Tonight at Ten, a 40-year jail sentence for Radovan Karadzic, | :00:00. | :00:07. | |
The former Bosnian Serb leader was responsible for some | :00:08. | :00:13. | |
of the worst atrocities in Europe since the Second World War. | :00:14. | :00:18. | |
His war crimes included the Srebenica massacre, | :00:19. | :00:20. | |
when thousands of Muslim men and boys were marched away | :00:21. | :00:23. | |
and killed during the ethnic conflict in Bosnia. | :00:24. | :00:28. | |
Guilty of the following counts - count two, genocide... | :00:29. | :00:32. | |
He was convicted of a total of ten war crimes by | :00:33. | :00:36. | |
the International Criminal Tribunal sitting in The Hague. | :00:37. | :00:40. | |
The verdicts follow a trial that began eight years ago. | :00:41. | :00:43. | |
We'll have the latest from The Hague. | :00:44. | :00:44. | |
More formal tributes to the victims of the Brussels bombings, | :00:45. | :00:49. | |
but some parents are still waiting for information about missing | :00:50. | :00:51. | |
fact, we demand, that the government allow these families into to see if | :00:52. | :01:07. | |
our children are still alive. The former England and Sunderland | :01:08. | :01:09. | |
footballer Adam Johnson is sentenced to six years for sexual activity | :01:10. | :01:12. | |
with a teenage girl. And Johan Cruyff, one | :01:13. | :01:14. | |
of the greatest footballers of all time, has died | :01:15. | :01:16. | |
at the age of 68. And coming up in Sportsday | :01:17. | :01:20. | |
on BBC News: Wales and Northern Ireland have | :01:21. | :01:22. | |
played a friendly in Cardiff. Both sides have European glory | :01:23. | :01:24. | |
on their minds after decades away The man who presided over some | :01:25. | :01:27. | |
of the worst atrocities in Europe since the Second World War has been | :01:28. | :01:54. | |
sentenced to 40 years in prison by the International | :01:55. | :01:57. | |
Criminal Tribunal. The former Bosnian Serb leader | :01:58. | :02:00. | |
Radovan Karadzic was found guilty of genocide and crimes | :02:01. | :02:03. | |
against humanity. The judges decided that Karadzic | :02:04. | :02:07. | |
was responsible for the massacre of up to 8,000 Muslim men and boys | :02:08. | :02:11. | |
at Srebrenica in 1995. Karadzic - who's now 70 - | :02:12. | :02:15. | |
was cleared of one charge The verdicts bring to an end a trial | :02:16. | :02:18. | |
that started eight years ago. Our special correspondent, | :02:19. | :02:21. | |
Allan Little, who reported on the war, was in court | :02:22. | :02:23. | |
for the verdicts. It is the most symbolically | :02:24. | :02:27. | |
charged international war crimes verdict in Europe | :02:28. | :02:32. | |
since the Nuremberg trials Radovan Karadzic had presented | :02:33. | :02:34. | |
himself throughout his trial as a man constantly | :02:35. | :02:39. | |
striving for peace. In Sarajevo, the judge said, | :02:40. | :02:45. | |
his forces, called the SRK, deliberately sniped | :02:46. | :02:51. | |
at and bombarded civilians. They fired at children playing | :02:52. | :02:54. | |
or cycling in the street. Karadzic knew about it | :02:55. | :02:57. | |
and he bore individual criminal The chamber is | :02:58. | :03:02. | |
convinced that the SRK conducted a campaign of sniping | :03:03. | :03:07. | |
and shelling Sarajevo with the intention to, | :03:08. | :03:11. | |
among other things, terrorise the civilian population | :03:12. | :03:15. | |
living there. Elsewhere, hundreds of thousands | :03:16. | :03:20. | |
of non-Serbs were forcibly expelled from their homes | :03:21. | :03:22. | |
in a campaign to carve out Thousands of men were held | :03:23. | :03:25. | |
in camps in deplorable There were mass murders, | :03:26. | :03:30. | |
beatings, rapes. It was organised and systematic | :03:31. | :03:34. | |
extermination, a crime In July 1995, his forces murdered | :03:35. | :03:37. | |
8000 Bosnian Muslims at Srebonica. It was an attempt at ethnic | :03:38. | :03:46. | |
elimination, the judge said. Radovan Karadzic agreed | :03:47. | :03:52. | |
to the killings and, The accused shared | :03:53. | :03:54. | |
the intent that every able-bodied Muslim male | :03:55. | :03:59. | |
from Srebonica be killed, which, the chamber finds, | :04:00. | :04:03. | |
