hide and go friendly africa. in 60 minutes w. and on demand. language courses. and order. media center. this is news africa coming up on the program it was the turning point of sudan's revolution last year when june said tweens are 19. against peaceful protesters now a new report sheds light on alleged atrocities carried out by the sudanese security forces during the time also coming out. to africa on an

equal footing with you that's what european union says it is funding issue factory in ethiopia the right way to go. the original african series on netflix us just been released around the world so why is this such a big deal we'll talk to the creates out of the south africans 5 drama. and you're welcome to the program talk shop rape and excessive use of force these are just some of the allegations leveled at saddam's security forces and the new reports by u.s. based ngo physicians for human rights the group has been investigating the massacre of peaceful demonstrators in the capital how to set last year. the security forces

used extreme violence to disperse he said 10 protesting against the military governments that took over after the ousting of dictator a so more than $240.00 people were killed and many more injured the report details the alleged abuses and says the actions where premeditated let's go talk to the end freaky physicians for human rights experts consultant and lead author author reports hello again nice to have you on board so are you saying that the attack on sudan's pro-democracy supporters was all planned the by the security forces tell us mall well in order for thousands of troops in uniform carrying with sticks the times and guns to converge in one small area from different sides it requires a fairly high level of logistical planning. well there are many questions that need to be answered on the ground in sudan i think that no one argues with the fact that

organization is required to move that many humans in quarter nation into one space ok so how did you arrive are these findings well the findings were based on a wide range of research but the most critical is that of interviews with survivors of the violence on june 3rd as well as treating physicians who describe not only the injuries but also the special animus that they were subjected to by the attackers many of whom said things like you doctors are the reason that people are dying and you are the reason that we kill it's also notable that many hospitals were attacked and that keesha ends and injured people were unable to access care from that day that this is a very sales reset for sure as the government began and it sounds respond to all have they responded in any way. the government has received the report the

ministry of justice and the attorney general as well as of course the commission. and they have confirmed receipt of the records and they have emphasized that the commission's mandy has been extended and will be fully supported so here's the thing most of the time such reports come out a lot of research goes into words and then such findings are released but no replications what are the possible repercussions well that's what such a great question i think one important fact is that the national commission is fully owned by the transitional government in sudan and our report is really to support its work so it's a critical part of the negotiated transition so i think it's likely to require political action the other important thing to realize is that history has taught us that transitional justice does not succeed without accountability so

what's the way forward from here. the way forward is to develop and strength and the human rights mechanisms that are already in place in sudan which is a country full of immense human talents and very talented lawyers and committed human rights activists as well as a mobilized 1000000 base and i hear that within the international community we have to support that ok freaky physicians for human rights experts consultants' underneath all thought the report thank you thank you. an equal partnership with the african continent that's what european union top officials say aiming for however the use spends billions of euros on development aid in africa mainly to prevent people from migrants into europe but is this the way to go and went to an e.u. funded shoe factory in ethiopia as capital adisa babba. it has taken him

5 years to find a stop in at his about good tasha memo says he appreciates his work here at the l.a. call of a shoe factory by the dest mean he'll stay here forever. in the city you know you chime happy to work in my country if i have a good opportunity of prague i'd also migrate with mr did you know. this no the shoe factory is funded by the european union it is a proud sect aimed at stemming irregular migration in ethiopia more than $100.00 jobs were created here mainly for young women and the chinese like free what mcconnell who came back from dubai 3 years ago because she could make a living there she now wants to stay in at is about let's see the way i want to develop my skills in this profession the pay shear is not enough i ope i will earn more if i get better as

a job. here the employees here get some benefits like free transportation but they only earn about 530 year or so year less than the average income of about $700.00 in 10 years the year according to the world bank. on this day the stuff years welcoming us special guest the higher percentage is paying them a visit he tells us that you can't accept irregular migration and has to help countries like. one of the world's poorest countries so citizens can find work here . krishna said more satisfied people are here the less likely they are to travel to europe what else should we propose should we leave them in poverty to stop them from traveling you know. programs like the lever factory and i just a funded by the e.u. emergency trust fund for africa before point 7000000000 package the e.u. commission introduced as

a reaction to the 2015 so-called migration crisis. this stunt also pays for example for the controversial coast guard and other bloated controllers. in the last few years the trend we're seeing in the way that europe is using its development aid is less and less to support the type of project work for people in africa and more and more to promote its own objectives here in europe mainly stopping migration towards your. book which it's like she's not saying that instead of trying to stop migration no matter the cost for african countries and you just start having a conversation about how to create great the mobility channels that can benefit both sides. now you've not seen this before a series on stream that flicks set in africa fully scripted and produced in africa with all african cast it's happening netflix just launched queen south africa

actress to see stars as the spy queen sonal who uses unconventional methods to get the job done and constantly bottles with some family drama the same time on netflix hopes the african production has the success or the recipe for success. is the creator produced. the fast african series on netflix so great to have you here now 1st tell us how this. began. well thank you for having me yeah well i we made a full we an independently produced film that ended up on the plot home and it did well so when we proposed a t.v. show it would look into kind of end topic and a more serious way i guess then meant as an event because that story kind of had this contemporary african narrative that i guess was attractive and kind of had

worked around the you know so why is it so important to celebrate as series made in africa by africans showing on a platform night like methinks i mean i think form the longest of time if not forever we've kind of only been told african stories by people outside of africa so it's quite it's great it's a quite an honor to be able to tell an opera story from africa with africans as the primary audience you know. in and you know we're looking at social media and looking at some of the responses over the past few days as the shows come out you can almost see is like there's a there's a you know i feel like there's a movement that people are kind of growing through where they are finally being represented and seeing themselves on screen here in their music here in their sort of colloquial tongues it's yeah it's very exciting so so with this particular

series what really went into creating it cocked like rain so no. i mean we're going with the actress pull to see who is also in the film that we had done before that catching feelings we got to put what we want to just live video of her doing physical stunts you know she did quite some stunts for a universal pictures film that was a straight to video thing and i'm going to excited by that and we both muslim my partner wanted to know what we could do with her next and what she was looking to do next and that was what she wanted to be she wanted to do a physical sort of to moderate and not a cross thing but i'm a very much a yeah i'm i'm very much as flies on rock fan and i convinced all both of them not you know can we do something more spies shondra because also we come from a satire background we do you know news satire political satire and pay spy john brown lent itself to that a lot more quickly before you go what message are you conveying with the series

quickly i mean look at the middle so 1st of all it's a piece of into 10 we really want to have fun but also what i like is not africans are seeing the f.b.i. agents so for me it's very important to know that because not just a bunch of kids covered in flies and people in the world tones done it's also cities it's also people looking for a better life i've connection and you know just living their life every day making love and families and grandmothers and so on and so forth and we also just love and to taman it said we like the one place we have a great story and such great entertainment but our narrative has always been a sort of a negative nature so it's finally you know i'm decided that it's finally coming to an end ok i'm sure yes like you a lot of africans are that i excited. creates embodies o'quinn sonal thank you very much for your time thank you very much. fix i think that's it for now
