Mahmud in her apartment in the german capital berlin the opponent of the regime in syria lives here on her own in exile isnt she this is my husband. Says 2012 hes been missing disappearing in a prison run by the syrian secret service. Just like her son my here. Theyve been mediators for the opposition and had been on their way back from outside syria when the protests against the regime in syria started. Aired. On him and i called our son my hair after they arrived at the airport in damascus he said were getting into the car now and we have syrian peace at the table. But 1st it was husband and son never got back home. The Syrian Secret Services crimes are cruel these photos from inside syrian prisons were leaked in 2013 victims of torture photographed by a military policeman who managed to get them out of the country. Today the photos are important evidence against assads torturers in europe the authorities were investigating them when they made a discovery and 2018 secret Service Members had allegedly come to europe from syria the skies this refugees one of them is this man and where are the alleged head of the department and the secret service he and another suspected secret Service Member have been on trial in germany since april was the 1st trial ever for crimes against humanity committed by members of the assad regime. From as a darwish a Syrian Opposition where the trial is a historic step towards more justice. The citys darwish was there for the start of the trial he lives in exile in europe to. Decode example. When you. Just. Went. To the. Process. For us. The 1st. Earth and you got him. You know. When the trial started syrians opposed to the regime came together outside the Court Building to the men that assert be brought to trial. Assad himself denies any responsibility or wrongdoing. But the evidence against the Syrian Regime is overwhelming. Its kept here at this secret location in western europe. William wiley used to work for the United Nations investigating human rights abuses for un courts in former yugoslavia and rwanda he heads the commission for International Justice and accountability and gathers evidence against assads regime. Basically. What you have in this room are materials generated by the Security Intelligence structures of sure the military structures of syria and the party or political structures of syria at the top level and the government level. Records and files of the Syrian Regime cleaned examined and archived especially for the investigating authorities and courts in europe. Wiley and other investigators are financially supported by european governments when the war in yugoslavia ended in the 9. The International Tribunal was missing many important files to prevent this from happening again the commission secured and smuggled over 800000 documents out of the case of the syrian civil war. While he is convinced that it will be enough to prove the syrian leaderships responsibility for human rights abuses. As this fatwa mama living in exile in berlin. And he did end up as a no no and i think that justice will take its course and she did and im happy when i see that those people who tortured the prisoners and i know what thats like ive had that experience myself so therefore id be very happy if those responsible for techno chewing men and women were punished to get past that were caught up. In my biggest dream is to see their leadership being brought to justice for. Them to pass out. Just mahmoud hopes that one day all the crimes of assads regime will come to light including her husbands and her sons fate. The main defendant anwar are has denied all charges but if he has found guilty he could face life in prison. Many of us only know the mafia from movies or from books but for some italians this notorious group of criminals is a real threat they have to live with they by day the mafia is now exploiting peoples plight during the corona crisis by luring them with much needed assistance like money but this kind of help comes at a high price a local initiative in naples is now trying to convince italians to seek aid elsewhere.

They offer hope to Businesses Stores and restaurants sort of run out of money after months of lock down and need fresh capital even i dont like exorbitant prices. The procedure is simple representatives turn up at businesses with a boost that erlang an envelope full of cash and an author of fast help it may be tempting but to accept means getting involved with the mafia they have already been arrests in palermo on the island of sicily all over italy organized crime groups have been exploiting the downturn in the economy to invest money and from selling drugs and extortion in legitimate businesses. You know. The mafia is not bureaucratic you may see the state needs months to make good on its promises of help organized crime groups have the advantage of liquid assets and can step into the vacuum fishing with the warble the bread that an affair rather has been giving out to people today comes from a pizzeria that was the target of the commodity just over a year ago. Some armed members of a commodity clan fired through the store shutters 9 times nobody was hurt they were warning shots. Before they had come to us every month sometimes every week to ask for pain meds. Telling us to pay so we wouldnt have any problems as an insurance in the end the klan members were arrested and Salvatore Demetrio has not had any problem since but hes aware of the risks that the camara poses at the moment. Getting in through 4 years and for law who have been waiting for their wages since march. For camorra tell the employees that theyve got money for the boss and all they have to do is convince them to take it and everyone will be happy.

The corona crisis has crippled the many businesses across europe but there are also some industries that are thriving under the outbreak for example anything that has to do with funerals well take you to the spanish town of the about that the n. In the northwestern part of the country it used to be the spanish cough in the capital until the cheap imports made business tough for local manufacturers but now casket makers like horse said how monday i needed like never before. To stay behind one days business. Hes a coffee maker. In the northwest of spain. With the Family Company which was set up in the 1950 s. I was born into this micro for the run the company 1st know why what. Business has never been said the cove it 19 pandemic has caused many more deaths than usual food of a sudden there was a huge demand and they could barely keep up. To give. If course we work more much more when the conditions were worse. Went to work really fast to make the conference they werent as perfect as they would have been in normal circumstances without them normally. And its not that they didnt have experience with plenty of forest and therefore would this area once supplied coffins to the whole country and in quite a reputation people our childs great grandfather was the 1st spaniard to set up an Assembly Line in a coffin factory that was 110 years ago not long before the 1st world war broke out and then the spanish flu epidemic of 1900 terrible times good for business. Many people died of the spanish flu here and all over the world in such times like now of course there was huge demand but then all of a sudden there was no more major need for coffins then so. These days the child families and asked factory is no longer in operation this is also the case for most of the other coffin businesses in. These days most coffins come from china the development of saber one day is very unhappy about. It but feel. The biggest problem is the imports and in our case is the attitude of undertakers and people generally. And everyone is looking out for their money so everyone buys cheap goods from china. If you. Have a rodriguez is also a victim of this development he took over his fathers sole male 12 years ago many of the pine wood planks made here used to go to the local coffin make has. This on the hall they look for a close used to go to conference. But no where to go turn percent. To buy the book. The coffin makers are now using other words. Where the old and the makers are also importing wood from elsewhere who say Luis Gonzalez is the president of the association of dilution coffin manufacturers and also the matter of pain your which is not far from where the davia there is still 9 coffin factories here he says that one reason why pine wood is no longer in demand is because the fashion has changed coffins used to be rectangular but now rounded ones the more in demand he would have. To bolivia will be if we were to produce for a tangle or coffins again we could use wood from the region i would be in favor this would not only help was but also the sawmills you know the miracles of the mother of the mother. He also thinks that the covert 19 crisis has shown how important it is to be less dependent on imports from abroad this is not only true for masks in ventilators but also coffins be sure that customers are going to start thinking differently lord who not only are fearful of the undertakers will understand that its better to buy or spanish coffins that there was a gift by the british the moment the one of the only federal of the borders closed and there were fewer coffins coming from abroad were the ones who work day and night to meet the high demand. And theres really among the. Most a bomb on there is not so certain hes also an undertaker not only a coffin maker and he says that his customers 1st priority is the price. He doesnt think that the Current Crisis will have a long lasting impact. Will see how long this all. At the moment or a very sensitive and aware. It was still think this win 6 months that would be good the video here.