amounts to the intent to destroy the Bosnian | :04:04. | :04:07. | |
Muslims in Srebonica. Among the many victims | :04:08. | :04:14. | |
of the Srebonica killings were the father, the | :04:15. | :04:16. | |
mother and the younger He survived only because he worked | :04:17. | :04:18. | |
as a translator for Dutch He was in court today | :04:19. | :04:24. | |
to hear the verdict. The genocide ruling | :04:25. | :04:28. | |
is important for the prevention of any potential future | :04:29. | :04:31. | |
genocide in the region, It is the best way to prevent future | :04:32. | :04:34. | |
genocides, to do international justice and have these | :04:35. | :04:40. | |
kind of rulings. For the bereaved, who live | :04:41. | :04:44. | |
their lives in the shadow of the crime, Karadzic's sentence | :04:45. | :04:47. | |
did not seem commensurate There has been killing | :04:48. | :04:49. | |
and I've been left all alone The former Foreign Secretary, | :04:50. | :04:59. | |
Lord Owen, was the EU He negotiated with | :05:00. | :05:08. | |
Karadzic for years. Karadzic rejected all his efforts | :05:09. | :05:13. | |
to find a negotiated peace. Behind the veneer of | :05:14. | :05:18. | |
sophistication, there was a man that was racist and was not | :05:19. | :05:21. | |
prepared, really, to consider it possible that Muslims | :05:22. | :05:27. | |
and Orthodox Christians could work He saw this in ethnic | :05:28. | :05:33. | |
and in religious terms, 21 years after he | :05:34. | :05:41. | |
was first indicted, Radovan Karadzic finally rose | :05:42. | :05:50. | |
to face justice for what the judge Count five, murder, | :05:51. | :05:53. | |
a crime against humanity... A quarter-century ago, | :05:54. | :06:18. | |
he seemed beyond accountability, Tonight, he knows he is likely | :06:19. | :06:21. | |
to spend the rest of his Allan Little is at | :06:22. | :06:26. | |
the Hague for us now. You came face-to-face with Karadzic | :06:27. | :06:42. | |
in the early 90s. What was your sense at that time of the nature of | :06:43. | :06:49. | |
his ambition and plans? We got to know him quite well, especially in | :06:50. | :06:51. | |
the early months of the war, when we would go and see him in the mountain | :06:52. | :06:56. | |
headquarters in the hills above Sarajevo, and he would explain | :06:57. | :07:00. | |
affably, in a friendly way, why it was necessary for non-Serbs and | :07:01. | :07:07. | |
Serbs to be prosecuted. -- separated. He spoke about it as if | :07:08. | :07:11. | |
it were normal. We knew, because we were reporting it every day, that it | :07:12. | :07:16. | |
was being achieved through a state sponsored criminal enterprise | :07:17. | :07:19. | |
involving atrocities. There seemed to be no connection between the | :07:20. | :07:23. | |
reality is we were seeing and the way he characterised and described | :07:24. | :07:27. | |
the war. I went to see him about a year into the war at a time when | :07:28. | :07:32. | |
Lord Owen was trying to broker a peace settlement, and the Bosnian | :07:33. | :07:35. | |
Serbs alone were holding out against it. Every other party had signed up | :07:36. | :07:42. | |
or were about to sign up. I said to Rathfarnham -- I said to Radovan | :07:43. | :07:46. | |
Karadzic, we were in his hotel room, I said, you might one day look back | :07:47. | :07:52. | |
on this moment is the moment you might have chosen peace and instead | :07:53. | :07:55. | |
you chose a continuation of war and embarked on a path that might one | :07:56. | :08:00. | |
day lead to a prison cell in the day. Egypt is get back and laugh at | :08:01. | :08:05. | |
what he saw as my naivete and dismissed it as implausible. It did | :08:06. | :08:09. | |
back then seem like a naive dream, this idea of international justice. | :08:10. | :08:16. | |
It doesn't seem naive to light. The memory, I think, is instructive, in | :08:17. | :08:19. | |
the sense that it illustrates how far this process has come to | :08:20. | :08:25. | |
international justice, that has been built in the years since the killing | :08:26. | :08:29. | |
fields of Bosnia, how far that process has come in the | :08:30. | :08:33. | |
establishment of these special courts and the permanent | :08:34. | :08:37. | |
international criminal court. It was unthinkable 20 years ago that this | :08:38. | :08:41. | |
