a 100 days away who knows maybe another woman too will cool out of the woodwork to feed the intelligence rumor mill. now in london mother is accusing police there for racial profiling her family after her 12 year old son was dragged from the during the night and handcuffed because his toy gun was suspected of being the real thing we talked to say through what happened. that night on that friday and said just crossed over into saturday early hours of the morning and we've been absolutely in the living room and you know cause i went to the door i followed him and we just missed because it weighed you know about 4 or 5 officers holding all rifles and they had sizes red beans you know but i. my head's. about something out of
9:06 am
a movie. but put your hands up you know which i did. all of us did 2 other daughters use it when the slave was in front of may which is. explained so i haven't got any firearms i have or any illegal in the house. i did them someone that was there but it was very. straight ahead just like you have to come up the property one by one my my son had to learn he just took his own here. you have no shoes on and i just arrested him immediately. well dozens of officers descended on the family's home with sniffer dogs and found 12 year old car and his plastic pellet gun the raid came about after a passer by alerted police saying they saw through been living room window that there was a black male holding a firearm on the sofa chis mother says that the metropolitan police racially
9:07 am
profiled her family when she claims has never been in trouble with the law and police chiefs to say there has been no misconduct and that the boy was let go when it was clear that the toy gun was not a regular firearm said the case is still being referred to the independent office for police conduct karr's mother described the effect is had on her family. at least i was angry as well. quote the way then that feeling of you know why have you 'd not involved in our own home 'd qualified to even making 'd in a roundabout way just before the well you know 5 hours supports take them seriously we have to follow that mark which i mean agreement we just disagree on how they voted but mainly they would say you know this is the gang related crime in the area the fact the clothes that mail it was the mention of him being a black male obviously you know the poor all the face things you know they take
9:08 am
very seriously and you know didn't quite explain why such exception false but it just said you know it was just doing their job basically are more than aware of how 'd fortunate young black men are stopped and searched by the police to clean my area and they were most talkative and you know they make my complaint straight away i went to the chief. superintendent and he started talking about operation tried and he started talking about you know getting laid quiet and making those associations and he read me out to look for that was made. by the passer by and there was very little evidence there at all but that was the fact it was a black now and i think that that could have something to do with it as a mother arkansas probably full of mothers who have young boys very very fearful of boys in today's society but certainly young black boys are more more fearful of him
9:09 am
growing up he's not even been yet well so i'm so scared when he gets to 1516 how the police are the perceived him how they're going to treat interest obviously see there's a big big threat right now and they came to the door clearly 12 your child immediately arrested him. and put that perception of thought by arms that was the suspicion so and i'm terrified. now looks like that the shoe is on the other foot over at facebook because it's now taking me you to court claiming it's competition investigations are actually breaching is employees privacy is our europe correspondent peter oliver. well facebook all suing the e.u. antitrust regulators for what it says are necessary demands for information including personal details of facebook employees it's all part of an ongoing investigation by brussels into facebook marketplace which allows users to buy and
9:10 am
sell goods on the platform so far facebook of handed over $300000.00 documents but they say no more will be sent towards brussels from them the exceptionally broad nature of the commission's requests means we would be required to turn over predominantly irrelevant documents that have nothing to do with the commission's investigations including highly sensitive person information such as employees medical information personal financial documents and private information about family members of employees facebook have also said that they will petition the e.u. court it looks emberg to prevent any further data requests until this lawsuit is heard facebook are coming at this breach of employee privacy as they see it anyway read in legal tooth and claw but this is of course the same facebook that was slap bang at the center of the cambridge analytical scandal back in 28 seeing when the private data of 87000000 facebook users was harvested and passed on
9:11 am
to 3rd parties that scandal prompted their boss to have to make quite a few apologies that was a big mistake now was a mistake and it was my mistake and i'm really sorry that this happened i'm sorry and i'm sorry for it well the site say that their offices of acted completely within the normal procedures and they deny any claims of well anything but by facebook it's also highly unlikely considering facebook's past that they're going to get a lot of public sympathy as they file is lawsuit against the ongoing investigation into them. now the trumpet ministration is reportedly sending at least $100.00 more militarized federal agents to the city of portland in oregon as nationwide protests against racism continue into a 3rd month it's been confirmed that the much criticized task force will stay in the city until the anti-racism demonstrations are over $22.00 protesters were

been developed into bipartisan consensus is fair for us to say that. you know as the new political correctness and united states. still ahead for you this north korea might be facing its 1st acknowledged case of coronavirus and it blames who defected to from the sun will have a look at the day's host just after the break. and when else should seem wrong why don't we all just don't hold. any gold yet to shape out this day become educated and in gains from it it was betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart when you choose to
9:19 am
look for common ground. you can't be both with the yeah you're right. a. right. though again now slowly and with some trepidation countries are trying to get back
9:20 am
on their feet after their pandemic lockdowns with one eye on the fear the 2nd wave british prime minister though says that in europe it's already here. to do is take swift and decisive action where we think that the risks are starting to to bubble up again and let's be absolutely clear about what's happening in europe in the dark among some of our european friends i'm afraid you are starting to see in some places the signs of a 2nd wave of the pandemic while the numbers do make it pretty clear to cases around the world almost trebled between june 1st and last friday hot spots are shifting to infections are accelerating in some places now several factors are being blamed from the rush to reopen to people rebelling against mask and also ignoring distancing so some nations are taking action france is insisting on wearing masks at work and on distancing and some travel restrictions are back to
9:21 am
