Nairobis morgues every day many of them young men killed by police in a culture of impunity from one officer willing to speak out. Hello im terry martin good to have you with us well have those stories and more coming up for you in just a moment but first well head over to my colleague. For more of whats happening on the markets cannot help but it is well its pretty bad at least if you invested in the last year or so because after a rally that has been going on for months and months it was a bit a day of reckoning on World Markets many already talking about the black monday a time reserved in financial circles only for the most severe of. Shocks the Dow Jones Industrial average in the u. S. Tumbled one thousand one hundred seventy five points or four point six percent to close down at twenty four thousand three hundred forty five on monday its eight percent down last week compared to last week to put this into perspective its the biggest loss for six years and it marks the largest intraday point of decline intraday point decline of all time one thousand five hundred ninety seven points the Technology Index nasdaq is also sharply down by three point seven percent so what happened a combination of factors is at play here wages in the u. S. Have risen here we have the market figures once again but wages figures in the u. S. Have risen stronger than expected which stokes fears of rising inflation that will drive Interest Rates upwards makes it more expensive for companies to borrow money and cheap money has been the fuel behind the rally of recent months also rising Interest Rates make safe assets that governments dont bones more attractive for investors so they pull out money from shares and much of the slump is also generated by computers trading orders are triggered when certain shares or other indicators fall to a preprogramed level and these selves trigger other sell orders its a domino effect and it works within seconds around the globe lets have a look at asian markets which follow wall streets lead today japans nikkei index was down almost seven point one percent during trading thats the biggest point drop since one thousand nine hundred stocks across all sectors us getting in the way of the new york crash carmakers like to go to financial stocks and Technology Companies are being hit hard all other asian markets are also taking a beating in hong kong the hunt saying index is around five percent lower right now headed toward its biggest fall since twenty fifty. So what goes up must eventually go down maybe donald trump would do well to remember that the next time he attributes stock market success to himself he could be cheered by some analysts saying that this sell off actually is healthy at this stage its better the market is letting off some steam right now instead of later when it could be much more damaging but thats chica disappear if sustained fear from investors has a Chilling Effect on investment. Good news for the economy turned out to be very bad news for stocks at the start of the trading week the latest data on u. S. Wages show average Hourly Earnings up two point nine percent year on year the highest rate of growth recorded since the middle of twenty nine thats following years of stagnation but faster wage growth means employers have to spend more to recruit the workers they want higher pay could equal less profit for shareholders and traders fear possible Interest Rate hikes. That the market is reacting not so negatively because the economy is doing poorly but quite the contrary because the economy is doing so nicely and we might see some inflation pressure meaning the Federal Reserve and other Central Banks around the globe might also become more aggressive and that certainly could become a sea change that could we do not know yet a sea change in Central Banks meaning sharply higher key lending rates and it growing understanding that loose Monetary Policy is supposed to be temporary but thats further along the road for now investors are looking more anxious to get the short term u. S. Stock futures have slid further since wall street closed theyre now down three percent. So while markets in the u. S. Were heading down with asian markets were following europe european investors are still fos the sleep and let still cross over to our financial correspondent whos standing by at the Frankfurt Stock Exchange where trading will only start in about two hours down what can we expect in european markets today. Here you can really feel the atmosphere already here at the stock market the First Investors are already showing up here and i can tell you they are prepared for a really bad scenario i had the opportunity to talk to one of them or a little bit earlier he was telling me that they are very sure that also here the market in frankfurt will go down and we have to remember here in frankfurt we were still lucky yesterday shares here were dropping by zero point seven percent of pictures and other stock markets around europe was already quite different when you look at the market for example in london zurich or paris they were down between one point three and even one point five per cent today many investors have already said in the past days that they are really expecting the market to have a sort of correction we might see shares here dropping to a level of only Twelve Thousand points. Is this Market Correction not healthy after that rally of recent months. Well many investors are actually saying that this is a healthy correction of the market because we have to remember in the last three years heres here where actually rising with a sixteen percent in the last year by ten percent many experts have said in the past that we already have seen quite an overheating here as the market and the figures are not even realistic so yes this is most likely going to be a very painful day many investors also private ones will lose money but after that trading will be more realistic again its going to will come back to you in the next hours of course when trading has started thank you very much so far. Thats all your business