could happen. Alan that at the Hague. | :08:42. | :08:42. | |
Police in Belgium are continuing their search | :08:43. | :08:44. | |
for those responsible for the bomb attacks in Brussels on Tuesday, | :08:45. | :08:47. | |
The latest reports suggest that there may now be two | :08:48. | :08:50. | |
suspects on the run, after the attacks on the main | :08:51. | :08:53. | |
airport and the city's metro which so-called Islamic State | :08:54. | :08:55. | |
Belgians have observed another minute of silence | :08:56. | :08:59. | |
on the third day of national mourning, | :09:00. | :09:01. | |
as our Europe correspondent Damian Grammaticas reports. | :09:02. | :09:09. | |
Belgium's king led the national mourning today. | :09:10. | :09:16. | |
Even as he did, the Prime Minister was being offered | :09:17. | :09:19. | |
resignations by his ministers of interior and justice | :09:20. | :09:22. | |
He refused them, but promised a full investigation. | :09:23. | :09:29. | |
TRANSLATION: We cannot have impunity. | :09:30. | :09:32. | |
The government will do absolutely everything it can to shed | :09:33. | :09:35. | |
light on the attacks and everything that contributed to them. | :09:36. | :09:42. | |
Belgium's leaders now face the twin challenges | :09:43. | :09:45. | |
of guiding a nation which is still in mourning whilst also overseeing | :09:46. | :09:47. | |
what is an ongoing investigation and dealing with the questions | :09:48. | :09:51. | |
which arise - most of all, could more have | :09:52. | :09:55. | |
been done to stop the men who did this before they carried | :09:56. | :09:59. | |
At least one of the men had been linked since December | :10:00. | :10:05. | |
to the Paris attacks and had had Europe-wide arrest warrants issued | :10:06. | :10:09. | |
The first piece of new information concerns the metro | :10:10. | :10:19. | |
attack, carried By Khalid el-Bakraoui. | :10:20. | :10:21. | |
Now, police are believed to be looking for a second, | :10:22. | :10:23. | |
unidentified man carrying a large bag, seen talking to him just before | :10:24. | :10:26. | |
And there are more details about the airport attackers, too. | :10:27. | :10:31. | |
The mystery man in the hat who ran away is still being hunted. | :10:32. | :10:35. | |
The suicide bomber on the left may be | :10:36. | :10:37. | |
Najim Laachraoui, who it is thought made the Paris bombs, too. | :10:38. | :10:41. | |
And the other suicide bomber here was | :10:42. | :10:43. | |
Ibrahim el-Bakraoui, a convicted armed robber. | :10:44. | :10:47. | |
This was the aftermath five years ago of the raid in which he shot | :10:48. | :10:51. | |
He served his time but broke his parole conditions | :10:52. | :10:55. | |
Last June, Turkey arrested him on the Syrian border. | :10:56. | :11:00. | |
Belgium was informed but did not ask for his return. | :11:01. | :11:04. | |
The chance to jail him again was missed. | :11:05. | :11:10. | |
TRANSLATION: I feel in the circumstances it was right | :11:11. | :11:12. | |
The Prime Minister told me, in the current situation, | :11:13. | :11:17. | |
in a war, you cannot leave the field. | :11:18. | :11:24. | |
And the one man who could answer many | :11:25. | :11:26. | |
questions, the Paris attacker Salah Abdeslam, | :11:27. | :11:31. | |
now will not cooperate with Belgian police, according to his lawyer. | :11:32. | :11:33. | |
He wants to go to France, that is where | :11:34. | :11:36. | |
he wants to explain himself, he says. | :11:37. | :11:39. | |
In the meantime, Belgians are left grasping for answers. | :11:40. | :11:42. | |
Did it missed chances to prevent the atrocities? | :11:43. | :11:47. | |
And what about the men still on the loose? | :11:48. | :11:50. | |
More than 250 people were injured in Tuesday's attack, | :11:51. | :11:58. | |
There are six British people among the survivors - | :11:59. | :12:03. | |
One British man, David Dixon, is still missing. | :12:04. | :12:08. | |
Our Europe correspondent, Lucy Williamson, has been speaking | :12:09. | :12:11. | |
to one of those caught up in the bomb attack on the Metro. | :12:12. | :12:22. | |
Among the first to hear Mark's story of survival, | :12:23. | :12:23. | |
the Belgian king - how this British policy adviser | :12:24. | :12:25. | |
station and into the blast from a suicide bomb. | :12:26. | :12:29. | |