such as britain's u. turn on arrivals from spain you must now isolate for 2 weeks germany is demanding the same of people to come in from the united states and there are renewed lock downs in asia also but even the world health organization admits that countries can't stay single dog forever so let's get some analysis here and talk to dr mohammed minear he's a viral it just at britain's lancaster university and joins us now in a very welcome thanks for your time this afternoon would you agree with the british prime minister that it is likely that europe is now experiencing a 2nd way. well to some extent if we look really onto the data we can see a significant increase in the number of cases in many countries like germany spain especially in the gut only region and in belgium as well so if we really look onto what has been happening month before we can see that has been a significant reduction and that's what we classify the 2nd mate that we see
9:22 am
substantial decrease in the number of cases for 14 days and then it if it start appearing that it is the 2nd of a and that's what we are observing so certainly there are concerns on the 2nd yes and why it is happening do you think is it just stand to countries easing the restrictions they had in place before. well the important thing here is that when we put the lock downs locked on do not. faction what it does it just put under the baby for some time an event where we are opening up again we know that our own 80 to 90 percent people are cysts still susceptible to the infection they don't have antibodies again so any change in the social behavior will bring that infection back into the to the human population but the important thing at this moment is really that the outbreaks that we're going to see in a smaller level of the community surprise that need to be controlled before this become uncontrollable outbreak and if we can properly do that by applying
9:23 am
appropriate to my years and testing at the right time so that it doesn't go beyond the level of control then we will have a control otherwise it will get you on from one place to another place and what communities credibly are already seeing again into europe particularly so that is really worrying so you believe that mistake is still plenty of time to react then to prevent this going back to where we were before. well certainly over the last 7 months we have learnt enough what has been working before what kind of treatments we are having now what test cap abilities we do require to really screen population and how to stop these smaller clusters so taking that experience into account i think certainly we are in the position to tackle that but i think that again is coming to the point when we have to have an international order at least continent level of approach to really apply before we can claim any benefit out of it because if each country start to operate individually and we start looking on to you know
9:24 am
other countries if they are going to impose this restriction onto the travel and so on and it's not going to help at all and that's what we have learned through the time that until the national collaboration or at least at the continent level collaboration is not there we're going to see these cases coming up back again at the same time there's always the economic argument is in the and we've just heard the w.h.o. also saying we admit that countries can't see themselves off from the rest of the world forever. so what would be the answer then at what point would you see the disappear well absolutely i think we can stay in the lock on for our we have to come out into the life however this whole phase has to be in a stepwise order and with a very cautious stop every time we take into for example opening up into the bars and restaurants for example i'll just give you a perspective of catalonia so they have like every 8000 cases in the last 14 days with a look at loading of agent and the majority of those cases have been into the bars
9:25 am
and restaurants and into the food makers and vegetable bakers. very very social distancing is really difficult to manage and so those are really the the lessons that we have to learn on to really claim any benefit on to what we have achieved so far there and you do hear the argument that says look if you look at the facts 99 percent of people in. coronavirus recover so why not just protecting the vulnerable the elderly those with underlying health conditions and allow the rest of the population to get on with life as they were before what in your view what would be wrong with that argument though if it is certainly a valid point however there are certain carry it in there so one of the primary objective is not really to protect but protect the young people or the healthy people all the people will not be having. a god sequenced of the diseases just to protect them so that all to protect other people that are in the vicinity or devil
9:26 am
come across so shielding the vulnerable people it would certainly put a little control onto the mortality 'd rate but if the virus is keeps of creating into the population even if we will protect unsuitable in a regular community we won't be able to get rid of it so i think the ultimate solution is not really to have a temporary. control of this one is to really have a blanket approach at the country level level so that we can have full control on this infection before a therapeutic sort of action would become available ok look we leave it there we've run out of time a target to talk to there was talk to have many of her ologist at britain's lancaster university thank you. now while countries around the world to brace for a 2nd wave then of infections north korea has just marked its 1st suspected case the country's potential patients 0 was found with coded related symptoms in the border city of kosong which was locked down on friday afternoon north korea's state media claims it's
9:27 am
a defector who fled 3 years ago but illegally crossed back over the border to the north early last week if if it is confirmed it will be north korea's 1st officially knowledged infection the country has steadfastly denied having any cases before this a claim that is widely being questioned by outside experts well a norwegian filmmaker he's made 2 documentaries in north korea told me earlier that blaming the potential infection on a real defector from the south to serve a purpose for. the north korean regime. almost never entirely get in the sea on a narrative of protecting the north korean people against the whole thought. such whether or not the. house called it or not which isn't even come from the or maybe it won't be at all. it. is very convenient for the
9:28 am
north korean state to keep reading about narratives to use what i am sure will know yes speaking in terms of propaganda of every defector coming back to this arms of the party on the motherland brought on fortunately hiding the in. this by the outside the dangers of the outside world. i mean that's an opportunity they would be silly not to use from a purely. practical point of view it also makes total sense for the north korean state to be about you could tell annoyed about that because they certainly wouldn't have the health care systems in the way of a document found on the. top possible in the afternoon here in moscow that's how the news is looking so far today we'll have more news and about how often asked dully.
9:29 am
so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy. let it be an arms race is very dramatic developments only slowly and going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time to sit down and talk. dark industry comes to life in los angeles every night. dozens of women sells their bodies on the street many of them under age. los angeles police reveal a taste of their daily challenge you know if you're going to exploit a child here in los angeles we're going to come as you see officers going undercover at 6 workers and customers to fight the 6 trade.
