4:06 pm
a separate is the support has been dispersed and also has been will be targeted skulls of villages have been bent down people have been killed and so have been beheaded this is not a huge trend the stories we've seen in up report is not just something that's happening does just that a company not something as completely last 3 years is going to start and businesses here on ginny's the economy has crippled totally and this conflict has brought a rise of armed groups that are not and this is really a suspicion east but these are criminal and groups who are involved in extortion in kidnapping and also in killing so people here and no free to go about their business is people who cannot go out and you won't because the police is not secured and security is not guaranteed. there was a place in the coming in city of way some breaking news now we're getting reports that saddam's transitional government and rebel groups have agreed to hand over former president bashir to the international criminal court in the hague i.c.c.
4:07 pm
wants to try al bashir on charges of crimes against humanity and genocide we get more from v.w. before i welcome i'll. explain the significance of this stuff well this is actually ends up happening is nothing short of historically heard today from a member of sudan's sovereign council which during its transitional period after the overthrowing of a lot of bashir is in charge of the country saying that they are now ready to hand over many people that are wanted by the i.c.c. for crimes against humanity for now this includes he didn't name the former president by name but it is the 3 people are former president bashir and 2 other top officials in his in his former government this would be nothing short of historic this has been a long demand of the i.c.c. as well as the community in darfur but you know it's not as simple as just handing him over to the court overnight 1st of all sudan has yet to ratify the rome statute
4:08 pm
of the i.c.c. so we need to do that 1st for you don't have actually a member of the court as such no it has not it is not ratified and not unsurprisingly under the sheer he would not ratify such would that would bring him to justice for crimes were both this but this would be such a vindication for the victims you know i was in there for 2 years ago and even decades after this fighting the level of devastation is not something that anyone can imagine these people are living without nothing and up until today there was no sign that they would get the justice from them and that they see is the cause of this injustice so if this happens and as you say there's a there's a road there's a long road yet but if these happens if there's this transitional government is saying this that's a big. it is it would be seen as a major win for the transitional government the so-called you know sudan is a country that has suffered from internal conflict for decades and this transitional government has made it its utmost task to end these conflicts so if
4:09 pm
this does happen this will ease the door for rebels it will send a positive signal to the other rebel groups that the government is currently in negotiation with however this also you know this puts the transitional government in a kind of awkward position this is a power sharing agreement between former and between military leaders many of whom are former allies of the shia while they are not themselves wanted by the i.c.c. and many of them are complicit in these crimes so this is likely to also make them quite nervous i can think of at least 2 senior members of the sovereign counsels who are from the military that have a connection with these crimes that were committed in darfur. thank you chris. we'll take a look now at some of the other stories making news around the world at least 6 people have been killed in a suicide bombing in the afghan capital kabul the blast at the entrance to a military academy and the recent low in violence as the u.s. pursues talks with the taliban to finalize

4:14 pm
party throws a field of potential chance of a candidate it's wide open but finding a successor will be a major challenge at the country's political crisis comes as the rest of your looks to berlin for stability through the post breath era to get more on this from d w said chief political editor became. a welcome michela. tiling is all here isn't it that the c.d.u. doesn't expect to choose a new party leader quickly so how is this delay and uncertainty going to affect it . well it does throw the party into a major crisis along a road that angle america had hoped would be a lot more stable that's why she in this impact and it takes just over a year ago to become the party leader of a chief it failed to establish all sorts which came to a head last week when she simply couldn't convince regional party employees of the
4:15 pm
gravity of what had happened when they had found themselves on the same political side as the far right if the party and couldn't get them to toe the party line so this also has an effect of course on uncle americal because with that there is a certain loss of authority for her as well as european crisis how big is the danger of what you think well it is a crisis within the christian democrats there's no doubt about it but now our concern of course is that we keep going as a government and i mean we've seen rough times social democrats and we've proved that this is possible because we we were a very stable partner in the coalition in the government and this government worked extremely well during the last months so you think stability can prevail even though the christian democrats seem to tear themselves apart very similar to like you say what happened to in your own party is there a bit of shock in florida no there's no certain financial because i mean germany
4:16 pm
will take over the presidency of the council in the 2nd half of this year so we are aware of the responsibility that we're having so. we we actually ask our partner now to share the same responsibility that we have shown because europe is looking at looking towards germany. i mean you know bali talking to barbara faisal back to mccain kaufman how much does this crisis within the senior partner in germany's governing coalition touch the actual government and indeed opposed bread sitting here. well that depends very much on the coming weeks the knives are certainly out come come by the party leader who says he will stay until there is an alternative candidate who could also then become candidate for chance so this is all kind of inside party dealings but if this really brings the so-called grand coalition with the social democrats yes to another crisis point this would be
4:17 pm
perceived as a complete disaster for all sides at the same time as we've just heard from qatar you know bali and i must say that i did sense a bit of saddam ford on the side of the social democrats here in berlin the social democrats looking at the polling right now would be absolutely crushed if there were fresh elections so don't they don't really have any reason to make life under mackle more difficult and america will do everything she can to keep this coalition going the signs aren't terribly bad but in terms of the party reinventing itself and germany coming out at the end of this with a real innovator in terms of a conservative c.d.u. party here in germany that has just become a bit less likely and i'm going to machall as guarantor for stability stands and there's still more and more question marks over what could possibly come after the era medical chief political editor because the thank you. after battering northern

4:20 pm
a significant appointment for had to have a new big money backers and were hoping to turn the side into one does league title challengers but they have won only one of their last 5 league games i had to confirm the news an hour after twins win posted his resignation on facebook. i don't expect from d.w. sports can tell us more welcome yannick young players but of course a big name in football this is a bad look for hat and indeed lofty ambitions yeah it's very bad to be honest it's pretty embarrassing for the club has had no idea that this was coming klinsmann blindsided them by announcing this on facebook without consulting them it seems and opposes big questions about the club's management and also structures in place klinsmann was 1st brought to the club back in november to sit on the club's advisory board and that was reportedly at the request of the club's biggest investor and then 2 weeks later he was brought in to coach the team when there was
4:21 pm
found themselves in a bad position and so now they spend some time with him. which players you want to spend $80000000.00 euros on players that he wanted to bring in and now 10 weeks later he's just left them jump ship without any notice and it's a bit of a circus to be honest ok so what is each side saying so klinsmann himself was quite pointed in a little bit of criticism of towards the club he said that he needed the trust of all people involved and that unity team spirit and focus on the basics won't guarantee that the club which meant that he wasn't be able to fulfil his potential as a. coach now that sounds as a criticism which you can take it as one but it also sounds as if he's passing the buck a little bit i think he's pap's found himself a bit out of depth at the club he's not a world class coach he was sacked almost a decade ago he was sacked by the u.s. national same and even his time at the german national team in 2006 most people required regard as being the brains behind that. pets of that they're all to look
4:22 pm
to their credit they couldn't really do much they didn't know this was coming so all they have said is was shocked by this was sad to see him go and will release another statement you know when we have time to take stock ok so where does this leave in a pretty pretty tough position to be honest 1st there's the question of what do they do with your going klinsmann he said in his statement that he expects now to go back to sitting on the advisory board that sounds a bit farfetched to me given the way he is results right now. there are a lot of trouble on the field they in a relegation battle they're only 6 points off the bottom 3 spots they've just lost to mind next up they have what is that powder born cologne and all clubs in the relegation you know battle as well so if they don't pick up a couple of wins in those games they're looking at a disastrous relegation this is a club that has begin missions they want to be in the top 4 playing champions league they want to eventually challenge for the bonus they get title but there has to be a bit of a reality check for them that they're not ready and they need better structures in
