the usaa is great. i heard this news yesterday, probably like everybody and you know, my always say that i have to follow the rules and where i can play. i'm going to play. i'm going to try to play my best. i'm happy that i will be able to defend my thought though it would be really disappointed if i would not be able to defend my title and use open. and that is all the news, the now i'm anthony, how they'll have more news headlines for you at the top of the outdoor film as next . stay with them and have a good 175 years ago. start up entrepreneur had a specific goal. 1 build the best optical instruments in the world. good size.

indeed, his wish has become a reality. 175 years of size starts june 19th on w. ah. february 2021. a cargo ship was on its way to hamburg. dutch investigators had their eye on 5 containers, the suspected cocaine smuggling, the other 2 german customs officials who took the containers to a special facility and ex read them one of them contained cans of building material hidden inside hundreds of packages of cocaine, a total of 16 tons, it was the largest hall ever found in europe, mississippi to many or at least $17000000.00 euros in advance. payments must have been made for the cocaine and south america on the trail led to paraguay of front company had been formed there to allow the traffickers to package and ship the cocaine undisturbed. a scheme that was worth the effort the either the pure product

has a street value of over 1000000000 euros equal. in most cases, the cocaine is thin down to make 3 times as much. so a 17000000 euro investment could have become 3000000000 and profit. such margins make drug trafficking. the most important area of organized crime around the world . investigator scrambled to keep up while year after year estimated drug sales increase. organized crime has become a multi $1000000000.00 industry over time in ways that perhaps was unthinkable. 4050 years ago. the prophets can be used to buy weapons, bribe politicians, and financed terrorism. every time somebody thinks that there's nothing wrong in snorting a line of okay. at a saturday night party your funding death in central america, in brazil,

and ultimately in the middle east. ah. in october 2018 chief prosecutor of us gun sona was preparing to clamp down on organized crime. in hamburg. he wanted to break up a ring of cannabis dealers. today, i just want the offices for being brief that miss someone realized that of all things. it was the day of the hamburg derby game hum, boob against. and polly holy. the soccer match would be occupying too many officers so arresting the dealers was postponed. surveillance continued when we hoped our on the cover work might lead us to catching a deal. as it happened under surveillance, the suspects rented a white van. as the sun didn't diva,

we assumed the van meant that a few boxes of marijuana it become how tomsman my yahoo. com. the plan was to immediately arrest anyone putting anything into the van. the 1st day, the van drove to a port terminal. several men got out. they were interested in one specific container. defy hunt, the electronic shipping documents to supplement the new which contain a number after how did the men get such precise information efficient as j. o, you know, port workers are paid mid 5 figure sums for this onward or ask again because it's no help if the container with traffic good is on top of 2 others. and no one can reach. and i don't know when a truck picked up the container, the suspects followed in their white van. outfitted like the police deanna had handcuffs. they had police equipment like a blue light and a signaling one to flack. some $1000.00 investigators followed the truck and the van south of hamburg. they both turned and drove back towards the city. the police

tried to figure out why don't log on to the determined that a driver swap had apparently taken place. that caused a stir amongst the investigators. the all, theo, the truck had apparently been hijacked. a police helicopter tracked the convoy back to the port with a truck was unloaded. so they watched for a while, and then the guy, the go ahead him a mobile unit, arrested. several suspects who had re packed hundreds of packages from the high jack truck into bags. inside was cocaine, a total of $1100.00 kilos. some of the arrested suspects who operated with police. they claimed to have been hired specially for this operation. if their clients couldn't get the cocaine any other way, they were to hijack the truck and the container. they were plan

b was it's an indian without doing anything. they would have each cotton, $10000.00 euros according to their own state level. you'd have become authorities also arrested the leader, one of the heads of hamburg. hell's angels? this job though, was organized independently of the bikers. he was sentenced to 10 years in prison. in court, he admitted to hijacking the truck, but kept silent about whom he was working for by it's no suspect would give information about the others involved. i think those the investigators hadn't found . there's another structure that we couldn't uncover it. adequate. professional criminal structures often remain shadowy. they divide up their labor and quickly adapt to new situations. many others often form fillings, all of us. he goes in for bmo, in dubuque, and from to or everything that constitutes a major problem in the fight against organized crime can be summed up,

