a rocky rap artist films take off music it to raise awareness over the situation in his country we had an exclusive with a performer. who was. something nice and. pretty. and i welcome to our team to hash the life from moscow i don't know hawkins wherever you are today thanks for joining us. are you security minister has slammed media reports that police have identified those behind the poisoning of the script as ill informed wild speculation on thursday the press association news agency citing their source close to the probe claim the perpetrators have been found and it sets media. police investigating this particular incident back in march believe
12:02 pm
that they do have the identity of two suspects press association says police believe they have identified those who carried out the novel chocolate stark in salzburg police in britain are reported to have identified several people they believe were behind the nerve agent attack on the former russian spy sergei schiphol and his daughter yulia of a media frenzy was sparked by just one tweet from a news agency cited a source claiming that u.k. police have identified the suspects behind the screwball poisoning. looks into the story a source with knowledge of the probe told press association investigators believe they have a dental fied the suspected perpetrators behind the novacek attack on the script files. well this is all allegedly come from a source close to the police investigation into the original attack against the script powells back in march and this source has spoken to the press association they're the ones reporting it and they've said that investigators are apparently
12:03 pm
closing in on the suspected perpetrators of the attack and the police have allegedly been looking at c.c.t.v. footage and they've been examining it and also looking at records of people who had entered and left the country around the time of the attack against the script piles in march because the bomb shell really in all these reports that is that these suspects are allegedly russian it is important to note that these are unconfirmed reports as yet so far it's just come from this one article by the press association but it's done the rounds and it's pretty big headline news here in the u.k. even though we haven't had any updates from the police or the oath or a tease in regards to the investigation that hasn't stopped the press speculation though just to give you an example the sun newspaper has elaborated on the story saying that scotland yard apparently believes that it was a two man hit team that carried out the attack on the script files and that they
12:04 pm
did it on the orders of the kremlin and furthermore that the pair are thought to have left the u.k. for russia the morning after the attack and to quote the newspaper there thought to be under the protection of president vladimir putin so that's the source of reports that are in the press here right now. has consistently denied any claims of wrongdoing even though the british government pointed the finger squarely at the kremlin in the days after the attack saying that it's highly unlikely that russia or did the poisoning and now following these new unconfirmed reports the russian ambassador to the u.k. alexander yack event. has already responded take a listen. no we see only leaks to british media and official statements from the interior ministry or scotland yard and nobody in this world has
12:05 pm
official information concerning what exactly happened in the u.k. . and in a way there you can see the russian diplomat really upping the ante saying well go on then give us these names if you're going to make these allegations we want to see evidence of it and we've just got a line from the russian foreign ministry as well they've said that if the u.k. keeps these alleged russian suspects classified if this case becomes secret well then moscow will regard it as a cover up of the perpetrators so there's clearly a sense of increasing frustration here i would say from the russian side that the british media can sort of go on making these allegations almost indefinitely without a shred of evidence from the or thora season without any official statements from the police investigation to back it up. in other news a u.s.

12:07 pm
employment offers so this is what they have a lot of very unclear statements in the document and furthermore they went on to allege that she has been covertly offering people sex for favors and basically the charge is that she has been operating in pro-gun lobby groups and with the republican party and has been doing so on behalf of the russian government without registering herself as a foreign agent now a lot of the media reports are using words like spy and ask but none of those charges have been filed she is not being accused of doing any military related work no classified information is involved in the case it's simply alleged misuse lobbying and behaving as a lobbyist without registering as a lobbyist on behalf of the russian government spokesperson for the russian ministry has come forward and said they are alarmed by the case and they are calling the charges groundless and politically motivated we've heard they are saying essentially the f.b.i. instead of dealing with its basic duties to combat crime is carrying out

a palace he could see the c.r.s. the riot police during the may day protests to see how operations carried out in regards to syria security now he wasn't on a working day he was on a day off and he was only there to. take part in the police action against the protesters and that itself has sparked a huge backlash here in france i've watched the video and i'm shocked just like the whole world the media poses a number of questions to him and. we need a commission and. fiery what is a private ellie's aide to doing among law enforcement officers this question must be posed to emanuel macron. i can't believe this guy is still in the service of the president of the republic so micron tolerates that the film thing is very violent. colleague usurps police insignia and hits a man to the ground you can't want an exemplary republic and let people think that
12:11 pm
they can be double standards one justice for french citizens and one for presidential workers. if we accept that anyone can pretend to be a police officer we no longer live under state rule of law well who is alexander but what we know about him is that he has been politically active since his twenty's now he was a security aide to some of france's previous ministers but he joined the mark on presidential campaign back in two thousand and sixteen he is an aide to marco chief of staff and he is normally the person in charge of security arrangements he's often seen with the president might call active vents just a few meters away playing see if you plenty of videos of the two together this is a man who really has the president right next to him almost all the time that he's on official duties now this is the official statement that these
12:12 pm
a palace has made this morning in regards to the situation he has been suspended for fifteen days without pay he has been relieved of his functions regarding the organization of security for the president's movements this sanction is punishment for unacceptable behavior and constitutes a final warning it is the most serious punishment ever administered to working at the me well an investigation has been opened by the public prosecutor here in paris they are looking at a number of aspects which could lead to formal charges they are violence by a public official illegal use of a police insignia because he was wearing a police insignia at one point during that may day protests and also pretending to be a police officer now that charge alone if it's made him if he's found guilty carries a sentence of up to a year in jail and a fifteen thousand euro fine. for the french president or the meantime seems to be dodging a straight response on that growing scandal he brushed off any damage done by the

a language with special status meaning any kind of institution organization association will continue to have arabic as a special language and the islam as a culture the muslim religion as a religion as well as the arab national status of israel's arab minority will be preserved one hundred percent the only difference here is that the government and the knesset wanted to underscore the importance of having a jewish emblem as the official emblem a jewish the jewish language of thirty seven hundred years which is hebrew as the official language jewish holidays is the official holidays just like scores of other countries around the world it is absolutely not discriminatory whatsoever. creasing members of white farmers in south africa are considering emigrating as cases of violence against them rise some see russia was
