Hello and welcome to Outside Source. The chief suspect in Saturday's New

York attackers in custody. Two police officers were injured during

a shoot out in New Jersey. The mayor of New York gave a briefing earlier.

Based on the information we have now we have every reason to believe this

was an act of terror. Following the coup in Turkey last month, there has

been a purge of teachers. Millions of children have gone back to school

and there are not enough teachers to take their lessons. We will learn

more about that. I will also play an interview with the Mayor of London,

Sadiq Khan, who is in New York. This is a multifaceted story with

the of different developments. Number We're going to work through

all of them with you. There is confirmation that they have their

chief suspect after explosions in New York and New Jersey at the

weekend. These are pictures we have just after the arrest. You can see

the suspect on a stretcher. He was found sleeping in a bar by the owner

of the bar who phoned the police. A shoot out followed. He is 28 years

old and is American, of Afghan origin. A number of stills have also

emerged of the arrest. Here you can see the suspect on the ground and

another one here with his face pushed to the ground with blood on

his right arm and shoulder. Two police officers were shot during the

arrest. The Americans have released this picture with the word

apprehended across his face. He was arrested in New Jersey. Here is the

New York mayor speaking just after the arrest. We have every reason to

believe this was an act of terror. We will be going into some detail

and there is still a long investigation ahead, but now we have

every reason to believe this was an act of terror. In addition we want

to note that because this is an ongoing investigation, people in New

York must remain vigilant. They may hear a piece of information that

could aid the NYPD and the FBI. We want people to be vigilant. He is

referring to the attack on Saturday night in Manhattan. We can look at

some of the most important pictures. This is from Saturday night. A

pressure cooker felt pressure Apple exploded and 29 people were injured.

On Saturday morning a tight on exploded near a charity race in New

Jersey. This morning we know another device exploded near a train station

in New Jersey. A police robot was trying to disarm the device but it

exploded before the robot had finished its work. These are

pictures of police officers carrying out a raid on a house in New Jersey.

That was before the arrest of the chief suspect. To put this in

context, the former New York Police Commissioner has been saying that

this is the first significant terror attack in New York since 9-11. The

story is being covered from Manhattan. We have highlighted

Chelsea in Manhattan where the pressure cooker exploded. Here is an

update. The investigation is going on and the threat is not gone even

though they have no indication of any other bombs at this point. The

mayor made it clear that people should remain vigilant. They will

see increased security throughout the week in the city. The UN General

Assembly is happening here. Security forces have been added, I read 2000

extra two bus stations and tourist sites. That will continue.

We have talked about New Jersey and New York, but there was another

attack in Minnesota. A man dressed in a security uniform stabbed nine

people in a shopping centre. Nobody was killed. The attacker did lose

his life. He was a 22-year-old Somali student. An off duty police

officer shot him dead. Islamic State have been claiming responsibility

for this attack but it is impossible to say whether they had any

involvement in the planning of it. President Obama spoke earlier about

all of these incidents. At this point we see no connection between

that incident and what happened in New York and New Jersey. Our

attention there is on the people who were injured and we are very

grateful that no one died. Thanks to the quick action of our brave of

duty police officer, the suspect was killed and we avoided more people

being hurt. I have also spoken to the governor this morning and

assured him that we will provide all the assistance that he needs in the

investigation. The FBI is investigating the Minnesota incident

as a potential act of terrorism and we will direct the full resources of

the federal government to make sure that the investigation goes forward

aggressively. The BBC is travelling across parts of America by train,

reporting on the US election. He is in Minneapolis at the moment, not

far from where the stabbing attack happened. This report looks a

reaction to the attack. Tens of thousands of Somali Muslims

live in Minnesota, most refugees fleeing conflict or their children.

This weekend one Somali man went on a stabbing spree, injuring several

people before he was shot dead. The question has been raised again in

America, how do you stop attacks perpetrated by Muslims on

ideological grounds? How do you stop anything? How do you stop murderers?

For national programmes to targeted community because they do not know

how to stop something. They think they can put a blanket over a whole

community to stop if you people, criminalising everyone. This man

feels the surveillance, the media finger pointing, and the anti-Musa

rhetoric is having an adverse impact. The approach that they have

towards the Muslim community in America is to make you feel as

un-American as possible. Promoting fear. That does the job of Isis

because they are saying that they do not want you. But a small number

have joined jihadi groups. Nine Somali men were imprisoned for

planning to join Isis. The same department are prosecuted them is

also giving out money to community groups to try to prevent

radicalisation. Some said that the money is not welcome. Of course I

want the funding and these authors, but if this is being presented to us

through a counterterrorism lens you're telling me that I am an

issue. He is accepting government funds to educate and mentor. The

counterterrorism tag does bother her, but the money is needed for

young people. The children are going through a lot. Many of them do not

know how to swim. They are looking for opportunities and to belong

somewhere. They may argue about state funds, but most agree that

with all the angry rhetoric in recent months American Muslims are

under pressure in the US like never before. I have never feel threatened

for the 23 years that I've lived in the US, ever. Until this election.