for the moment germanys main Political Parties closer to a Coalition Deal and areas more on that story thats right. Here in germany negotiators from the chancellor merkels conservatives and the social democrats are inching closer to a new government the chancellor merkels conservatives and social democrats were meant to strike a deal by sunday but they are still far apart on several key issues leaders on both sides are pushing hard for an agreement and an and to months of Political Uncertainty. The end of the road might just be inside the headquarters of the santa left p. D. S. Where germanys political heavyweights of toughing it out in this last phase of Coalition Talks negotiated have been fine tuning the deal day. In a German Government four months after the countrys elections. We agreed to choose day will be the decisive day were in the final round and want to finish the negotiations tuesday will be decisive on whether the negotiations will be concluded successfully or not. Up season. Health care reform is being a Sticking Point the social democrats want to end geminis to th Health Insurance system a second obstacle is fixed Term Employment contracts which the s. P. D. Wants to replace with payment positions that provide greater job security the green party now in the opposition is vehemently opposed to the Coalition Agreement as it now stands starts the mood for instead of the display of courage to address tasks of the future were seeing a grand coalition thats concerning itself with minor issues even while the really critical challenge were facing in europe arent getting the attention they deserve. Talks are set to continue one choose day even if an agreement is finally reached the social democrats rank and file still need to sign off on the deal. Or for more on the ongoing negotiations im joined here in the studio by maria turk shes a research and Teaching Fellow in Political Science at Humboldt University here in berlin good morning good morning now the s. P. D. Entered these negotiations maria very reluctantly they are terrified that this could cause them to really come apart politically how is the s. P. D. Approaching these negotiations in terms of strategy. Yes a very good question being a junior partner in America Coalition hasnt treated anyone well so far so we see why they are afraid of losing even more in the next poll. They try to do what the members if the lost them as the Congress Told them right so they try to introduce the socalled berger physician wrong and too weak to use it would be kind of a blanket urines for everything actually they have what means abolishment between the difference for differentiation between public and private Health Insurance exactly and they stepped already a little bit back from that and said now that they tried to reduce their privileges of private insurance people so that its going to be a little bit more similar here so you see some movement but they added high as well Health Care Reform a big big issue very difficult huge implications weve seen this in germany and other countries too when it comes to reforming the Health Care System very difficult the s. P. D. Is also asking the conservatives to make concessions with respect to fixed Term Employment contracts also another big topic do you think this p. D. Is in a strong bargaining position to ask for those things well good question and and i would say they have cracked some leverage because they are the only real option for majority cap government right now so they can offer to some certainty for ten extend or what they want to get however theyre not going to get everything. What about the the the social what about the chancellor merkels conservatives we know whats at stake for the s. P. D. In these talks what about the conservatives is it all sweetness and light for the c. D. U. And the berrien c. S. U. It is not a bad area have fake elections this year so the c. S. U. Has to see that they get some of their policies also in federal government for and also for america and tunnel a pony. Them starts there raising their voice so she is criticized this well its tough for both parties are you still seeing within these negotiations an internal fight in chancellor merkel c. D. U. For leadership. Well i think in not really loudly maybe on the ground theres something happening that prominence that really weighs in their voices however in public everyone is still behind her back ok german voters been waiting for months for a for a government to be formed the elections were back in september german voters losing patience now they start to do however if we compare that with without a counterweight like belgium they say its not a very long Coalition Negotiations also i mean the social democrats and the Christian Union just started to negotiate negotiate so actually the last Coalition Talks in two thousand and thirteen between the two parties half an even longer than what happened right now its maybe important to remind german voters about that last negotiations took even longer what does this Political Uncertainty that germany is experiencing right now mean for the other Political Parties that are going to be represented in the bonus talk well they kind of least are supposition work yet either because well if theres no government you cant really start to work against the government however they are in a good position right i mean criticizing something is always easier than actually doing at so they are a little bit if theyd waiting for is a real thing do you care to make any prediction on how these how these talks will end and the prospect of the s. P. D. Rank and file actually accepting any Coalition Agreement i think youll be going to have a Coalition Agreement proposal tonight probably the big question is if the members of the social democrats. Gonna actually accept that and not really any poll or anything we can predict about that so its very uncertain for everyone and that could take a little time to a couple of weeks i understand if im only a turk a research and Teaching Fellow at berlins Humboldt University thank you so much.

