5:06 pm
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 warehouses died in the fire. here with r.t. coming up later this hour guilty in till proven innocent does front page come to us criminal cases muddying the waters of the justice system we ask we report our concerns that many trials are being prejudiced. also from passion to profession find out how young indian entrepreneurs to their bright ideas and to cash. next though the owner of the news of the world rupert murdoch is due to fly in to london to confront the crisis of his troubled british tabloid police now investigating the deletion of millions of e-mails that were potentially valuable evidence of the phone hacking scandal the papers accused of snooping on the phone messages of politicians celebrities and victims of crime

5:08 pm
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 last 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 that's what john going to say about it you can have your say too on our web site r t dot com in our latest poll we're asking today is shutting down the

a map we're going to region located at the very tip of southern siberia home to mountains untouched landscapes but this natural beauty it doesn't appeal to all of its residents entire villages in fact become a ghost towns as people move to the cities. to find one place where the residents are very good reason to stay take says that. here we are in the village of chast syria in the core grand 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 them on salary by george three kilometers and be docked ten percent of that month's wage because we do the testing every morning
5:21 pm
regardless of gender or position within the company the could be that they will see it on their paycheck and that's a strong incentive not to drink if you knew working week. enforced 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 he had the very epitome of micromanagement 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 it is a must it's the quality of the product that gave you this job in the first place and it's the quality that determines whether you'll keep it after firing dozens of workers for showing up drunk at work or xander started lateran his employees on the harms of alcor hall three times a day during with breaks. 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 for the time
5:22 pm
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. with their rules a 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 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 wherever he goes
5:23 pm
in you are it 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
5:24 pm
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 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 tackling the deep problems of alcohol addiction and rural isolation need street discipline and total control good or bad in the xander scase it seems to have proved efficient on a boycott r t the village of chester syria who are going to region classic case of what they call tough love there i think. next time water sports enthusiasts are flocking to the outskirts of moscow to brag about going to this weekend yet some speed boats are changing hands at the annual marine fair there want to be silenced
