her through student school in the jungle. first clueless. and then the doors grand moment to run and join the arena tank on her journey. you know were intrigued you don't remember the torah entering into returns home. this is africa coming up on the show arrested without notice and now the taint of what i was being. pressed against journalist eric there are still behind bars one week after he was seized by the police talk to the committee to protect journalists about his kids also coming up. what has fashion got to do with an all inclusive society check out the story of a young kenyan student using fashions just that and taking it all. in northern north along. the way to how.

it's great to have you with us on the show now just a week ago investigative journalist eric bear out was arrested by police in tanzania since then his team after a man that he should be charged or released on bail but authorities did the opposite has now been charged with offenses so serious that he's not eligible for bail outs all this is how we got here. why did the police arrest eric up and down at his home in dar es salaam a week ago tons in the end officials responded to that question with a clear statement he had not been on sitting there questions i set. up

with the police he was not a mandate to arrest all detain anyone several times we respectfully asked him to report to the police station but he seemed to be ignoring our son through the mandate we have we have decided to arrest him for failing to apply you have police order to find you. know of the seat is a different one cab and you are stands accused of assisting a criminal record tax evasion and money laundering his fellow tanzania. there are the reasons behind the rest of the prize winning journalist. of the whatever the police force wants to arrest you for anything they need to clearly explain to you the reasons for your arrest and also the police need to inform your neighbors and family about your arrest but this is something which our police force did not do when arresting cop and there are. local media report that cub and us 80 year old mother has pleaded with authorities to lose her son human rights organizations say

his detention is another attack on press freedom in tanzania. i'm joined now by more from the committee to protect journalists she's the pj's representative for sub-saharan africa and joins us now from nairobi welcome to the program so i 1st allegedly failed to report to the police then they questioned his citizenship and now he has been charged with organized crime and financial offenses have you presented any credible evidence. so since last monday we've a lot of a lot of mixed messages coming from the authorities about why exactly they've been erected governor and use that they initially claimed that they were investigating that the 2 men shipman tried the claimed that he had refused to respond to 20 someone's how about what sources indicate that there was no such police ambulance will have been there yet the day he was worked quite and the prosecuted charged him

with a comical crime we have not seen the evidence of what crimes you say he has committed so that have yet to come. in addition to that we must know that the crimes for which it is charged particularly money laundering is not an offense for which you can get bail in tanzania so there is a plurality of carbon there are remain in jail for the generation of the trial but we have not seen that that the government is evidence that the government is basing their charges on ok what about. what about his legal counsel what are they saying his legal counsel has come out quite sure vocally about what's happening with cabinet i threw out all of this strong team got his put together by a question of human rights defendants yesterday we saw one of his lawyers coming out and publicly stating that for the past one week have been there has actually

not been interrogated for the charges which the alternatives have now brought forward so the law is said he was a little bit confused about where these charges were coming from the lawyer was also categorical in stating that he believes that have been there was history of journalism is what has brought him here in other words that the charges might be in the right that these charges might be in retaliation for his critical so so is this simply another attack on press freedom in tanzania or is there more to it i would object to the use of what simply just because every single attack we've seen on press freedom in tanzania is great news and is concerned it's all into its own weight. having said that we have seen a history old press freedom attack sometimes in the uk for the last few years. have included media shutdowns and suspension the use of restrictive legislation and it was still called the full answers to what happens to

a journalist who disappeared in trying to maintain i've always wondered ok so in a wave both cases very unique. point 0 you think we're going to turn of a wider impact in the caribbean attacks on the press and attacks on them it's been conned anea ok thanks for the question will keep more from the committee to protect journalist thanks for your time. let's head to south sudan now a country which has only existed for 80 as making it the well to youngest country but since become an independent in 2011 a young nation has seen 5 years of fighting that was supposed to come to an end when the warring parties in the country struck in peace deal in september last year the talks by rebels in the south continue attempts of the arguments have yet to be met south sudan is still waiting for a unity government. it's still early when the convoy leaves the safety of the base

the un peacekeepers are here to help stabilize south sudan ravaged by years of brutal civil war. but as the convoy heads from the capital juba to the southern town of jay the road is littered with evidence of violent lawlessness burned out cars scattered clothing discarded boots despite a cease fire between the government and the rebels armed groups harassed and robbed the civilians in the area local government officials are powerless to intervene. to get to see them. but these are life just under the market and the good deceiving that is i think this is the most ruthless gentleness. the conflict that broke out in 2013 pitted president salva kiir against then vice president react. the war killed as many as 400000 people over 4000000 people have been displaced half of them fled to neighboring countries such as

uganda or sudan the deal struck last year has halted major hostilities according to the un refugees are beginning to trickle back across the border. coming back. we see movement back into the villages but we're just still have many many houses in the city richard. but only a lasting peace will allow south sudan to put violence and destruction behind it i'm not. we need this peace to prevail especially as we women are the ones suffering carrying children why yet cooking for children we have my schools for children. with nothing. with the peace process stalling it might be some time before the people here can begin to rebuild their lives.

now let's talk about fashion precisely about to fashion stories about. it 21 year old fashionista down from kenya hair collection includes incorporates in braille and tactile design in the fabric to make it easy for visually impaired presence to appreciates that designs most importantly she aims to help create an all inclusive society through fashion reports are you that the money sets more lights on her work it's a fashion design studio like you haven't seen. here the creators are engineers and tech gurus make a space in kenya's capital nairobi is the incubation lab where angelo engineer who conceived of and created he seek a fashion brand that rematch in style for the blind and visually impaired i said thinking about how my skills my training field day was still would apply within

which could mean 80 so i say broke down the people had interacted with my every move i had my interaction with division in fact and the question that came up for me is how did they get updates what i love but especially. the 1st challenge was to make the collection as sensory as possible the design is tactile and includes phrases in real then there's the bags inspired by gun hole stoves so how does it work how. you would look and i should. have so much time to get it but that could shock you like the junk huge wheel. was. moving was so it's really snug gets to the idea and just to go. with that just it for you ok

so it be like that right there so the bags are designed to make it harder to steal from the blind and visually impaired who are often victims of pickpocketing in the city's. finally all tags feature a q.r. code that can be read on any smartphone to give a detailed description of the items. real pretty well let's see with our eyes off with our. the on or collection ultimately gives angela's clients more independence when it comes to their fashion choices and choice is in short supply for the blind and visually impaired in kenya with buzzing cities designed by and for able bodied people doing the simplest tasks like crossing the road can prove difficult for the blind. i'm curious though how much of a difference the collection makes for the intended clients so angela takes us to the kenya society for the blind where dennis will try one of the t.
