10:02 am
eight and many have already lost hope of finding him meanwhile the news of his attention comes from his nowhere who also defended his brothers who were believed to be involved in the killing of the journalist. that he hopes to prove his innocence of the crime meanwhile others of have been charged with conspiring to kill of the journalist and generally two thousand in the line of the main suspects were found not guilty as a russia supreme court revoked the rulings on the police investigated human rights violations and she was killed out of the door of her apartment in downtown moscow on october the seventh two thousand and six she worked for a moscow novaya gazeta and her murder at that time sparked a very strong international reaction and after years of the investigation process it is still not yet known who exactly ordered. after the latest news but of course
10:03 am
as brothers said that it is too early to celebrate and major breakthrough in the investigation he says he believes that group doesn't really know who exactly ordered to the killing. well fred ware from the christian science monitor joins me now in the studio to discuss this case for the makers of being hands to wear now as we were just hearing from all causes correspondent allegorical skies relatives down to be arrest of mahmoud of when i was really many closer to finding out he was there was a mastermind behind this killing he ordered it as it were what do you make of. what young girls. you know. if they do get it. right. it's just it's just. we're here for some reason that.
10:04 am
you know. rather than. the police. he's here hiding in plain sight they're in church all this time so the optimist and i would hope mr might say that there is some fresh sign of political will. explains why he's been arrested now and then we might potentially see a breakthrough in the case but that's that's that's a stretch right now we it's too early to say anything and i understand certainly you're among friends and relatives and supporters of the cause great skepticism is the order of the day and as a journalist and someone who's watched and followed this case very closely here in
10:05 am
russia for many years now what do you passing think were the reasons behind them. you know i don't i don't know exactly but i'm pretty sure. it had something to do with a unique. extraordinarily courageous brand of reporting she was the only room for a russian journalist who during the second chechen war when there were all corners of the republic reported what was going on every corner reported. the voices of every church and church and women even the rebels she was the only one doing this in the course of that recording she obviously made some very dangerous enemies are looking out. for himself and from a place where he insists that his innocence and his lawyer even said that he wanted to harm himself over because the same time they're running do you think that it is
10:06 am
likely that police here in russia actually have the right man. it's perfectly possible that. many. people people who are close to this case believe. that they do. in the case the previous trial i remember when his two brothers who were alleged to have been the drivers and so on so it's called was. acquitted quite a few of those report supporters applauded the acquittal saying well we might have thought we could do that but they're not the right guys what everybody wants to see is that the people who ordered it the best are mind as it were to be named and called and hopefully brought to justice let's toss some comparisons here with a person similar to the people of. the human rights act this does not matter girl often journalist but both of those cases successful prosecutions but as
10:07 am
a journalist would you say that you are satisfied that enough is being done to find those responsible well i don't think so i think after five years of really false store and poorly constructed trials and come completely botched investigations i don't think anybody can express satisfaction about the way the investigation has gone. fred ware from the christian science monitor many thanks. how the european court of human rights has ruled russia's prosecution of for more oil market. was not politically motivated but the judges in strasbourg did however find that his rights were violated during his arrest in two thousand and three he egghead of oil time due course and once russia's richest man is currently in jail for embezzlement among ordering tests
10:08 am
asir brings us the latest now on his case. we are your live airports if you mcbride's to the subject place the particles the edges lawyers that says his prosecution was politically motivated sides of a lot of it but testable proof basically saying that this lawyer said built by sufficient solid proof to back up that the plagues it was make it that it has to be said that in two thousand and three when he was arrested outside of policies had been the financing opposition political groups that if you ask that of course the and the supporters they believe that it is because of his political stand it that he had been aggressive in the first place the prosecution of course had to guide these allegations from the onset now aside from having head of one of the biggest oil companies with the claims of these bullet political maneuvering certainly has made this story one that has been very captivating but as of today the european court of human rights had dismissed these claims that had laid this issue to rest however on another matter that of course he has brought to the court are his claims of the abuse of his rights basically it is reference to his being detained without
10:09 am
justification prior to his trial ever the best again should as well as having been detained in a crowd of unsanitary conditions so all these counts the court did agree with the calls himself a little in his slaves and therefore had asked the all school courts and pay twenty four thousand euros or thirty five thousand dollars in damages to what are called state of the moscow court have reacted to this of course and they said that they will appeal this ruling should they find any grounds to do so on monday night of hot or cold steve filed for parole and as of today the court had a doll which if they had to see it that this request said that they will be reviewing this a good bit of a back that since his address in two thousand and three may have been picked up why is that if you have to get the sense that says his schedule for these a twenty sixteen hour period says the lawyers as he has every right to file for the rule because it says more than half of the substance already now while they're still waiting for answers that some of this of the most people would have said that they will try to give one as swiftly as possible and we can expect a response from the in about two weeks' time. as some of you know cool. woodhouse
