this is one of the most dangerous places on earth fought over by armed is the most groups pirates and bandits somalia is a country with no law and order a no man's land where an armed escort is essential at all times. of. this film of record a seven hundred kilometer journey across the somali desert in search of a rumor that won't die. mysterious containers filled with toxic liquids but suddenly began appearing on somalia's coast this anomaly in december two thousand and four destroyed everything here. it also washed ashore a strange objects on the floor so somebody up there there's

a poison inside the school and most also things like blood the fluid if it's left like that eventually it will break open in spread because of the lies no one see there she got through that office has offered up flatmate's all thoughts and no one . there are no coast guards in somalia to keep an eye on such things anybody can come and just don't put everyone. on both sides of the barrel is a sturdy hook apparently used when being lifted by a crane and so more easily thrown overboard. we have negotiated a meeting with the council of village chiefs that the fish were killed by the barrels that were leaking that's what killed them. even the color of the water changed when anyone went into the sea here to develop skin problems.

so what do you do when your fish disappears from the sea what are your options of course. a lot actually. but look before three quarters of the people here lived off of fishing that was nowadays it's barely one in twenty some of turn to power a city others have nothing. we asked the village elders whether we could talk with one of the pirates like many of the others he is a former fisherman now forced into piracy. i became a pirate because of all the foreign ships that have been destroying our fishing livelihoods that's what really made us become pirates. good financial backing from some people and then we go looking for ships to capture. all of. the syquest played a role in this this is not. the full of course for three hundred miles around here

there's toxic waste still smoking all but. somehow the one who gets too close will lose consciousness. eight hundred kilometers away mogadishu is our next destination. we head for the hospital. for several years the somali doctors have been struggling to deal with numerous genetic defamations of the genitals the bladder and the urine a canal they are the typical result of exposure to dangerous chemicals. in means. because you have. something. to do you have any ideas as to who's going to say three fourths. treece holding it for us for two years.

in this hospital and this is just by march one thousand nine hundred four the militias have become old powerful. taliban and u.s. forces were getting ready to leave. a young italian journalist albi was covering their withdrawal. drive and persistence led ilario lp to uncover a completely different story one abroad fishing boats. to promote the fishing trade in somalia the italian government give trawlers to a company called shift go however shift those boats did not seem to do a lot of fishing they made trips back and forth to europe in somalia they were under the control of an armed group ilario suspected that the boats were transporting something other than fish yorkers sooners forward to more. show on her last trip to mogadishu all alone met with a somali national who mentioned the traffic in toxic waste. from goldfish is. she decided to check the story in the town of bull sauce sold out here both

south of that you saw. it was there above the journalist met with one of the leaders of an armed militia group here. this was to be her last interview. where is the ballots can i see it tell it it why do you want to see it but for us buyers something ok just use the information that's all but ending for the sound of us if i don't see a country polish radio you won't believe it until you see it uses satellite then. shortly after the interview larry i'll be under camera man were murdered in mogadishu. the car in which they were traveling was attacked by an armed guy that immediately fled. the death of a larry i'll be sparked dozens of inquiries in italy. the

legal authorities sifted through all the businesses operating in somalia and in doing so uncovered the fraudulent toxic way. market. modern industry produces an increasing amount of potentially fatal waste from chemicals to heavy metals and even radioactive products the more dangerous the material the more expensive it is to destroy. as a result certain individuals all for a cheaper alternative dump the waste in the third world a solution which is completely illegal. the italian authorities have exposed one of these networks it is not the only one of its kind and it is certainly not the most significant. for people who are involved in this toxic ring the former owner a somali console. me. an expert in toxic waste we'd all

got early. freight business men and the key contract for the italian army in mogadishu jan carlo. and the fourth man in the network is none other than the then president of somalia. in one thousand nine hundred five a former president appoints the only honorary consul scotti only makes full use of his devil magic status to set up the toxic waste scam ignores the fact that in one thousand nine hundred three international treaty for bids the export of dangerous waste materials from europe to the third world. scully only toured northern italian industrial complexes he went from door to door