At his home in Brussels, Mark told me those few | :12:30. | :12:33. | |
seconds of chaos left him with concussion, vertigo | :12:34. | :12:36. | |
I remember shaking his hand goodbye as I stepped off the train | :12:37. | :12:45. | |
and that is the last thing I remember. | :12:46. | :12:50. | |
I have one static image of me crouching on some stairs, | :12:51. | :12:55. | |
While he was being treated on the ground | :12:56. | :12:59. | |
outside, he says rumours of a new threat began to sweep | :13:00. | :13:02. | |
The bystander who was helping me said, get up, get up, | :13:03. | :13:09. | |
So I got up with him and simply ran in the other direction. | :13:10. | :13:17. | |
Other stories ended very differently. | :13:18. | :13:20. | |
Dozens were killed or critically injured in the attacks. | :13:21. | :13:24. | |
Sebastien Bellin is a former basketball player, caught | :13:25. | :13:27. | |
He says his initial injuries helped him survive. | :13:28. | :13:32. | |
I remember falling down and my hip exploding. | :13:33. | :13:35. | |
Now I think about it over and over, I think that saved me, | :13:36. | :13:41. | |
because I was already on the ground when the second one went off. | :13:42. | :13:46. | |
At the military hospital here, soldiers | :13:47. | :13:48. | |
direct victims and their families to specialist care. | :13:49. | :13:52. | |
Roger came here today for a consultation on the shrapnel | :13:53. | :13:55. | |
He was at the airport with his sister when the explosions happened. | :13:56. | :14:00. | |
My sister cried, it's a bomb, and I said, run! | :14:01. | :14:08. | |
She was on the floor and she said, I can't, I'm out of breath. | :14:09. | :14:11. | |
Belgium's military hospital is starting to play a central role | :14:12. | :14:18. | |
in the aftermath of the attacks, a place with experience | :14:19. | :14:22. | |
of battlefield injuries and serious burns. | :14:23. | :14:25. | |
A centre for the relatives has also been set up here. | :14:26. | :14:29. | |
Many of them say they are frustrated at how difficult it is to | :14:30. | :14:32. | |
get concrete information about the wounded. | :14:33. | :14:36. | |
Several patients in intensive care have yet to be identified. | :14:37. | :14:39. | |
Today, the family friends of one missing man demanded | :14:40. | :14:41. | |
We are told that they are hard to recognise, they are bandaged, | :14:42. | :14:46. | |
but we are confident that a parent, a mother and father, | :14:47. | :14:50. | |
can identify if it is their son or daughter lying on the hospital bed. | :14:51. | :14:55. | |
Three days on, many here are still waiting to know their loved ones' | :14:56. | :14:59. | |
stories, unsure if they are tales of survival or death. | :15:00. | :15:03. | |
As the authorities race to uncover more information about the Brussels | :15:04. | :15:11. | |
attackers, attention has turned to the city suburbs where they lived | :15:12. | :15:15. | |
Those same suburbs have been mentioned in connection | :15:16. | :15:20. | |
with the 7/7 attacks in London, and the 9/11 attacks in New York. | :15:21. | :15:24. | |
Our special correspondent, Fergal Keane, has spent the past few | :15:25. | :15:27. | |
Belgium is a state in crisis and a crisis largely made at home. The | :15:28. | :15:41. | |
story of the Brussels attacks is one of serial failures, in intelligence, | :15:42. | :15:50. | |
and long before that, integration. In Molenbeek, where the ringleaders | :15:51. | :15:54. | |
lived, this was the first market day since the attacks. And the Mayor | :15:55. | :15:59. | |
from the centre-right Liberal Party told me the country was paying a | :16:00. | :16:03. | |
high praise for failing to integrate its Moroccan community. They have | :16:04. | :16:09. | |
difficulties, difficulties to find a job, difficulties to speak French, | :16:10. | :16:14. | |
or Flemish, so they feel discriminated. The first influx of | :16:15. | :16:20. | |
Moroccans was in the 1960s, invited by Belgium to fill gaps in the | :16:21. | :16:29. | |
labour market. This man came to Molenbeek in 1967 and says | :16:30. | :16:34. | |
employment helped him to feel he belonged. | :16:35. | :16:38. | |
TRANSLATION: Listen, the work I did was for the Social Welfare Office. | :16:39. | :16:43. | |