That she also feels could be counter-productive and potentially

alienating more young people. Inevitably this series of attacks

across the last three days has become elliptical. Donald Trump, the

Republican presidential candidate, says that under Hilton -- Hillary

Clinton and Obama Americans have experienced more attacks at home

than victories abroad. Here is the Democratic line from Hillary

Clinton. You do not hear a plan from hemp because he has no plan. We

should focus on what we can really do and what I have laid out is a

powerful web that will keep us safe, protect our country and go after the

terrorists to destroy them. On the BBC News that they will find an

article titled New York Bombing, could blast affect the race for the

White House? What is his answer? It is inevitable that it becomes

political, but can change the dynamic of the race?

We can see. It is interesting to look at this in the context of the

Orlando shooting. Everyone thought that might tilt it towards Donald

Trump, here's the outsider and has made national security a big issue.

He came out strongly early on for predicting it and calling on Barack

Obama to resign and giving a fiery speech. Then he lost in the polls

and Hillary Clinton moved up as far as ratings for national security and

how she handled it. Donald Trump has taken a different tack now. He was

quiet yesterday. Last night he started taking some shots at Hillary

Clinton and he is more aggressive today. He is keeping in mind that he

cannot push too far or there will be public discontent.

Given that he is behind, when both candidates are dealing with

unexpected scenario it gives them a chance, which are regular D

campaign Trail would not do. It does help him change the subject

from the earthing controversy last Friday where he said that he had to

believe that Barack Obama was born in the US, after spending five years

questioning the centre city of his birth to forget. Now they are

talking about national security. He is not too far behind, so he does

not need things to shake up too far, but it helps change the narrative

from what was looking like a bad weekend for him.

What about Hillary Clinton? She had a difficult weekend weather held

last weekend, but has she got back on track since then?

It seems like it. She gave a speech earlier today in Philadelphia that

was pitched towards younger voters and that is the key for her. She has

lost a lot of support from younger voters. She has lost some

third-party candidates, such as the Green Party. In her press conference

earlier today she made a point of stressing that she was the only

candidate with national security qualifications. She is trying to use

that issue to pool voters who may have been bleeding to third-party

candidates to stick with her because they see her as a strong candidate

who could come through in difficult times.

Thank you. I have spotted this message from the BBC's economic

editor. Someone has describes the Brexit situation as a local issue.

We will be talking about that after the break.

Here in the UK a former taxi driver has been found guilty of the murder

of the girl, whose body was found in Gloucestershire in 2011. She was

last seen alive eight years earlier getting into a taxi in Swindon. The

52-year-old man is already serving a life sentence for the murder of

another woman who went missing after a night out with friends five years

ago. We have waited over five years for this momentous day. It has been

an extremely painful journey, but today we have received the Justice

that has felt like an eternity coming for our beautiful little

girl, Becky. We have all sat and listened to heartbreaking evidence

every day to enable the jury to come to their decision. Welcome back to

the BBC newsroom and Outside Source. The man wanted in connection with

the bomb attacks in New Jersey and your has been arrested after a shoot

out. You can see him lying on a stretcher here. He was found

sleeping in the doorway of the bar. We will bring you some of the main

stories from BBC World Service. 17 soldiers have been killed in an

attack on a military base in Kashmir. It is one of the most

deadly in recent years. India has accused Pakistan of masterminding

it, Pakistan's foreign department has condemned what they have said.

Michael Schumacher's lawyer has said that he cannot walk. This is part of

a lawsuit by a German magazine that I called Schumacher could manage to

what. It was game of the runs at the Emmys in Los Angeles. It's total

stands at 38 any awards. That is more than any other in history. I

want to begin Outside Source business by showing your comments on

Brexit by two powerful businessmen. This is Matt Britton who leads

Google in Europe, the Middle East and Africa. He is talking with the

BBC's economics editor. Silicon valley, the sun-kissed home to the

American giant some have argued could never have made it in Britain.

Multi-billion pound company started in garages and university dorms.

Here in the UK, the head of Google says things are improving but what

is the recipe for success? You need entrepreneurs, skills and finance.

We have amazing skills. Google employs more than 4000 people in the

UK. Access to finance is getting better. The ambition and the

realisation you can do big global things as ever more present British

entrepreneurs. Much focuses on the referendum result, concern to many

tech leaders. But this is a global battle where even the EU is a local

matter. The Internet population is doubling. That will happen and 4-5

years. That is the trend entrepreneurs need to be paying

attention to. I'm sure the government will sort out solutions

for all the local issues around Brexit. Success in tech comes in

many forms. Here are robots making a difference that the Dyson factory.

