of murder victims is expected in london to deal with the crisis before the last edition goes to press. five pm in moscow i mattress or good to have you with us here on r.t. our top story georgia's government says the high profile photographers arrested this week this week were linked to russian special services and passed on secret information to them three men have now been charged with spying after being arrested thursday for more on this we go live to our he's peter oliver standing by . hello peter so tell us more about the accusations made against these photographers well initially there was full photojournalist arrested on thursday one of those has now been released without charge over the three that remain in custody are all the role of the pull it is meaning that they had it's very close call it is. contact with the president of georgia because saakashvili now. we are

hearing this one of those who are is in custody has confessed on video to having been a spy to be sending information to moscow and in that video confession he is implicated it's a not a one of those three that are in custody now with regard to the third member of the team he's believed to be in on a hunger strike denying any charges against him you know the reason they were charged this comes after their personal hard drives were seized and detailed maps of the presidential compound and presidential goings on the the the daily schedule of mikheil saakashvili was found on that hard drive this resulted in the charges being leveled against them they will remain in custody until september when they will face a closed doors trial. and russian often plays the role of the bad guy in georgian politics. take on others but russia is accused of being

a little quick on the draw when it comes to labeling people spies they say that there isn't enough evidence to link these people to to moscow and says that the russians aren't the only people that think that russia has jumped the gun a few times on labeling people spies. the school knew near to go with georgians are so quick to stick a spy label on to anyone i guess is just a level of democracy and that has been noticed not just by russia but back to risky international organizations like the un which is in full the russian foreign ministry there saying that russia didn't have anything to do with these people who are being charged with espionage in georgia. america has to be something of a pattern here with georgia slapping the spy label on quite a few people in recent times tell us more about that well yeah that's right exactly last year we saw thirteen people arrested on espionage charges now nine of those were found guilty just last week and hundred thousand sentences ranging between

eleven years and fourteen years now in torture itself there has been a bit of a an outcry against this we're hearing from a georgian daily newspaper they say of what they tend to be determined to be a witch hunt going on against anybody who opposes because saakashvili they say that the soffit was businessmen that it was politicians and scientists and now the new target health this witch hunt these journalists now the russian officer the joint you know position of a coupon the total position say that. it's saakashvili is trying to use these the spice office as it would to to try and put himself across as a hero in school political points and they say that anybody who runs the risk of having themselves labeled a spy and having their reputation brought a truck through the mud like that should they stand up against saakashvili. every person who is criticizing saakashvili he said was seen all of them just

beginning for me some. serious place we can sell fresh friendly. trade in the midst of the people and if you have a different point of view if you are close to suffer a position if you have huge meets the retirees still lose their job to find finding your prophets drugs or god so this is a typical soviet country modernized i call it would there my soviet union. which is that all things i mean my country. georgia opposition is saying that because saakashvili used the spy allegations to school political points now this comes out fifty three people have been charged with espionage saying that they passed information from georgia to moscow. for a live for us in moscow thanks for the report. it's figured about two hundred

people may have been killed in a series of explosions that rocked the city of abidjan in turkmenistan some local reports say the blast happened at an ammunition depot but the government continues to claim it was a fireworks factory state officials have not confirmed any casualties the affected area is cordoned off enclosed for entry police are being ordered to detain anyone who tries to take pictures or mobile phone footage of the site. many people can't contact their families and friends because of this rushing to the fault lines a special governmental commission is reportedly been set up to investigate thursday's blast turkmenistan has a lot of it of a very secretive state with the internet banned until recently our team contacted the editor of a human rights website there who gave us the latest information. we're treated international pressure starting from yesterday people began returning to the town the fires have been put up to the local snow helping soldiers to clean up according to reports the number of casualties and those who died because of injuries has reached nine hundred but we have to verify this information i cannot guarantee its

reliability but it's certainly more than two hundred people and many died in hospital the residents of about dunn are no longer in a state of panic but some are still looking for their family members and i can say that the situation is calm in some remote regions people aren't aware of what's happened as they have no internet access some or perhaps unhappy as the would like the president to announce a state of mourning or express his condolences it seems that there are thirty sons willing to admit that there are casualties there's no official theory as to the causes of the explosion and usually there was an opinion that the fire happened because of very hot weather frankly speaking it's hard for me to therefore i want to draw any conclusions as four witnesses many servicemen who were guarding those warehouse last night in the fire. stay with us here on our team coming up guilty told proven innocent does front page however give us criminal cases muddy the waters of the criminal justice system the report on concerns that many trials are

being prejudiced. and find out how young indian businessmen are working to inspire and innovate is the order passed away from the country's long standing culture. but first the owner of the news of the world paper rupert murdoch is going to fly to london to confront the crisis at the troubled british tabloid police are now investigating the deletion of millions of e-mails that were potentially valuable evidence. in the phone hacking scandal papers accused of snooping on the phone messages of politicians celebrities and even crime victims a number of arrests were made friday including that of any colson a former editor of the paper who served as the prime minister's media chief tabloids former royal correspondent was also arrested both men later released on bail the prime minister has announced to independent public inquiries as a result of the scandal meanwhile the news of the world staff is preparing for its final edition this sunday following the announcement that will close john gone who used to work for one of murdoch's newspapers says media and political circles in

the u.k. are too close. many of us were calling for a full public inquiry led by a judge and cameron has been dragged through this position he's now willing to let it happen six truly embarrassing for at least part of what's called the chipping condom set which is a rural part of britain he lives down there at the weekend rebecca gross lives down the sun columnist lived down there and the whole set you can to make socially but set was a different set when labor in power tony blair got all of it is too cozy and too comfortable if you don't have a real democracy you have to have a separation between the press surely the political establishment and the government of the day you also need to have separation between the judiciary and those two areas in britain and the united kingdom they've become too close over the last thirteen or fourteen years and i believe that last may not all of neri people in britain their views have not really been represented either in the newspapers or

