That is all from BBC News At Six, I will be back with more from | :00:00. | 3:59:59 | |
Edinburgh at ten. Welcome to South East Today. | :00:00. | :00:11. | |
Tonight's top stories. The sex offender offered | :00:12. | :00:14. | |
compensation because of delays in trying to deport him ` and the fury | :00:15. | :00:18. | |
of a father whose teenage girl he abused. We're live with the details | :00:19. | :00:27. | |
in Dartford. Chaos on the trains for self that | :00:28. | :00:32. | |
for thousands after rush`hour trains are cancelled. | :00:33. | :00:35. | |
Abused online ` a woman whose mother died at a Sussex care home says | :00:36. | :00:39. | |
anonymous attacks are adding to her distress. It just makes you angry, | :00:40. | :00:47. | |
that someone has felt that they could comment on something that they | :00:48. | :00:54. | |
know nothing about. Popping up in Ashford ` The Hotel | :00:55. | :00:57. | |
Inspector, Alex Polizzi, gives her advice to new businesses setting up | :00:58. | :01:02. | |
shop. And off`the`cuff remark? Why David | :01:03. | :01:08. | |
Cameron wore a big `` jewellery designer's cuff links after losing a | :01:09. | :01:16. | |
bet. Good evening. The father of a | :01:17. | :01:19. | |
13`year`old girl abused by a foreign sex offender in Kent says he's | :01:20. | :01:22. | |
outraged that the man is entitled to compensation because judges have | :01:23. | :01:25. | |
ruled that his human rights have been breached. Jumaa Kater Saleh was | :01:26. | :01:32. | |
part of a gang who lured under`age girls to a house in Dartford for | :01:33. | :01:36. | |
sex. The Court of Appeal has ruled that he was held for too long while | :01:37. | :01:39. | |
unsuccessful attempts were made to deport him. Simon Jones reports. | :01:40. | :01:49. | |
A convicted sex offender. He is now in line for a pay`out, to the horror | :01:50. | :01:54. | |
of the father of his 13`year`old quick Tim. We are not showing his | :01:55. | :02:00. | |
face to protect the girl's identity. It's horrifying, after the years he | :02:01. | :02:07. | |
has sentenced, he has done half and now he is entitled to compensation. | :02:08. | :02:10. | |
My daughter has not received a penny. What do you think of him? He | :02:11. | :02:21. | |
is scum. Jumaa Kater Saleh fled Somalia saying he faced persecution. | :02:22. | :02:29. | |
In May 2008, he was convicted with `` of sexual activity with a | :02:30. | :02:34. | |
13`year`old schoolgirl. Although released in 2009, he was detained | :02:35. | :02:37. | |
for 15 months while it was considered where he should be | :02:38. | :02:42. | |
deported. He spent that time at the removal centre at Heathrow. It has | :02:43. | :02:47. | |
been ruled that the decision that he can stay because his life might be | :02:48. | :02:52. | |
at risk in Sudan, took too long. I think it is disgraceful and I feel | :02:53. | :02:58. | |
sorry for the parents and other victims in Dartford. That managers | :02:59. | :03:01. | |
have been deported at the end of his sentence and it is a disgrace that | :03:02. | :03:07. | |
he was not. `` at that man should have been. The Court of Appeal said | :03:08. | :03:13. | |
that pass criminal offending cannot love itself be any justification for | :03:14. | :03:17. | |
extending his period of detention and the lack of isolation makes it | :03:18. | :03:20. | |
hard to hold that that was reasonable. Therefore the eight | :03:21. | :03:28. | |
months were unlawful. The issue is not what he has done, the issue in | :03:29. | :03:34. | |
these proceedings are very much related to his immigration position, | :03:35. | :03:40. | |
not his colonel conviction. Jumaa Kater Saleh is now living in the | :03:41. | :03:42. | |
Midlands. Simon joins us from Dartford. What | :03:43. | :03:46. | |
response has there been from the Home Office? The Home Office came in | :03:47. | :03:54. | |