Our setup is about creating technology. The founders said that

the next Google could be making batteries are creating artificial

intelligence. Software applied to hardware is growing faster than

companies like Google and Gruber and Amazon. I think technology idea only

companies involved in the Internet, that is not the case. This is

London's silicon valley. It was here that David Cameron made his famous

speech have skinned why there is not a Google in the UK. Since then there

has been rapid expansion. The number of tech companies based here six

years ago was 85 and that has increased to 2500. Up the road there

is a maker of virtual reality worlds. The founders says the final

price is huge. One break out success is worth more than the average

outcome for thousands of other companies because that single sex

pest becomes the foundation when its employees leave and start companies.

-- because that single success becomes the foundation. That is why

silicon valley has become successful, smaller businesses have

grown from it. The hunt for Titans goes on for a sector that already

employs 1.6 million people. We may not yet have a Google but do not

underestimate other companies. Next I want to play you what we have

heard is from the CEO of Glaxo Smith Kline. There has been conjecture

about whether the UK can stay in the single market when it exes the EU.

Here is his analysis of that. There is a lot of talk in uncertainty and

that may have some effect in some parts of the economy, but for a

company like my nothing has changed. It is unlikely that anything will

change for two or more years, until after article 15 executed and

negotiated. When that process begins in concludes, we are most interested

in regulations, what will the UK's relationship be with the EU

regulators, and we do not know that yet. We are in putting our thoughts

and ideas. We are looking forward to seeing specifics. The second big

question is if we will be in the single market or not? We are working

on the assumption that we will not, so our plans are sinning something

that is like a WTO or environment rather than a continuation of the

single market. That might be wrong but that is what we are working on

at the moment. To reason me is thinking about Brexit every day and

she is in New York at the moment for the UN General Assembly. She will be

talking to major companies and investors. We are live to New York.

Who will choose a maybe meeting? It will be a Who's Who from the

world of finance. She is meeting Chief Executive is for Morgan

Stanley, Goldman Sachs, United technologies, just some of those who

are expected to be attending a meeting at the British General

consul home here in New York. Theresa May made some time in her

schedule. She is here to attend the United Nations General Assembly, but

she wanted to meet these senior figures in the US finance sector to

see what issues they want to address regarding Brexit.

I'm presuming that many would preferred that Brexit did not

happen? Many of lobbied ahead of the vote.

The BBC has spoken to Goldman Sachs executives in the past two said it

would be damaging, certainly to Britain's standing as a financial

centre. The reason has to do with Pat sporting. Many of the banks that

are based in the UK are able to do business with the rest of the EU.

The concern is, depending on the nature of the negotiations, will

that be able to continue or will they be forced to move their

operations to the continent in the EU? That is the question and that is

what Theresa May once to find out. She was to see how important it is

to them and what their concerns are. We will speak to you later in the

week. Now to Russia, where one of the more predictable outcomes the

party backed by President Putin has won a majority in the Russian

parliamentary elections. United Russia 154.2% of the vote. -- 54%.

But turnout was that a record low at 47%. These are some pictures from

the archive of protest after the 2011 election. These people were

unhappy about allegations of vote rigging. Similar claims this time

around. Here at the central Russian election

commission we had been able to watch some of the ballot boxes with the

help of webcams. The authorities promised that this election be be

honest, transparent and fair. But the web can still do different

story. Keep an eye on the officials who is seated. When she thinks no

one is looking, she takes ballot papers. The woman in Black tries to

cover her. She stands at the ballot box and stuff them in. This is an

important point. Even excepting any problems, it is a landslide win for

United Russia and the big defeat for the opposition. I have been speaking

to our correspondent about the population of the party. People do

support it, they support him because there is no viable political

alternative Russia. That does not mean that it is not there, it has

been suppressed, it has not been given any access to the media, to

the television, political parties have stopped from being registered

for the election. The entire political spectrum has been left

just to the obedient parties. President Putin is very powerful

already. Does this result make a more powerful?

It makes a more confident. When we were talking about the previous

election in 2011 when there were huge rallies and protests, it seemed

at the time that the entire power structure that President Putin

presides over was shaking. It was shattering. It did not look very

convincing. Now it proves the stability and that is President

Putin's favour as well. Some breaking news concerning Syria.

We have been talking about the ceasefire in Syria this week and one

of the main purposes of that was to try and get aid to a bull. The UN is

confirming that a convoy carrying aid has been struck while travelling

to a pool -- Aleppo. This aid convoy has been struck. Outrage has been

expressed over the attack. We will get you more details and a full

update on the ceasefire in a couple of minutes.