It meant that I was integrated, we helped the weak and homeless people. | :16:44. | :16:46. | |
I have helped Belgian people to have a good life. | :16:47. | :16:52. | |
For a new generation unemployment runs at 50% among under 25s. The | :16:53. | :16:58. | |
attackers were people who came to extremism from lives of petty crime. | :16:59. | :17:02. | |
Jihad offered a sense of belonging and an alibi for indulging in | :17:03. | :17:08. | |
brutality. This student told me how the marginalised were recruited. | :17:09. | :17:12. | |
They grew up in Swiss like this, they have Dutch rebel ideas, rebel | :17:13. | :17:18. | |
personality, it's ended up ideas, you know, it is about education | :17:19. | :17:27. | |
first. In the wake of the attacks there is a sense of crisis among | :17:28. | :17:33. | |
Belgium's Muslims. There is the refrain familiar from other scenes | :17:34. | :17:36. | |
of terror, the killers do not speak for Islam. Here at Brussel's main | :17:37. | :17:42. | |
Islamic Centre, we found a spirit of frankness, the Imam said moderate | :17:43. | :17:46. | |
clerics and the state needed to work together. | :17:47. | :17:52. | |
TRANSLATION: We've got to get young Imams out there who can use social | :17:53. | :17:56. | |
media to communicate with these young people. | :17:57. | :18:01. | |
A lot of Imams aren't active on this issue of radicalisation. Where are | :18:02. | :18:04. | |
the initiatives to reach out to young people? In Brussels, just as | :18:05. | :18:09. | |
in London after 7/7, the talk is of forging a new relationship between | :18:10. | :18:16. | |
Muslims and police. No more warnings ignored, solutions in better | :18:17. | :18:19. | |
intelligence and community relations. This mother believes it | :18:20. | :18:24. | |
is long overdue, she told me she warned police two of her sons were | :18:25. | :18:28. | |
getting ready to fight in Syria in 2013 and that they failed to act. | :18:29. | :18:33. | |
The boys went and are still fighting. | :18:34. | :18:39. | |
TRANSLATION: We went to the authorities to ask for help because | :18:40. | :18:44. | |
our first son was trying to go. We were told he'd done nothing wrong. | :18:45. | :18:49. | |
It was not forbidden to travel to Syria to fight against Bashar. | :18:50. | :18:56. | |
Everything was fine, they said. This woman grew up on the street | :18:57. | :18:59. | |
where Salah Abdeslam was arrested just days before the Brussels | :19:00. | :19:03. | |
attacks. Are you pessimistic about the future? I'm not pessimistic | :19:04. | :19:09. | |
because I think that now the focus is on Molenbeek, on Brussels, on the | :19:10. | :19:16. | |
politics and we have to use it for us, make things change and making me | :19:17. | :19:21. | |
pessimist is not going to change anything, so let's stay positive, | :19:22. | :19:25. | |
stay together, show acts of solidarity and move on together. | :19:26. | :19:30. | |
This place has become notorious in the media as jihadi central, but | :19:31. | :19:34. | |
Molenbeek is really much more complex than that. If there are | :19:35. | :19:38. | |
going to be solutions to this crisis, they'll have to be found | :19:39. | :19:43. | |
here. Among people who are just as frightened of IS as everybody else | :19:44. | :19:47. | |
in Europe. Fergal Keane, BBC News, Molenbeek. | :19:48. | :19:55. | |
We are getting reports of a major security operation in Paris. I'm | :19:56. | :19:58. | |
seeing a statement from the French Interior Minister, Bernard | :19:59. | :20:01. | |
Cazeneuve. He says the police have arrested a suspect in the Paris area | :20:02. | :20:07. | |
who was in the advanced stages of a plot to stage an attack in France. | :20:08. | :20:14. | |
The raid was in a neighbourhood north-west of Paris and he's calling | :20:15. | :20:20. | |
it a major arrest. Then he goes on to say, "No tangible evidence yet | :20:21. | :20:24. | |
linking the plot to either the attacks in Paris or Brussels." They | :20:25. | :20:26. | |
are calling it a major arrest. Our Europe editor, | :20:27. | :20:29. | |
Katya Adler, is in Brussels. What is clear now is the scale of | :20:30. | :20:37. | |
the challenge not least when you consider Fergal's conversations | :20:38. | :20:40. | |
there in Molenbeek, in Brussels, and the kinds of things that people are | :20:41. | :20:43. | |
