Hello, I'm Ros Atkins, this is Outside Source.

A Europe-wide manhunt is underway for this Tunisian man.

He's the chief suspect in the Berlin truck attack, he's on the run -

This person attracted the attention of several security services in

Germany through his contacts to radical Islamist 's.

We'll explain why - and how the industry is already

working to persuade Donald Trump to reverse the decision.

I've a new Justin Rowlatt report on how airlines in India will face

fines if their planes release human waste over residential areas.

And in sport, we've an important ruling on concussion in rugby,

With relation to the bowling truck attack.

German police issued a warrant for a suspect

He sought asylum after arriving in Germany last year.

It's also emerged that he was known to German authorities

because of his links to an Islamist extremist.

This is the latest report from our Berlin correspondent Jenny Hill.

You're looking at Europe's most wanted man.

Anis Amri is the only suspect in the investigation

into the attack which shattered Germany.

TRANSLATION: There's a new suspect, we are searching for him.

We issued a warrant for this suspect's arrest at midnight.

The warrant covers the whole of Germany and most of Europe.

We're learning more about the 24-year-old Tunisian.

He was refused asylum but granted temporary leave to stay.

He was known to the authorities, considered a threat because of his

links to one of Germany's most notorious Islamist networks.

And he'll be hard to find - he used six different names

The hijacked lorry used in Monday's attack

is yielding its grim evidence - documents leading to

It's thought he struggled with the man who should have been

behind the wheel, before shooting him dead.

Germany's misery compounded by the suggestion again that one

of those who sought asylum here may have been responsible.

Earlier, the far-right Dutch politician Geert Wilders posted

a picture of the Chancellor, her hands covered in blood.

Do you blame Angela Merkel for what happened?

"Angela Merkel," she says, "is a humanitarian woman."

"She did the right thing a year ago, no-one could know

Germany's Foreign Minister joined today by his Italian counterpart.

Among those missing and feared dead is Fabrizia Di Lorenzo,

TRANSLATION: We have to realise that we are vulnerable right

in the middle of our country, of our capital.

We have to realise that we aren't spared the kind of attacks

Tonight, they don't know where their main suspect is.

In fact, they're offering a reward of 100,000 euros.

But this investigation does now have a face and a focus.

That is, for some here perhaps, a little light in the darkness.

We will keep you up-to-date on any developments in Germany.

Here's President Barack Obama, announcing he's permanently banning

oil and gas drilling in the "vast majority" of US-owned northern

waters, that's a reference to the northern Atlantic

It's not just arctic waters, northern waters.

These areas have always been of particular concern

because of disasters such as the Exxon Valdez

Two years ago, a Shell drilling rig ran aground in the Arctic,

that highlighted that this is a high risk environment.

Although there was no spill in that case.

This is the reaction of the American Petroleum Institute

which lobbies for the oil and gas industries.

This is pretty late in the day for president Obama to be issuing bands

like this. -- bans. Here's Matt McGrath

on why that might be. It's more about the future, there

are projects in the Arctic which will continue but no company is

drilling there. They have leases, shell has one existing lease but

they tried a couple of years ago. It's all about the future. At this

moment, nobody thinks those companies will go there, which is

why he is putting emphasis on this one, permanent. Whether it is

published remains to be seen. Tell us about the practicalities of this

environment. It has got to be high-risk and if something happens

it is harder to clear up? Imagine, it's stormy, frigid, dark several

months of the year, it is a difficult place. Probably the worst

place in the world to get oil we've had lots of accidents. The US, it

estimates if they drilled there, there is a 75% chance of a major

accident of the next century. Laura is live with us from Washington, DC.

How can one president issue a ban that lasts indefinitely?

The question is whether he can or not. President Obama and his legal

counsel has reverted to a rather obscure law from 1953 which is all

about the continental shelf. They believe that under that law, the

president does indeed have a right to permanently ban offshore

drilling, not only in federal waters in the Arctic but also the north

Atlantic. As you were saying. Of course, we already heard the

reporting of the petroleum industry saying this is not the case. This

will head for the course. Incoming President-elect Donald Trump.

Central to his vision for Rhian industrialising America is the fact

that he wants more drilling, more mining for fossil fuels but

President Obama believes he has been trying to move America away from

that, towards renewable energy because of this concern on climate

change. President-elect Donald Trump has said climate change is a hoax by

the Chinese, they could not be more diametrically opposed. If we take it

President Obama has wanted to push the agenda, how can he has left a

decision on this scale to just weeks to go? -- outcome. Partly because of

the appointments that are being made by the Trump administration, the

incoming Trump administration. Donald Trump's pic for secretary of

state is Rex Tillerson, currently running Exxon Mobile who is an

oilman with links to the Russians. Because he has a personal

relationship with Vladimir Putin, Donald Trump wants to have better

relations with Russia, is it possible there could be some kind of

US- Russian deal on drilling in the Arctic? It would be in the economic

interests of both countries. Because nobody quite knows what's happening,

the bomb administration is rushing this through and they are very

concerned because the Environmental Protection Agency, the man needed to

run that comes from being the Attorney General of oil and gas rich

Oklahoma. -- because of the Obama administration. He has been riding

with the EPA and trying to pull back the regulations that are in place

say they are too odorous. It is is interesting.