for scathing criticism. It told us it was disappointed by this case and | :03:55. | :03:58. | |
it may appeal. But it insisted that it is right to try to seek to remove | :03:59. | :04:02. | |
those from the country who have scant regard for our law. It is also | :04:03. | :04:07. | |
right to hold in detention criminals who are a danger to the public. If | :04:08. | :04:12. | |
an appeal does not take place or is not successful, the two size will | :04:13. | :04:19. | |
have to try and thrash out how much compensation Jumaa Kater Saleh will | :04:20. | :04:22. | |
get. It could be a substantial amount on top of the amount spent by | :04:23. | :04:28. | |
the taxpayer on this case. There's chaos on the rails tonight | :04:29. | :04:31. | |
for commuters trying to get home to Kent and Sussex. All services from | :04:32. | :04:34. | |
London Charing Cross, Waterloo East, London Bridge and Cannon Street have | :04:35. | :04:37. | |
been cancelled, after a fire caused a signal failure, leading to major | :04:38. | :04:40. | |
disruption during the evening rush hour. | :04:41. | :04:46. | |
I just want to get home. I have been up since 7am. I haven't had | :04:47. | :04:54. | |
anything, someone just told me to get off the platform. I den had to | :04:55. | :04:59. | |
get off the platform. Probably about two hours. We have kids at home and | :05:00. | :05:06. | |
somebody is leaving so we need to get home. It is clearly causing a | :05:07. | :05:11. | |
major problem. Jon Hunt's live for us at Tunbridge | :05:12. | :05:17. | |
Wells Station ` what's the latest? The latest is that southeastern are | :05:18. | :05:22. | |
Listing 26 disruptions and cancellations. Passengers using | :05:23. | :05:27. | |
Southern trains and First Capital Connect have been warned to expect | :05:28. | :05:32. | |
more cancellations of up to 1.5 hours. All the signalling at London | :05:33. | :05:37. | |
Bridge failed at around 5pm. Engineers are working to restore it. | :05:38. | :05:41. | |
But it means that there are no trains are running through the | :05:42. | :05:46. | |
London Bridge area at all. Journeys between Sevenoaks and London have | :05:47. | :05:50. | |
been suspended. Mainline services between Ashford and London are being | :05:51. | :05:54. | |
diverted to and from London Victoria. A similar picture for | :05:55. | :05:58. | |
services between Hastings and London. Tunbridge Wells services are | :05:59. | :06:08. | |
terminating at Tunbridge. Some passengers have taken it upon | :06:09. | :06:12. | |
themselves to vacate the trains and walk along the tracks. The train | :06:13. | :06:16. | |
companies say this is dangerous and will delay the restoration of | :06:17. | :06:21. | |
services. For updated travel information | :06:22. | :06:25. | |
throughout the evening, tune into our websites or radio stations. | :06:26. | :06:38. | |
In a moment, the ?9 million pay`out for a man who suffered catastrophic | :06:39. | :06:43. | |
injuries in a car crash. The daughter of an elderly woman who | :06:44. | :06:47. | |
died at the Orchid View Care Home in West Sussex says she's received | :06:48. | :06:50. | |
anonymous online abuse from people claiming she's to blame for her | :06:51. | :06:53. | |
mother's death. Poor care at the Copthorne home contributed to the | :06:54. | :06:56. | |
deaths of five residents ` including 77`year`old Jean Halfpenny. Her | :06:57. | :07:00. | |
daughter Linzi Collings says the accusations that she's trying to | :07:01. | :07:03. | |
profit from the situation are disgusting ` and have added to her | :07:04. | :07:07. | |
distress. Rebecca Williams has this exclusive report. | :07:08. | :07:15. | |
Neglected and mistreated, Jean Halfpenny died as a result of the | :07:16. | :07:19. | |
care she received at Orchid View care home nursing home. But her | :07:20. | :07:24. | |
