Remember the victims of the school siege. Fifas governing body footballs governing body fifa has agreed to release a full version of a report investigating corruption. This week the reports investigator Michael Garcia resigned after saying his findings were misrepresented. Now the report is to be released, although some legally sensitive details will be withheld. The report cleared russia and qatar in their bids for the world cup. The report also criticized england and australias bidding process. Lee why has fifa agreed to publish this report . Reporter fifa were undoubtedly in a corner, but they are out of it now. They didnt have too much choice in the end but to have this full report published. But they do actually get a lot out of it. Publicity wise it looks like they are finally being transparent. But they have resisted for so long, havent they . When the fuller version is published, it might not be dramatically different from the judges summary. I think people are expecting some damming evidence in there, and i dont think it will be that at all. Michael gar see was gone from the process as well, this has actually turned out very well for fifa. The president said we have been in crisis, the crisis has stopped because we again haunit in our government. Thats interesting because michael gar garcia said all along that report wildly misrepresented his findings. Michael garcia is a lawyer. You would have to see the two versions together to see how wildly they differ. The judge has a great reputation on the ethics committee, and provided this summary. Michael garcia has been able to protect his reputation by distancing himself from fifa. He doesnt wanted to be seen as the man who cleared fifa. He couldnt even get into russia. So actually people are expecting his report to be the be all and end all, and have smoking guns, and they wont get that. This is far more about Michael Garcia protecting himself because he doesnt like the way fifa goes about its business. The fuller version is not going to pose any danger to the world cups in qatar and russia, but seth says there is a new process being drawn up for the bidding. Is that going to shut the critics up . No, because fifa will have its critics, because it has gone about so many things in such a bad way in the last few years since that bidding process took place. But there have been changing at fifa, and he has even been given credit for them. There are new people in the executive committee. They have a clean track record. A lot of the people who were seen as corrupt have managed to hang on and are still there. But there wont ever be a possess like this again with fifa with future bids. And fifa does seem to be moving into the right direction. Its just amazing how long this has been going on for. Lee thank you very much indeed for that. Lee wellings in london there. Turkish state television is reporting that an arrest warrant has been issued for a cleric. The turkish president has referred to him and his follower as traitors and terrorists in the past. He is also the spiritual leader of a hizmet movement. It runs a network in turkey and across the world. It says it promotes culture and interface dialogue. But the turkish government says it is a gang. The turkish president blames hizmet of trying to overthrow him last year. Reporter he is in self imposed exile in the u. S. , and while requesting at at the same time is requesting that arrest, they have also requested the court asked interpol to issue a red notice. This essentially asks the country where he is in the United States to consider arresting and extraditing him and back to turkey. Were are very long way from that happening. Any case would have to be proved before a u. S. Court before he could come this way anyway. But significant that really this is being seen by his supporters as the latest stage of the spectacular falling out between the two, that has erdogan taking this action. Why now . Reporter well, its exactly a year since corruption allegations surfaced. Including forcing a couple to resign. Erdogan said it was his supporters who were behind what he said were false corruption allegations. In the months since those allegations were made, thousands of Police Officers and members of the judiciary involved have been fired or reassigned, and nobody is facing any corruption charges, and this these arrests this request for an arrest warrant now is being seanezen shally as erdogan and his supporters taking revenge on gulan and his supporters. And four people have been kept in custody, one of them the head of a media organization, one of them the former head of the antiterror department and two other Police Officers also being held in custody. Bernard thank you for that. Kurdish forces in Northern Iraq have retaken fore ground from the Islamic State of iraq and the levant. This time to the west of mosul. It comes just 24 hours after that had broken the siege. At least 10,000 people from the yazidis community have taken refuge there. They have gained nearly 700 square kilometers of what was isilheld territory. Is there has been fighting between the sides north of the mountains. Kurdish forces are now said to be marching towards isils main military base in the area. Thats in the city of tellfar. Sue was in the sinjar mountains during some of that battle. She sent this update. Reporter the head of the National Security forces in Northern Iraq has announced that the peshmerga have now taken lands that was originally isil controlled. This land stretches south of the mosul dam all the way to the sinjar mountains. This land is made up of pockets of villages and towns isil has been holding. The question is where have they now gone . We know many areas are sunni, and they could just go into those areas. The question is whether there will be a backlash. When the peshmerga first took the zuma many months ago, they thought they could relax, and then suicide bombers came in, dressed up as peshmerga, and killed many of the Peshmerga Forces. The main fighting is north of the sinjar mountains. A town we passed just a week ago, which was very much held by the isil fighters, and that is really turning into what im told a very big fight. The lieutenant we have spoken to on the top of the mown says even though they have managed to push through, they are not yet in a position to be able to hold it and to let the 10,000 yazidis leave if they want to. But the battle is ongoing. Syrian opposition fighters say they have discovered bodies in a village in the northwestern countryside. The area had recently been captured by rebels, but Government Forces are fighting hard to prevent them from advancing towards damascus. The state has lost control of large areas of the country, and doesnt have the soldiers to win it back. Zana hoda reports. Reporter more often than not this is how the government fights back. It attacks rebelheld areas from the skies. It hasnt been able to win back all of the territory it lost to the opposition. It doesnt have enough soldiers for every front line. It chooses its battles and fights on one front at a time. Translator in my opinion doesnt give doesnt take any doesnt present any importance, vital importance for the syrian regime. Aleppo is important for the regime, but it has been given for two years the first priority. Now he [ inaudible ] on it . Why . He made military success on the field. Reporter over the years the state has managed to recapture and protect strategic areas to survive even though estimates say it now controls a mere 30 of syria. But the amount of territory is not as important as which territory. It is still in charge of its seat of power, and damascus is not isolated from other majorer ban centers understate authority. It is connected to the borders of lebanon and jordan. The someone tral city and the divided city of aleppo, as well as the Coastal Region in the west. It also has a presence in other contested provinces, apart from the strong hold of Islamic State of iraq and the levant, a group that now controls approximately 35 of syria. The remaining areas are under the control of other opposition groups, but a lot of it is desert and countrysides. And now rebels are at war with each other. Alnusra front, syrias alqaeda branch has just taken over government bases in the southern outskirts of idlib. Translator neither side is winning because of the presence of isil and alnusra, those groups have a different agenda from the syrian opposition. There are only lossers in this war, the people. The Southern Province is a strategic front for both sides. The army has reinforced its positions with fighters from iran and the hezbollah, to prevent a rebel advance at the doorsteps of damascus. They recently captured a town where they found many bodies of civilians who used to live there. They blame the government. This is a war that neither side is likely to win with battle lines continuing to shift. For now, however, the state has managed to hold on to territory that it needs to stay in power. Zana hoda, al jazeera, beirut. A Million People have been wounded during the war in syria, according to the world health organization. It also says over half of Public Hospitals are out of service.