The Animal Rights group staged a p. R. Stunt. On tuesday to call for olympians and visitors to the winter games to stop wearing fur where. Just a white bikini and bunny ears and brandishing a sign saying champions dont wear fur female activists ashley for no braves subzero temperatures for some fifteen minutes to convey her message to reporters at this says china is the biggest producer in claims that animals are forced to live in miserable conditions before being slaughtered for their free. Well the Winter Olympics begin in south korea on friday and preparations are well underway in pyongyang chong the athletes of his village is finished and competitors are arriving with a joint korean womens hockey team and the russian contingent heading the headlines but there is one problem with the winter games by definition its extremely cold.

O. C. Big weeks on their inspection of the Olympic Village is wrapping up warm. China is in the. Province one of the coldest places in the country and its particularly cold at the moment with temperatures dropping as low as minus twenty degrees celsius not a problem for the athletes who are used to cold weather but it could prove troublesome for the spectators during the Opening Ceremony thats the time for your hands on your feet in case they get. Healthy the side that you question if you can say im going to keep you warm during that. Base blanket. Because of the one this isnt the only proof that pyongyang is ready and raring to go the Olympic Village is finished as all the highly praised venues but dont expect the atmosphere to mirror that of previous olympics as the events are spread far and wide across the region. The games and i. O. C.

I. Within the squad we have good competition for places Everyone Wants to play so im going to rotate a bit. Moving the goalposts isnt an option against. Just have to try it the hard way. So that we take a look at extrajudicial killings in the slums of nairobi stay with. His legal highlights. Shocks former teammates cole going down three points first new club dog. Show good football. Using to believe in the final. Fake hair and well start. Where i come from a lot of women. Have fake. Sometimes that hairstyle takes up to two a day. Its a lot of time that needs to be filled so people at the salon talk about whats happening in their lives. I became a journalist and historian tell and i always want to find those real authentic stories from everyday people who have something to share. With all the time i spent at the salon. When i see ads and the good stories when i hear that. My name is elizabeth and i work at. Learn german with d w. Any time any place. Whether with jo jo and her friends. I leave the stuff to. Mr spitzer sensors or join the cause of war with friends all over the world. Online and interactive. German to go. Learn german for three brits d. W. Pick up. In a single day since two thousand and eleven in japan the nikkei index was down almost seven point one percent during trading. Well turning now to kenya and allegations of a conspiracy to kill in the slums of nairobi dead bodies of young poor men are turning up on the streets almost every day suspects suspect of being criminals they are executed by the police without charges without trial t w speaks to a whistleblower who reveals an underground war on crime thats believed to have claimed more than three thousand lives last year. October two thousand and seventeen its been two days since my mom pry own lost her son brian nineteen years old executed by the police. State. For you. Brian lived in one of nairobi slum the Police Suspected him of being a thug and thieves but his mother disagrees. Before i make fun. Joyce was brians friend a neighbor here in her community in k. L. Is where he was killed along with his three friends. Had to take him to. The policeman on the one who got down. There is more evidence images of brian and his dead friends published on facebook. Troy says the police themselves post the pictures to instill fear and brand the victims as armed criminals. Killing at the city more trees for britain but it seems that the killing of brian and his friends was not an isolated incident were told that twenty to fifty corpses arrive here every day almost all killed by the police. Dr brian beach anger is an independent forensic expert he confirms that cases like brians are part of a larger pattern. Into to be to buy into and to unscrew the chest. Or. The bark. And the chest is not to do. Its job security. The police repeatedly denied g. W. S. Request for an official interview. One officer inside the system however says hes against the extrajudicial killings and wants to uncover the actions of nairobis police he agrees to talk to us anonymously as he fears for his life. So the procedure is as a cop youre given an order you dont know where the order comes from youre told hey this is whats happening. And now its time to shoot to kill and then you go you land within that process if you dont get the right guy youll end up killing the wrong guy and if you get the right guy you also kill the right guy without prosecution and nobody cares. Crime is rife the prisons are full and for many police the lives of those who live in the slums in this until now thousands of extrajudicial killings in kenya have been covered up and gone