7:04 am
local media here is reporting that the thirty seven year old turkish man was recently released from prison where he'd done a short stint inside for breaking parole conditions. he has a long rap sheet criminal record he was known to police he's a violent crime fair so they're the details that are emerging but police are also looking into alleged links that he and some family members had to a salafist organization that originated in germany but police haven't been saying much more about the motive i'm afraid they they are not ruling anything out they're still looking into those possible terror motive and also just just somebody who was on the edge ok rebecka with the suspect has a criminal past as you mentioned a solid first tires as well police are also looking into possible links with so-called islamic state do you have any information about that for us. that's right
7:05 am
brian as i mentioned they are looking at all possible motives and all possible links but nothing more has been released about any possible links to i yes i did mention that some family members may be linked to this organization indeed the man himself may also be linked to the salafist organization but but nothing more to any alleged links with the i.r.s. ok can you fill us in on the other individuals who are now in detention. well details still are still few and far between unfortunately brian i can't fill you in on too much more what i can say is that a third suspect was arrested late last night so that's three in total now in custody obviously the main suspect is that thirty seven year old turkish man another person was arrested earlier yesterday and as i said a third person last night police are obviously questioning and investigating their involvement rebecca what have been the reactions where you are to this shooting
7:06 am
oh police people are obviously very shocked and i mean this is crimes like this are very rare in the netherlands a gun crime in particular they have been you know largely spared of these sort of terrorist attacks in recent years so people have been shocked but this is the site of the attack and as you'll see behind me they've already cleared the site the tram has been removed and the city is back up and running this morning people getting on with things and trying to keep good spirits and not a not be sort of harmed by this attack rebecca rose for us and thanks very much for backup. let's check in with some of the other stories making news this hour russian president vladimir putin has marked the fifth anniversary of bosco's on a station of crimea with a visit to the peninsula the takeover came after months of tensions with ukraine following the ouster of

in their school for two days. two of their fellow pupils on the stuff member had been killed after a boulder crushed through their dormitory. this situation in zimbabwe and mozambique in the aftermath of cycle and a day that affected the two neighboring countries is getting desperate particularly here in money money where people are having to walk long distances because they've been cut out from essential services bridges have been washed away vehicles kind to reach those areas where people need assistance in this area you can seem odd because composite this place taking in the mud we have spoken to. people along the way we have doctors without borders while also trying to reach people we affected but the country to those areas because it's virtually impossible. well here in
7:11 am
germany this country is launching its auction for the construction of an ultra fast five g. mobile network today just as the trans-atlantic dispute over the chinese hardware supplier walk away rages the u.s. has deep concern its security concerns about chinese telecom equipment maker hallways and washington is threatened and intelligence sharing with berlin completely if it doesn't exclude hardware made by walk away from its infrastructure the u.s. argues that the chinese equipment could help beijing spy on western companies governments and military operations. ok lots at stake here we're joined for more by stephen beardsley from the business good morning stephen morning five g. the auction starts today this is all about the future of communications isn't it absolutely and today is seen as a concrete first step for germany towards building out that new network and of course germany's been criticised because compared to a lot of other developed western nations of its status it doesn't quite have four
7:12 am
g. in areas the you'd imagine the coverage is actually pretty pretty pretty low so now it's starting up in the five g. process that's also been criticised for the bureaucracy some. around it. just the slow roll out the time that it's taken so hopefully this will sort of move things faster real quick they're looking to raise about three to five billion euro here on the government is by selling off these frequencies that the major carriers like telecom like vodafone that they need to provide to provide the five g. network that that's what's happening today it's going to cost significantly more for each of these carriers to build out their network as much as three hundred to five hundred billion euro for all of europe that was an estimate by deutsche telekom their chief recently so very expensive prospect but they also hope to make a lot of money on it in the future the government doesn't and while way is the main player in five g. globally isn't it and they have a main role to build out or could potentially absolutely brian they're they're one of the furthest along probably in terms of network hardware so this is the major
7:13 am
hubs sort of the basically the joints of the network that these carriers are going to be installing that means that all these carriers i assume all of them are going to rely on while way in terms of cost in terms of technology it's better than the rivals you would see such as ericsson things like that those would be more expensive to use so if the government wants a build up that's affordable it's going to probably have to allow these carriers to go with huawei what we've seen with the auction is that it has not prohibited them from using quality which is something that could be expect now this is of deep concern to the united states right and actually the fact that germany did not prohibit in the contracting process in this auction appears from using huawei that's already a blow to the u.s. the u.s. of course sees huawei as a trojan horse for the chinese government saying that they could use it for espionage for service disruption for example and there's no way to get around that germany says however that they can build some redundancy into the system they can work around it but their intelligence services also have concerns here and of