In greece, a politician says he has been offered an 850,000 bribe to vote for the governments choice of president. This would help avoid a snap election. The government is calling the allegations despicable. Reporter this cd has the potential to make a general election inevitable, an election the government would be unlikely to win. Independent greeks says it has recorded secret talks in my one of its mps was offered a bribe of 850,000 in cash in return he would have to vote for the governments choice of president. Translator we recorded the meeting at the plaza hotel where the middleman spent an hour 14 minutes detailing his proposal that in return for a bribe he would vote for a president ial candidate. Reporter a second meeting was held in which the handover was arranged to take place, but on the appointed night, the middleman called to cancel the transaction. The Ruling Coalition of socialists and conservatives is trying to win over 25 Opposition Mps to elect a new president. It has so far won over just five. If the bribery allegations are substantiated they could put off any other mps the government has a chance of attracting. The party says the material was handed over to the prosecutor and Police Two Weeks ago for further investigation, but it suspected judicial authorities are trying to sweep the affair under the rug. Translator im surprised the media essentially delivered a judicial verdict and said there is no question of a bribery attempt. I do not know what information journalists are going on. Reporter the government says the entire affair is a despicable show designed to scuttle the president ial election, but independent greeks are sticking to their guns and threatening to make the recording publish.

Reporter this weeks siege has been a huge shock, but some sort of attack wasnt entirely unsuspected. The government raised theater richl alert level to high. Two weeks later they launched what they called the largest Counter Terrorism operation in history. 800 police were involved in raids. But despite the scale of those raids, only one person arrested remains in custody as a result. The man was initially charged in connection with a plot to carry out a terrorist act, and financing terrorism. On monday he appeared in a sydney court on further charges of financing terrorism. Police say they think he organized money for australians who traveled to fight with isil. But there appear to be no connections between he and the man who attacked a cafe earlier this week. He had been charged with sexual assault, he had taken to social media to express his support for the socalled Islamic State. And yet he was out on bail and somehow able to get ahold of a shotgun. The carpet of flowers where the siege took place is still growing. A candle lit vigil has been held in memory of eight children were found in a australian house. The children were found with stab wounds on friday morning. The mother of seven of the children is in hospital with nonlifethreatening injuries. The u. S.

