as of the former leaders does have sparked international calls for an investigation which every new piece of video with every new piece of video casting a deeper shadow on the official version that he died in crossfire he's a nice and now has the latest from the capital. the n.t.s.b. is saying that gadhafi was killed by bullet wounds also conflicting reports as to where exactly those shots were in his stomach in the right side of his head and the left side of his head it's looking very shady and then this brutal video that went viral the mainstream media showing it more than twenty four hours constantly of gadhafi whether or not he was dead or alive very unclear at first in the first couple of shots that he did it appears that he's alive he actually goes and touch his head wipe some blood away and then there's a time and it seems that he was clearly dead in those later pictures the same thing with one of his sons that was captured in syria first pictures of him standing against a wall smoking a cigarette very clearly alive then the video cards and all of a sudden he's dead so really pressure coming from around the world both from the
7:02 pm
west and other countries that were very very critical about nato is mission here in libya by that something needs to be done about an investigation the u.n. is planning on launching an investigation and russia's foreign minister was very clear that russia and many of many countries and officials around the world feel like the way gadhafi was killed in these pictures that we saw were perhaps not the best possible way to go to go through with it the footage shown on t.v. proves that he was captured alive and wounded and after that he was killed later there were reports that a convoy carrying the convoy was attacked by nato planes and after that the rebels captured members of that convoy it has been repeated numerous times that nato planes are new have a u.n. mandate to ensure a no fly zone over libya and the convoy wasn't producing any threat to civilians on the ground and could be a legitimate target. actions pose a number of questions as well. as speaking of that no fly zone which of course how
7:03 pm
this mission began back in march the u.n. looking into when it will officially and how russia pushing for that mission to end the soonest possible a day when you know october thirty first but it has to be said officially nato mission. he's very much alive here in libya gadhafi is body is in a walk in refrigerator now in misrata and already way beyond the twenty four hour mark to have who had been buried by muslim tradition the official liberation ceremony will take place in benghazi were very able to take place there that of course was the original rebel stronghold where their whole fight for freedom began it will take place there instead of the top of all because the security situation here is still very tense just a couple of days ago there was a shootout between n.t.s.c. troops and the doubt few loyalists alone mostly celebrations have been taking place obviously officials the interim officials are worried that there could be some kind of violence here in the capital very few people obviously were on the streets asking what's next for libya they can answer that question my god so world analysts
7:04 pm
are certainly looking into what will happen will there be chaos here one of the main fears is that libya could break out into some kind of tribal war that there's going to be this hour the world community has begun to think what will we see how being here in the upcoming months and years. and a son in the international community try to get to the bottom of qaddafi's death and he could very well provide the answer everyone's looking for. it's all of them i know we grabbed it i hit him in the face some fighters wanted to take him away and that's when i shot off twice in the head and in the changed so basically verified to say that it didn't like the idea of taking the can alive and here also if you don't hit what he calls khadafi is shot and of old reyna on which they name of cut out his second wife syfy and the date of the marriage had been great but dr benjamin thought that scene at the dentist and us think time doesn't expect anyone
7:05 pm
to be held accountable for the killing of. gadhafi was clearly executed in fact it was executed twice once by the nato air strike intercepted his caravan and tried to kill him and then once he was caught by the ground forces again executed officially more official it's questions who they expect to hold accountable one individual soldier who in a frenzy of battle did it the militia from misrata which that individual was a part of the nato forces there in a sec bombed the caravan and killed most of the people apparently forty or fifty who killed but just didn't get khadafi my own guess is that will be a lot of talk here and in the end nothing will happen because everybody inside libya and also outside libya will be basically glad that he's dead and not alive. this is still ahead for you this hour double trouble return faces

world now over the weekend approximately nineteen protesters were arrested in downtown orlando in florida one of them was an armed u.s. army soldier and a man in a wheelchair their crime not moving when the police officers told them to move even though they say they were simply trying to stand up for their first amendment freedom of speech rights to call out attention to the corruption both in wall street and in washington now one of the biggest issues of the occupy wall street protests today is the heavy handed police tactics by the officers one protesters are simply they say making their voices heard trying to get politicians to listen to them in a country that they say no longer represents their democratic needs or democratic interest do seem to be growing we've seen increasing numbers of protesters out in the streets from seattle to chicago to los angeles some of the people i've spoken to today in fact say they're they're starting a small scale protest in upstate new york it seems like this movement is popping up
7:08 pm
all across the country faster than authorities know how to handle it one of the interesting facts that many of the protesters here have cited both to me and other reporters working for our teeth is the fact that the united states while it only represents about five percent of the total world's population has the highest one of the highest incarceration rates across the globe in fact a quarter of all world inmates are housed in prisons here in the united states this is one of the biggest issues that's concerning protesters here many of whom like to point out the fact that you people on wall street have been arrested or punished for corporate crimes while innocent civilians seem to be jailed for simply speaking simply stepping off the curb for example or marching in demonstrations that they say are constitutionally protected here in the legal system of the united states. that is news to catherine of reporting from new york and our correspondents in america because they are going on to corporate demonstrations there for you and you can head to our chief twitter stream to get all the latest on dates and in one of