7:14 am
course we've heard from nato as chief commander their top general that they have concerns too and the big threat right now from the u.s. from nato is to stop intelligence sharing with germany if they use huawei and they're not. works ok and the auction starts today and when we don't know if weiwei will be one of the companies that gets the contract but it but it is an important company is what we will not be bidding today but the carriers that will be betting will likely be using what way ok seriously for us your business thank you very much and we'll have much more on the five yox indeed of your business right after this program still to come we take you inside senegal's new museum dedicated to black cultural traditions as carrier wants to see african artifacts returns to the continent for good. but first with just ten days to go before britain is due to pull out of the european union there's a new crisis in london the speaker of the house of commons has announced that a third vote on prime minister teresa mayes bret's
7:15 am
a plan will not take place because it breaks the rules only a plan that differs substantially from previous plans can be voted on the ruling came as a surprise to both the government and parliament let's take a listen. moment government can all legitimately do is to resubmit to the house the same proposition or substantially the same proposition as last of last week which was rejected by one hundred forty nine. this ruling should not be regarded as my last word on the subject bt simply meant to indicate the test which the government must meet in order for me to rue that a third meaningful figures can legitimately be held in this parliamentary session. let's go straight to london and correspondent beer get moss outside
7:16 am
parliament for us to get what does this mean does mays breck's a plan in its current form now look bad. well we have to remember brian that still the default position that if there is no solution to one of the government's top legal advisor calls a constitutional crisis if there is no solution to bret's and then the default position is still that at the end of next week at the twenty ninth of march that britain will leave the european union and there might not be any plan for the future at hand so this is still what's most likely to happen now nobody wants the u.k. to crash out or not many people want the u.k. to crush out the european union with a future plan and hand so the government here and also brussels they will do what they can in order to avert a crisis and also the government is hoping that they somehow find another
7:17 am
technicality maybe a way around this problem what the speaker has just put in front of them so either a long extension looks like the or the u.k. really leaving at the end of next week with no plan ok now the government seemed completely blindsided by the speaker's use of rule dating back to sixteen zero four let's listen to what bracks and secretary stephen barclay had to say we need to consider the right. to speak. about the over security considerations. overseas. so are we looking at the possibility of a no deal bracks and it has that most likely possibility in ten days' time. i would say is the most likely but it's still something that really threatens a lot of parliament ariens and that's part of threes and my strategy that she has put the pressure on to m.p.'s she's always said it's this deal. she's kept it open
7:18 am
until the last minute before in peace to vote just you know less than two weeks for a week for the deadline in order and once again for four high deal and to put it again and again in front of parliament she wanted to put pressure on the many m.p.'s that don't want a no use in our use and now the government would just try to maybe change the wording in the meantime they're also trying to get their deal three through consensus they're still talking to the northern irish m.p.'s they're trying to have somehow another go at changing the votes and changing the parliamentary era through the tick so that if they do find another way of getting this in front of the house of parliament somehow you know another technicality that allows them to put it in front of them which is still what they're hoping to do that then they have this time the votes in front of them the votes to get this deal through but it doesn't look very likely there's still a lot of opposition to terrorism may still that she still hopes somehow to get it
7:19 am
through parliament ok well briefly what happens next what does the government go from here. well we know that there is an e.u. summit this week so to reason may will go there most likely she will ask for an extension. because if there really is no or no other way here forward she will have to ask for an extension principally and in any case also if she does get a deal through there's not much there's not enough time to to get all the ducks in a row to be prepared for brakes though that's a very likely scenario and here in london at least the expected expectation is that he you will accept it but of course has to be unanimous decision so nothing is clear when it comes to breaks it. for us in london from parliament there thanks very much. so. time with no solution at the
7:20 am
moment site how do people here in germany see the crisis in britain we ask the e.u. . i think the e.u. should be tough because i think in england the punch and judy show is taking place on the other hand there is a good side to this because those who are against the e.u. are now seeing. it acts as a deterrent. and. you don't have to stick to hard deadlines just because they're there you have to see what's best for the e.u. . and the best option would be to consider how you can help a country that maybe should come back to the e.u. . it helps. to make a point of being tough and not make it easy for the u.k. . preferred the idea of pushing ahead diplomatically by negotiation that way there's the possibility of a positive outcome if you haven't found the right solution yet then you can't leave
7:21 am
the you you have to sit down and find a solution to force a decision just because the deadline is now i don't like that. i think we should consider so we can persuade the british to rethink and unite the european union again after all it's not good for either side if we. we have some sports now and a new look a new sponsor and a new team boss the german national football team. home of. germany are preparing for wednesday against serbia. for the twenty twenty euros against. netherlands over the weekend. for the unveiling of the. player over thirty years of age in the upcoming two matches germany. devoid of many of the big names of the past decade.