is this side. there's a big misunderstanding among the public and politicians about the dimension of organized crime home. i am political enough with hardly any politician and the german bonus talk as aware that we're talking about 4 to 5000 organized crime groups in europe. jets would be scotty on. hm. in germany, the focus on organized crime, mostly spotlight, so called clans. often groups of arab descent does august finish and or disorders. it's obvious that the only reason the political debate is dominated by so called klan crime is because they are among the dumber of these groups. elegant demo and co p o on her name is today. the ones that cause trouble on the streets often see does yeah in it i'm not of i n v i see it in our own ranks in got so much personnel to we have to put into raids and then afterwards into examining suspects mobile devices. and so i don't want to lie to you 90 sticking most of the on dozens. i. meanwhile, it's highly likely that the more professional organized crime groups are laughing

themselves to sleep. it can no dis being fall because they then continue to fly under the radar button. won't i didn't hot ob line the really big fish only find themselves in the spotlight when they murder people like induced pork in 2007. when 6 mafioso were killed is an image of such trends is off to put it bluntly as i can tell, it only gets public attention when there are dead bodies in the streets. even guzman, like we hadn't lewisburg a few years ago in john hutton, in may 2019, an unknown perpetrator shot 2 men in a house. in the small town of faust, near the eastern german city of cut bush in the public sphere, the case went nearly unnoticed. the victims were 2 members of a drug gang from montenegro. police quickly determined the attack was carried out by a professional killer. the victims gang was engaged in bitter fighting with another balkan clan over market share. there were deaths in amsterdam, in malaga,

in athens, and especially in the balkans maybe i looked young with thick, so hm. pretty pretty long it is job and actually felt years in investigatory reporting, he shows as a crime scene and serbia, the man killed here was a member of one of the feuding drug plans. originally from the town of co. tor in montenegro footage shows the man driving into a garage to men appear and open fire. sitting next to the vic was a policewoman who wasn't injured. even serbian police are also entangled in the gang war. we are in voucher, it's part of the bell. great. a lot of mergers of martin what is to place recently here it is because it's very rich area in lexmark members buying real estate here,

organized crime spread rapidly in serbia after the collapse of the eastern bloc. our 1st necrotic leader to one of the men who actually took down below sewage was killed, doesn't tree by organized crime group, the gang little smuggling drugs team up with the parts of the secret service. the kill him. this like a shot. this shows the power of the organ, his crime. vir years stretchy novick, and his team of journalists have tried to shed light on serbia's criminal underworld, including the current gang war. at least 50 people that we know for sure that they're killed is connected to this verse of this gangs. the feud began over a drug shipment. one gang accused the other of stealing cocaine. the amount was comparatively small, that he got in fights for $200.00 kilos. of cocaine to con the killers, really for balkan terms of dis, gangs look much drugs, gangs,

or fixtures of the global cocaine trade. they hire professionals, hit men. these gangs have some people who provide the for them some like really perfect silicon masks which when you put on yourself, you really cannot recognize as a message. so they look like human face. they're not even afraid if the camera capture them when to commit murder because they get people police confused. the balkan mafia also gets its cocaine direct from south america. in june, 2019 yearly, 20 tons were seized in philadelphia. the group from montenegro had bought the drugs from a south american cartel. they don't really care much about suits level distribution . they just sell big amounts of drugs to another european against these balkan godfathers don't just export large amounts of cocaine. they trade in killing to vienna 2018 just before christmas. a contract killer ambushed 2 men. as

