Im burnt coffee is good to have you with us a turkish philanthropist an activist who earlier on tuesday was acquitted of trying to overthrow the turkish government now faces a new detention order the philanthropist an activist always men kovalchuk had been one of a number of people accused of organizing protests back in 2013 against plans to redevelop an area in central is stamboul now that would have destroyed one of the citys last green spaces at gezi park where the new detention order. That were hearing about tonight it is in connection with kovalchuk alleged role in a coup attempt in turkey 3 years ago later in the summer of 2016 or so weve got a new twist in the story tonight for the latest lets go now to our correspondent green zones hes on the phone in istanbul good evening to you dorian so. Talk about what weve just heard is stable prosecutors have issued a new detention order for whats going on there. Or we understand in the stumble prosecutors how these shooters attentional in relation to a separate case and that is in connection with the 2016 failed coup in july no further details on why the prosecutors want to thank god now in connection with i k 40 certainly and that will now be interrogated we understand that that arrest and detention order was released before he was even released from the prism that he is currently in also the unconfirmed reports that the prosecutors in the case that a couple of was acquitted in taking steps which appear that they are going to challenge and trying to kill the ok so were looking at here then with this with kovalchuk is a case of him being acquitted of charges that we can now add to to the gives you park protests and at the same time hes facing possibly new charges connected with that attempted coup several years ago in turkey is that right thats correct they dont you know thats a separate case and detention old is not an issue by judges issue by prosecuting him it will be in relation they will want to encourage him in relation to that case whether he will be charged and when they should that case. And do we know is there a political angle to this story the government of president air to one do you think that government or ever one baby putting his thumb on the scales of justice in any way here with cobol. Well president goes on always insisted the judiciary is totally independent and outside of any political influence or control has to be said international monitors and human Rights Groups hockley dispute that they say this is the judiciary they have a since since the specially the failed coup id seen it was written from i think the dries they should and can because it will control over the the judiciary and in fact the case against couple was widely seen as a trumpet case in fact the European Court of human rights in december decisively ruled against the case calling for cover to be released from calling the case of politically motivated based on the legitimacy evidence there is a lot of concern over the independence of the just jury and what has happened today will only on the mind and confirm the faith of many the 63 is under the control of our own crown studies and will be hotly disputed but the events will cause a great deal of concern not only in turkey but also internationally because the European Union in particular was clearly very carefully monitoring this case with a group that it is the Pivotal Moment for turkish democracy thats right the question of impartial justice in turkey the latest progress on dorian jones in istanbul dorian thank you. Well one of the Biggest Challenges facing europe is how to manage the flow of migrants many of them undertaking perilous journeys from Subsaharan Africa to libya and then across the mediterranean rescue ships operated by charities and other nongovernmental organizations patrol the coast off libya but still many mile wide grids are drowning the drugstores joins one of those rescue ships he sends us this exclusive report from onboard that ship. From the deck of the rescue ship ocean viking nicholas romani scanning the sea for a boat with migrants on board. The ocean viking is about 130 kilometers off of the being coast that means its in International Waters. We have a list for a what a boat with sides there are lots of water already if you have a visual Border Control pilots are in radio contact. Said i will. The Border Patrol is searching the area with small aircraft they say they think theyve spotted a migrant boat with up to 90 people on board the free market or the. Iraqi. War or. The migrant boat is now clearly visible. For the. Rescue dinghies are ready to be deployed. Throughout the county as one of the most experienced staff when it comes to rescues at sea world it. Informs his colleagues what he knows about the migrants so far. And the mission begins. Again but the electic that means that we can afford. To to rescue dinghies set off an approach the michael. Along with the ship. Assessing the situation is slow going. The wooden migrant boat is overloaded with 84 passengers all young men. The danger that they might stand up and become agitated in tip over the boat is a big concern but its not going to go. But thats why the 1st thing theyre getting is life fest for you. The way. It will take 3 trips back and forth to get all the migrants on board the ocean viking. Most of them are from bangladesh morocco and somalia with a few from algeria and the gandhi a 21. 