what the border to chat where we care in china. also responding and working with stakeholders to receive so we can expect many more debt. you to lack of aspect food and the total destruction of the health services. that was caitlin a volley from kat international speaking to me earlier. now iran supreme court has upheld a death sentence against the 68 year old iranian german jewel, national for the crime of what is called corruption on earth. the journalist and the activist jam shed shaw maud was sentenced to death in february, accused of playing a role in a 2008 mosque bombing. his family says he is innocent. the german foreign minister analynn a bad book has called on iran to reverse the judgment. for more than 2 years german, iranian journalist and activist jumps, he chairman, has been detained in iran. in february, he was sentenced to death. and now the country supreme cold confirmed the sentence,

his suddenly insist his innocence, the accused iranian governments of kidnapping the long time. you are resident on a stop over into by while on a business trip in 2020. and now they're worried. so far, yes, no lawyer, he has no access to anybody. has no access to his medication that he needs. he has parkinson's and they don't give it to him on time. he has lost at 40 pounds a week. he has lost all of his teeth. we don't know if they've been knocked out or if they fell out due to malnutrition, we know they're torturing him. and now that they've tortured him for 2 and a half years, they want to take away his life in a tweet foreign minister anna lynn up here. bach has called a death sentence for tom. she'd chart unacceptable and urged iran to reverse the judgment. immediately she stressed that everything was being done for mister sham out. to prevent the sentence from being carried out,

the german ambassador to ron cancel the business trip and is on his way back to tear on to intervene with the iranian authorities. but this won't be enough. some outs, daughter fears we need our governments to show where they are. red line is when their citizens are abducted and taken there and tortured, put the sham trials, and are about to be executed. what are they willing to do when are they going to stop dealing with this regime and treating them like business partners? when are they going to do the right thing and work together with their life to put pressure on this regime to stop them from doing what they're doing? my mom is after the death sentence was announced in february and exiled, iranians called in the german government to increase pressure and here they continue to demand the release of jumps, which i'm out and several other political prisoners. i. p, i to works for the human rights group. however help and she helped organize

a protest in berlin today in support of jumps from what she told me earlier, what the protest as want from the german government. so were demanding that the german government do absolutely everything in their power to make sure not only jumps should sharma who is of course a german citizen is freed from from his incarceration, but also the 20 other political prisoners who are innocent individuals. there's no judicial process who've been incarcerated since september 2022 since the revolution began. and we need germany to stop economic relations and stop business partnerships with the iranian government. germany still has the strongest economic ties of any country with the iranian government. and this needs to stop under the circumstances we've, we've heard the condemnations of the death sentence from jasmine politicians such as the foreign minister on a lena bab bulk. but from what you will saying these words,

an honest enough do a comment like this. make any difference though. comments and demonstrations and words, of course they make a difference and they're important. but the condemnations are, of course not enough, much more needs to happen. there needs a lot. there needs to be a lot more transparent for transparency of what is happening because the general public doesn't know what efforts are being made to have these prisoners released. and we just were in the dark, all of us are in the dark. the families are suffering. they're at, they're going through torture day by day. they can't sleep and it's terrible to see . i mean, jam shit has been in solitary confinement for in a 1000 days it's, that's incredible torture for a human body to have to go through it more needs to happen. from the german government side, this is a german citizen. do you think the protest like the one that you will, if you are organizing today, do they make a difference in terms of raising awareness and getting people involved?

definitely we need to keep the political pressure pressure on this topic. i mean, the news media jumped on the topic last year and when the revolution began, but slowly the media attention has to die down. and we as an organization, human rights organization of our help, it's our role to keep the media attention and keep the general attention on these crises and on these human rights abuses. whether it's iranian or indian regime or other regimes that are committing human rights abuses. p of i have from the human rights organization have i help thank you so much for speaking to us today. thank you. take a look now at some of the other stories making news around the world. ukraine says the russian missile strike has killed one person and injured more than 20 others in the southern city of mich alive. the rockets hit private homes and an apartment building. the kremlin has repeatedly denied that it is targeting civilians and coast guard ships from china and the philippines narrowly avoided