they left a restaurant. one died, the other was seriously injured. the men belong to a hostile serbian drug plan. once again, the perpetrator left no trace. 3 years later, the vienna murders have still not been solved and the killing continues. specialists from the united nations are headquartered in vienna. what makes the cartels so dangerous and powerful is something italian under the may, has spent years analyzing. one advantage is that they have no accountability, so governments are comfortable with people and so they have to operate according to set a time that they don't have those funding. so they can operator without a asking permission or they use them any kind of met on the not only violence i, but also be we how they control allah, their territory exciter that makes them stronger and there is no, no government can beat them that the united states has certainly tried beginning

with richard nixon in 1971. we must wait what i have called total war against public enemy. number one in the united states. problem, dangerous drums. the superpower went to war with drug cartels. one battle ground was columbia. the us sent soldiers and money dealers were hunted down. cocoa fields, poisoned crops, burned, but even 50 years of fighting couldn't hurt business drag, so remain than most profitable are ellison mark as for organized crime. and by far, the one that really produce most of the profit for organized crime, organized crime has an annual turnover of up to 2 trillion dollars. drug trafficking alone brings in up to 700000000000 dollars each year. us authorities, record hundreds of boats bringing cocaine from columbia to mexico. from there,

the product to smuggled into the united states, the world's biggest market. cocaine has changed mexico the beginning, when the government yet tried to address bay shore on trafficking and they'll be organized crime. then the violence exploded. pressure from the mexican government has had unfortunate consequences. that the disruption then had reducing the amount of cocaine that was transferring from mexico. and so they created an tension within the group because they were fighting for a smaller piece of the cake. mexico was really peter highest price in terms of violence. for years it's been mainly civilians paying that price. like in the province of vera cruz since 2727 journalists have been murdered here they had reported on the crimes of cartels

and corrupt politicians. one of them was maria elaina, set out her daughter fernanda grew up amid danger. yours is a good thing all the 1st time it happened. i was sinks, my mother was being threatened. and since then, we always had bodyguard law when we had body gods for 14 years. she always prepared me for the day when something might happen to her. what is the annual it by sarah? despite the threats her mother spoke out against a corrupt and influential local politician. in march 2020, she was shot in front of her car. the subsequent protests fell on deaf ears. once more, fernando was protected by body guards. she wants to continue her mother's work. complet them and they took me away from my home and from the things that with many

a to me that they took me from my work, the place where i spent most of my life. it had a huge impact on me because now i'm not even allowed to say where i am was like, i can't do anything here. and i can't work as a journalist anymore. but at least when fernanda and her brother visited their old home killers were waiting for them. joe, in yellow notice when i was on my way back from atlanta. and i had gone that because it was my mother's birthday the day before. and i wanted to visit her in the cemetery, only coming in, they suddenly a pickup truck closed in on the car, and they started shooting at us. but i didn't see anything after that, because my body guards were covering me now that tara, she continues to live in fear. those who ordered her mother's murder have not been caught. in the summer of 2021. fernando ran for parliament and mexico and has raised awareness for the families of murder victims. since 2006,

125000 people have died in mexico's drug war drugs are smuggled from south america, directly to the u. s. and europe, but also to west africa. modeling is an important transit hub. here un troops try to push back islamist militias. but those militias are growing increasingly powerful because they make money from cocaine smuggling. as a un expert discovered, i was asked by the un tooth spearheads project. what we found out was mostly organized, klein groups operating in latin america. we're trying to get cocaine to europe. they have to pass through historical transit routes or trade routes in parts of africa. and it's impossible for those criminal groups to get the drugs to europe

without actually paying taxes to various terrorist groups along the way. in particular, groups with ties to al qaeda are profiting from drug trafficking in west africa. the lawyer, foresman personnel watches kind of look away because they'll get a lot more by these particular groups though, because they're a lot more powerful. in certain pos, the wolves, he is getting to a point now where it's hard to see how this can be counted effectively. the un mission is becoming more and more difficult. in the summer of 2021, a patrol of german troops was attacked and molly, tourists and east africa to are making money from drug trafficking. here it's not about cocaine, but heroin smuggled from afghanistan and on its way to europe in the mediterranean european ships are picking up drug smugglers. in june 2020 italian investigator seized a shipment of kept a gone. the stimulant had been trafficked by the so called islam state,

