the owner of the british tabloid accused of hacking into the phones of the victims is heading to london to take charge of the escalating crisis as police make arrests . this is r.t. it's now eleven pm saturday night here in moscow. and first the georgian government says high profile photographers arrested this week were linked to russian special forces and passed on secret information to them and three men have now been charged with spying after being arrested a few days ago our correspondent peter all of us been following the story for us. initially there were four photojournalists arrested on thursday one of those has now been released without charge over the three that remain in custody are all pool reporters meaning that they had very close quarters contact with the president of georgia because saakashvili 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 a not video confession he is in the case it's one of those three that are in custody now with regard to the third member of the team he's believed to be on a hunger strike denying any charges against him though the reason they were charged this comes after their their personal hard drives were seized guns detailed maps of the presidential compound the 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 aren't the only people that think that russia has jumped the gun

a few times on labeling people spies. to go with judges or. anyone i guess is just eleven members and that has been a. very risky position for us last year we saw thirteen people arrested on espionage charges now nine of those were found guilty just last week and handed down sentences ranging between eleven years and fourteen years in torture itself there has been. an outcry against this we're hearing from a georgian daily newspaper they say of what they determined to be determined to be a witch hunt going on against anybody who. poses because saakashvili they say that to start off it was business men bet it was politicians scientists in utah get all this which these journalists to what your position say about saakashvili is trying to use these these spy saugus as it would stoop to try and put himself across as

a hero in school political points you are or are. you are. you are. if you want to. go. and causal zip. it into a russian who's never. arise who are his life. and they say this anybody runs the risk of having themselves labeled as spite and having their reputation brought the drugs to the much like that should they stand up against saakashvili. paid for all of it i was told there's opposition to it and you know budget as you spoke to she said the evidence the authorities are claiming they could have been obtained under pressure. but it's not just education one surgeon who eased the wrist he's giving such kind of explanation they specially had

to take into account that she was not the only life too and they had a very small child who i have been released out. the week. mention so of course it's quite difficult for me to say one hundred percent what is behind of that. situation but i enjoyed your time to time we are receiving such scandals these condos have no real legal outcomes and we never saw any kind of real it's human patients that government you think through right now government decided to hire a journalist she's so hard to go to court because governments are trying to control everybody and everything until now we didn't even one of the did. the large government thing. when you have five hundred mi problem when you have problems with social and health care when you have a problem with. mentary a rule of law and the right the people when you lost your country twenty percent to

thirty thirty. i'm a good person but it is responsibility and you should find somebody who will be guilty never distinguishing strong in the country because very old political take me and they see justice quite easy to explain her attraction to me and to rethink what the wrong country the russian circuitry to creating peace i kind of said you need and are trying to link everybody who is against him or against these regime and we talking for real democracy in this country he's trying to be progression. next tonight has feared that around two hundred people may 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 at the remissions dafoe though the government continues to claim it was a fireworks factory state officials have confirmed any casualties effected areas close to the public now and police are stopping anyone from filming or taking pictures but if people can't contact her friends because of disruption to telephone

lines and special government commissions reportedly now being set up the investigating incident taken a stance along with every secret of state through the internet banned until recently contacted the editor of human rights website in turkmenistan who gave us his latest information. richard international pressure starting from yesterday people began returning to the town fires have been put up to the local so no 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 dan i'm no longer in a state of panic but some are still looking for their family members and i can't say that the situation is common in some remote regions people aren't aware of what's happened as they have no internet access some are perhaps unhappy as a good light the president announce a state of mourning or express his condolences it seems that therefore it isn't

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 if i happened because of very hot weather frankly speaking it's hard for me to tell therefore i won't be drawing any conclusions as for witnesses many servicemen who were guarding those warehouses in the fire. ok to close on most orientation as we get more details and also coming up in the program guilty until proven innocent does the front page coverage of u.s. criminal cases bloodying the waters of the justice system the hours we report i'm concerned that many trials are being prejudiced. the owner of the news the world rupert murdock's to fly to london to confront a crisis of this troubled british tabloid police and investigative deletion of millions of e-mails that were potentially valuable evidence in the phone hacking scandal their papers accused 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 corson