00 of them are under 18 years of age they came alone without parents or relatives. But i know that the migrants are also informed in arabic and other languages everyone will be examined by the doctors onboard. It with a dangerously ive brought it up with the lucky that where there is no common what was left of the lets look at the why did business of incredible risk youre not really happy about that but they thought my exhausted some of them found that quite difficult to find once about its problems are symbolic and i live my life in but the arguments and thats. The migrants are weak but safe theyre happy to be alive. And im 8. Years on board the ocean viking which is off the libyan coast good evening to you what condition or the people who were rescued can you tell us. Well ive spoke to one of the medics from dr without borders they provided medical and still up providing care for the rescued people. Whether they healthy although it seems that some of these people have been at sea for many hours if not days the medical team support reported that they are largely in a stable situation right now so however some of the some survivors was suffering from fuel intoxication and the m. S. F. Medical team amani talking to people for fuel burns which usually take. A little while to develop that exposed otherwise the nation is always the concern when people have been at sea for extended periods of time. With many complaining with 8 kids send and body paint and mirror youve been talking to these migrants what stories have they been able to tell you and had they been able to share with you how they ended up on a rescue boat or on a boat in the mediterranean. Well weve just arrived just now or 2 ago from from the last rescue operation so i had the chance to talk one or 2 of them but at the 1st mention that we had to rescue operations today one in their Early Morning local time just after sunrise and the 2nd operation in the Late Afternoon local time so to record a rescue operation that was totally different in the morning we had an oily sea as they say here on the ocean by that means no waste almost no wind 84 people on a wooden boat were rescued 40 percent of them came from bangladesh from morocco from gambia and algeria the 2nd operation was completely different the weather changed during the day with strong wind waves approximately 898 survivors from Subsaharan Africa and most of them off from nigeria gano senegal i just booked into a 24 year old man from morocco and you know how he ended up on the boat and he said you know he would like to work in germany as a baker has some friends and he has some friends some braman and do we know what will happen. Its. Well this is really a great question ive spoken to nicholas. From assessment on the who is in charge of the rescue search and rescue operation here on board and he told me that the ocean biking will probably continue to petrol course in International Waters off the coast of libya i think we have to be ready to see more rescue operations in the hours maybe days to come and right now no one really knows how long the rescue operation is going to last.

News live from berlin coming up next he killed thousands and he caused untold misery yet the colombian drug lord Pablo Escobar is still treated as a hero by many. The families of his victims they have found an unusual way to fight back for coming up. For german bureaucracy is legendary for being thorough and pretty slow now environmental activists they have thrown something of a Monkey Wrench into teslas plans to set up its 1st european factory right here near berlin a state court will decide whether clear cutting cutting down the trees there can continue. The german press has started calling it the tesla forest and the machines felling trees here have stopped a court order has brought them grinding to a halt the environmental organization. Says the company shouldnt be allowed to continue clear cutting before it has all the appropriate permits to jesus detaches starting activities right now sets a precedent these are things that cannot be reversed after all you cant just put the trees back in the grass. And after you cut them down because of the. Cutting has to be suspended during the bird nesting season which begins in march if tesla hasnt cleared the site by then it could delay the opening of the factory slated for next year. If it doesnt work out with tesla and i hope it does it will send a fatal signal to German Companies but also to International Investors it say that when it comes to global competition germany has grown unable to assert itself as the right place to do business but on social media users in other parts of the world are scratching their heads at the german delay to a major investment that would bring 3000. 