unreported. Friends family at his funeral they feel that he like so many other young men was stripped off judicial process and his human rights. And its a sad certainty that bryant wont be the last young man will fall victim to nairobis fight against crime. With me in the studio. Is melanie cora the ball who brought to that exclusive report time melanie the killing of nineteen year old brian who was portrayed in your report there that happened in october has there been any investigation now there hasnt been and brian is just one of many cases where there hasnt been and missed a case and so your question really highlights the difficulties of holding the police to account you know. If you want to go ahead and help the police to count you have to file a complaint very often with the very same police who is responsible for the mud in the first place and then this year in a legal case is highly highly costly so for families like that of bryan living in the slum its just something that they cannot afford to do and finally there are institutions in place who are supposed to look into internal problems with the police but they are incredibly slow to respond and. That hasnt been an investigation now it sounds like then if theres no investigation at these these crimes if thats what they are going to it would seem so that they are being carried out with impunity has any evidence emerged to proof that the police are actually behind these killings. Thats actually one of the problems right so we reached out to the independent Oversight Authority inside the police and we also reached out to the police and our o. B. And they repeatedly denied us any information any requests so you are facing these issues of finding evidence and thats because witnesses get to speak out because the Police Actually restricting access to the crime scene because theyre sometimes tempering with them so when it comes to the autopsies as well he would just give just you cant go in that you dont have access to the police themselves carry out those autopsies so what we had to do what i had to do is go back to what journalists have always done ask questions go around find neighbors chase down victims and corroborate independently the claims that theyre and one of the most interesting things i found that you have seen in the report is whats happening on fish media whats happening on facebook where the police themselves said to upload pictures is to brag about the executions so yeah that was one one of the things that i found that very very disturbing report the forensics expert that you spoke to in your report he said that being poor in kenya is almost a death sentence whats the link between being poor which you cant really blame yourself for and being killed by the police. When ordered to understand that connection you have to know that crime is rife in nairobi especially in the slums of nairobi some people even cold nairobi ny robbery so that is an issue and the police is supposed to tackle crime and this becomes an issue for the young men living in the slum who are wrapped up in the stereotypes of being criminals of being gang members who are often over whose voice is that over there. So they become easy targets for the police which is under pressure to to fight crime and on top of that the prisons are full its one of the easiest thing what seems to be easier for the police to get rid of someone in the slum than to arrest them so there is this culture of impunity and in this culture of impunity that the death of these young poor man somehow becomes inevitable now theres an Ongoing Court case in connection with the killings of three men back in june of two thousand and sixteen one of them is the renowned lawyer willie cmon the four Police Officers were involved implicated in this indicted even what can you tell us about this. It is a very interesting case because it what it is is one that has come into to the public eye because he was a human rights lawyer he was a famous human rights die he was killed alongside his driver and the client that he was representing and the client he was representing was building a case against police so this case shows you how difficult and dangerous it really is to go up against the police he ended up dead as one of the most famous human rights wise that we really can money was killed there were street protests the police of sense announced that theyre planning to modernize or at least the government says going to modernize the police force is there any hope of things changing for the better only if there is a political outcry and thats something that we havent seen yet apart from in this very prominent case but not in regards to the People Living in the slum the local media is too scared to really speak about this and if they do they they name hundreds of people not thousands but we have seen and now investigation and as long as this doesnt happen i dont think that the police for really the fullest to change something about their behavior and any corridor thank you so much for your report and for talking with us this morning to turkey now where hundreds of thousands of people are trying to dig their way out of professional and financial ruin after being sacked in the prose coup crackdown many judges teachers and professors accused of having ties to the coup attempt have seen