it st value, 1000000000 euros. here in vienna, un experts know how dangerous it is when drugs and terror mix. northern irishman neil walsh is an analyst and ex police officer. when i was 11 or 12, i was standing in a clove shop with my dad on a saturday morning. and suddenly the windows came in. there was this enormous bang . we went out into the streets. there were people lying dead in the street. mm. for decades, british soldiers in northern ireland fought against the separatist. i are re, the group financed itself through organized crime. certainly in my law enforcement career, a, working in the u. k. and europe, poland haig, intelligence and evidence all the time, showing the links between organized criminals and terrorists. it's always been there. the i r re feared informants and traitors. contact with criminals

was considered a risk. terrace organizations then insulate themselves from rest and their own members figure out how to engage an extortion, kidnapping for ransom, drug trafficking, et cetera. and that makes them less vulnerable, and we've called it d, i, i organized crime, do it yourself. the i are re like to present itself as a political and moral force, however disagreements among members, splinter it's message. one sub group made a show of taking on drug traffickers, while members of another were linked to large scale cocaine trafficking. in 1998, the good friday agreement was signed, officially ending in conflict with the i array more than 20 years ago. i feel the hand of history upon a shoulder in respect of this one. but despite the peace old habits die hard,

whichever quick you're looking at whether it's an, if this isn't groupons improves agree to the piece, even if it's only temporary. they all need finance fins for propaganda recruitment, they pay salaries to their members. they even pay pensions, their members who are retired to maintain power. both sides smuggled cigarettes, weapons, and even people, a multi $1000000.00 business in northern ireland, all of the crews, they all continue to engage in different levels of organized crime to continue their funding streams. this is not confined to u. k or to europe, even. this is on the global scale we've been uncovered. it's some links between paramilitary groups, northern ireland and the middle east, through money laundering. a used car dealership on the outskirts of dusseldorf. it's lebanese born owner used the unassuming business to launder hundreds of thousands of euros until his arrest in 2018. he was

a key figure in the world of money laundering. you had used car businesses that were using the used cars. there were trading to move cocaine across europe. right shank, an area. you pack cocaine in hidden compartments of the car. you drive from germany to spain, from spain, to france. there were moving cash the same way. the dealer had long been under surveillance by german and american authorities. they watched him use drug money to buy cars in europe, which he then sold in west africa until his arrest. he was in contact with the lebanese terrorist group. hes bala, hezbollah is backed by iran, it controls parts of lebanon, is active in syria, and even fought a war with israel. the constant violence prompts thousands of lebanese people to leave the country. they migrate to africa, europe, and usa,

and above all to south america. that is one of the reasons why his well started developing relations with organized crime because it's network of supporters around the world could actually be leveraged to provide the service to organized crime. in 2019 a lebanese man was arrested in south america on suspicion of money laundering. the criminals need not only to longer the cash but also to move the merchandise. and they provide that service to. for years, us authorities have been cracking down on his bill as money, landers. in 20. 191 of the leaders was sentenced to 5 years in prison. others are still awaiting trial. hezbollah maintains contacts with expatriate lebanese, almost everywhere in the world. a global network of organized crime has belies like the amazon d h. l, and western union of the criminal underworld. with this video shows

a read in europe fighting transnational criminal syndicates is getting more complicated for europe. all the european police agency, headquartered in the hague, organized crime. he's no longer based on groups. it's based on networks. they're using also the service providers, people who are ex person id shoes or finance li, she's legal issues, logistical issues. they tried to minimize their risks and then of course also minimize the costs. cooperation is highly interlinked. alliances can change over night and borders are no longer much of an issue. euro poll itself is a long way from being that flexible. when i started to work here in europe all the view, oh gosh, god has completed chased. so it, sir. much more difficult situation than i expected to be honest. europa regularly publishes videos of operations around europe. they break up group