saying about the events of the past two days? Well, yes, that's right. | :20:44. | :20:52. | |
Here, in Brussels, as you know, this central square is where people are | :20:53. | :20:56. | |
coming to unite in their grief and anger about this week's attacks. On | :20:57. | :21:05. | |
a wider level, Belgium is a divided country, politically, regionally, | :21:06. | :21:08. | |
linguistically between German, Flemish and French speakers, so this | :21:09. | :21:13. | |
means on a law-keeping level, on a criminal level, crime-fighting | :21:14. | :21:16. | |
level, it is very divided as well with one branch often not | :21:17. | :21:19. | |
communicating with the other, as it should. This is really a microcosm | :21:20. | :21:25. | |
for the divisions inside the EU when it comes to fighting terror. | :21:26. | :21:29. | |
Countries, Secret Services like to keep their secrets, they don't trust | :21:30. | :21:33. | |
outsiders and they put their national interests first. When it | :21:34. | :21:38. | |
comes to politicians, they fight hard to get into government, they | :21:39. | :21:42. | |
don't want to give up power to a bigger body, the EU in this case. At | :21:43. | :21:46. | |
the very highest levels, EU leaders here in Brussels tell me they are | :21:47. | :21:50. | |
very frustrated about that. They believe when it comes to fighting | :21:51. | :21:54. | |
cross-border terror, the only way to do that is with cross-border | :21:55. | :21:58. | |
co-operation and intelligence sharing. They say, we have | :21:59. | :22:02. | |
pan-European information databases where people can pull that | :22:03. | :22:07. | |
information about terror suspects, we have an anti-terrorism | :22:08. | :22:10. | |
coordinator, too. For these mechanisms to work, they have to be | :22:11. | :22:14. | |
used by EU countries. When it comes to the European public, when I | :22:15. | :22:17. | |
travel around, most people say they worry about the war in Syria, they | :22:18. | :22:21. | |
worry about the radicalisation of young Muslims, particularly men, | :22:22. | :22:25. | |
they are concerned about the civil liberties versus security debate. | :22:26. | :22:30. | |
Bottom line, they want to feel safe. This debate is really changing | :22:31. | :22:34. | |
because in those past big attacks, in Madrid, the two attacks in Paris, | :22:35. | :22:39. | |
leaders were clear, this must never happen again. Here in Brussels this | :22:40. | :22:44. | |
week, on the day that his capital city was bombed, the Belgium Prime | :22:45. | :22:48. | |
Minister was saying we have to be prepared for the real possibility of | :22:49. | :22:51. | |
further attacks and as you just said, we have heard from Paris that | :22:52. | :22:58. | |
the Interior Minister believes they have just averted another huge | :22:59. | :23:01. | |
attack there. Katya Adler with the latest for us in the Place de la | :23:02. | :23:03. | |
Bourse in Brussels. The former England and Sunderland | :23:04. | :23:05. | |
footballer Adam Johnson has been sentenced to six years in prison | :23:06. | :23:07. | |
for child sex offences. Johnson - who's 28 - | :23:08. | :23:11. | |
was found guilty earlier this month of sexual activity | :23:12. | :23:13. | |
with a 15-year-old girl. The judge told him he had | :23:14. | :23:15. | |
abused a position of trust and caused his victim 'severe | :23:16. | :23:17. | |
psychological harm'. Johnson is to appeal | :23:18. | :23:20. | |
against his conviction, as our correspondent, | :23:21. | :23:22. | |
Ed Thomas, reports. Protected by gates, hidden | :23:23. | :23:26. | |
by blacked-out windows. Closely guarding his | :23:27. | :23:34. | |
final hours of freedom. Waiting at court, dozens of police | :23:35. | :23:39. | |
officers and camera crews, Running, trying to sneak into court, | :23:40. | :23:44. | |
surrounded by a chaos From England footballer, | :23:45. | :23:57. | |
to child sex offender, the court heard Johnson | :23:58. | :24:11. | |
used his fame to abuse Prosecutors said it was classic | :24:12. | :24:14. | |
grooming. Judge Jonathan Rose told him, | :24:15. | :24:21. | |
"Because of your continued denials, this girl was scared, | :24:22. | :24:27. | |
intimidated, called a liar. You had a gift for football, | :24:28. | :24:31. | |
