Assembly, which should mean a captive audience, but who is listening the rules are not the same for every country. The top story on this newshour thousands of protesters rally in sudan to voice anger at the rising cost of fuel and other commodities. Human Rights Groups say 50 have been killed in recent days. Harriet martin has the story. This is the reaction of Sudan Security forces against some of the people protesting here on friday. Gunfire is heard as demonstrators run for safety. It is a city 140km southeast of the capital. In carr toum demonstrators called for the downfall of the government. This protester explains how they ran from bullets. It was not a case of authorities trying to disperse peaceful protests, but trying to injure and kill protesters. They shot into the side street, ammunition. The protest began monday, after the Government Cut fuel subsidies. The price of petrol and cooking gas doubled. Sudan lost 70 of petrol revenue when it gained independence. Crude oil is the main source of income. The government says cutting fuel subsidies is a way of saving moneys, maintaining that protesters has a right to voice anger, but will not stand for violencism. We are expecting the administration this is usual, it happens in every country that has reforms. This happens. We said that. Its not administration, its exactly some sort of riot, some sort of attacking of people, burning shops and stealing and taking action. Hundreds of people have been arrested mostly on charges of vandalism. The rallies are the biggest against the government of omar balashir since june. Property has been destroyed, and many have been killed. How many is disputed. The government acknowledged the deaths of 33 protesters. Human Rights Groups say at least 50 have been killed and accused the government of using excessive force. Medical sources reveal the actual number of People Killed is higher. That was harriets report from khartoum and joins me live. Hundreds arrested. Many have been killed. There has been considerable tension in kharthoum. I wonder if therell be more protests today. Its a strange city to be in. Lots of things that are not normal over the last few days appeared to go back to normal. More people were on the streets, cars on the streets, buses running. There were no longer long queues at petrol stations. There was panic that the petrol stations were being burned and displays diminished. There was more demonstrations. An estimated 3,000 people turned up to the furniture of a pharmacist killed yesterday in the protest. Very much its a med pattern here, but protesters continuing today. I wonder if the protests are changing shapes. Correct me, but initially they were about fuel subsidies, rising costs of commodities, especially food, because of the lifting of the fuel subsidies, but have the demonstrations changed, the focus and target changed . Yes, i think over the last 24 hours what we have very much seen is a total focus now on bringing down this government. Theres much more targeted messages coming out of the demonstrations and protesters. We saw the head of the parties talking about the need for a Transitional Government and constitution. There has been a shift in the last few days away from the issue of the fuel subsidies being lifted which was, indeed, the trigger at the beginning of the week for the demonstrations. During the demonstrations, if they were to continue in the light of the fact that the government is using live ammunitions which could either take the people and protesters off the street or provoke further trouble. Well, just judging today from the number of people that attended the funeral of this young pharmacist, it certainly seems that theres a large number of people who have not been put off. Of course, these deaths are incredibly shocking. Its the first time in the history of regime, which has been in power for 24 years, that the number of people have been killed in street demonstrations, so that is a disincentive for people in khartoum and elsewhere in sudan. Thank you, harriet martin. Coming back to europe. Supporters of greeces far right golden dawn are protesting in athens. They are angry at the arrest of several mps and senior members of the party, including the leader, charged with forming a criminal organization. Authorities began an investigation after a member murdered an antifascist rapper. Before the killing golden dawn was popular, entering parliament for the first time in 2012, and won 21 seats by capitalising on the financial crisis and rising crime rates. Golden dawn won 18 out of 300 seats in last years elections. The country is suffering high unemployment, a rate of 27 . Opponents described antiimmigration policies as neonazis and says golden dawn islinged to 150 racial attacks. Lets go to John Psaropoulos for the latest developments in athens. Its strange that mps can be arrested. What happened to parliamentary privilege, john . There is parliamentary immunity, but it can be lifted by a vote of the body poll tick. It has been lifted and there has been precedence. There has been cases where mps asked for immunity, asylum, so charges could be cleared and rumours against them. In this case therell be no hindrance to the police and the prosecutorial authorities to proceed with the charges because of the seriousness of them. They are criminal charges, and we dont yet know the full charge sheet. We know only that the main charge concerns participation in a criminal organization. The fact that the police force used its counterterrorism unit to investigate and prosecute the cases shows the seriousness with which the police are dealing with them. At the same time we dont yet know the full constitutional, if you will, implications of mps arrested while they are in office. From what we have heard from the constitutional lawyers in greece, their