7:16 pm
they said mission leaves m i five facing awkward questions in an inquest they were the only party trying to limit and they did take it for granted that they can just brush embarrassment from the carpet and i said if it had been consulting for them or working with them and he died in a highly. in the tourist circumstances on their patch then you have of course they would be questioned about not offering protection to people and also not offering protection to the london public you know. as this trial playing into ten left across the city living in kid died a slow and painful death caused by the lethal radioactive substance polonium two ten the unsolved case has been the thorn in the side of british russian relations with moscow refusing to extradite abundance chief suspect has some claim britain's pursuit has blurred the line between fact and fiction there's a whole host of unofficial allegations. how we go from
7:17 pm
a death which however horrible to an accusation that mr lugovoy was responsible is is ludicrous i mean it's all looks very fishy joy an unbiased observer but the diet that we are being fed in britain through the media. short circuits a lot of that this is where it all began the millennium hotel in central london and it's what happened in here remains the biggest question mark live in yankee met lugovoy for breakfast here the day he fell ill and that's when he's alleged to have been poisoned forensics did find a contaminated teapot but the link from back to lou void is still unproven it's hoped the coroner's inquest will determine once and for all what exactly went on behind these walls something c.c.-t.v. missed the police say they have new evidence but won't disclose it until they conclude their own investigation as for lugovoy he says he'll answer any questions they've got not in person of course but via video link i have been it r t london.

parties are running its limits and their secular opponents will compete for two hundred seventeen seats in a parliament which must draft a new constitution and form an interim government comes ten months after former president dean the was ousted in the first popular uprising of the arab spring revolt its. support for the occupy wall street movement is growing across the world to include even iran and north korea many are wondering what exactly has united so many people in protest nori havanese to our own resident reporter in new york went to the center of the action to ask people what brought done there. a month into the occupy wall street movement is there a unified method this week let's talk about that there isn't a centralized message a lot of people say that's the problem and i think that's actually a strength that we currently have. as a movement where we're just over
7:24 pm
a month old. october seventeenth was our one month anniversary and and i think it's it's early to to be issuing any statements or anything along those lines any any sort of movement major movement or revolution or anything like that throughout history has issued a statement within their first month it feels a little absurd to me to expect there to be one core message when this is a movement that's wanting to be inclusive that wants everyone to have a voice and everyone has their own life they have their own struggles is it i mean today's world is a sound bite no one has the tension and a.d.d. world and they need a sound but are there often that the current dominant paradigm and where looking to give examples of what alternative paradigms could exist i tried to come in for a couple of balls so a lot of people are saying that the message isn't unified and that's an issue that the movement is having its problem communicating but i don't see it as an issue.
7:25 pm
because you feel like it's unified i think it is ultimately this is a big battle of ideas there's fifteen different worldviews per square foot and. people are talking and people are listening it's like the best university in the world but there's no unified message a lot of people don't seem to really understand why they're here they can articulate it so you know if this sort of makes them think about why they're here well there in the alternative do you think that that's a problem with the movement is that there isn't a unified message not necessarily i think there's a profiling theme to it everybody's dissent. franchise with something you're saying education and health care some guy over there just said shipping jobs out of the country through their stuff with part of it i mean there's not one thing i just said it's not just one thing and there's a bunch of different reasons other part of that too i mean i agree with the fact that they're shipping jobs of the country we don't need anymore so how would you sum it up in one clears that tends what the message is here. little going to comic
7:26 pm
reform the whole of both parties i think we want to party so it seems like everyone here feels like there is a unified message and that is there isn't a unified message which they feel like is the very strike of the movements. and when the pressure has that are shaking up the u.s. now going to a website that's going to dot com you can find out about i think former u.s. marine who stood up to such a policeman to become an international spokesperson for the occupy wall street movement that and more to call feet. into one show russian so he struck it sets off from a french space base in the tropics carrying the he's fast satellite that a geisha system i mean to become a rival has g.p.s. .