but embarked on a compulsive Adam Johnson exploited | :24:32. | :24:34. | |
a young star-struck fan, actively grooming her over a period | :24:35. | :24:40. | |
of months, in a single-minded pursuit of his own | :24:41. | :24:43. | |
sexual gratification. He gave no thoughts to the young | :24:44. | :24:46. | |
girl's interests or welfare. After his arrest, Johnson told | :24:47. | :24:50. | |
Sunderland he'd kissed the girl, His attitude to women | :24:51. | :24:54. | |
was called deplorable. Today, a statement from his | :24:55. | :25:00. | |
victim was read out. She said, "I have entered many dark | :25:01. | :25:03. | |
places and at times I've just wanted to shut the whole world out, | :25:04. | :25:06. | |
feeling unable to face anyone." And then there's this - | :25:07. | :25:11. | |
social media, online campaigns, You have this secondary trauma | :25:12. | :25:14. | |
of online trolling, and revictimisation, | :25:15. | :25:20. | |
if you like, of the victim. It is utterly unacceptable | :25:21. | :25:24. | |
and further compounds the impact In his own words, Johnson admitted | :25:25. | :25:28. | |
he was an arrogant footballer, who thought he could | :25:29. | :25:34. | |
get what he wanted. Adam Johnson said life | :25:35. | :25:39. | |
as a footballer came easy. He told the court he had a wealth | :25:40. | :25:43. | |
beyond his imagination. Adam Johnson left court | :25:44. | :25:47. | |
still denying the abuse. He says he will appeal | :25:48. | :25:59. | |
against his conviction. Ed Thomas, BBC News, | :26:00. | :26:03. | |
Bradford Crown Court. A trial has started in London | :26:04. | :26:07. | |
of a treatment which it's hoped might halt the progression | :26:08. | :26:09. | |
of Type 1 diabetes. The condition affects | :26:10. | :26:13. | |
400,000 people in the UK - Unlike Type 2 diabetes, | :26:14. | :26:16. | |
it is not linked to lifestyle, it's caused by a faulty | :26:17. | :26:21. | |
immune system. A group of volunteers will receive | :26:22. | :26:24. | |
a series of injections at Guy's Hospital, aimed | :26:25. | :26:26. | |
at resetting the immune system. Our medical correspondent, | :26:27. | :26:30. | |
Fergus Walsh, has had exclusive Checking blood sugar levels is vital | :26:31. | :26:33. | |
with Type 1 diabetes. Natalie has to calibrate how much | :26:34. | :26:41. | |
insulin she needs to stay healthy. She is part of a pioneering trial | :26:42. | :26:48. | |
of an immunotherapy treatment developed at the Biomedical Research | :26:49. | :26:51. | |
Centre at Guy's Hospital. This is the first of six injections | :26:52. | :26:56. | |
she will get in the coming months. I really hope it controls my | :26:57. | :27:01. | |
diabetes and slows the regression, so that I can live a bit | :27:02. | :27:04. | |
more of a normal life, like a normal person | :27:05. | :27:07. | |
would without diabetes. Type 1 diabetes is caused | :27:08. | :27:11. | |
when the immune system mistakenly attacks specialist beta | :27:12. | :27:14. | |
cells in the pancreas, which produce insulin, the hormone | :27:15. | :27:18. | |
which regulates blood sugar levels. The injections contain protein | :27:19. | :27:23. | |
fragments designed to retrain the immune system so that rather | :27:24. | :27:26. | |
than attacking pancreatic cells, Immunotherapy is showing great | :27:27. | :27:31. | |
promise across a range of diseases. In cancer, it is being used | :27:32. | :27:39. | |
to boost our natural defences so that they can recognise | :27:40. | :27:42. | |
and attack tumour cells. While in conditions like multiple | :27:43. | :27:47. | |
sclerosis, allergies and now Type 1 diabetes, the aim is to reset | :27:48. | :27:51. | |
the immune system so that it doesn't The immunologist leading the trial | :27:52. | :27:56. | |
says, if this approach works, the benefits to patients | :27:57. | :28:02. | |
could be significant. If we get in with this | :28:03. | :28:06. | |
therapy early enough, we protect the beta cells that | :28:07. | :28:09. | |
remain in those patients. That means they continue | :28:10. | :28:12. | |
to make their own insulin, and we know that that | :28:13. | :28:14. | |
gives them better control Better control of blood glucose | :28:15. | :28:17. | |
means that their risk of future complications of | :28:18. | :28:22. | |