It is said that the site of this village dates back to the days of the ottoman empire. Translator its normal for any person to hold on to their land, because its where our ancestors were born. This is our village. We are still here. And we are staying here. Reporter there is a deep distrust of the Israeli Government.

This week Michael Garcia resigned after saying his findings were misrepresented. Turkish state tv has reportrepor reported a warrant has been issued for a cleric in exile in the u. S. State of pennsylvania. Kurdish forces say they are hoping to free thousands of people from the yazidis community who have taken refuge in the sinjar mountains. Lets talk more about this. Mark, good to have you with us. So how significant are these gains by Kurdish Forces against isil . Well, i think they are significant for that part of the battlefield, but we have got to recognize, thats a minor part of the overall battlefield in both iraq and syria. Its good to see the peshmerga are gaining ground, but the iraqi Security Forces have lost ground recently in places like beiji. The Peshmerga Forces have been telling us they are running out of ammunition. Presumably isil fighters even now are regrouping to launch counterattacks. I wouldnt characterize it in that matter. The United States has announced and approved a 1. 6 billion package for arms and ammunition. At yesterdays press conference, the commander of the new combined joint task force being put in for the 40member coalition, said that they feel pretty confident that isil is on their back feet and no longer able to conduct significant offensive operations, but he also did make it very, very clear that this is a minimum of a threeyear effort. Its good to hear some optimism there. Do you think the u. S. Lead air strikes have gone well . Officials say they killed several top leaders in those strikes and that significantly affected isil as well. The attack on the leadership is helpful, but what is more important is the way the air strikes have given a lift, a bit of opt schism to the Security Forces. As a former soldier there is nothing that one feels better than seeing your own jet fighters on top of you helping you in the fight. In that has been a truly helpful process in getting the iraqi Security Forces out of this mind set of being defeated and getting them back into the offensive mode. We have been hearing some reports that u. S. Combat troops have been taking part in some operations on the ground. Have you been hearing that . We certainly have at least 350 american advisors at the base in anbar. They certainly have the right to selfdefense. I would suspect that if there were some military operations attacking that base, that for force protection measures, they may have responded. That has yet to be determined and yet to be clarified. But i think its very important that we recognize that the increase in the number of american troops, the closer they get in this advice anded a cyst mission, we have to be candid, there will be american casual casualties. And its important for all of the Coalition Nations to still themselves for that day when they start taking casualties in this operation. Thank you very much for your analysis. The apparently kidnap of more than 100 people in nigeria is a reminder of the danger faced by the people in the northeast. Boko haram is suspected of abducting thousands of people this year alone. In april they kidnapped more than 200 schoolgirls from a rural town. The incident brought global attention to boko harams violent uprising. Months later they reportedly abducted dozens of boys and men in a village. As many as 97 people were unaccounted for. And now more than 170 people were abducted from a village, and over 30 people were killed. We are joined by an independent researcher on war and conflict study, and is live for us from birmingham in the u. K. Hundreds and hundreds of people abducted by boko haram. What is the strategy here . Why are they doing this . Reporter the first thing we need to understand about boko haram is that their psychology tells them to kidnap because they need to swell their forces, they need foot soldiers. So they kidnap young men to join their forces. The second reason is their need women to work as sex slaves or domestic slaves. These are the basic reasons why they kidnap. And the third reason is they do it because they need money for ransom, a lot of time they have kidnapped people and often when they kidnap these people we dont hear when they get ransom, but they need the ransom to sustain the insurgency. So they are kidnapping women as sex and domestic slaves, and men to swell their ranks. Does that mean there are not voluntary people who join boko haram . There are a lot of people that have the philosophy, the id idolgy, and are ready to fight with them to the death. But they need that number to go up. And they have lost a lot of people in battles, in bombings, and they have to keep the insurgency going. We have had a number of women coming [ inaudible ] and thats why you see [ inaudible ] or sometimes fighten them into [ inaudible ] to being suicide bombers. And they have volunteers to keep that insurgency going, they need people coming into the insurgency. Why hasnt nigeria been able to defeat them. They dont seem to be diminishing these attacks and abductions. No, it is not a number of times analysts like myself have argued that the first problem we have there is with the government not being really [ inaudible ] insurgency. Election is coming up in february 2015, the government is more interested in campaigning for elections and pretending as if nothing is happening. And the military are so demotivated that they are not willing to fight. Insurgents have come in to attackvillages, and they have tried to call military, but often they dont come. And there is a problem with weapons, because they dont have the weapons to withstand the fire power of boko haram. Is that also why the government has been unable to track down any of the victims of abduction, because they have been saying for weeks and weeks they are close to finding the schoolgirls, but nothing ever seems to happen. Is that just a lie . Well, the government needs to keep telling the world and nigerians that they are doing something about this. They wont just say were not doing anything about it. But they have not done anything serious to get these people back. Some time ago they said they were declaring war on boko haram, and nothing has happened since then. When asked, they say if we go there, because this is where the insuragainst [ inaudible ] we would have to kill all of the women. So negotiations have not been working. Good to speak with you. Thank you very much indeed for that. Now u. S. President barack obama has signed a bill to impose more sanctions on russia over the crisis in Eastern Ukraine after big falls in the value of the ruble additional economic sanctions would put president putin under more pressure. But ukraine isnt the only place where russia is accused of interfering. Transnistria is just across the border. Since 1992 they have depended on Russian Military and financial assistance.

