being organized by a vigilante style greek you name ansel's city without narcotics this is a drug called as a morphine or locally known as crocodile it's a codeine containing 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. lying around the house next door a young child and a mother who looks barely more than a child herself extremely scared and upset and it really makes a very apparent just how sensitive this issue. should people be able to do this walking into homes and taking the law 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 we're aware of to be an issue to. the authorities didn't quite see it that way the twenty three year old man yeah. and several other members of the group using the same methods in the city of nish need to go were arrested a move which was met with strong public criticism. this chappie gore carried out over two hundred operations against drug dealers but as a result the mortality rate is half the good the gypsies are afraid to sell drugs and consequently don't bribe your forat is clearly the authorities there didn't like that the court handed down a three and a half year prison sentence for kidnapping the verdict to spark a public outcry of 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 our mom who's been convicted it's a mom who is really trying to change something in this life to make life better

despite the public reaction the relationship between the authorities and the grape is a fragile one. the first deputy minister of internal affairs wants to give your biggest problem is that you want the function of the state and 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. it is that people have to take the problem personally to understand that these before they are brothers and sisters and that unless they do it nobody will do it for that because. 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 has been accused of by human rights groups and the authority of the doors are locked in the conditions of crimes that the group claims a seventy percent success rate it's tough treatment pissed. my mother

saw it 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 grip of a major drug 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 not only with the dealers but in rehabilitating users as well people like genya and the foundation say that it's left to them to stand and fight to free their city of drugs surf r.t. catarrh emberg. earlier i spoke to sara first to find out more about the center that she visited. a luxury place we the main area where they treated 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 food also essentially going cold turkey going to. the people who face going three the treatment at the time and come three and 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 them 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 raid 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 rate that we went on they trained the persons parents and asked parents

they're given the option whether the person was arrested or whether they're taken into this rehabilitation center and helped. when a retired police colonel who took part in u.s. operations against drug dealers has told r.t. that the methods used by the group are totally illegal. to me it sounds like torture is in the immediate step but we have to differ here the results and the methods to my listing is completely legal even though the law enforcement agencies in the country federal and regional level. all of them are allowed to carry on detection operational activities according to the law the conditions of where the drug addicts were kept to me through samples prisons and even worse meanwhile public anger has led the russian president to urge prosecutors to pay more attention to communities who are getting tough on ridding the towns of drugs

to reach many belive was meeting rock musicians he told him no need to take a wider view of people trying to do the right thing. it is impossible that the guy will be in prison is done nothing. you said this i heard you i'm asking to pay more attention to what is going on there. i'm honest without interfering with the trial in order to avoid a conflict with the law. anyway if the situation is like you're saying it needs attention. also to come in the program the benefit of being out of work in britain . doing it. just. as. welfare is the easy option for the one in town the first state and that's earning that and wage. russia is ready to get

relations with britain back on track foreign minister sergei lavrov the optimism comes as his british counterpart visits moscow there are still issues standing in the way of bringing the two closer together. william hague's visit for. both sides have already managed to reiterate that they do want a better relationship they do aim for a better relationship the russian foreign minister said he however was keen to underline the fact that it is not then from russia's lack of will that the relationship has been somewhat flossy moscow does want a reset similar to ties with the united states in relations with britain but it is the british side according to the russian foreign minister and many other sources that is somewhat hesitant to bring the relationship to a new more open and more trusting level well there are many things of course hanging in the air. over relations between moscow and london one of them perhaps the most prominent one is the murder of former k.g.b.

officer alex on the way it's been young guy that took place in london he was of course weazened of by a radioactive material polonium two ten that murder is still unsolved and despite frequent british request to extradite a man they believe to be guilty of murder and boyd who is a russian state duma deputy here in moscow moscow has refused to extradite the man believing that there isn't enough evidence they haven't seen enough evidence for him to be extradited and this is of course a tit for tat situation with moscow or london or perhaps even noted for no tat because russia is refusing to extradite. britain on its side has refused to extradite many russia believes to be guilty. of breaking the law specifically people like. a person who russia believes to be behind many terrorist activities here in russia specifically for disturbing the peace in

the already volatile caucasus region he is has political asylum in the united kingdom with britain refusing to extract the man believing him to be a political refugee so there are many aspects that are potentially troubling to the relationship and of course now everybody is eagerly watching to see whether this visit will be any closer to resolving some of the some of the issues. well there's always more online if you had r.t. dot com let's have a quick look at columbus to conquer my native american say there's nothing to celebrate about the explorers discovery. and putting your session to bed hotel bookings return to pre-crisis levels just coming down to checking out the last.

the first civilian trial of a gone time of detainees has begun in the us the decision to try the terror suspect in one heightened to a fierce media backlash new yorkers concerned about security in the heightened emotions it could cause but it's not season to see a chicken or explains things are now remarkably quiet. but the main problem isn't security same problem on the head no no how many intelligence secrets will we surrender during this process terrorists are on us soil that's not the point we'll get to spew all kinds of anti american propaganda because that's what's going to happen well i'm an oracle a shockingly relaxed atmosphere outside the federal courthouse in lower manhattan especially when a case of such significance is going on this place the scene some of the most publicized scandals of the last two years this is where bernie made off with sentence for over a century this is where the curious case of the russian special agents unraveled this entire street was packed with t.v.

satellite trucks and dozens and dozens of crews ready to bring their viewers all of the latest and now when for the first time at one time of detainees being tried in a criminal court of justice in the u.s. none of the media hype is here as the decision whether or not to try terror suspects on u.s. soil was being made the us mainstream media was out of control with outrage they were saying this is unacceptable and that terror suspects should be tried in military tribunals now on the first day of the trial there's only a couple of lonely 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 traffic which clearly is not the case and that the neighborhood 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 here know. for sure. 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 know that a terrorist suspect being tried in this courthouse or here you know does it bother you does it concern you that this is going on right here no uninfluenced by the attempts to hype them up with fear mongering the locals are not facing any of the issues predicted by the media going about business as usual mr r.t. new york. they are nearly one in eight to british households has no one in work