diabetes is reduced. Those complications can include | :28:23. | :28:26. | |
kidney, eye and heart disease. Jack was part of an immunotherapy | :28:27. | :28:30. | |
trial last year. Although he still has to inject | :28:31. | :28:34. | |
insulin, he is confident My blood glucose control | :28:35. | :28:37. | |
has been really tight, and a large part of that, | :28:38. | :28:42. | |
to my mind, is a result of this It will be a while before we know | :28:43. | :28:46. | |
if immunotherapy really can slow the progression of diabetes | :28:47. | :28:53. | |
in people like 18-year-old Alex. If it does, it will be tested | :28:54. | :28:58. | |
in young children before the disease takes hold, with the goal | :28:59. | :29:02. | |
of preventing them The Dutch footballer Johan Cruyff - | :29:03. | :29:05. | |
one of the greatest players He was 68 and had been | :29:06. | :29:13. | |
diagnosed with lung cancer. Comparing him with Pele | :29:14. | :29:19. | |
and Maradona, Sir Bobby Charlton said that Johan Cruyff | :29:20. | :29:21. | |
had changed the game - and his influence was | :29:22. | :29:23. | |
still being felt today. Our sports editor, Dan Roan, | :29:24. | :29:30. | |
looks back at his life. Johan Cruyff turned | :29:31. | :29:31. | |
football on its head. A player so innovative, | :29:32. | :29:35. | |
so influential, he even had a move But the Cruyff turn was only part | :29:36. | :29:39. | |
of the legend, the Dutchman remembered as a sporting | :29:40. | :29:43. | |
revolutionary. Having learned his skills | :29:44. | :29:47. | |
on the streets of post-war Amsterdam, Cruyff joined local club | :29:48. | :29:49. | |
Ajax, his outrageous talent helping them enjoy a period | :29:50. | :29:53. | |
of unprecedented success. Six Dutch league titles | :29:54. | :29:57. | |
and the European Cup, Sold for a world record fee | :29:58. | :30:00. | |
to underperforming Spanish giants Barcelona in 1973, Cruyff guided | :30:01. | :30:08. | |
the club to the domestic title for the first time in more | :30:09. | :30:12. | |
than a decade, the Nou Camp The word great, the word legend | :30:13. | :30:15. | |
sometimes is used a little bit You become great when you score | :30:16. | :30:22. | |
a goal in a game, but there are one or two greats, | :30:23. | :30:31. | |
there are one or two legends, Cruyff never won football's ultimate | :30:32. | :30:34. | |
prize, but he was the pivotal figure in a Dutch team that lit | :30:35. | :30:41. | |
up the 1974 World Cup. COMMENTARY: Cruyff has | :30:42. | :30:45. | |
come very deep indeed. In the end, the Netherlands lost | :30:46. | :30:47. | |
the final to West Germany but Cruyff and his team-mates will always be | :30:48. | :30:54. | |
remembered as the ultimate expression of total football, | :30:55. | :30:57. | |
an attacking tactic where players constantly switched positions, | :30:58. | :31:00. | |
energising a sport stuck Having been crowned European Player | :31:01. | :31:04. | |
of the Year three times, Cruyff's thoughts turned | :31:05. | :31:10. | |
to the future. After 15 years looking after things, | :31:11. | :31:13. | |
winning, winning, winning. I'd like now to teach | :31:14. | :31:17. | |
and try to give a little of my experience to | :31:18. | :31:22. | |
the younger players. As a coach Cruyff masterminded | :31:23. | :31:24. | |
league titles and a European trophy at Ajax, before leading Barcelona | :31:25. | :31:29. | |
to four league championships and their first European Cup, | :31:30. | :31:33. | |
establishing a style of play the club owes its dominance | :31:34. | :31:38. | |
to even now. I was lucky enough to work for him | :31:39. | :31:41. | |
at Barcelona for a year, He was the best player | :31:42. | :31:44. | |
in training most of the time, even though he is way | :31:45. | :31:49. | |
past his sell-by date He was an extraordinarily talented | :31:50. | :31:51. | |
individual and also a great Cruyff was a free thinker, | :31:52. | :31:56. | |
a heavy smoker until he gave up, going on to campaign for others | :31:57. | :32:02. | |
to quit, too. Above all, he will be remembered | :32:03. | :32:05. | |
for his style, his vision, his elegance, and his belief that | :32:06. | :32:08. | |
football must be played A belief that's formed part of every | :32:09. | :32:11. | |