political status is not affected until they are convicted. At that point they have to step down as mps and byelections have to be held. Political implications of this trial or several that may follow may overtake events. Some people are talking about a general election being necessary to clear the air. I dont know how many seats they won in 2012 one party says 18, another says 21. If they had won anywhere between 18 and 21 seats in parliament, there must be a Broad Spectrum of support for the party. They hold 18 seats at the moment. Five mps are in the hands of police, and one more is being sought after. The attitude of the party, i think, is basically to pollittisise the issue, and this is the statement made by one of the mps presenting himself outside Police Headquarters. He said that the rotten political establishment has taken out a contract against a legitimate Political Party and we are witnessing the execution of that contract. He says its proven by the arrest of the general secretary while all the other party lead erts circulate free leaders, circulate freely. Responsibility lies with the rotten establishment. He said golden dawn is here, it is not in prison, its an idea. Theyll go down fighting. They are trying to make as much political capital, that they are being ganged up on. They are trying to say this is proof that we are a truly free political movement, not subject to the shackles of the rest of the political establishment. John psaropoulos in athens. Thank you, john. Irans president has gone home to a mixed reception after his historic phone call with the u. S. President obama. An egg was thrown at Hassan Rouhanis car as he left tehrans airport and people chanted antiamerican slogans, but others gathered to show support. Hassan rouhani and president obamas call was the First Contact between leaders of the countries in more than three decades. The iranian president arrived home from the trip to the United States to a mixed reception. At the airport schoolchildren, iranian supporters of Hassan Rouhani, his diplomatic efforts in the United States, cheering for the president as well, calling him the envoy of peace. Among that crowd of a couple of hundred witnesses say there was hardliners, members of the paramilitary who apparently hurled eggs at the president and at his car as he left the airport. They were charging death to america, and other kinds of slogans. According to the reports a member was almost run over by the president s motor cade. Investigations are underway. After that historic trip to the United States speaking at the u. N. General assembly returning home to not only wellwishers, but people with a different message for president Hassan Rouhani. Lots more to come on the newshour from doha, including some spurning for egypts commander in chief to run for president. And cooking up a fresh start. A new scheme in japan is helping convicts move on from their criminal path, out of cells into conviction. And the latest scores from White Hart Lane. The latest scores and results in sport. The United Nations has agreed on a resolution to destroy syrias chemical weapons arsenal after weeks of negotiations. The 15member Security Council voted unanimously in support of a deal put forward by the u. S. And russia. James bays has had report from the u. N. Haurs in new york. Three weeks ago military action in syria seemed close. Ill put the draft resolution to the vote. For now a different outcome. A unanimous vote by 15 Security Council members to authorise the disarmament of syrias chemical weapon arsenal. A resolution based on the deal drawn up by the u. S. And russia. Together the world with a single voice for the first time is imposing binding obligations on the assad regime, requiring it to get rid of weapons that had been used to devastating effect as tools of terror. His russian counterpart made it clear what this is not. Translation resolution does not fall under chapter vii of the u. N. Charter, and does not allow for use of coercive use of measures of enforcement. There was plenty of talk about what happened after the meeting, talk of trying to stop the war, and a new date for the much delayed geneva peace conference. We have agreed, it has been expressed by the secretarygeneral that the aid i dont remember the wording was mid november. The problem with that is that the sirrian opposition never said theyll attend the gepp geneva conference, and the Syrian Regime demands that Bashar Alassad be president no matter what happiness. The original conference was set for june, during the delay thousands more syrians have died. Another earthquake hit southwest pakistan. Its the second in a week. This one was 7. 2 magnitude and was centered in the balochistan region. They are dealing with the aftereffect of tuesdays earthquake, killing 500. Kamal hyder reports from where that quake first hit. Even though the district of awaran and the adjoining areas saw 16 aftershocks after the deadly earthquake on tuesday, the government is now reporting that this particular earthquake was a new one. The epicentre this time, southeast of iran, and we are told that it was at a depth of about 14km, which would make is a considerably strong earthquake. We are getting preliminary reports that there may have been damages to villages in the adjoining districts as well. We are trying to assess the situation to see whether there are reports of casualties. So far we have been receiving reports of damage, but there is still no official confirmation. The earthquake was, indeed, felt in the city of karachi, where people were forced to come out of highrise buildings, and the assembly of balochistan was meeting and had to be evacuated. Indeed yet another powerful earthquake. It happened in less than a week from that earthquake in iran. Voting has started in givenee in the first democratic guinea in the first democratic election since 1958. The lead up to the poll has been marred by violence. 