10:10 am
rejected the extradition of pain of europe's most wanted war crimes suspect full of . knowledge is challenged with a would ring the massacre of muslims in nineteen ninety five prosecutors say they'll now push for him to be shipped off to the hague sued possible work out that he was out of it is the military for us. who wanted his appeal has been refused by the special criminal court where he's being held right now and the only procedural step that remains is for the justice minister to sign the extradition letters and as soon as that happens you will be on the first plane out of balad towards the hague for war crimes tribunals or the rice c.t.y. no appeal can be lodged on his behalf and despite the fact his lawyer did ask for an independent medical checkup for the law they say that because the court's medics cleared him does not actually mean he is fit to stand trial and both his lawyers and his family say that if he's extradited he won't live to see the trial for
10:11 am
serbia caching for the law that was one of the top conditions for a potential entrance of the into the european union and as a result of course access to billions of dollars worth of grant money the people of this country have already which there are protests and it's not just in this country as well as having a massive protest rally here in belgrade on sunday there was also meeting a protest in today's posner and herzegovina in a town called banja luka and that was a thousand strong rally there the biggest one to be held in support of the of the outside serbia of course rallies like these are expected to be continued and that is why perhaps the officials do want to extradite him as quickly as possible while the people we managed to speak to do say that despite the fact the hague war crimes tribunal or the i c t y as it's known has been established as a legal tool for dealing with crimes committed throughout the pulp. or something
10:12 am
one nine hundred ninety s. not many people here in serbia believe that in their specific cases the hague tribunal is an objective tool they see it more as a political one not a legal one because for them it seems that the courts are biased against serbia bringing justice to thousands of victims that's one self-proclaimed success of the international criminal tribunal for the former yugoslavia and it's ready to deliver some more serbia prepares to extradite former bosnian serb army chief i'm not rich . he's accused of crimes against humanity and already in the one thousand nine hundred five massacre in the village of slipping. despite living on the run for sixteen years and having suffered two strokes the sixty nine year old general has been deemed fit enough to stand trial not one person we have spoken to police he will get a fair trial there surely a lot of evidence to back up the serbs distrust of the i c t y so what do the
10:13 am
people here based their judgment on a lot of people here in serbia are skeptical about the some of the practices of the high hague tribunal and some of its record for instance because slobodan milosevic died in prison without the conviction then some notorious war criminals that are generally acknowledged as a war criminals here in serbia lie but i deny from calls. muslim commanders have actually been acquitted author. sudden their thought. or after the tribunals simply concluded that there was not enough evidence isn't but only means the only example taker in kosovo prime minister how she. has been accused by the council of europe of being in charge of an organ trafficking group and still remains in his post bosnian general nothing or each was known among serb residents
10:14 am
of the district it's. so as a vampire for allegedly cutting the throats of thousands of civilians he walked free cleared of all charges and from a military leader said a little of each accused of mass murders during the balkan war of the one nine hundred ninety s. enter politics i think also of that justice. this many suggest is a very clear indicator that the hague tribunal is being used as a political tool not a legal one part of it was of course the common cause of your true american style or is it justice or something else events that happened in the balkans where the question of law geopolitics was someone else's interests i believe that all the peoples of the former yugoslavia of victims are going to be if we let ourselves be involved in the twentieth century for the first time for the sake of foreign interests and no one emerged as a winner of the balkan crisis was created much earlier has long been unfolding
10:15 am
before our eyes and it has nothing to do with law or justice and the law this tribunal is going to provide a cover for it europe's lady justice is accused of turning a blind eye just really is opinions and has been for some time i'm not at all surprised because when the law of conflict was at its height the western media including the british media was far from objective. understand why the serbian people demonstrated against the rest of the. because they were accustomed to the fact that the western media always gave a bad name during the conflict and the osun for myself a war crime in bosnia a place called people old which was completely ignored by the media to be got photographic evidence of the massacre. of civilians
10:16 am
in the town serbia. ministry of justice is called the ministry of truth keeping them from not each of the trial will have to live up to change but a lot of serbs believe that it stands for anything catherine is or about r t belgrade serbia. now for more on the face of run came out as i can talk see about as good a ski he was the so canadian film director and screenwriter many thanks for being with us here on aussie now what do you think it's not a in the hague a fees extradited. over here in serbia but moderates don't mind walking. or it's very early there. were over here but there are many speculations those who were actually going out with. movie rights there there is that you know or. if you go there were there