their reputations destroyed and incomes disappear overnight dozens of academics who publicly criticize the government could face prison heres a look at some of those whove lost nearly everything but remain defiant. Taz been working behind the counter for only a few months last spring the Political Science lecture was fired and like so many other Civil Servants he was banned from his profession as well as forbidden to leave the country after that he had to ask himself what should i do now. We just wanted to do something here to fade then we dont leave here we will find new ways to do what we have been doing in the university and that means what they had been doing with science because it puts it in general in two thousand and sixteen by a tar signed a petition called academics for peace they criticized how the turkish government handled human rights issues in a kurdish part of the country he was fired for that and barred from Government Service by a state emergency decree will also receive another Unemployment Compensation or pension by october open the cafe together with other colleagues who were fired been in the coffee shop. Or house of culture they offer workshops and readings they want to provide a space to share knowledge where people can learn and discuss things and ask critical questions. This was his dream. Seats and greens of maybe that would be a forest maybe that will be these these these are the people immediately see a lot of messages over the internet or very soon its easy and thats you give us support and you gave us hope that former students sometimes stop by to get advice from by a doctor by chance or she works as a waitress here in the weekends tara was her professor for four years after he was fired she was so depressed that she stopped attending university for a while. Went by a lot or told her of his new venture. She wanted to be a part of it wholeheartedly. So i learned something new here every day i dont see it as work we discuss things read books Exchange Opinions about politics and other topics being harry death meanwhile the good is that. Its ok if he gets. Because the cafe and island of hope working here gives him strength and distract him from private concerns his wife works at a university in germany he hasnt seen her in eight months he is not allowed to leave the country and if she were to return to turkey she would face the same situation. Our son her emails be like and i want her when she comes back i want her to know everything we say with our. Life after her departure you saw her birds even from germany she contributes i think thats the most. Mention of all these persons in the capital ankara husband and wife jail and. Also saw their professional world collapse before their eyes they were Elementary School teachers before being fired about a year ago now they are trying to make ends meet by running a small food stand the number sixty six on the front counter this is the number of the law that was quoted as they lost their jobs theyre trying to keep a sense of humor oh. We had to sell our car to open up the shock we have two children and somehow we have to make ends meet. Today they have a visitor. You know used to teach communications hes writing a book about those who were fired and yes he too was dismissed for the same reasons. He wants to tell the stories of some of the forty thousand teachers and professors who lost their jobs. Many people who were victims of us to korea now networking we have the same worries and were beginning to feel some solidarity a kind of Resistance Movement its not just about coming to the shop to eat its more important than that its about the exchange of political and personal ideas. But kamal has almost no contact with former colleagues at the university where he taught the school was right wing conservative and he was one of the few liberal leftist teachers there now he spends his days in his home Office Working on his book he also has financial worries he has loans to repay but no no income. He gets small Monthly Payments from his labor union but its not enough to make ends meet he and his wife have begun selling homemade leather bags. Started eating soup instead of proper meals and i rarely go out so i can save money. Ive sent out a lot of job applications but no one is interested in employing someone who was let go to a government to curry of course anyone can become unemployed but for us its important to come up with a survival strategy. But its not just about survival these people want their lives back thats what most of the fire professors and journalists are demanding at this demonstration in istanbul. By hard times determined to remain positive he came all the way from this scene to be here in istanbul today. Its not easy its not easy to insist on to sometimes you need to be you you need to see that youre not the only man here youre not the on the foot of the foot of the tongue there are other movies that this is this is stupid and its so you just start to really believe in yourself and you just repeat your. Year is just days and years to go to tars going to need his strength and positivity all of the academics who signed the peace petition have been legally charged the first Court Proceedings began in december but the professor says hes not afraid after all hes an eternal optimist.

