aah! building. the biggest thing in the world is the spirit of an architect of emotions. she just can't starts december 25th on d w. ah, ah ah, this is dw news light from berlin. iran executes a 2nd demonstrator who had joined anti government protests. at least a dozen people f reportedly been given death sentences after taking part in the uprising, lobbying scandal, rocks,

the european parliament police charge for people including a parliamentary vice president in a probe of alleged bribery by well composed contact and more than a 1000000 ukrainians have fled to germany since the start of the war. but 9 months in there's a lack of housing and a new study suggests that germans are less willing to support refugees. ah, i'm glad of as welcome to the program. demonstrations have been called across iran after a 2nd protester was executed by the regime market res, i ran a vod, was detained during anti government protests. he did it, he was convicted for allegedly stabbing to security officers to death during demonstrations. human rights activists say, nearly 500 people have been killed in the nationwide protests that began in mid

september. they estimate at least a dozen people are face of the death penalty for taking part in the protest. and earlier i spoke to come and martine, he's a senior electron international relations at the university of sussex in the u. k. and i asked him if he was surprised by a terence, brutal crack down on protesters. good morning. you know, i'm not, this was expected. and there was jim has been laying ground for this, this killings which by all conventions actually are extra judicial killings. the person who was executed this morning by the way that i thought i was only arrested 23 days ago. so the whole process from arrest to execution took only more and let them more than 3 weeks. he had no access to independent lawyer. it was a lawyer which was determined by the, by the state. and in fact,

and uranium my rights lawyer claims that given that there was no private plaintiff in this case, the whole case was brought to the court by the government and actually processed by the government by judiciary felt it's a sort of state killing. and i should also add that there are other protest us who are actually being killed on the torture in the prison. but the government then claims they have been either committing suicide or they have some other underlying conditions. including for example, mr. shod mom who is a kurdish protest there who has been recently the budget has been retained to the, to the families. so the killings are actually imprisoned. going in the different ways. but as we see and you mentioned that protests are already been called against this. and i, i don't see how this unbridled violence could then it could actually end the process because it makes it more center up to you. will it discourage protest as if

you risk your life and risk the death penalty was discouraged, protested. i'm not sure it does because people who go to the streets already prepared for being actually shaka, fire, security force or something which the government security troops have done for past 3 months. i mean, you, you mentioned in your clips in the beginning that's more than 460 people have already been killed, injury in demonstrations majority which have been actually fod. that's fine. i live in during the process. so i think people are aware of, of the, of the dangers and risks and they are familiar with the practices of the republic against the position. and i would also want to say that in fact, the protest or opposition to this execution has reached the highest level within the religious authorities of shame on itself in the home, which is the central kind of jurisprudence. so the government is quite desperate in

way, supposedly a show, of course, but i think it shows more, more desperation and fear rather than no authority and control. now this is a grassroots movement. there aren't any, any clear leaders. how like to do you think it is that they can bring out real change in the nursing change in iran? well, i think this is both a kind of a strength, but also potentially in short term i placed a witness of the movement, the strength because there is you cannot easily find the leaders and deal with them and therefore bring the movement to the end and weakness because it's kind of, you know, makes it more difficult to act more strategically to, to be a source of kind of any, to look at. so for international community and so on and so forth. but i think these are the new kinds of movement. we've seen the in the recent times and leadership would emerge from within the movement over time. and the already seeing

the growth of labor, union trade, union students movements and so on. and i think in the longer on this, this might be even better because it reduces the possibility of external and position of particular kind of political program on the movement as a whole. but we have to see how far and for how long the movement can sustain the current tempo and has come on that in from the university of sussex and but thank you very much. thank you. a vice president of the european parliament has been charged with corruption over allegations that woke up host could tar paid huge bribes bribes to influence you policy either kaylee has been stripped of her pass after investigators reportedly found bags of cash in her home. she's one of 4 people arrested so far in connection with this scandal,

a massive corruption scandal at the heart of europe that is getting bigger, high level you officials stand accused in an alleged influenced buying scheme by 30 . they, one of them is even gaiety. she is one of the parliament's vice presidents. recently ivan gaiety had become a vocal defender of the gulf, country or parliament. how are you today of intelligent, high educated people. they helped us to use that tension with turkey. they helped us with getting sent to save activists. she'd been women, they helped us and they are peace negotiators. they are good neighbors and partners . guy li, even priest got the at the front runner in labor, right. wake up post got that has faced white criticism for mistreatment of the migrant workers who built new stadiums. got that has denied using any illegal means of loving guy. lead

