proposed measures. i think it's safe to say that nobody wants them obvious reasons but the majority of people in germany do understand that it's vital to bring down the number of infections and to stop that fast spreading of the virus and as always the devil is in the detail and so people are beginning to discuss who is targeted and of course there's a lot of resistance especially from small businesses and by organizations that represent the pub and restaurant owners and the event industry and those people are saying that one 3rd of businesses in that area might have to close for good if they hit again with new restrictions and there was actually a big demonstration today in berlin where those people said that is not just because of the economic risk it's also that that current plan would be unfair because all those areas have hygiene concept in place that are working and that even scientists agree that people don't tend to catch the virus while i was in the restaurant and rather they catch it at home in their private circles now it never

really 30 seconds there's been a lot of criticism about parliament not having been sufficiently involved in all of this just a chance to have the authority to override the bundestag and the state premiers if she wants to see a national opt out she doesn't and for good reason those 16 individual states do have the final say when it comes to health matters also when it comes to other matters and that goes back to our country's history where of course rules were implemented to make sure that the government here in berlin doesn't have too much power which could ultimately be abused are you know hostage reporting for you thank you so much. i want to bring up to speed now with some of the other stories making news around the world as about john says an attack by armenian forces near the disputed region of nagorno-karabakh has killed at least 21 people and injured dozens more armenia denies carrying out these salt a cease fire that took effect just 2 days ago as so far failed to halt the conflict

wallace was armed at the time he was killed and you know people are talking about is police record and other crimes he's been accused of but what i'm not hearing is you know the offices were shot him are we hearing anything about their record do we know how many in the weeks we tell you that they've been accused and so that's the unfortunate paradigm we always after the victim will be blamed and we'll find anything from their life story to say they deserved it but we hear nothing about the police officers involved. very very important poignant point that you make are now people have been calling now for a long time for police to be reformed to be retrained i want to you know we are now in the final days to the run up to the election if any of the candidates do you have faith in one or the other will implement these changes and bring about reform within the police force. well i have 0 say

a free and fair election fair and square. voters see the 2 sides in starkly different terms signees didn't. know the roads well we see you can't guess if you know it was real down we see it and you can guess if you did these courses no receipt. something we're here because we are patriots and because we are tired of the oppression that is happening in our country. our country has a lot of resources which could make it rich but unfortunately our leaders have a lust for power and are denying us that it was telling that what. the government has limited the ability of international media to cover the election and tonight accreditation to international election observers. we want to take now to nairobi kenya where did you correspondent in this community is standing by you
4:18 pm
just tell us about how the election day went and what have you been hearing about the process in general. well in the early hours of voting things suddenly seemed to be fairly normal as normal as any other election day across the world and it was only later on in the day that we started receiving reports that some social media services particularly those focused on mass media messaging had been disrupted we're talking about what's up and twitter here and so that was the 1st indication that perhaps not everything was going as planned as the people were saying that they were using v.p.n. to communicate these messages and later on the opposition leader to do so would confirm this saying that not only were there disruptions to social media but he made claims that there were various irregularities at polling stations including agents from his party not being allowed into the polling stations and also that there was a vote stuffing i mean ballot stuffing he actually went to step further just a few hours ago and released a video purporting to show these votes being destroyed by his supporters
4:19 pm
opposition candidate to lease who has warned that if the election turns out to be rigged he won't accept the results so in your assessment is this a free and fair election. certainly not if you ask election observers they've been saying this long before d.-day came that the policies and frameworks governing tanzania do not allow for any free or fair democratic kind of voting and so that was the 1st. question mark raised by some of these observers some of whom are working virtually and then there is also the conversation i had earlier today with somebody from tanzania who said that they are fearful to even have public discourse between members of the public amongst private groups they cannot do that because this so afraid of the times and governmental clampdown and then when you look at what's been happening media stations have been top down because they're simply not agreeing with john paul the mughal fully you hear all opposition
4:20 pm
supporters being arrested to be chary because they're not in line with his government and so when you're talking about freedom and fairness that certainly doesn't seem to be the case in this election in the remaining 30 seconds that i have with do you covered the elections in tanzania back in 2015 how does local foods popularity compared from then till now. it's really hard to say because as i mentioned the opposition is very much. a very tough iron fist but if we're going by what we're hearing so fight would seem that his popularity is definitely decreasing but in 10 to 15 it was so much more about the party rather than the candidates and this year there's been a sharp focus on mughal fully this kamandi reporting from there will be kenya thank you. as the cannes film festival but not as we know it a very different version of the famous french celebration of cinema got underway on tuesday the may festival earlier this year was to muscle due to the pandemic the