I think listening to the report that youve already had and listening to what kids are saying we have to integrate being sipho like how to manage your Online Presence for radio if we Start Talking about it hes going to or we Start Talking about it at home when kids are teenagers are older its already too late so we need to start from a really early age and make it part of the National Curriculum now a recent International Survey showed that over thirty young people have also been bullied online in a report there we heard some saying that they feel bad after being online sometimes says is online bullying more prevalent then offline bullying i think it would only get some of the risks that we see from the cyber calling and cyber and its so because of the anonymity of school it makes it easier and any time that we with any us big cases we get that feedback as well so for example today on Safer Internet day were hoping to grow the awareness of our life risk were helping to publicize the resources of lots of different n. G. O. S and also organizations that provide resources for kids around the world in different languages to help them stay alive so its. Its you know as it makes it easier for children to do what we have to make this a culture of behavior treating each other with respect the same way we treat each other and i think that i know what life and that starts and start is home at a very early age. Is there a typical profile neal of victims and bullies in this online situation. A really good question and no there isnt anybody has the risk of becoming a victim but also the risk ten show for a child or an adult also to become a belief as well and come back to looking at how do we treat each other how do we treat each other with respect were going to notice when we were at the minute with children and schools across the world under our education for Justice Initiative where were going to school and helping kids along the risky things but also helping parents and teachers as well as down with that as well because we regularly see that teacher parents dont understand the case are doing a lot and if you dont have any help hensher that its really difficult to try to manage that risk both of your kids becoming a victim but also becoming a well so its integrating this as a normal part of every day and i hate your we know we cant separate it im just making sure that we treat each other respect the whole way through now this years Safer Internet day is about showing respect for others online as you mentioned in a time of internet twitter storms and flame wars how can schools go about dealing with this and parents too you mention that education is the key how is that best implemented. Absolutely so i think we need to focus on Critical Thinking i was speaking in a school also in norway earth and trying to help kids are getting the youngest age right way through their teens twelve the standard what they see on social media or what they read my own necessarily be true just because it has already been millions of likes to reach weeks doesnt mean it is true so we have to give our kids and our parents other adults as well the ability to critically think about what theyre seeing online and judge one of these for what it is so that were not sitting there thinking because of the number of likes that many necessary to produce so we understand that we critically think our way through and make judgments and not focus our entire social and personality goals on the number of likes we can get into a better space and use the internet for what its there for for peace for helping societies to grow for prosperity and not a way of homes as well you know whether we like social media or not its become a fact of life and is a big part of our communication the ngo child that International Says today that while we should minimize the dangers in children particularly using social media most children are ok online are we a danger of exaggerating the problem. Im not sure use the word exaggerating both think we do have to look at it within the caltex that exists the likelihood of a child becoming a victim of best experiencing a good experience all im. Going to be very aware of which is why everything we have to do is allotted to growing use of social media use only devices into a lower will everyday pattern of behavior it can be something separate when we think to kids and we talk about all line off line and they dont have that distinction the way we may have so its recognising that how a child go on their device they say you dont understand why being a normal part might integrated from the start if you make decisions i dont we go from that right neil waltz there cybercrime expert with the United Nations office against drugs and crime thank you so much for talking with us on b w names like you very much.