It is about what is going on under the radar. The broader transition?

We are not very long now from the President-elect becoming the

president. It has been feverish ever since Donald Trump won, is there a

brief pause at Christmas or does this continue all the way to

Inauguration Day? There is a brief pause. The President-elect is going

to be in Florida in his wonderful ma Ola go estate. He has taken his

breathing teams with him. We will get a slight lull the next

two weeks. In January, January the six,

everyone will rush full frontal towards the inauguration. The key

thing to watch for in early January is when Congress starts looking at

Donald Trump's key jobs like secretary of state. Thank you. I

hope you and everyone else in the Washington bureau gets a couple of

days's rest before things pick up again ahead of Donald Trump's

inauguration. Let's turn to sport. There's a big debate

here in the UK at the moment It's been sparked by an incident

involving George North. Those of you in the UK need no

introduction. He's a big star for Wales

and for Northampton. And it was during a game

for his club that he appeared to be But after being assessed,

he was allowed to keep on playing. Today, it was decided that shouldn't

have happened, but the club How is this justified? They rule

one-way and appear to go out the other way in terms of punishment.

This is tricky. Concussion management review group, the first

time they got together, they looked at this for the last couple of

weeks, they took over two and a half weeks, this was a match earlier this

month. But Leicester and Northampton. Lester won. This

condition came in the second half. George North has been at the centre

of concussion discussions over the past couple of years. This is the

third or fourth time it has happened. It exacerbated this issue.

He was involved in a mid air tackle. He landed heavily and one camera

angle, it seems like he was sparked out. This head injury assessment

protocol, when the medical teams have something like you and I, they

look at these different angles on their tablets, but somehow this

angle that showed that he looked to be knocked out escaped them. He was

assessed for eight minutes and they decided... George North said I was

lying very still because I was worried about my neck, it was not me

being knocked out. They took the player's word and looked at him very

closely and they sent him back on. This concussion management review

group have decided that they got it very badly wrong. And that George

North should not have gone back on the field of play. They said the

system just let those Northampton medics down, somewhat. They didn't

have the full evidence. They said they always have the players best

interest at heart but have, and not the recommendations. To try and make

sure this doesn't happen again. Thank you. Concussion is a big issue

in rugby, American football and a number of other sports. We will talk

about it again. This is not the catchiest of titles,

but an excellent event. This is the Billabong Pipe Masters -

the final stop of the tour. That's 11-time champion Kelly Slater

in the semi-final there. This next is known as a barrel ride,

that's Filipe Toledo doing Which is why he emerges looking

very, very pleased indeed. But it was this man,

Michel Bourez, who won. It was his best

result of the season. Here's what he had to

say after the event. I feel like it's probably

the second best victory I The first one was in 2008, you know,

I had just qualified that But now, I have that

trophy in my hand it's Not sure if we've covered

ice swimming before. Next month, it's the second

world championships. If you're interested,

it involves swimming a mile in water Let's find out what that's

all about with a man who has this incredible job title,

he's the Founder of the International Ice

Swimming Association. It hurts, there's no hiding from the

for a short while. And then you are for a short while. And then you are

feeling great for a long time. The risk return is quite nice,

sometimes, yeah. Before you go into the water, I personally go into a

sort of different zone. I don't like people talking to me. I need quiet.

My metabolism probably slows down and I focus.

And then you dive into the water. I like to get almost hot before I go

into the water. I almost desire to jump into the icy

water. The body goes into a shock. Experience and acclimatisation

allows you to handle that shock. You go numb. The ice takes your

breath away. The most important thing when you get into the ice is

to breathe. Get your breathing right, get your rhythm right.