50 people have been estimated to have died. The election has been a long time coming. In 2010 there were violence when they were supposed to have been held. Theyve been cancelled five times. The opposition accused the Electoral Commission to have an advantage. Lists of voters and polling station have been manipulated. The African Union has been monitoring the elections and says most problems have been resolved. We have more from givenees capital. Thousands of guineans showed up to cast their ballots in the historic election. Theres a first democratic parliamentary election to take place since the countrys independence from france in 1958. At these polling stations there has been technical hitches. Initially the polling station opened slightly late. There was an issue with ballot papers. Some electoral officials complained of there being not enough ink. It seems things are a little more organised and people are getting the chance to vote. Everyone taking part in the election has to present a voters id card for verification once in the booth. After doing that they go to this gentleman who has the ballot papers. There are 22 candidates running to be mp for this area. After they pick up a ballot paper, they take it over to the booth where they privately choose the candidate that theyll vote for. Its a little bit of a challenge because literacy rates in this country are low. 72 of people are illiterate. After picking up the ballot paper, chosen a candidate, they come to the ballot box and cast a vote. The head of egypts military is a focus of a number of grassroots campaigns who wanted to run for presidency. The general oversaw the crack down on the muslim brotherhood, leading to more than 1,000 being killed. Our correspondent who wont be named for security reasons. You can sake general Abdulfattah Elsisi in milk, plain or crunchy. Some want him to be the next president. The head of the armed forces is attracting a cult following. So many are happy to serve a strong man. We have that culture, if general Abdulfattah Elsisi comes to power, without the political training, i am worried hell fall into that trap. There are at least five separate campaigns calling for general Abdulfattah Elsisi to run for president. This is a country that has been controlled by the military for almost 60 years. The only interruption was the yearlong presidency of the democratically elected mohamed morsi, who was deposed by the military at the beginning of july. Not Everyone Wants general Abdulfattah Elsisi to replace him. Translation who in the political arena is suitable to be president . Who can people trust to hand over the country. This is not the time to experiment with new political leaders, it will lead to the loss of our country. The growing admiration for general Abdulfattah Elsisi reminds some of almasa who ruled from 1956 to 1970. He was popular but led a government responsible for widespread human rights abuses. General Abdulfattah Elsisi is willing to accept his crack down on the muslim brotherhood, in which at least 1,000 people have been killed. Its the fear of the future, fear of the change, fear of the instability that the country has seen, a lack of security. They believe, because they have been kept in the dark for so long, so they believe the exceptional measures that have been taken by the military are the solution for the problems they are facing at the moment. General Abdulfattah Elsisi said he will not run for president , but his supporters think he can be persuaded. For them a change of heart would be, well the icing on the cake. Tunisias government says it plans to resign after talks with the opposition next week. Negotiations are aimed at forming a Caretaker Administration and getting ready for elections. Supporters of all Political Parties took to the streets in recent months pressing for change. Japans reoffending rates are rising. The trend is being partly blamed on social stigma and a lack of Government Support for released prisoners. A group of men is giving former convicts a chance to change their futures. Making a new start in life is never easy. In japan starting again after serving time in prison can be difficult. Thats what this man is doing. Gaoled for theft, distanced from his family, he was offered a deal by the owner of a restaurant train training, job, support as long as he was open about his past. Translation i told my boss i was okay with it. That is because what happened is bad, having to hide it would make me suffer. My boss told me that. They know about me. I thought i could use it to put pressure on myself not to make the same mistake again. His boss is taking part in a Pilot Program where businesses recruit from prisons in an attempt to challenge a social stigma and break the cycle of offending. Its the first such scheme in japan. Translation i, myself, didnt have an academic background. I was not talented and didnt have motivation. Vi become who i am today. When i look back it was because so many supported me along the way. Japans capacity for supporting exconvicts is patchy at best. Recovery centres for drug users, the most likely to reoffend are full. While it government wants to see more offenders put on propro probags. The rate of people going back to prison since 1977 have increased. The problem, say many, is a lack of support once back in society. Translation the number of crimes have been decreasing. There are crimes that remain. When you look at it closely 60 of crimes are conducted by 30 of criminals. They are repeat offenders. This is not one of them. He has a young family to support and intends to make the most of his second chons chance. 21 Asylum Seekers died after a boat went down off the indonesian coast, headed for christmas island.