after group arrest dealer after dealer new criminals, simply spring up in their place. whenever there's an empty place, somebody will fill it in, in a really short time period. often only the small fish are caught without bankers and lawyers in the background. the business wouldn't function. that's why you have to focus on those who are leading the camille activities and not all those persons who are operating on the street level. easier said than done case in point. the netherlands in september 2019 dutch lawyer dec version was shot. he was representing a key witness who wanted to testify against moroccan drug smugglers. and 18 months later, journalist pated of reese was murdered in amsterdam. he was advising the same key witnesses. the orders for the killings came from high up. in the cocaine trade, we set the acknowledged that organized crime exposing an increasing and diverse

risk called up each member stay sunday. so say this as a whole, we have to take action. no, before i said before, it's too late and diesel jobs higher regional court. an explosive trial depicts the new normal members of the mafia are alleged to have lent money to turkish defendants. for a cocaine deal with moroccan traffickers, the public prosecutor has evidence from undercover officers. the dealers at the end of the chain earned $5000.00 euros per kilo. all this is part of an international shadow economy that the german justice system can hardly touch liberally. starts on phone, on visual stella v. i can't think of any way we could have really delta blow against organized crimes. edson didn't, does media broadened us because even talking about it would be proof enough that we were furthering our own political goals and she's not our messen lesson for decades . criminal glands like the italian in diameter have succeeded in building

structures in germany. sounds ro, maturity researchers had the calibri and group has succeeded in germany. marty olias read thousands of pages of files on the interrogator. from italian authorities. the mafioso were overheard praising germany saying anything was possible there to keep it that way. they said it was important to be quiet like in keesa, in church. it isn't, you know, invasion be like they know exactly where they can work without attracting attention or having to fear consequences. and some fusions of the problem is that, that realm is just too big. in the city center of juice borg directly opposite the district court monster spent years quietly laundering money through an ice cream parlor. what's in yonder? i'm gone 10 years ago when i started looking at the mafia ice, the i always thought it was impossible to know who belong to the organisation lies east us. but up now it's clear that the police know a lot in terms of affiliations. they know exactly who moves and what circle in

shelby as it can be, but there are no further consequences. light of consequence in button fitting bag restauranteur mario l. b. him a respected person is that it was clear to every investigator who dealt with him that he was in the mafia. he opened one restaurant after another and probably many more. 3 front meadow does not feed me in the italian files. the number is over 140 mario l organized, catering for the centre ride cd. you party and met future european commissioner ginger a dinner after years without facing justice. he was sentenced to 10 years by an italian court in 2019. since the beginning of 2021, the largest mafia trial in years has been taking place in calabria. with $355.00 defendants and hundreds of defense lawyers. prosecutors want to expose the overall structure in germany, that sort of trial is a long way off video. it's gone. if we don't even make the effort to recognize this

system with the shine, a light on it and understand it, and we, we won't be able to fight it with any precision good will. for years italian prosecutors like nicola godaddy have been trying to take on the internet into he carried out a spectacular anti mafia operation named metropolis. back in 2013. at the time italian investigators uncovered a linked to irish extremists, an ex member of the provisional i. r a was arrested in the operation metropolis. the par latrice had huge, huge amounts of stock piles of cash that they wanted to invest. so the mafia basically said, well, we can help you clean that money and invest it into a legitimate business. the mafia developed land building luxury apartments. when necessary they put pressure on the previous owners. the mafia helped launder

450000000 euros. was this supposedly former provisional iran member pouring money into property and calabria to the key figure in the money laundering plot was jailed for years in the 1970s. after being convicted of involvement in an ira bombing briggs, it has shown how volatile the situation in northern ireland still is. most of northern ireland is actually run by paramedics groups. there are certain parts of northern ireland that the police just can't police. they're not allowed to enter and the message they get from local communities is where governs why paramilitaries and even in england, the police can't be everywhere we are noticed has below, was using a london warehouse to store thousands of cooling cars filled with ammonium nitrate