The blood starts shutting down and your brain starts shutting down and

your extremities. You need to learn how to continue your stroke while

there isn't much oxygen left in New Orleans. -- in your limbs. The

approach is very responsible. I would not say go and plunge into ice

and swim tomorrow, we have rules, we have experience. We understand a

lot. We have changed a lot of thoughts about the whole thing in

the last ten years. A lot of things that were thought to be impossible

and deadly are now considered to be very possible. Might be possible,

but I am not sure I am going to be queueing up to do it, he is not

giving it the hard sell. By swimming, easy to join online, to

take part in the next World Championships. We must turn to an

awful story from Siberia in Russia. We'll have the latest from Siberia

where at least 60 people are now known to have died after drinking

an alcoholic bath lotion. A multi-millionaire property

developer from south Wales has been jailed for a minimum of 25 years,

for murdering of his Georgina Symonds, mother

to a five-year-old daughter - she was strangled by the man

who called himself her sugar daddy. The 25-year-old had met property

millionaire Peter Morgan The married 54-year-old had become

infatuated with her. But the court heard he killed her

in a carefully planned attack out of cold anger on finding out

that she planned to blackmail him. In a statement read on her behalf,

Georgina Symonds's mother, Deborah, The death of my daughter,

Georgina Symonds, has been a devastating tragedy

for the whole of our family. Her beautiful daughter

has been left without a mum. Georgina has left a hole in our

lives that will never be repaired. During their relationship,

the father of two had paid Georgina Symonds up to ?10,000

a month, taken her on helicopter She moved into a bungalow

in the grounds of a ruined mansion that he owned,

but she didn't know that he'd installed a listening device

disguised as a plug adapter. The multimillionaire overheard

a conversation in which she spoke of plans to blackmail him

by threatening to send intimate Police visited her bungalow

when she was reported missing after failing to pick

up her daughter from school. This body-cam footage

records Morgan claiming Where did you think

she was going at 12 o'clock? But Georgina Symonds

was already dead. Peter Morgan had concealed her body

in a barn at his family home. This was the moment that

Peter Morgan told police The trouble was, once I'd sort

of attempted to murder her, I'd be in a hell of a lot of trouble

for that, and she could have still gone on and

blackmailed me, couldn't she? During his trial, the jury been

told that Peter Morgan He had denied murder on the grounds

of diminished responsibility, but the judge told him

that the plans that he had made and the steps he'd taken to cover up

what he'd done showed that he was in control

and understood his actions. Peter Morgan showed no emotion

as he was sentenced to life in prison with a minimum of 25 years

for the murder of Georgina Symonds. Sian Lloyd, BBC News,

Newport Crown Court. This is Outside Source live

from the BBC newsroom. Police in Germany are searching

for a Tunisian man as the main suspect behind the attack

on a Christmas market on Monday. Officials say he had been previously

monitored by security services. We turn to Siberia and this horrific

story of people dying after Over 60 people have

lost their lives, 40 The essence was drunk

as an alternative to alcoholic drinks -

but it contains methanol. And that is what's

killed these people. This is the Kremlin's website -

and here the President has put a list of instructions on state

regulation of production and sale But this is a long-term problem

that's not easily solved. What ever the president does this

week. Last month the Deputy Prime Minister

said: Given that alcohol

substitutes are that popular, I've been talking to the BBC's

Russian's Olga Ivshina about why this particular liquid

has proved so deadly. It depends on guys, where they got

this liquid from, how they used to put it into bottles and how they

used to sell it. Those cases where lethal from time to time. It's quite

common that some people die from that. It's no surprise for the

Russians. But this time, just the number of deaths is horrific. How

does the trade work if their Russian would like to buy an alternative to

more traditional alcoholic drinks? Where do they go? It depends. Most

commonly they would go to a pharmacy shop because those liquids, some of

those liquids, are considered to be oceans, pharmacies.

There are also some vending machines where you can buy one. It would cost

you about 50p, to get half a litre, basically. Do pharmacies have to

take responsibility for how they are selling these products? Would you

get warnings from the pharmacist or warnings on the bottle, only to be

used in the bath? There are warnings on the bottles but again, everyone

who buys it basically knows they buy it for drinking. People who don't

buy those things for baths because, commonly, you don't use it. The main

purpose of those things, why they exist, is for the categories of

heavy drinkers to get another shot. A strange and terrible story. Thank

you to Olver. If you speak Russian, you can get news from BBC Russia

.com. A man living near New Delhi Airport

says his home is covered in human waste that's

being dropped by planes. It is something that can be called a

blue ice incident. It has led the regulator to respond.

It's led to airlines in India facing fines if they release waste

The claim is that planes are regularly discharging their toilets

A retired Indian army officer claims his

balcony, very near where I'm standing now, is

regularly splattered with human excrement.

Now, he cannot prove that this is from planes, but

his complaint was taken up by the national green tribunal,

And it has ordered that India's aviation

regulator makes sure the airlines do not dump human waste in this way.

There will be spot checks on plane toilets, if the

special tanks used to store human waste

are suspiciously empty, the

airline could face a fine of up to 50,000 rupees,

A senior Indian pilot told the BBC today that planes do sometimes

have to discharge waste from their toilets.

He said this is a very rare emergency, a bit like when they

discharge fuel to reduce the weight of the plane.

There is, however, another way in which human waste can

What happens is this, there are overflow

pipes from these tanks, waste can build up around that overflow pipe.

Because planes fly at such a high altitude, it's very

cold, they can build up into a big block of ice.

This can fall from the plane and can, very occasionally,

So whether the measures introduced today will do

anything to reduce the risk of being dumped

Adam Sala has told us the BBC, he was speaking to his mother on the

phone in Arabic and he was told to get off. We spoke a different

language on the plane and now we getting kicked out. That's insane.

We're getting kicked out because we spoke a different language. This is

2016. 2016. Look, Delta airlines are kicking us out because we spoke

different language. Because we spoke a different language. It's been