daughter Annie Lowe says that she has been targeted by online trolls. | :07:25. | :07:38. | |
`` Linzi Collings. It is ignorant because until you are in that | :07:39. | :07:42. | |
situation, you cannot know what you would do. It just makes you angry, | :07:43. | :07:49. | |
really, that people have felt that they can comment on something they | :07:50. | :07:54. | |
know nothing about. It was last month that a coroner ruled that five | :07:55. | :07:58. | |
elderly residents died as a result of the care that they received. | :07:59. | :08:04. | |
Orchid View care home nursing home has now reopened with a new name and | :08:05. | :08:09. | |
under new management. But here, a pattern of neglect unfolded. | :08:10. | :08:15. | |
Patients were left on their own and sometimes had faeces on their hands. | :08:16. | :08:20. | |
Several pensioners were repeatedly given the wrong medication. It's | :08:21. | :08:26. | |
completely took over every minute of our lives for a year. So, to have | :08:27. | :08:31. | |
someone making a very good comment like that is not helpful. Cases of | :08:32. | :08:40. | |
Internet abuse have Rhys simply `` have recently risen. This woman | :08:41. | :08:49. | |
became a target of hate mail for posting messages of support for an X | :08:50. | :08:53. | |
factor star. You are always going to get a minority of people who will | :08:54. | :08:57. | |
behave like this because it is anonymous, they can hide behind | :08:58. | :09:04. | |
their commuting `` computer screens. Linzi Collings says the run`up to | :09:05. | :09:07. | |
Christmas is a difficult time since her mother 's died and says that the | :09:08. | :09:13. | |
abuse is making it harder. Detectives investigating the murder | :09:14. | :09:17. | |
of a father of two in Folkestone are appealing for information from | :09:18. | :09:20. | |
anyone who knew the victim, or saw him in the week before he died. Tim | :09:21. | :09:24. | |
Clayton was seriously injured in the early hours of Saturday the 9th of | :09:25. | :09:27. | |
November and died the following day. Kent Police want to speak to a | :09:28. | :09:31. | |
person seen on CCTV walking near a car park where Mr Clayton was | :09:32. | :09:33. | |
sleeping. Gatwick Airport has reported a rise | :09:34. | :09:36. | |
in passenger numbers and an increase in profits. Nearly 21 million people | :09:37. | :09:40. | |
used the Sussex airport between April and September, up 4.4% on the | :09:41. | :09:46. | |
same period last year. Meanwhile pre`tax profits have jumped nearly | :09:47. | :09:54. | |
19% to more than ?127 million. The Lewes MP and minister | :09:55. | :09:57. | |
responsible for drugs policy ` Norman Baker ` says he wants to send | :09:58. | :10:00. | |
the message that the trade in so`called "legal highs" is not | :10:01. | :10:04. | |
acceptable. He was asked to take action after a student in Kent | :10:05. | :10:07. | |
nearly died when he bought a product from a shop that sells legal highs | :10:08. | :10:10. | |
in Canterbury. Giving evidence to the Home Affairs Select Committee | :10:11. | :10:13. | |
for the first time since his promotion, Mr Baker said he's bought | :10:14. | :10:16. | |
in a programme of enforcement actions this week which are already | :10:17. | :10:23. | |
seeing results. We are asking the police, trading standards and others | :10:24. | :10:28. | |
to help of enforcement action. They have been arrested in Cumbria this | :10:29. | :10:34. | |
week and two in Kent yesterday. A man who was left brain damaged and | :10:35. | :10:38. | |
unable to walk after being hit by a car has won a ?9.1 million | :10:39. | :10:41. | |
compensation pay`out. James Sedge was 21 when he was run over in | :10:42. | :10:45. | |
Sheerness in 2006. His family say they're delighted that his future | :10:46. | :10:48. | |
care can now be funded, after the seven`year legal battle. Jane | :10:49. | :11:00. | |
