says ranging between eleven years and full. in itself. against this we're hearing a daily newspaper. of what they meant to be determined to be a witch hunt going on against anybody who opposes because saakashvili they say that to start off it was businessmen. politicians scientists and. journalists should say. he is trying to use these spice saugus us it would suit to try and put himself across as a hero in school political points you are. using. you are. you are moving into lot of group a group that is going to control the world it will seem right because those who treat their clients really the entire russian jews never produce or criticize the words life were. here. and they say that anybody runs the

risk of having themselves labeled a spotlight and having their reputation brought drug through the mud like that should they stand up against saakashvili. or all of our reporting for us there george's opposition leader nino burjanadze told on t.v. 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 right has is giving such kind of explanations they specially we had to take into account that she was arrested not only himself but his wife too and they have a very small child live but have been released now because they. always do each of these programs mention so of course it's like this before me to say one hundred percent what is behind us that budget is a situation that i'd enjoy a good kind of time with everything said scandals but beach condo had no real legal

outcomes and we never saw any kind of real human patients the government keeping right now government decided to read journalist reply symbolical because the government we're trying to control everybody and everything until now we didn't just keep even one that we didn't. know what some of the existing refused to really see when you have a kind of big government being cited when you have problems with social and health care when you have a problem we. mentary a rule of law and the rights of the people when you lost your country twenty percent of thirty thirty because they yell and they get caught then but it is responsibility you should find somebody who will be guilty in everything we can go wrong in the country big very old political technique and basically just quite easy to explain just russian sobs and to me and everything would be wrong to the country not so saakashvili creating please i cannot say mimi and trying to delete

everybody who is they gave him a lawyer gave his regime and who is fighting for deal democracy in this country he is trying to link was russian. it is fair and that around two hundred people may have been killed in a series of explosions that shook the city of a down in turkmenistan some local reports say the blast happened at a munitions depot so the government continues to claim it was at a fireworks factory state officials have not confirmed any casualties the affected area is closed to the public and police are stopping anyone from filming or taking pictures many people can't contact their families or friends because of the disruption to telephone lines a special government commission has reportedly now been set up to investigate the incident turkmenistan has along have been a very secretive state and with the internet banned until just recently r t contacted the editor of a human rights website in turkmenistan who gave us this latest information. to the

actual question starting from yesterday people begin returning to the town fires have been put up to the locals you 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 done 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 common in some remote regions people aren't aware of what's happened as they have no internet access some are perhaps unhappy as they would like the president to announce a state of mourning or express his condolences it seems that they're thought to stand 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 warehouses died in the fire. and you are with r t coming up later

this hour guilty until proven innocent because the front page coverage of the u.s. criminal case is muddied the waters of the justice system. report on concerns that many trials are being predators plus. from passion to profession find out how young indian entrepreneurs and turned their bright idea. to the owner of the news of the world rupert murdoch is due to fly in to london to confront the crisis at his trouble the british tabloid police are now investigating the deletion of millions of e-mails that were potentially valuable evidence in the phone hacking scandal the paper is 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 colson a former editor of the paper who has also served as the prime minister's media channel the tabloids

a former royal correspondent was also arrested both men were later released on bail the prime minister has announced two independent public inquiries as a result of the scandal meanwhile news of the world staff are preparing for its final edition a sunday calling to be announcement it's to close john gone to use to work for one of murdoch's newspapers says the media and political circles in the u.k. are too close. they've closed down the news the world so up to five hundred people have lost their jobs and most of these people were not only is the world when these allegations of hacking happened because what's going to happen now is the free press in the united kingdom which is something we really pride ourselves on there's a real danger now we're going to get overregulation by the government as a direct result of this of part of its behavior by some journalists on the news of the world and also is a major problem because i think that successive governments in britain but the labor government are in control before and now david cameron the conservatives have

been too damn close to rupert murdoch and other newspaper proprietors but all of that is too cozy and too comfortable if you don't have and we're. 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 have become too close over the last thirteen or fourteen years and i believe that last month no ordinary people in britain their views have nor really be represented either in the newspapers or in the political arena that's bad for democracy so david cameron should start investigating himself as far as i'm concerned she extremely embarrassing for him because the former editor of the news of the world and the ecosystem of course became his press secretary i was would your employer a man who's already had to resign over phone hacking why would you take him to the

heart of government where he could have 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 and of course you can have your say on that story on our website tom in our latest poll today we're asking. the world the right decision more than half of you agree that rupert murdoch's media dominance should be finished sixty percent also say yes but for the reason that such tabloids are an embarrassment to the british media fourteen percent of the viewers think it's the wrong decision altogether and that the papers. should not be punished and of the least popular answer is that the news of the world has been made the scapegoat. while you're online you can also check out some other stories we're covering including america's copyright clampdown with tough new restrictions for downloading and sharing films and music plus. the sky is not the limit.

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 she. is crazy and i think it's great they have accepted they did it with from the media assume she was going to to go. in the case of former i.m.f. head dominique strauss kahn the media satisfied their life mistakes 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 in as american i'm set someone new zone i. this is getting now going this is really getting the principles that he wants once
