[coughs] let's give you the latest headlines this hour on "bbc news". student protests have hurt -- turned violent on the streets of london. due to an increase in tuition fees. prince charles and his wife camilla were caught up in the violence. well, let's get some more on that now. with me is our home affairs correspondent. june, let's be clear about this. there were a lot a peaceful protesters, most of them contained by the police. it is certain what will be on the front page -- the picture of the world couple.

it was not a calculated ambush. those protesters had broken off from the main march. it was a coincidence. but surely, the royal detail, the security detail will have some serious questions to answer. >> i was told by scotland yard that they are beginning an internal investigation. the big questions are, what if this had been somebody else is more sinister intent? what if this had not been painted? and these people got very close to the rolls royce. the prince has a security detail. how were these people able to get so close? >> the car had a bulletproof panels and class. -- and glass. central london had been a battleground for hours. the security detail must have known. >> they never had any plan for

the rural route to converge with the demonstration, but the problem arose when these protesters split off from the main demonstration. the main demonstrations were going around the houses of parliament. they split away and ended up in the west end of london, the theater area, which is where the royal couple were heading. that is how the two collided. that raises the question -- once you can see the protestors had split away, perhaps the piece planning the world trip, they should think, do we need to change routes? it was a volatile situation. this will be on the front page. >> another problem seems to be the police car cut separated from the royal car. we have witnesses saying that the police cars were trying to move forward, banging their front doors into the protesters. several correspondents have said that the government won the vote, but it will not look like a victory in the streets. >> the question to the police

and the home secretary. she has said it is a massive -- for the police. how were they able to get so close to the royal couple? as we saw in the pictures, they look very shocked. the duchess looks terribly taken aback. >> thank you. in china, right now friday morning is a daunting. one of this citizens will receive the nobel peace prize. liu xiaobo will not be there to receive it. the nobel panel defended their pick today. they said those that those who attend tomorrow's ceremony -- china says that those who attend tomorrow ceremony will not be showing respect. >> it's a grey, cold, forbidding place. the prison. walls topped with barbed wire.

we hide our cameras. this year's peace prize winner is serving time here. he has another nine years to serve. this'll be the first time since the 1930's a family member will travel to oslo to collect the prize. at the time, the winner was a in jail in nazi germany. it is a parallel. the chinese government says that he is a criminal -- liu xiaobo is a criminal. his crime is to challenge the communist party's monopolization of power in china. this is liu xiaobo on the left in the yen and tianenman squar.

they credit him with the saving countless lives by persuading the students to withdraw as the army advanced. this is where liu xiaobo live. his wife is inside under house arrest, cut off from communicating with anyone. others have been present -- prevented from travelling to oslo. his brother made a few brief comments after the prize was announced. >> i hope the government will release my brother and our nation can undergo political reform. if we are allowed to accept the prize, we will cut ago. >> since then, he has gone inside. we got as far as his office, but nobody was saying anything. the nobel prize is far too

sensitive a subject. we would like to talk to the professor. eventually, we caught up with him at the airport. the authorities have warned him off. he will not talk again. after you -- you're afraid of the police arresting you. detectives are following him everywhere. there has been unprecedented diplomatic pressure, too. there is a letter sent by china to european embassies -- liu xiaobo did everything possible to sabotage china's stability. we hope that your country will refrain from attending any activities directed against china. friday's prize ceremony. this nobel prize shows deep divisions between a democratic west and verizon authoritarian

business. >> it might be very helpful for a company like that and a person like that to have the royal family as a door opener as he is doing investments. there is this a potential risk that the royal family repays the favor. >> sweden's anti-corruption unit decided the palace was immune under the constitution. the palace said it was a wedding gift from an old friend. the unit did investigate saab, a maker of these jets over allegations it used a middleman to bribe the south african government to secure a liquid of order. we asked saab for an interview. they give us a statement. we do not consider that we have committed any illegal acts. for us, we conduct our business with the highest ethical standards and we act with zero tolerance for bribery. the preliminary investigation

was conducted over several years. it was assisted by openly sharing all the information requested. the prosecutor dropped the case. he said he did not have enough evidence. one author says it is not good enough. >> the prosecutor could not get the means for doing the investigation. we was often, sevearral times asked for special policemen to do the work. this is the biggest corruption in sweden. >> there are still not enough staff. he has to rely on police for other departments. >> it's a problems till. we are not that aware of corruption in sweden. you can say it's naive. you don't allocate resources,