. when you, nitrogen is used mainly as fertilizer. it also is found commonly in small quantities in medical equipment. the chemicals lethal capability was shown in the summer of 2020 in beirut. $500.00 tons exploded in the port destroying part of the city. ah, you can't just walk into pharmacy and buy 3 tons of ammonium nitrate that were found in london. that's where these support networks around the globe come handy. you buy icebox 1st aid kits and you slowly accumulate them over time in warehouses . and then at some point, the quantity is enough to enable the bomb makers to come in. in 1995 u. s. terrorists used ammonium nitrate to blow up

a federal building in oklahoma. it's a substance that alarms investigators. in germany chew has paula has set up an organizational structure and stored ammonium nitrate in spring. 2020 as will i was banned in germany, but it continues to operate illegally. oh, has milton lang there patient much like al qaeda and are likely going to take their time to pick and choose their spots where they feel like they can have maximum impact. at the end of the day, their ross on their tray right is terrorism just like drug cartels, terrorist groups like hes paula need to launch their money and move it around the world. often major financial centers are used in london, former finance watchdog and banker graham barrows has seen the practice close up.

london is a kind of perfect storm of a legal system which is useful corporate structures which are useful that provides a lot of the toes with which to own the money. so companies, for example, that, that exists solely to, to move money around the world. 80 percent of global trade is done in dollars. so a few large banks play a key role, only they have license to inject dollars into the financial system. one of them is deutsche bank which have since become notorious for the levels of dirty money that's moved through them. it will then move through torture back to all the safe places they want it to be lebanon's f b m e bank was one such client in july 2020 new york's banking regulator. determined that it and dodge a bank,

had pumped $618000000000.00 into the financial market. much of the money can be traced, terrorist groups and drug cartels. the retain you and he is a global network of companies, banks and operators who will provide those services to anyone operating in the criminal economy. whether that's re corruption, organized, crime, all the financing of terrorism, the financial crisis exposed. why many financial authorities only half heartedly challenged the system, the global economy has long been too dependent on dirty money. the kind of the un o d. c, the office of drugs and crime effectively said, the only thing that stopped the global economy collapsing was the dirty money entering the system. and that's as good and clear as you'll ever gonna get how important 30 money is to the global economy. that dependence continued after the financial crisis up to 3 trillion euros are generated illegally every year. that's

close to the gross domestic product of germany and about 3 percent of global g d p . i imagine if we wipe 3 percent of global economic activity out tomorrow, we would have the worst depression. the world has ever seen, it would collapse the global economy. so there is this kind of interlink between criminal activity and economic activity was you can wipe out instantly prod in the czech republic like neighboring slovakia. the e state is thought to suffer from widespread organized crime in 2017 checked journalist pavlov whatsoever. and jer, slovak colleague yon could see act began researching the wrong or just influence on the government. he ana called me one day that the prime minister has a new assistant. she's really young, she's former miss universe contestant, and there is no public information. what made her eligible for such a position?

or we started to dig a little bit deeper and we found out that she was co sharing a company with antony, nevada law, who was based in calabria. and that he made heavy ties to the wrong into yon could. zach was 27 at the time working from home as an investigative journalist, yada was really much more into documents, analyzing them then talking to on the school source. he's, he was, was kind of silent, analytical type, putting it piece by piece to get her to understand the whole picture. we understood both of us that it could be tricky, but we thought that we may be facing risk from italy. so we were kind of more careful if we are being followed or not. but we believe that there will be not much impact of the story. no one really paid attention to part cor, organized crime in slovakia by them. on february 21st 2018 in the middle of the

night, a former soldier entered could see hanks house shooting. the journalist dead. hoots young's 27 year old fiance. martina was also killed when it became known that could see i had been researching possible crimes among the prime ministers, entourage. thousands demonstrated against corruption. slovak prime minister roberts pizza, went on the offensive offering 1000000 euros as a cash reward for clues. both of them was nami, but the questions remained unanswered. after yana was killed, of course we took over and we actually tried to finish to work on a started and was never able to finish. hudson valley was temporarily under police protection, but she continued to follow could see acts leads. the reporter had been investigating