Witherspoon reports. Ready, and stand. It is a massive | :11:01. | :11:07. | |
achievement. Standing on his own two feet. He was mown down in Chennai | :11:08. | :11:12. | |
side street in 2006. There was a knock on the door. `` in sheerness | :11:13. | :11:22. | |
high Street. It was a massive shock. Once he left the unit, he went to a | :11:23. | :11:26. | |
care home. They said that this was it for him now. I was left with a | :11:27. | :11:35. | |
disabled son that I did know what to do with! Hello, James! What followed | :11:36. | :11:44. | |
was a seven`year high court legal battle to get him out of the care | :11:45. | :11:49. | |
home. The fight paid off and James was awarded a ?9.1 million pay`out. | :11:50. | :11:55. | |
It is the first time that we know of is that the mental capacity act was | :11:56. | :12:04. | |
used to get the evidence for the interim pay`out. It provided the | :12:05. | :12:07. | |
extra piece of evidence which allowed us to get James into the | :12:08. | :12:13. | |
community. But according to the Association of the insurers, James' | :12:14. | :12:20. | |
case has not set a precedent. A pay`out of this size is unlikely to | :12:21. | :12:25. | |
have a knock`on effect on premiums. Insurers are paying out billions of | :12:26. | :12:30. | |
pounds every year. They do budget for large`scale losses of this | :12:31. | :12:35. | |
nature. What does this money mean for James and what will it provide | :12:36. | :12:39. | |
for him? It will provide the same sort of care he is having now. He | :12:40. | :12:47. | |
will have some sort of normality. Obviously, it will never be the | :12:48. | :12:52. | |
same, but this is as good as it gets, you know, so I can't ask for | :12:53. | :12:59. | |
any more. With round`the`clock care, each day brings James Moore of his | :13:00. | :13:09. | |
own independence. It Kent teenager killed in a car | :13:10. | :13:13. | |
crash in Suffolk has been named as 18`year`old Johnny Cash, from | :13:14. | :13:17. | |
Ashford. He died on Saturday night after the car he was in hit the wall | :13:18. | :13:22. | |
of a pub near Ipswich. In 19`year`old man was also killed and | :13:23. | :13:26. | |
four other people are in hospital. Students in the Dover area could get | :13:27. | :13:31. | |
help with the cost of their university fees with the Port of | :13:32. | :13:33. | |
Dover launching a bursary scheme up to the value of ?3000 a year. Those | :13:34. | :13:39. | |
taking it up would have to study a degree compatible with working for | :13:40. | :13:44. | |
the port. A man accused of murdering his | :13:45. | :13:47. | |
elderly companion and leaving his body to rot in a flat in Brighton | :13:48. | :13:52. | |
took to the witness box to defend himself today. Ricardo Pisano denies | :13:53. | :13:56. | |
murder saying that Michael Polding killed himself and that is whole | :13:57. | :13:59. | |
world stop and he found him hanging from a banister in the home they | :14:00. | :14:02. | |
shared. He stands attacks of accusing the | :14:03. | :14:07. | |
elderly man he lived with with a blunt instrument and then fleeing | :14:08. | :14:12. | |
the scene. But tonight, Ricardo Pisano talked about is affection for | :14:13. | :14:16. | |
the older man. He said that he had been paid first but later on they | :14:17. | :14:19. | |
moved in together as friends. He said that he found Michael Polding | :14:20. | :14:26. | |
Pozner body hanging from a belt. Suicide, he said, not murder. The | :14:27. | :14:32. | |
barrister asked him, what did you think when you discovered the body? | :14:33. | :14:37. | |
I tried CPR, I've said a prayer for him. Michael Polding had taken | :14:38. | :14:46. | |
himself to the local AMD department. The court heard that when the | :14:47. | :14:49. | |
defendant went to the AMD department to pick him up, Michael Polding | :14:50. | :14:59. | |