Translator people have been left without work or earnings to support their families with. Reporter these land owners want to sue the federation. And they have grounds for optimism.

In this remote district, these people of tibet tan ancestry say that marrying brothers is the only way to ensure that they have enough food. The produce from the land here is never enough. Thats why brothers have to live together. If each one had to manage their own, it would never be enough. Sometimes even living together like this, there is not enough food. Reporter with all of the brothers married to the same woman, their land remains intact, and families can continue on as farmers and traitors. Translator times have changed. Sometimes even my husbands talk about getting married again. They are still young. I tell them no. Reporter an increasing number of Younger Generation of tibet ans get educated and not only do they want polyandry, but many dont come back here. This woman and her younger husband have a large farm to manage. The older husband and her four children are all in kathmandu.

Hello again, welcome back. Pa nang in northern malaysia is renown for its street food. But in a years time only malaysians will be allowed to cook in local stores, foreigners are being banned. Reporter food, its something of an obsession among malaysians. Its quite common to hear people ask one another, have you eaten, instead of how are you . And among many, there is a general agreement that street food in the Northern State is the best. This boy started out as an apprentice to his father when he was only a teen. To this day he uses the same family recipe that has been handed down for generations. And he has trained his son to cook exactly the same thing. It has been described as one of the food capitals of the world, and people here take their food seriously. So seriously that the State Government wants to ban foreigners from cooking local fair. The chief minister says its to preserve the authenticity to the food. If you just employ a worker who just has a routine job, i think you are losing the very sense the the magic that makes pee nang food so incredible. As to what exactly that magic is, one food writer offers her opinion. It is so closely related to the strong sense of identity that the people here have. A lot of passion and love goes into the creation of all of the dishes. Reporter but the food Ambassador Says the ban is short sided. We should train them properly, so that they in the future will go everywhere around the world and spread malaysian cuisi cuisine. Reporter but the State Government is adamant. Believing it will preserve the food. Makes me feel quite hungry. Here is sport now. As you have been hearing earlier fifa will publish what they are calling appropriate details of the Michael Garcias ethics report. It investigated the conduct of the organization during the bidding process for the 2018 and 2022 world cups. Previously footballs governing body said a summary would be enough. But garcia resigned this week, saying he lost confidence in his bosses. The president said the report will be released but some names of Confidential Sources will be withheld. Lets talk to sports journalist james pierce. James what will the full pup indication of this report mean . Well, thats the big question. Fifa says it wont be published until the investigations are completed into five people who are under investigation. There is no time scale given, but the key thing is its not going to be published any time soon. Tim does this decision make fifa look better or worse . I dont think its possible to make fifa look any worse at the moment. These have been some pretty bad years for fifa, so this is a positive step, but there are big question marks against it. One we dont know when it will be released, but also large chunks are likely to be redacted, hidden away. We dont know when or how much will be published either. The president has said that the 2018, and the 2022 world cups are safe and they are still on the calendar. So have russia and qatar do they need to be worried . I dont think russia needs to be worried at all. Simply for timing reasons because its three and a half years away. By the time this report is published i think it will be realistic to say that anybody could step in and take over for the russian world cup. Perhaps a bit more concern over qatar, but fifa has been resolute in saying the Qatar World Cup will take place. After this recent publication of the report of garcia and his resignation, what do people make of fifa right now . Fifa has had such appalling publicity around the world. They brought on many of their problems themselves because theying havent been transparent or seen to be doing what many supporters around the world would like them to do. People want the world cup given to the best country in a transparent process. From now on, they will make sure the process is very, very different. And that fans around the world can be confident its a fair process. James pierce thank you very much for that. Italy and liverpool striker bar telly has been given a onematch ban by the english fa.