a former editor of the paper who also serves as the prime minister's media chief the tabloids former royal correspondent was also arrested both men were later released on bail the prime minister's announced two independent public inquiry is now as a result of the scandal this is news of the world staff are preparing for its final edition this sunday following the announcement it was to close let's go to john galt who used to work from one of murdoch's newspapers he told the media and political circles in the u.k. a too 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 so extremely 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 regretted brooks lives down there so and columnist lived down there and the whole set you kind of mick socially that said it was a different set when labor in power would totally 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 that's may not all unary people in britain the. 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 as far as i'm concerned and why 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 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. before sir john go on speaking to me earlier on you can have your say as well it's always good to hear from you on our websites not artsy dot com where

asking is shutting down the news of the world the right decision what's your view on that let us know the vast majority of you still saying yes because they think rupert murdoch's media dominance should be ended fifty percent he's saying yes but for the reason that such tabloids are an embarrassment to the british media but fear of a star believing that he was the world's been made a scapegoat for the least popular response is that it's the wrong decision the paper's coverage staff shouldn't be punished ill chance of course they go on like partied all planned what is what you might be interested in these stories of a catfight here i can't walk turns into a catfight in central russia or a model trips up mosquitoes and pops into a colleague and it all goes wrong after that for pictures online also you can watch our interview with the daughter knows best of charlie chaplin he talks about the ups and with downs of life as an actor really interesting chat online tonight want to capture.

the fixes from serious security forces say they were given shoot to kill orders by their superiors when dealing with protesters he would rights watch was published interviews with former soldiers and members of the security agencies involved in government crackdowns this is tens of thousands took part in a rally in the city of hama friday calling for president bashar assad to step down at least thirteen people were killed in mass demonstrations that erupted in other cities as well according to activists tanks were deployed in crackdowns on protesters earlier in the week when we actually one hundred people have been killed since anti-government protests began in march syria's deputy foreign minister has tried told us that r t that any interference in a country is what ended disaster. brah. serious position has been clearly articulated and the global community is aware of the military force in syria hands

so even if the west is think you're going to beat him we would advise them not to syria is the key to the balance of the middle east and the middle of this into israel as we drive this radical islamist western countries are well aware of this but nevertheless they keep hating arabs and syria in particular was a hot political standoff really i was really kind of late because of those cheap moments of success and our progress on the reform struggle for under the leadership of president bashar al assad what happened in syria today expected to spread like an epidemic across other our countries in order to weaken now israel and the west of washington post their civilization a supremacy of values the mindset of us i very carefully followed the signals the west wants from especially view from recent events and i must say that in truth they do not wish us well. just like you know you watch the full interview with syria's deputy foreign minister here on r.t. throughout the day sunday tomorrow. the 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 at the center of the debate for years and is that is a necessary charity reports next there are concerns that public opinion isn't julie swayed by the headlines rather than the evidence. innocent until proven guilty it's a whole mark principle of the american justice system weekly after shoved aside from the vigor of some of the arrests young african black and brown subjects when you sat down in the street and an obsessive kind of way fifty shots six things shots 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 i finally agree for the. guilty until proven guilty in these cases the 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 it he knows 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 the server would still thinks you're a child molester take the not guilty verdict in the casey anthony murder case involving her two year old daughter the court of public opinion will mean split from a court of justice all thanks to nonstarter media coverage of the case for the past three years the. reason i think it's made me i think it really did it become the media is going through the building in the case of former i.m.f.

head dominic stress can a media satisfy their gluttonous taste like stream passion only for the case to crumble i think there should be a. media outlets are required to play your exoneration 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 also it's one years old i live . this is getting now going this is really good now with the principles that he wants once prided itself in our line of fire suspects having to fight their battles for quickly i mean if they are arrested and attempts to prove their innocence underlining the discrepancies in the u.s. criminal justice system are alive and kicking the citron out party going on. coming up in the program heading east we take you on a little bit later the court of ghana agency something siberia is

a place where entrepreneur indeed is singlehandedly fighting for sobriety and better life style he rules with a firm hand that wasn't quote more in his story coming up in a bit also this two. with messing about on the river just outside moscow but why am i in a wet suit to find out in just a few minutes. also make you headlines tonight south sudan has become the world's newest nation following separation from the north thousands of people have taken part in massive celebrations in the city of juba the capital of a new state however the two separated countries haven't yet reached agreement on the borders natural resources all of the state is of a citizens' clashes over disputed territory still continue in some areas in a world news pro palestinian activists that clashed with security forces in two separate incidents in the west bank some of the protesters hail stones at israeli soldiers who responded with several arrests earlier about one hundred pro