pointed to him and said to a nurse, that man beats me up. He then said | :15:00. | :15:02. | |
that he had said that because he was embarrassed to admit that he had | :15:03. | :15:07. | |
fallen over drunk in a supermarket. Ricardo Pisano says that he had | :15:08. | :15:13. | |
never hit his partner. Tomorrow, he will answer prosecution questions. | :15:14. | :15:21. | |
This is our top story. The father of a girl abused by a sex offender says | :15:22. | :15:28. | |
that he is outraged that he is entitled to compensation because his | :15:29. | :15:31. | |
human rights have been breached. Jumaa Kater Saleh was held for too | :15:32. | :15:37. | |
long while unsuccessful attempts were made to deport him. | :15:38. | :15:44. | |
Also in tonight's programme, how a losing bet paid off for the Sussex | :15:45. | :15:50. | |
creator of these cuff links. And eight cold bright day tomorrow, | :15:51. | :15:57. | |
cloudier and then getting colder again by Friday. | :15:58. | :16:05. | |
I An An award winning Kent company is | :16:06. | :16:05. | |
Clear, crisp and cold. It will be milder tomorrow, then really cold on | :16:06. | :25:02. | |
Friday. Mostly staying dry. Temperatures creeping up a degree or | :25:03. | :25:08. | |
two. Temperatures around nine or 10 degrees on Wednesday and Thursday. | :25:09. | :25:14. | |
Getting cold again on Friday. Clear skies today, plenty of sunshine. | :25:15. | :25:18. | |
Fairly light winds. But they were from a northerly direction such | :25:19. | :25:22. | |
ambitious struggle to get above six or seven degrees. Quite a raw | :25:23. | :25:27. | |
feeling day. As we go through tonight, temperatures will be | :25:28. | :25:33. | |
tumbling. Mostly we will save frost free. There is a warm front | :25:34. | :25:39. | |
eventually. Temperatures get close to freezing initially tonight then | :25:40. | :25:44. | |
there is more cloud cover around. Some light, patchy rain and drizzle. | :25:45. | :25:51. | |

and misty start tomorrow. It will not be worn tomorrow but slightly | :25:57. | :26:00. | |
milder. Still an area of high pressure around. And improving | :26:01. | :26:07. | |
picture, once the Weatherford clears out of the way. It is a bit of | :26:08. | :26:11. | |
brightness. `` once the weather front clears. Look at the | :26:12. | :26:17. | |
temperatures as we go through tomorrow night. They will only drop | :26:18. | :26:21. | |
a degree or two. Cloud cover around. So very mild indeed as we | :26:22. | :26:28. | |
start the day on Thursday. Mostly settled, still that area of high | :26:29. | :26:34. | |
pressure. A good deal of cloud cover. That area of high pressure | :26:35. | :26:37. | |
pulls away westwards and as we head into Friday, things looking cooler. | :26:38. | :26:45. | |
Some north`westerly winds as we go into Friday. Temperatures not too | :26:46. | :26:52. | |
bad. Strong northerly winds picking up and feeling significantly cooler. | :26:53. | :27:03. | |
Things settle down at the week end. Let's recap tonight's top stories... | :27:04. | :27:06. | |
Ministers in Scotland have been setting out their vision of an | :27:07. | :27:09. | |
independent country, with ten months to go before next year's referendum. | :27:10. | :27:13. | |
A Kent father says he's outraged that a foreign sex offender who | :27:14. | :27:16. | |
abused his daughter when she was just 13 will get compensation `` | :27:17. | :27:19. | |
because judges ruled that HIS human rights have been breached. | :27:20. | :27:25. | |
And chaos on train services tonight for commuters trying to get home to | :27:26. | :27:30. | |
Kent and Sussex. Services from London Bridge, Charing Cross, | :27:31. | :27:38. | |
Waterloo East have been disrupted. We will keep an eye on that. We will | :27:39. | :27:43. | |
have that in the 10:25pm bulletin. | :27:44. | :27:47. |