in the political arena that's bad for democracy so david cameron should start investigating himself that's far as i'm concerned i want would you employ a man who's already had to resign over phone hacking allegations why would you take him to the heart of government where he could about access to top secret dossier as an information it's a sorry sorry day let me tell you not just for the british press but for british democracy. you can have your say on our website r.t. dot com join in our latest online poll they were asking you what is shutting down the news of the world the right decision twenty eight percent says yes and that such tabloids are an embarrassment for the british media thirty three percent also say yes but for a different reason they think rupert murdoch's media dominance should come to an end twenty two percent believe it's the wrong decision that the paper staff shouldn't be punished and seventeen percent says the news of the world has been a mistake. to stick you with us on r.t. dot com also a click away our catwalk turns into

a catfight. bad out in central russia a model trips up and bumps into her colleague. and our interview with the daughter of charlie chaplin who talks about the ups and downs of life as an. egypt is returning to normal after friday's demonstrations filled tahrir square in cairo and other cities huge public anger at the interim government is dragging its heels on the reforms demanded when they toppled president mubarak the interim leaders had been sent the strongest message yet but they're not doing enough with tens of thousands turning out for the biggest protests in months gyptian they're also frustrated at the sluggish pace of prosecuting senior officials and police officers accused of brutality during february's uprising professor mark almond from

oxford university says the revolution has only added years back anomic woes and not brought about the change people want. the expectations that the fall of mubarak would be followed by a change of regime hasn't really come about and his family and closest bruni's have been imprisoned or accused will go on trial next month of all sorts of crimes against the people against the interests of country but of course field marshal tantawi and the all the members of the military ruling council with his appointees to great extent across egypt people don't see that the local both the local head of the stray she has changed so there's a sense that the old regime was decapitated but minus mubarak it's still in power ironically one of the big reasons of the revolution people's economic discontent social this contentious it was a sharon influence and so actually the process of getting rid of a barak has made in the short term the economy worse i do think really there's an

easy answer to egypt's economic problems because global oil prices global food prices and so on are rising and egypt is a centrally important. and us media has come under fire for its reporting of a number of high profile criminal trials the case of a single mother casey anthony acquitted of murdering her two year old child earlier this week was at the center of heated debate for years as he's honest i see it you're going to reports there are concerns that public opinion is unduly swayed by headlines rather of in evidence. innocent until proven guilty it's a whole mark principle of the american justice system legally after shoved aside from the vigor of some of the arrests young african black and brown. sat down in the street and an obsessive kind of way fifty shots sixty sets laying on our stomach in our back as we run or as we walk or flee to beating suspects into

offenses in cases of entrapment entrapment is not. entrapment is getting someone to do something that they would normally do to perp walks that parade suspects in handcuffs for the world to see. to a media frenzy devouring some cases and not others and finally it could be thought of as guilty until proven guilty and these cases have a government a change in the laws so are you presumed guilty from the get go and how much of a role does the media play if you're accused of the most crime it's going to be a huge headlines on page one when you exonerated it's on page twenty seven below the fold to column inches and your neighbor somehow didn't manage to catch it that they certainly would still thinks you're a child molester not guilty take the not guilty verdict in the casey anthony murder case involving her two year old daughter the court of public opinion remains split from a court of justice all thanks to nonstop media coverage of the case for the past

three years. it's crazy making it's made me except i get it from the media it's been through the guilty in the case of former i.m.f. head dominic strauss kahn the media satisfied their life in this case with extreme passion only for the case to crumble i think there should be a. media outlets are required to play your exoneration up as big and as long as your accusation this is rarely the case as dubious practices in the criminal justice system spread so does the finger pointing and questioning the future of human rights in the us where as we go on as americans once it's the one new zone unlike. this is getting now going this is really good now going the principles that he wants once prided itself in our fire suspects are having to fight their battles publicly the minute they arrest and attempts to prove their innocence underlining the discrepancies in the u.s.

response was a resounding no with your blessing i think the whole purpose of power is to create to make life around you better and in this regard i have all the power that i need as for the iron fist i think every successful activity requires discipline strict discipline and it starts with a mean instead we mean for somebody to come and do something i do it myself i mean offend other people and sooner or later they'll understand that i was doing it for the wrong good. many historians made the case that russians prefer authoritarian leaders and that tackling the deep problems of alcohol addiction and rural isolation need street discipline and total control. in the xander scase it seems to have proved efficient axon avoid artsy the village of just those syria who are going to region finally there's news blog matter what position you hold in society there are some accusations that could follow you around for ever and even if they are proved false mud sticks and the allegations and sounds good enough to

ourselves in situations and we have a messenger insiders that says get out of there and sometimes we don't listen to that message one says says no or she says no it's a no if the same for women and for a man one hundred percent. so why do we treat it more as a woman fashion because of happens more often to women. men have a pride because of us older brother. about money rich get richer the poor gets more . because this is just another way for women to get rich. so do you think it's fair that the laws generally tend to side with women. and i think it's impossible to really say what's fair or what's in the eyes at this point again like ari ari is that what's fair to do so much i think in general my inclination is to say yes it is because women have for the most part of been the victims for so many years that you always have to side more with them in order to make it equal it's like

affirmative action in a way like you have to do something to make things better so that they're not always the victims no matter how you feel about the lines of the actual estelle's the bottom line is that the rule no means no will always be a good one to follow. stay with us here on our t.v. headlines up next after a short break. in the world of.