palestinian campaigners clashed with security forces in a major israeli checkpoint calling for the return of refugees. in the lazy police of fired tear gas and arrested up to sixteen hundred activists thousands gathered across the capital kuala lumpur those detained included several senior opposition officials in protest which was the country's biggest political rally in years was the culmination of weeks of pressure on the prime minister demanding electoral reforms ahead of national polls expected next year the national front been in power from a six decades now want to grow. calls for change. now to what position you hold in society there are some accusations that could ruin your reputation forever even if they might be proved false mud sticks and the allegations themselves will be enough to destroy careers laurie half and star residents in new york asked people about the thorny issue of the law on sex crimes .

the sexual assault cases of d s k angelina spawns are getting a lot of coverage in the news do you think it's right for women or men to report any sexual encounters they feel uncomfortable with this week let's talk about that there are two rules first time travel leave and the second rule is almost a prostitute proven otherwise if you feel that she's been violated i think reporting is the best idea and how that plays out you know that that's how that plays out the reporting is should be a woman's instinct at what point does it cross over to consider just for television . yet it's a it's a tough line between those two people with just two people it's impossible i think women should not get in situations i think there are lots of times that we put ourselves in situations and we have a messenger inside us that says get out of there and sometimes we don't listen to that message one says no or she says no it's a no if it has been for women and for man one hundred percent. so why do we treat

it more as a woman's issue because of happens more often to women. but men have a pride to go also because of us older brother. about money richie rich and of course for. good that's 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 what's not at this point again we carry our eight years of what's fair changed 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 sexual assaults the. bottom line is that the rule no means no well oh is it good when the power.

from new york bad to russia is time for russia close up to him to take you on a journey two thousand kilometers east of moscow we're still in russia two. and out he welcomes you to the court again region as you can see the muppets the very tip of southern siberia so good mountains and untouched landscapes sounds great but the much real beauty of could go on is not appealing to all of its residents in fact entire villages are becoming ghost towns as people move to the cities of his exam a boy who had managed to find one place there where the residents have a good reason to stay he takes us there now. here we are in the village of chastise syria in vic or grand reacher and put it past santa 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 casting the incoming employees for alcohol. if there are other to limit there is a choice to decide it for a new show and lose thirty percent of them on salary by george three kilometers and be docked ten percent of that month's wage because we do the testing every morning regardless of gender or position when it comes. on their paycheck and that's a strong incentive not to drink you working week. and of course 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 and i have big ideas the very epitome of micromanagement for the past fifteen years he's been preaching to his employees how to lead good sausages and how to live a good life. while it is

a must it's the quality of the product to give you his job in the first ways and it's a quality to determine is whether you'll keep it after acquiring dozens of workers for showing up drunk at work or xander started lecturing his employees on the harms of alcohol three times a day during the breaks but the holy roman emperor charlemagne said the drunk for the first time should be beaten with a stick those quarter the second time should need beaten in public. should be hanged as a former boxer he's not shy about exercising his rule with an r. in first 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 eye of big brother on the outside there are no longer the issue. of the day the rules are very rigid and most people find it hard to comply but those who don't believe

alexander's rules don't work here. alexander strive to set the rules of the game doesn't and within his plan the only corporate tax payer in the village of poor thousand people is taken on a very wide notion of social responsibility using the plants profits he paid on local roads renovated the school and built a church and while he agrees that modesty is a virtue of his fondness of giving guidance and advice is evident whatever 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 in school is that clear. but this approach has divided villagers the majority believe alexander is a blessing or 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 and that everybody in this village appreciates alexander philosophy and he's now fifty and spreading it around

some people call him a control freak others to resort to more great cultural language his opponents also include some local officials who believe that alexander has too much power that infringes on their own authority bill xander accuses them of not doing enough for the people when i ask him whether he'd like to run for office he's response was a resounding no. 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 first i think every successful activity requires discipline strict discipline and it starts with me instead of weaning for somebody to come and do something i do it myself i mean find other people but sooner or later they'll understand that i was doing it for the wrong good now historians make the keys that russians prefer authoritarian leaders and they're tackling the deep problems of alcohol addiction
