there's a morphine or locally known as crocodile it's a codeine containing a drug and really dangerous the beginning of the race and coming through the window was pretty exciting but the minute that you get inside the reality of the situation really hits you very hard you've got a young family. folks lying around the house next door a young child and a mother who looks barely more than a child herself extreme and that's that and it really makes it very apparent just how sensitive this issue. should people be able to do this walking into homes and taking into their own hands. it's an action which is cruel is it wrong to rescue a drowning person by pulling their hair if people say it's cruel inhumane let them teach us how to do it otherwise we work twenty four seven to help these people when the state isn't doing anything to take the initiative on the authorities didn't

quite see it that way for twenty three year old man bychkov and several other members of the group using the same methods in the city finish need to go were arrested which was met with strong public criticism. igor carried out over two hundred operations against drug dealers as a result the mortality rate is half the gypsies are afraid to sell drugs and consequently don't bribe the authorities clearly the authorities there didn't like . the court handed down a three and a half year prison sentence for kidnapping the verdict to spark a public outcry and people claiming it's simply a victory for the drug dealers i sincerely believe that the trial and the verdict against year gorbachev are the most dangerous and frightening events in russia it's not only a mom who's been convicted it's a mom who is really trying to change something in this life to make life better for . despite the public reaction the relationship between the authorities and the

grape is a fragile. first deputy minister of internal affairs one of your biggest problem is the function of the state i said i don't need to take it back and do what's necessary. the foundation has continued its fight in the face of what it says is a lack of government action. that people have to take the problem personally i do understand that these before they are brothers and sisters and that unless they do it nobody will do it for that. when we visited the rehabilitation center that is run by the group there is no evidence of the controversial techniques such as handcuffing addicts to beds which the group is going to devise human rights groups and the authority of the doors are locked in the conditions of crime and the group claims a seventy percent success rate it's tough treatment when. my mother saw what six years of drug addiction had done to me and turned to the foundation

for help it's hard but you can see how the people are here they talk to each other there's an atmosphere of friendship which helps you through. rushes in the gret major drugs crisis with an unofficial estimate of two and a half million drug addicts in the country almost two percent of the population and until probably measures are in place to deal with the deal is that in rehabilitating users as well people like genya and the foundation say that it's to them to stand and take the fight to free the city of drugs so. you catherine bag. we thought sarah for joins us now in the studio to shed more light on this and sarah you've seen a similar vigilante center elsewhere tell us about what the conditions like. to create there were operating in you catch in. they call themselves the city without the cortex and they started eleven years ago in response to the growing problem. in

in the city they saw this huge peak in people taking drugs and they were at the foundation describes essentially around ten years going they started there were these huge nago in the city where children were taking drugs number of drug related deaths and so they started up in response to this and now eleven years on we went to see them they were very closely with the police in the city to take the take on the issue with a duty is that they work with a group of contacts that they have see the people that they're dealing with in the rehabilitation center often find them with information about where they've bought the drugs from and then they were with the police to go on these drugs for aids which is what we all say during the you mention the drugs raise them in are actually forced to go then to these three places they are yes it is a volunteer last time because the people like the rate that we went on the people that we saw. when they're in the grips of drug addiction are of the not

particularly capable of making logical decisions themselves safe the raid that we went on they trained the persons parents and. the parents they're given the option whether the person was arrested all whether they're taken into the theater for the patient and it helps to have these centers then who actually pays for all the facilities in the food and such as we saw in your report that well it's the foundation primarily that provide the funding they do have sort of charitable activities to raise funds when they needed it. this is the members of the foundation and selves there's a huge public participation in. a lot of public support a lot of people very very grateful to see what this organization has. i mean that the issue now is being for a very very hard and they had a lot of success in the last eleven years they say that the public supported what about the patients i suppose of the drug addicts what about them what are they

saying about this we actually visited the rehabilitation center it's by no means sort of luxury it's not a luxury place we the main area where they treat it you had essentially fifty people in one room was quite crime conditions and they kept there for around a month initially. just fed bread and water and very basic feeds also essentially going cold turkey going to. the people who face going three the treatment at the time and come three managed to get clean and have now moved on with their lives they said it's incredibly hard i mean fighting a drug addiction is never going to be easy but actually this huge support network that they have here and the fact that they're all in it together really is very very helpful you've got people in the same as situation t. and that's really a very positive thing for the interesting story thank you very much indeed for

explaining that to us. well a few minutes we take you to saw a tree where a limb pick construction is progressing in leaps and bounds. see i will say all of them on their latest progress. in today. working its way into a permanent reality reception one russian government unexpected dining. the first civilian trial of a contango detainee has begun in the u.s. the decision to try the terrorist suspect in manhattan jus offis media backlash we new yorkers concerned about security and the heightened emotions it could cause. he's honest to see which explains things are now remarkably quiet. but the main problem isn't security name problem on the head no no how many intelligence secrets will we surrender during this process they were terrorists are on us soil that's

a couple of louis journalists here with not much enthusiasm to find out what's really going on inside the courtroom. one of the biggest concerns of the mainstream media profits was that thousands of policemen would be needed to provide security in the area and that billions and billions of dollars would be wasted on policemen serving around the globe to be able to make sure that nothing goes wrong but clearly and obviously that is far from reality another big arguments against terror suspects including guy lonnie being tried here was that there would be a lot of trial which clearly is not the case. but the locals living here would be worried concerned and bothered are they let's find out you know that a terror suspect is being tried in the courthouse right near. does it bother you that this is happening on u.s. soil. no does it bother you do you know that a terror suspect is being tried in this courthouse right here. right now do you
