the team he's believed to be in on a hunger strike denying any charges against him now the reason they were charged this comes after their personal hard drives were seized and detailed mops of the presidential compound and presidential goings on the the daily schedule of mikheil saakashvili was found on that hard drive this resulted in the charges being leveled against them now they will remain in custody until september when they will face a closed doors trial 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 all the only people that think that russia has jumped the gun a few times on labeling people spice. to go with judges are so quick to stick it to anyone i guess is just. remembered and that has been noticed not just by russia but by various key international organizations like the u.n.

last year we saw thirteen people arrested on espionage charges now nine of those were found guilty just last week and hunted down sentences ranging between eleven years and fourteen is now in georgia or itself there has been a bit of an outcry against this we're hearing from a georgian daily newspaper. of what they determined to be determined to be a witch hunt going on against anybody who opposes mikhail saakashvili they say that to start off it was businessmen then it was politicians and scientists and now the new target of this which is journalists opposition say that saakashvili is trying to use these spy saugus as it would to to try and put himself across as a hero in school political points you are. you were. you are. you are are. you. it is no

simple little words because. really the entire russian he's never with. his eyes who are slightly biased. and they say that anybody runs the risk of having themselves labeled as spite of having a dead reputation brought it drug through the mud like that should they stand up against saakashvili or correspond paper all over they would georgia's opposition leader. told us about the evidence the authorities are claiming they've got could have been obtained under pressure. it's not just education one person who always on the rich is giving such kind of explanations they specially had to take into account that she was arrested not the only himself but his wife too and they have a very small child to live but have been released out as a. ways to which this photographer mentioned so of course it's quite difficult for me to say one hundred percent what is behind us that watches the situations i've

seen joy get time to time we are receiving such scandals beach condo have no real legal outcomes and we never saw any kind of real human patients that government the think right now government decided to hire its journalist she is still quite symbolic or because governments are trying just to control everybody and everything until now we didn't receive even one of the dems because they want government to think they seize their reality when you have a chronic problem being cited when you have problems with social and health care when you have a problem with elementary or low for a little and the rights of the people when you lost your country twenty percent of thirty thirty because the old and they get caught then but it is responsible election you should find somebody who will be guilty in everything which is wrong in the country because very old police schools techniques and bases just quite easy to explain its russian size and unique and everything would be wrong in the country

linked with russian so suckers really creating things i kind of a me me and trying to do leak everybody who is against quemoy against his regime and who is fighting for deal democracy in this country he is trying to link was russian. it's clear that around two hundred people could have been killed in a series of explosions that shook the city of up or down in turkmenistan some local reports say the blast happened in the nation's depo although the government continues to claim it was a fireworks factory state officials haven't confirmed any casualties the affected areas cordoned off and closed 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 disruption to telephone lines the special governmental commission has reportedly been set up to investigate thursday's explosions stans long very secretive state with the internet banned until recently r.t.

contacted the editor of human rights website in turkmenistan and gave us the latest information. to the national pressure starting from yesterday people begin returning to the town fires have been put out the locals know 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 many died in hospital the residents of about down are no longer in the state of panic but some are still looking for their family members and i can't 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 are perhaps unhappy as the would like the president to announce a state of mourning or express his condolences it seems that their forty's aren't willing to admit that there are casualties there's no official theory as to the causes of the explosion initially there was an opinion that the fire happened because of very hot weather frankly speaking it's hard for me to tell therefore i

won't be drawing any conclusions as four witnesses many servicemen who were guarding those warehouse died in the fire. you're watching r t coming later this hour for you guilty until proven innocent does the front page coverage of u.s. criminal cases muddying the waters of the justice system when we report on concerns . many trials of the prejudice is coming out surely for you also find out how young indian businessmen are looking to inspire and innovate as they forge a path away from the country's longstanding culture and. next the owner of the news the world rupert murdoch is due to fly in to london to confront a crisis that is troubled british tabloid police are now investigating the deletion of millions of e-mails that were potentially valuable evidence in the phone hacking scandal where the paper's accuse of snooping on the phone messages of politicians celebrities and victims of crime a number of arrests were made on friday including that of andy cool senay former editor of the paper was also served as the prime minister's media chief the

tabloids former royal correspondent was honest arrested both men were later released on bail the prime minister's announced two independent public inquiries as a result of the scandal this is news the world staff are preparing for its final edition this sunday following the announcement it's to close i spoke to john gaunt who used to work for one of murdoch's newspapers he told the media and political circles in the u.k. of two close. many of us were calling for a full public inquiry led by a judge and cameron has been dragged into this position he's now willing to let it happen six trimly embarrassing for at least part of what's called the chipping camden set which is a rural part of britain he lives down there at the weekend rebecca brooks lives down there cern colonist live down there and there's a whole set you can to make socially that set was a different set when labor in power which only blair but 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 and indeed 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 lots bad for democracy so david cameron should start investigating himself that's far as i'm concerned and one would your employer 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 have access to a 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. where you can have your say on that story on our website our teeth are comin our latest poll are running today we're asking is shutting down the news the world the right decision what you think about it over half of you so far have said yes it is right decision because you think rupert murdoch's media dominant should