00 jobs tesla has already cleared 60 of the 90 had tears planned for this site the carmaker has promised to replant 3 times as many trees nearby the dispute has some people worried that tesla could withdraw from the deal the matter is being taken up by a state Administrative Court itll decide on wednesday where the cutting can continue. Robots is here now from our business so lets see if we can find out if. The trees despite the forest if you will whats been the reaction to the delay here in germany well theres a great deal of excitement when it was announced the test was going to build this gigafactory. Thousands of jobs and its going to hopefully kick start germanys sector which has been a little bit slower to get so its all surprising of the concern has gone right to the very top of the German Government and weve heard from the economy minister. Saying that i must be no delays to this project he says its going to be good for Environmental Protection the concern also goes beyond this project alone with heard from the p. D. I. Which is the chairman business lobby that said we cant have points of this famous german bureaucracy like this continuing to come up its off putting to. Foreign investors i mean these environmental was are they right to be worried about me the clearing of these forests well ill let you decide so what that objecting to is the feeling of 90 has all of what is essentially pine plantation its not wild forest is not natural to begin with and these trees have been planted with the express purpose of being eventually cut down for one reason or another about that in mind also bear in mind the fact that tesla has said its going to as promised at least its going to plant 3 times as many trees to replace the ones that they are cutting down and they said that the trees that theyre going to plant again to be more diverse theyre going to be better for the environment they going to be better for animals thats one way in which the green league seems to be slightly soft ground with this theres also just the initial irony that comes with the fact that this project to create a plant thats going to put out hundreds of thousands of electric cars each year good for the environment is being held up by environmental campaigners yeah i mean its almost like a kafka novel if you will what about mr social himself you almost if we heard any the we havent actually heard from tester on this i would be surprised if theres a bit of soul searching going on tests h. Q. This isnt the 1st problem that theyve had that theyve failed to foresee theyve had to move communities of animals for example and im not quite sure how you move a Community Event but theyve had to bats. Theres also been the problem of unexploded 2nd world war bombs you have had to do you know its so theyve someone hasnt done this summer when it comes to this test and now if they cant solve this before march when the nesting season rolls in the real risk of not meeting that july 2021 that i know its right when the birds start chirping no one will be working what stops us exactly right all right rob thank you very much. Our colombian drug lord he was once one of the worlds most dangerous criminals yet nearly 30 years after his death people continue to his lifestyle of making money out of his brutal legacy now there are. Reports the families of many victims they have decided to take some action. Pablo escobar is everywhere in the streets and shops he grins at passers by from t. Shirts key chains and even Oil Paintings pop culture has turned the founder of the many young drug cartel into an icon an icon who was responsible for the deaths of thousands of people to consult this trend is horribly painful he tells me that 30 years ago his father died in a terror attack orchestrated by the notorious drug lord. And i think nowadays the people who sell these types of products are soley motivated by the desire to make money in order to sell the hype around this figure of a crime boss who inflicted a lot of pain on this country. As a place 49762993 escobar ruled over a kingdom of horror fueled by assassinations kidnappings and terror attacks still some of the very colombians who once lived in fear of him now seek to profit from his legacy some people come in and get mad they tell me this is blasphemy and ask me why on earth are you selling this but people ask for it this is after all my livelihood if i get a request i get it painted because i run a business this is. Gonzalez and. Colombia remembers is trying to show the grim reality behind the idolization with its latest project oddly enough its an online store selling narco merchandise or at least thats what it looks like at 1st glance. The way it works is that if you try to buy one of the products offered on the website youll encounter the story of a victim of narco terrorism in colombia a direct victim of public. Record. And i know only i marked elena gomez and im the wife of. Deceased and one of Pablo Escobar is a tax. He said i would like to tell my husband that the life project we created together i try to do in the name of our love. And of our life project and is through mornin and through predict the year we love you forever. Gonzalo and his cofounder davida arent alone in their fight against the trivialization of escobar is dark legacy through the narco store project they found unexpected allies with very close ties to the drug lord. I mean theres you know its down tension to prioritize the victims over the products the glorify the crimes all the story of my father those products are permanent insult to the families the murder of their money and the alliance for peace unimaginable 3 decades ago 27 years after public death colombia still hasnt been able to dismantle the powerful drug industry he built banning the products that glorify narco culture should be a far easier task.