a means in police custody along with 3 other people. yet she has been suspended from her duties as a vice president, as well as from membership in her back to the galley and other treat people arrested, have been charged with back to the patient in a criminal organization, money laundering, and corruption. the scandal is rocking the european union we are very much certainly concerned, but the reason they are but they have to, i have to call the natalie with the facts, but the proven evidence that is ready, ready and very grievous positions such grave and massive corruption is obviously not only an individual problem, but it really shakespeare institution, and it is an issue that has to be dealt with on the highest level and in the most agile way now. but as the investigation focuses on,

long standing allegations that got the bought influence to host the world, got the gift is likely to raise questions on how countries like that there will have access to your decision makers. in the future. little earlier i spoke to if you talk to sarah, who is a senior police officer with the anti corruption organization transparency international. i asked him whether we are likely looking just at the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the current investigation. i mean, what the investigation has showed so far is that not only there's a vice president of the european parliament involved, there's a number of other people, there's administrators, there's assistance, there's former members of parliament. there are people that work for a lot of the organizations. i mean there's a slew of different individuals in different positions. so i would definitely not be surprised if there are more people involved as the days go by. with what we know so far, can you put into perspective the scale of this scandal?

i mean, if we have to see that for many years in france, international has been saying that the european parliament has our integrity and anti fraud rules, which should, to a large extent, we have been ignored. but if we consider that the, the, the, the level of influence the, the degree of access that you need to have to, to be able to, to allegedly be a bribing, one of the 14 vice president of the european parliament. and that is able to go in plenary and speaking in defense of your positions. i think it's, it's a very serious situation that we're living. this is unprecedented for the last 20 years, at least. now the case in quest to, we're looking at possible bribery by a country the you lobby register doesn't,

candy list country representatives. should this be changed? yeah. does show and we do believe that there should be a mandatory registration or 3rd countries. and indeed, this is a case of elicit lobbying, but i would like to point out that this is not just about loving this. about the driver re and corruption, it's about ethics. and there is right, no, no ethics oversight whatsoever. no monitoring, no sanctions, and all thought to share there from transparency international. many thanks, taking time out of a look at some of the other stories making headlines around the world today. china is shutting down a major cove at 19 tracking app. as it eases pandemic restrictions, people and i'll be able to travel without their movements being recorded. there has been growing criticism over the tough measures that lead to widespread protests across the country. a libyan man accused of blowing up pan am flight one

basically trying to get it over as quickly as possible. and on these few rest days, we've seen a very different side of though have very empty right now, we're at the cornish, the main hub of activity, usually in dough hornets. as you can see, very mc hardly anyone here. and also in the evening time, on rest days it's, it's basically been very sparsely populated. this main boardwalk of doha has been completely close off as has the highway of cornish, much to the frustration of local taxi drivers. and locals have told me that this really disrupts a driving anywhere in guitar. it's sort of the main road that takes you through doha. and even in the evening, time has hired entertainments on off days as well, but not a lot of fans here to be entertained. it's very cold and off everything is quite cumbersome to get to these fan festivals. and for me, it's a bit of a different experience. other tournaments i've been to, even on rest days, it's been quite lively. but here very, very calm, very quiet arrest

a gives you of course time for a reflection. tell us what has been your moment of the tournament so far? yeah, i think on and off the pitch. it's been morocco on the pitch, an underdog story that's inspired loads across the world. the 1st african semi finalist ever at a war wild cup tournaments and off the pitch, the fans have just been marvelous. $15000.00 more since live here in could saw and many more tens of thousands expected to be here and could saw roaring them on in the stadiums, but also in the streets after the lost when again, cause honking their horns across the streets of dough. how would people leaning out with morocco, flags, and in soup, what if the main market of doha, a fans gathering not just moroccans and egyptians also, saudis and algerians celebrating together. so while those political tensions between these countries, the fans here have come together. it's been quite marvelous to see, and as i say,

an underdog story that we always love to see in football. d w sports across bonnet, max meryl, they're on his rest day in doha. thank you very much. and finally, hundreds of people dressed as santa claus took thought in a chair to run in mexico. of the we can see event and is apple part of the mexican state of hollis scope is for children need. it's didn't take place last year because of the coven, 19 pandemic. that made the run even more special this time round. and a lot more fun. you watch the d w. c. as a reminder of the top stores we are following for you. in iran, a 2nd man has been executed over anti government protests. he was convicted for legit. these stabbing to security officers during demonstration, human rights activists say close to 500 people have been killed in the nation wide