like a common salesman to any industry that needed to rid itself of toxic waste. its destruction is expensive and he offered to do the job on the. among the industrialist sky baloney called on is this man a scrap metal merchant from the tour and region who only agreed to be interviewed on the condition of anonymity. said they were looking for people who had a ways to get rid of its. earlier yes the problem was they had to look for quite a few in order to fill the ship. and i'm not a competitor and how many tons can be loaded on to the ship from. this ship must have been at least ten thousand tons. at one hundred dollars a ton a full load could earn

a substantial paul first of one million dollars but sky clooney raise so much just in his rounds of industry that he began to draw the attention of the authorities a judge in the northern italian town of asti led the inquiry he also rise the phone tapping over several months of suspected members of the network. loons rule was to collect the waste that's what he himself told the industrialists he met at. the office said what he was doing was entirely legal. ever the point was that at the time somalia was a country that couldn't legally import subset of with. whatever documentation he provided. these days scotty only is no longer a somali honorary consul is so shared with masonic and templar organizations and is the self-proclaimed head of the phantom state of nevada

a tiny island off the coast of haiti. it effectively exists only on the internet. great to be interviewed only in his capacity of the prince of. senior. so if your country is recognised i'm jus become head of state c.s. then you would have diplomatic immunity agreement which. i look at as would any head of state yes you have held diplomatic post haven't you. but that was a long time ago your somali honorary consul wants to see him for four years yes. there are some people who believe you use this diplomatic role to bring toxic waste into somalia is that true show me show me i have no idea what you're talking about . you don't want to talk about it or you don't know what i'm talking

about and i'm sticking to what i said at the store and won't budge from that so you don't want to talk about it. as i said i can talk to you about nova but that is all . for free for i don't want to drive capacitive a piece only or present of a quote from the course. the prince of nevada revealed nothing further. his business partner at the time was john carlo maci know a shipping agent. he controlled the port in the north of mogadishu march you know had been living in somalia for more than ten years he knew the warlords was an informer for the italian army had won several construction contracts and peddled favors in the influence. it was martino who provided the access to ali mahdi the somali president. he claimed to get presidential authorization to import toxic

waste. so was there a network put in place to export toxic waste to somalia and he took sick also there's no matter. here they don't eat and there was no network talk yes i'll do this to send that a lot of that you believe me tell you it was just to make money it was a fraud the question is will take the money upfront and then say sorry i couldn't do anything and keep the material couldn't be shipped or some such exceeds proof it is a sort of scam should be the way it works is i offer to do something for you you pay me to vance to do it but in the end it doesn't work out in the meantime i've made twenty or thirty thousand feet to fit you. but you dishful inquiry established that ben somali president ali was also to receive his share from the

toxic waste trade roughly thirty five percent of the profits. today ali money is no longer president believes the report nie. the cultural capital of kenya and refuses to speak to journalists. he does however insist that the evidence implicating him is false. and yet it was official also arise ation issued from the presidential office in one thousand nine hundred six that finally permitted the import of harmful toxic waste. only was put in charge of the operation which seem to have been set in stone. going to early is an adventure a half serb half italian with in a ray of passports and identities. his name appears on several documents involving the shipment of toxic waste to africa is also spent about

a dozen years in prison. he was another who enjoyed the confidence of the somali president and witnessed the network's activities. did you visit somalia in the lead ten times did you have any dealings with the early movie . there's quite a few affair for so anyway was eva one who also rise to talks of ways to be sent to some other issue to see girls who maybe. know of no i don't think it was him the authorizations were. killed. and yes in his dealings with italian businessmen scraggly only claim to have the full backing of the somali president including for radioactive waste the most dangerous of all. they go back.

to the good bye. yeah. but it is after that. tragedy that. faced with the damning evidence of the recordings the honorary consul decides to spill the beans and betray his former associates. he says marciano plan to hide the radioactive waste in huge container such as this one. these containers were to be buried in the jetty of a porch he was building in north mogadishu. italian authorities used amateur photos showing such metal containers being buried in the concrete as evidence. where they full of radioactive material

a scandal only claims. today the port is out of bounds it is in the hands of al qaeda is islamist militias. who with him it's yet to console eyes he had some serious problems i'm not sure maybe someone told him if you confess to this we can help you much after all the shit that arrives fully laden with waste off the coast of somalia it wasn't going to do of enter a port in offload the barrels the barrels would just be dumped at sea and that's it was the problem will be general up we're going to be. on a day that the journalist l r e l p was killed with a camera man in the streets mogadishu a white italian man was the first on the scene. he seems to know more about it than the others is none other than john carlos marciano.