marianna coroner, a well known businessman in st. louis, coached or had allegedly evaded millions of euros in taxes. one day coach, generic called cutesy act here recorded how the businessman was telling him, i'm going to collect dirt on you and your family and you will stop writing, coached r came under pressure, gucci ex killer, and his assistant were arrested, leading investigators towards the business ban eventually, coach no was brought to trial as the alleged mastermind of the murder. his activities were probed by the court. and by journalists, one of the key pieces of the evidence where to cellphones, marianna, quoted, one of the cellphones contained a back up of 3 mamma, messy cheese, and the conversation actually revealed his conversations with judges with prosecutors. this was proof that coach nor it bribe politicians and judges. one

judge had been intimidated by one of his associates. you send this message and it was actually saying she should do what she promised and she should rule otherwise. she might end up escal tech, parts of our published the reports, prompting a shockwave $21.00 judges where actually detained. it was spa, safe, and i don't remember this happening in any other european country. the former police chief was still investigating the could see i case was also arrested on suspicion of corruption. they were charged wis headink organized criminal groups. what dislike mind blowing in the could see act murder, trial, marianna, coach know was initially acquitted. it was a shock for the families of the victims. then in the spring of 2021, the supreme court ordered a new trial. a sign of slovakia is constant,

struggle against organized crime by his decision to kill it or not. it's not uncommon that actually destroyed the whole system that was in place for 12 heaters and before the murder happened, we could hardly mention that as his them would ever change. it was so much embedded in the society. when the small island nation of malta joined the e. u in 2004, a lock changed for its half 1000000 inhabitants. it also became a gateway for criminals into the u. reported. daphne caruana delicia was interested in the issue. as her sister tells us, she actually covered politics in malta and that led her to discover crime which was actually trans national. the last sentence, her sister wrote, was there a crooked everywhere you look? the situation is desperate. it does feel desperate at times because it feels like the criminals are winning. daphne cur wanted to lead. sia had been intimidated and

threatened for years. she had become isolated by the end of her life. you know, there was such a long drawn out in such an intense campaign against her in it. legitimized socially to the point of people could crack jokes about murder on which is and homes is for real. said privately, when daphne was killed, it was shocking which wasn't surprising. hitman shadowed the journalist and blew her up along with her car. because if you report one story after another and nothing happens, you become the last line of defense between the rule of law and its collapse. and it becomes very easy to take the fasten out. and this is what happened enough, nice case. after the murder maltese police took action against the criminal

structures, arresting the perpetrators just like in slovakia, the trail led to the ruling party that caused protests you'll love to chat with. c they underestimated who they kids in the end, that's what it's in the man suspected of ordering. the killing was arrested in late 2019 while trying to flee on his yacht for years after the murder, there's still no verdict in the case. the victim's family continues to fight for justice. meanwhile, the european parliament has named a press room after daphne caroway migalia. if you just back down what you're saying is, yes you are right. she didn't matter. you could kill hunger for the fact. then i'm going to get that if we set out to say ok,

we're going to solve organized crime globally. it's going to happen. but you don't set out to win a war. you just set out to deal with. the things you can do is the accumulation of all the small actions that will make the big difference. organized crime is a global problem and to have any chance of defeating it. those fighting for justice must think globally to oh, they have to get out out of the hotels on the ball game in black sea coast. ukrainian, refugees allocating their rooms for the tourists. but where can they go?

from gary is considered do tourist you countries? there is still a lot of similarity for how much longer are focused on europe. in 30 minutes on d, w, a new tag to this special hotspots in germany, europe and the world dw, traveling extremely. when is the end of the pandemic in site? we show what it could look like. return in the normal and we visit those who are finding it difficult with successes on a minimum. you know weekly coven 19 special. every thursday on d. w. with

ah, this is jacob, the news and these are our top stories. in the embattled city of savannah to netscape deadline, russia gave ukrainian forces to surrender, has expired. russia has blamed ukrainian shilling for disrupting plants to open a humanitarian.
