in libya and she joins us now from tunis to musea hi paula welcome to date of the africa tell us more about this cam to struggle with who runs it will funds and who lives in it and how they get there. and what we're talking about that as attention center that is the case it's in an area of active conflict yesterday night it was hit by 2 airstrikes there are around $600.00 persons who are refugees and migrants in this detention center to which you are has had regular access we had news of this airstrike happening right now we are deeply saddened extremely shocked about what has happened for and our teams who are there today they're there they've been there the whole day trying to assess the situation and trying to understand a bit more what happened and how can we further support them robert palmer who is responsible for that camp who is responsible for the people that are there and having that camp exists in the 1st place. well the detention center is part of

the libyan policy of detention to which units continuously calls for an end to detention in need yeah we have called even today made a public statement asking for the immediate release and for an end to the tension. they are managed by the authorities we have regular access whenever possible. due to our roads being blocked and we are present as much as we can ok szell so you've called for people to be released from detention but as we understand it there are hundreds of other people who survived this attack what's going to happen to them where are they now. they are still the tension center we're discussing on possible solutions we have continuously called for 3rd countries safe safe countries to actually open up evacuation slots to take these people out of libya the most fun early refugees who are in need get trapped in detention centers to save countries

where they can have international protection and make their continue with their life at the moment vi is not considered a safe country for refugees there are greatly 1800 refugees who are trapped in the air yes on of conflict and where therefore asking the international community to help us to take them to safer locations but all of this is the same international community that has struck a deal with the government in tripoli to keep migrants in the bia and stop them from going to europe. well for us to leave yet is not a safe country of return we have been very clear about this point we continue to advocate for legal pathways that can enable refugees not to have to cross the sea not to risk their lives but to actually have a port tunis innervate killer manner where the most by a narrow can actually reach safe their countries and they can rebuild their lives they can have the future and they can forget about all the horrors that they have experienced being coming from a country at war and having to cross the journey in very dire conditions including

at the hands of smugglers ok. talking to us from tune is in tunisia she heads a the libya unit for u.n.h.c.r. thank you. it's to nigeria now we have protesters are demanding that a newly elected member of parliament step down after he allegedly physically abused a saleswoman 2 months ago in an adult stall in the capital of buddha video widely circulated on history shows senator. breaux 1st of all give the saleswomen and then 2nd i've. got an i don't have i don't want to summon the jedi the rest of the assaults of women after the incident the senator has told local media that the video was old and recorded before he took office last month. the video has sparked a debate in nigeria about politicians and their feeling often pain as he to get

closer to that i'm joined now by he says and we'll see from amnesty international in a butcher a welcome to the africa so we've seen a social media storm and spontaneous demonstrations and some people fear that they'll be no repercussions for the senate so will you face an investigation. well a lot of baldies including the most innocent really amounts that they're going to get but nigeria's have any confidence in investigations because they have only lead to justice they hardly lead to saw this issue so people are very skeptical about the effectiveness of such the investigation right ok so some of calling for for the same as a to be removed from office how easy is that to do well you know constitution has been difficult or unprove be jews who are moving here normally come a member of the national assembly so the possibility of them to be you can say you

see what absolute. ok i mean sir so you're just going back to the point that you made about you know these investigations that that sort of put together we know that for instance the senate president has said that he is concentrating an ad hoc committee to investigate the matter how widespread which is say is the problem of impunity in nigeria. well you don't some believe with impunity people sold more on the days of nudity live only in the ninety's. late eighty's and the impunity has continued actually some people as you. know and well. lifted by injustice injustice is inflicted on people they hardly get justice saw people in power and people close to people in power. behave with him punitive as it be here with impunity. when it

is said that the saleswoman who was assaulted in the video have you been in touch with her how is she. well because of the last nonparty interest in the case play to excel important we really are protecting because of the announcement of the investigation and the ears and into one or ready 2. but we are ought to know frame to get them and be up on items that to be what happened and to find out what is going on sure ready how to you know to see who has people and been very hot in nigeria and that it has a duty to you to shine on the big dig so i'm the. wrong to want to exploit that to the public ok it's a sign mosi isn't a budget talking for amnesty international thank you. today is international plastic bag free day and i bet it's