10:17 am
rather going. to be actually even certain people or sort of session those of. you were banned from your home but there were guards who are back to the markets is very scary is that we are not seeing many very personable border will be able to work as while we normally now but just in a separate of a principle challenge as they can. but is there enough information do you think to actually try him. well there's a lot of information but the question is written permission of course the number of eight thousand is often cited its members will serve and its products are in fact the number of eight thousand is actually the number of the bosnian muslims from there running the only problem it's enough to drive away in certain instant breakthrough into whose work now
10:18 am
a number of those soldiers were able to break through while the rest were either killed in battle who were the on the surface there are some who come from land mines and a number of them were captured and killed or it's is a war crime there is no denying parts. of the question over there because of it neither ship of the quality of the guard insert your ship especially if they're very proud of your own so it's first year. seven so the genocide was as a meeting with its production everything from each crew plane that there you can sell over the floor in charge of it and that's part of where where he will fill these groups well hundred parts muslims in the moderate or the five hours in groups and people simple math will certainly that's a little bit of two or five minutes for them to take out and sweep and i'm sure
10:19 am
we'll save this for a common article pretty much impossible he would have paid for it and he gets his for taking about twenty four hours from there all before they really do feel so very very many in suspicions for instance which is known for to kill us for various and many others who would claim that all of this so a group of very good person were very suspicious would fall on ok and of course all eyes will feel the hague is indeed extradited to now but it's not of course having canadian etheldreda chance came. many thanks for those thoughts. now moscow is urging and they say not to hump or attempts to organize talks between the libyan government and the opposition russia's taking a mediating role in the conflict foreign minister sergei lavrov said no one especially those who have overstepped the original un resolution should stand in the way of any possible compromise meanwhile nato is not holding back in its
10:20 am
onslaught bunker buster bombs from the u.k. have arrived at an italian air base where pilots will fly missions they believe in targets britain's a ministry of defense says it will also deploy apache attack helicopters to journalist patrick hayes from spite online magazine told r.t. that even with the alliance readying bunker busters in libya might still be a hard not to crack. the situation getting worse for the west in libya i think when they first thought they could kill a swoop in two months ago and basically bomb the country into the move into democracy they thought this was going to be quite a quick process where they could basically keep their hounds you know keep a bit of a distance hold bombs into libya get rid of gadhafi and then everything will be all right now obviously that isn't the case and the introduction of these bunker busting bombs from the apache helicopters are inevitably going to make decision
10:21 am
worse they could bring about severe civilian casualties in libya and i think also reka desperation but we're making a lot of noise and for a lot of very expensive bombs over the last couple of months but those who have done very little else they've ripped the democratic initiative from the libyan people and taken it into the hands of a small elite of western leaders through the no fly zone was implemented as soon as the decision was made by cameron by celko the by obama to intervene in what was effectively a civil war to basically. just throw aside the whole idea of national sovereignty and say we're going to intervene on behalf of the libyan people to poor helpless libyan people who can't save their own matters into their own hands then really it was a very slippery slope from the offsets for a no fly zone to. to potentially ground troops it's very hard to predict what's going to happen but by no means should that be ruled out it could happen and it
10:22 am
could happen very soon they're desperate to try and end this conflict but they don't really know how to do it so i think they're going to throw everything at it and see what sticks. if you want to see any of our stories again just watch on the computer started up you'll find everything there waiting for you including americans are to get emergency alerts from this terror threat sent straight to the paines find out why some say it's a case of big brother spreading public among the public. plan special foster villages for the children are being created across russia which bring happiness to those deprived of parental love read more on our sins are. now russia is pushing hard for a joint european missile defense system with nato spearheaded by the u.s. but the alliance has been slow to take any concrete steps meanwhile a new agreement was the u.s. fighter jets deployed in that poll it as americans plan to spend chill mark a says

10:25 am
safety but as are things than your boss who explains the move as much symbolic as it is it cannot. even before the fukushima exit and germans were among the most resistant to nuclear power in the european union we saw people chaining themselves to railway tracks to stop nuclear fuel getting through in the country which means that only four of seventy nuclear facilities are actually working at the moment these remaining ones planned to be shut down in a decade one analyst told me they could actually shut down theoretically nuclear facilities to morrow the trouble is there's nothing to replace it germany has one of the biggest renewable power facilities. in the european union in fact in the world with the government offering financial incentives for people to go green but even green experts will admit that they don't have the capacity to fuel germany's needs which means that many people are saying really the only realistic alternative
