to pay the price for defying state authority the blogger been took this video from a hospital. it seems to show body bags victims of the virus then he received a menacing knock on his door. what did you want to. do you think you'll be you know what do you want to. know what do you like the other night that. you would you go by. email in the. firing had been posting videos daily proof that he was free those upload stopped on monday and he's been on reachable by phone fueling speculation over the rest. of the virus in december authorities accused him and several others of severely disturbing the social order he's dead one of the more than 1000 people in china to

succumb to corona virus so far mourning and i have marked his passing online and off in defiance of the state's threats pressure is mounting on chinese authorities to come clean on what's happening in. and that includes wanting to know what's happened to people like to intro and find bin. general gender issues whereabouts remain uncertain his twitter account remains active there are daily tweets drawing attention to his disappearance one tweet explains that since he gave all his passwords to his friends overseas his social media accounts are still active an act of caution in case he got arrested his disappearance has prompted the committee to protect journalists to demand that chinese authorities immediately account for his whereabouts so that coverage of the corona virus outbreak can proceed without fear of retribution and executive director of human rights watch kenneth roth summed up

john of the sponsors to non-state approved messaging on the coronavirus outbreak as shoot the messenger mentality where any criticism is taken as a rebuke of political leaders and silenced and if you'd like to keep up with the latest developments on the corona virus outbreak head over to our twitter page at d w news here you can find the latest stories advice and information on what's turning out to be an unprecedented global challenge. to pakistan where the alleged mastermind of the 2008. office has been sentenced to 11 years in prison a court in lahore found him guilty of raising money for an alleged terrorist organization he's been sentenced in $2.00 cases of terror financing to 5 and a half years in prison each the prison term will run concurrently so even the

founder of the last group or butter group blamed by the united states and india for 40 of them by siege in 2008 in which 160 people were killed so he has denied any involvement. for more i'm going to show their jilani from a deed. so is it good to see you lots to talk about but 1st give us a bit of a background of who so you know exactly is. so hard to say this is a 70 year old man he presented himself as a professor as a humanitarian and geraghty worker in the last few years that i was reporting from pakistan every time there was a natural disaster and earthquake or a flood i found his organization and his people were among the 1st responders and that was because david facilitated by the pakistani army he's seen as a strategic asset by the army he moves around in high level security this is until he was arrested last year and he's somebody who the pakistani army has really taken

care of despite allegations that he was launching attacks in kashmir and in india. he's india's enemy number one because of the mumbai attacks that you mentioned and the u.s. has also declared him and his organization as a global terrorist so a man backed by the army now sentenced to prison quite significant. significant because of its timing because pakistan is under severe pressure by the international and watchdogs on money laundering and terror financing the financial action task force f.e.t.s. they are meeting in the next few days in paris to look at pakistan they've already put boxed on in a great list of the the so-called great less means bogs down is not meeting its commitment box that is keen to show that it is serious about cracking down on militancy and terrified and saying and money laundering so the timing is significant bugs down we'll go to this meeting saying look we are taking action

against people you've been pointing out but he has been arrested before many times before in mumbai case and other cases but each time he's been let off the hook boxed on and said we couldn't find enough evidence to try him in this case as well he will go into appeal he's going to appeal but what does this mean potentially for india relations with india as you mentioned earlier is a most wanted man in india because of the mumbai terror attacks. but obviously india will be cynical about this given the history he could go about his business desk despite pakistan's political leadership saying that we cannot afford these kind of people we have to put a stop to this but there was always a disagreement between the civilian leadership and the military so india will be watching this they will be skeptical and clearly pakistan needs to do more to convince the world that this cannot go on so they have done it thanks very much for that it's the sweetest a victory for

a regional party and in just capital delhi after came out on top in a local election the aam aadmi a common run party defeated prime minister narendra modi's b j p in an election contest seen as a referendum on some of more these controversial policies. the b.g.p. attempted to rally support for a nationwide citizenship law but has been criticized for being non-circular and divisive along religious lines the aam aadmi party or the e.p.a. on the other hand focused on very local issues such as education and health care. as a result of an kids year old secured a 3rd term as chief minister of delhi but the victory for the a.a.p. does not sound a death knell for the b.g.p. across india you know look at us on and then we should just fall has more from demi despite a particularly divisive and high octane campaign nearing the more the is the party a jump up party has just lost an important local election i have with me political analysts are mr delhi just overwhelmingly wardak for the b.g.p.

in general elections less than a year ago what does this defeat mean well i think you know one thing we have to understand is that this was a state election in 2019 and me that was a looks a by election where the main issue was where the people wanted that into modi back as prime minister or not in delhi it became whether people wanted back as chief minister or not and i think the the board reflects that people did want advantage of his chief minister and i think this is because the beach if he did not have a challenger to him in delhi you know they actually it's the union home minister who led the campaign and people knew that he was not going to be the chief minister of egypt he didn't have a face so there was a blank i think today and in fact if you talk to people across stanley they'll still tell you that prime minister we've won that in the modi but at the state level the chief minister we want i've been cagey about and does this last still have implications for the ruling the chip be at the center anyway well

a lot depends on you see the ruling b.g.p. not in the mode the government is here to stay for the next 4 years they have an overwhelming majority in parliament so there's nobody who can dislodge them but. what happens is that a whole rash of state assembly elections coming up and the b.g.p. recently we've seen in the last one yeah they've been losing state after state after state after state if this kind of luck continues for the b.g.p. that they lose small states it's going to become very difficult for the net interim government to implement its policies its schemes its laws and so on because we are at the end of the day a federal polity and you know every central government needs a cooperation of state governments for implementation of whatever as it does for the central you know we have seen so much opposition coming from states that new citizenship law some state assemblies have passed you know on

a resolution supposing it and if the government wants to implement this you know odd if they want to compile a national population register which is a current exercise under way and some state governments have refused to cooperate with them they have the if the state machinery has to get involved in the compilation of that register so if you don't have state governments with you either you know on your own governments and states all state governments that have a duty to cooperate with you on your you know your schemes and you know your decisions it's going to be very difficult for her in the more detailed run administrator to run a government and provide good governance. down to the rich suffering director of long term who made history with us from spot a site which became the 1st known in the field during the 1st best picture at the oscars when even i would images of the cast and crews return home and i start over .