sad because i arrived right afterwards and there was a lot of confusion i was upset. i thought it was a planned ambush because the core had been machine gun and nine bullets i said to myself they should never have been in this place and then what they said and how they got to be here well my conscience is clear i mean when we're in with well known to be able to progress which are questions about the l.t. murder the interview to an end. boy cover for that's enough why are you asking these questions you know no one has ever been charged with the murder of a lottery and i'll be i never know for trafficking ways. that people didn't feel the. italian authorities did eventually find a somali citizen guilty for the killing of the journalist is always proclaimed his

innocence and many believe the case is still unresolved. any evidence from the phone tapping or scared loonies network has been thrown out as invalid. none of the three men will be troubled as italian magistrates have never sent a team out into the fields to check the facts. in a village not far from milan lives someone who has changed his mind about toxic waste trade. someone who exposed a team that was preparing such an operation in africa. severing has since retired from all activity and lives on the street where nobody asks questions. but for many years several involved dumping poison into the poorest countries. is the traffic and waste benefit from a war situation. the beyond the ideally yes it makes things easier if you richard

it's a cynical thing to say but it's true. for for words. i we were already filled healthily imagine an old map of the world with little flags italy's full enables a simple enough point with what's missing now for and were about in africa laughing wherever there are serious problems or poverty so haiti in somalia places where political problems are particularly bad it's just business human life has no relevance whatsoever. i one day in haiti where he dumped some particularly dangerous waste several witnessed a scene that would change him forever. i was in charge of unloading the ship i was stuck in the court and it was costing about two million lira a day a lot of money the faster i can offload the boat the better. premarin hilly i

unloaded the containers usually crane the one on top of the other a cork i'm throwing them out one after another going there powering up everywhere but i don't care because well made at least two weeks later i saw the results it was awful it was radioactive waste you see over. in the end separate aside to to inform the powers that be what he was involved in. this or that a lot of after in the area lp was killed i decided i had to tell the authorities one of the process interviewed. allied himself with the anti mafia division in milan and allowed the police to infiltrate his network. the network was connected to several celebrities of the international crime scene the police discovered that present within the organization was a certain moans are al cazar. months

or al qatar is a flamboyant syrian who works for all sides is sold weapons to extreme right wing latin american groups on behalf of the americans. as armed iraq and the palestinians. according to a un security council inquiry made public in two thousand and three i'll kiss our has also sold weapons to the various armed militia and somalia. the weapons were shipped in boats belonging to the infamous shift though company in which allow reality had expressed such an interest just before being killed. ten years later un officials confirm the young journalist suspicions. the boats were just used for fishing but for arms trafficking and probably toxic waste as well.

the money the way they paid off these militias who were very poor was to offer them weapons in exchange for dumping the toxic waste it was a win win situation for them because we've got a young sister if you will it's only. after three years of investigation the anti mafia division of milan decided to terminate the infiltration operation as it was considered too dangerous to proceed on terror the more mean though at a certain point the judicial authorities had to put an end to. the dangerous nature of members of the network and we decided it was better to prioritize the safety of our men on the inside and. they look at authority the police. in two thousand and nine the u.s. arrested arms dealer alka sar being set up and thought he was selling arms to colombian guerrillas who turned out to be federal agents and he was sentenced to

thirty years in prison. before venturing into piracy the somali gangs have proclaimed themselves the nation's coast guards. their stated aim was to protect their season shoreline from toxic waste and illegal fishing. but today they are just pirates. yet the fisherman who live alongside them every day defend their actions they have a different notion of what represents piracy. a lot of anyone can understand that thank you for the work on my home if we poor poison where you live and there's no government to protect you do a lot. foreigners attack you move even you defend yourself and to somewhere.

along the somali coast a fleet of western war vessels hunt down the pirates several dozen of them have already been arrested to this day no action has been taken against any of the industries suspected of disposing toxic waste off the coast of east africa. the. world. renewed the latest in science and technology from the ground floor should.
