is popular with most of the supporters last year his side reached the champions league final but lost to real madrid. if they want to keep their hopes alive of reaching the final again they'll need to get past german giants barn unic and so long way to go and to finish the season and you don't think about it going to leak season if you think about a. night a really big one and then one of these games if i would be not involved and really happy about being involved and if not i would buy a ticket. a german team has never won a champions league or european cup match and on field. byron have tried on three occasions coach nico is familiar with klopp who used to coach dortmund and his only

respect for him. doesn't keep those he doesn't give up he's a fighter he just keeps going you can see that with his team well we're expecting this on tuesday and in the second leg in the which we're going to talk about that if you're going to top it manages to lead liverpool to champions league glory he may well become one of the club's legends. talk about talent club the third division side. has been expelled from the league after starting their match against can nail on sunday with only seven players their first team players have been out on strike after not being paid their salaries for months six of progress since a squad were teens from the club's academy and one eighteen year old also had to fill in as coach the result was not pretty twenty mil for nail the final score of the head of the italian f.a.
