videos purportedly showing min chasing down foreigners in broad daylight now there are reports that mawson met with a member of the far right party and shared confidential information why would the head of intelligence share anything with a party that just two weeks ago openly demonstrated with neo nazis or the answers could be politically explosive we have this report could the president of germany's domestic secret service bring down the government that's what the papers are asking social democrats a conservative one scaled mohsen must go if not they could quit on a limb ackles governing coalition and those bits of that anyone at the head of a security institution of our country has to be absolutely trustworthy and it's obvious that this trust no longer exists so there must be consequences for now conservatives are backing mausam he's accused of improperly passing on sensitive information to germany's far right populist party the f.t. and f.t. member told germany the data was contained in an unreleased government report. the i meet them us and when we spoke with mr marson about the repor

today that the conservative leaders angela merkel and hall say who are for who coincidentally is mawson's boss presented to the social democrats leader and they analysis is of course are quite curious turn of events he mohsen has been fired but he has now effectively been promoted and he will still work and interior minister a host they will for and will effectively now be one of his under-secretaries one of his many deputies in fact so this is still a curious case of events and it will be interesting in the coming hours in the next couple of days to see exactly how this compromise was reached particularly with regards to the stans of the social democrats. coalition partners in this grand coalition government because they were very sets on mohsen being fired but now because this compromise has been made that he will now be assigned a position in the interior ministry so be interested in of course to see how this unfolds in the next couple of days so effectively i mean we're reporting that he's been fired but if i understand from your reporting he's just been moved to another position. exa

ouster now the party leaders agreed on mawson's fate at a crisis meeting on tuesday but that compromise is already testing the government's unity. the decisive meeting at the chancellery was held in the late afternoon for days people could only speculate whether the head of germany's domestic intelligence agency would stay or go the coalition party leaders reached agreement within two hours must and will leave his post but he'll actually be promoted to the office of deputy minister at the interior ministry he will and more than before. junior coalition partners the social democrats who demanded martin's removal but party leaders finally agree to his job change instead the concession has appalled other party members. as i'm sure it's a slap in the face for people who take responsibility for their actions and who if they make a mistake don't get promoted or even face negative consequences i think the price is too high for the survival of the coalition. leaders of the opposition have also greeted the news with scorn. and sacrificed in their game to save the coalition. the head of germany's

calls for his dismissal grew but mawson's boss germany's interior minister hosts the whole scene here on the right back tim it looked as though another government crisis might be looming. the chancellor spokeswoman remain tight lipped about the room as. i said i won't comment on the article i think that speaks for itself. so will the chancellor sack her defiant spy chief the official decision about mawson's future this should yield to choose day. all right want to turn our attention now to southeast asia which is dealing with a deadly typhoon authorities in southern china are reporting the first deaths from typhoon man cut after sweeping through hong kong on sunday the storm has lashed china's southern coast with heavy downpours and powerful winds and it's now moving inland four people are reported dead in china so far at least a sixty five have died over the weekend when this storm swept through the northern philippines rescuers there are still struggling to find survivors and many of those feared dead are from a gold mining town in the north of the country they take shelter in a bun

how serious is this latest allegation against mawson well obviously the interior domestic spy agency is dismissing these allegations saying that the contacts with politicians are at the explicit request of the interior ministry and that the figures discussed. discussing these figures does not contravene any laws on the other hand a representative of the green party has said there were there will also reports that details of the budget of the spy service had been discussed in these these to these talks and if that is the case that would certainly contravenes laws because these details are only available to a very select secret group of parliamentarians there's a very protected data so it's not quite clear at the moment certainly the social democrats feel that all of this is enough evidence to show that the head of the intelligence service has gotten involved in a political dispute where he has should play no role and have called for his dismissal we'll have to wait and see how the next few hours develop all right our political correspondent hans front with the very latest developments

interior minister from the very so the silence on the sides of both the interior ministry and of mawson himself seems at them completely immovable there doesn't seem to be any chance that they're going to change their stance at the moment so given that he wasn't are willing to change his stance is he likely to step down briefly if you can well at the moment that's the kind of solution that everybody is hoping for that mohsen will for some reason be pressured into resigning on his own that would save face on all sides neither america would have to enforce a resignation or a firing all the social democrats would have to leave the coalition but the whole thing has been postponed to next tuesday there will be a whole weekend coming up and presumably during this weekend a socialist solution will be looked for already w.'s political correspondent hans but and many thanks indeed you're watching d.w. news still to come he says he was helping his family flee the war in syria then how did this man end up in hungary in prison we'll have the story coming up later in the program. now three years ago