be ended eighteen percent as you can see on that chart there also say yes but for the reason that such tabloids are an embarrassment to the british media eighteen percent of you believing the news of the world made a scapegoat and ten percent think it for wrong decision to papers current stuff shouldn't be punished also online while you're there tonight can't walk turns into a cat fights in central russia off to go when our model trips up and bumps into work colleague and i speak. and watch our interview with the daughter of charlie chaplin who talks about the ups and downs of life as an actor. the us media has come under fire for its reporting of a number of high profile criminal trials indeed the case of

a single mother casey anthony acquitted of murdering her two year old child earlier this week spoke at the center of heated debate for years i was at his and this to see a check of the reports next there are concerns that public opinions on julie swayed by the headlines rather than the evidence. innocent until proven guilty it's a whole mark principle of the american justice system illegally often shoved aside from the vigor of some of the arrests young african black and brown subjects being 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 flee to breeding suspects into offenses in cases of entrapment entrapment is not legal 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 i find immediately before i see

it as guilty until proven guilty in these cases government is changing 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 in huge headlines on page one when you exonerated it's on page twenty seven below the fold to column inches and your neighbors somehow didn't manage to catch it that day so everyone 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 and i think it's great they have except i did it with from the media assume she was going to go. in the case of former i.m.f. head dominic stress con the media satisfied their gluttonous taste 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 and since the one news oh another lie. this is getting now going this is really good the principles that the u.s. once prided itself in our fire suspects of having to fight their battles publicly the minute they are arrested in attempts to prove their innocence underlining that the discrepancies in the u.s. criminal justice system are alive and kicking the citron out are to me or. still to come this hour heading east we take you to a cool gal most in southern sinai various planes from entrepreneur and fighting

and we welcome you to that could go a region that is on the map located at the very tip of southern siberia it's home to mountains and untouched landscapes but the natural beauty of not so appealing to many of its residents in fact entire villages are becoming ghost towns as young people say things are things are done a boy to find one place where the residents have a good reason to stay she's taken us then. here we are in the village of chast. grande region and for the past ten or fifteen years its population has been steadily increasing here is the reason why. it's monday morning and alexander a former prison guard is it work testing the incoming employees for alcohol. if they're over the limit there is a choice to be cited for a no show and lose thirty percent of their month's salary by jocks three kilometers and be docked ten percent of that months of wage those that we do the testing every

morning regardless of gender or position within the company that could be cool but they will see it only a paycheck and that's a strong incentive not to drink working week. inforced alcohol abstinence is the idea of this man alexander able to cough is the director of the still such plan and likes to extend his influence as far as possible a man of big ideas the very epitome of micro-management for the past fifteen years he's been preaching to his employees how to make good sausages and how to live a good life. while he is a must it's the quality of the product to give you this job in the first place and it's the quality that determines whether you'll keep it which after firing dozens of forecasts for showing up drunk at work or xander started laughter in his employees on the harms of all the whole three times a day during with breaks you got the holy roman emperor charlemagne said the drunk

for the first time should be beaten with a stick those court for the second time should be beaten in public court for the third time should be hanged as a former boxer he's not shy about exercising his rule with an r in face and has built his version of the iron curtain around his plan with dozens of video cameras around the facility employees have no chance to circumvent the law of big brother on the off side thefts and no longer the issue. the rules are very rigid and most people find it hard to comply but those who don't play by alexander's rules don't work here. alexander's drive to set the rules of the game doesn't and within his plan the only corporate tax payer in the village are four thousand people he's taken on a very wide notion of social responsibility using the plants profits he paved a local roads renovated a school and built a church and while he agrees that modesty is a virtue of his fondness of giving guidance and advice is evident wherever he goes

in you are doesn't matter that you come from a village what matters most is to get a good education thank god we've got good teachers and behave well at school is that clear. but this approach has divided villagers the majority believe alexander is a blessing from a minority and primarily those who he is fired on not as impressed. as the old saying goes one man's meat is another man's poison not everybody in this village appreciates alexander philosophy and he did not succeed in spreading it around some people call him a control freak others to resort to more agricultural language his opponents also include some local officials who believe that alexander has too much power that infringes on their own authority but alexander accuses them of not doing enough for the people when i ask him whether he'd like to run for office he's a response was

a resounding no but you're blessed 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 that's for the just i think every successful activity requires discipline strict discipline and it starts with me instead of waiting for somebody to come and do something i do it myself i may offend other people but sooner or later they'll understand that i was doing it for the wrong good. many historians make the case that russians prefer authoritarian leaders and the tackling to deep problems of alcohol addiction and rural isolation need street discipline and total control good or bad but in alexander's case it seems to have proved efficient. r t the village of chester syria who are going to region. character next water sports enthusiasts are flocking to the outskirts of bosco to buy a good bargain to this weekend your up some speed boats are changing hands of the
