Have the authorities in Nigeria given up, in their hunt | :00:00. | :00:14. | |
for the school girls, abducted by Boko Haram. | :00:15. | :00:18. | |
The BBC travels to Chibok - and hears the agony | :00:19. | :00:20. | |
In China - a gay couple lose their fight to be | :00:21. | :00:26. | |

And a robotic submarine searching for signs of Scotland's Loch Ness | :00:34. | :00:40. | |

Hello and welcome - I'm Geeta Guru-Murthy. | :00:59. | :01:00. | |
The authorities in Nigeria promise they are still looking - | :01:01. | :01:04. | |
The reality though, is that two years after they disappeared, | :01:05. | :01:10. | |
they are no nearer finding the 200 schoolgirls kidnapped | :01:11. | :01:13. | |
The global condemnation and star-studded campaign to free | :01:14. | :01:21. | |
As did a major army offensive against the Islamist group - | :01:22. | :01:25. | |
The only constant in the story - is the agony endured | :01:26. | :01:29. | |
She was such a hard-working girl, she loved jokes. | :01:30. | :01:37. | |
She begged me to buy her a sewing machine. | :01:38. | :01:42. | |
TRANSLATION: Before going to school she was | :01:43. | :01:46. | |
These were the last moments I had with her. | :01:47. | :02:00. | |
I pray that my daughter will come back alive, but | :02:01. | :02:03. | |
if not, I hope that her soul rests in peace. | :02:04. | :02:07. | |
The girls were taken from Chibok on the night of 14th of April 2014. | :02:08. | :02:11. | |
Over the 24 months since they've been abducted, there've been many | :02:12. | :02:14. | |
claims of the Chibok girls being seen. | :02:15. | :02:18. | |
Initially villagers living in the Sambisa Forest said they saw | :02:19. | :02:20. | |
the children being taken into neighbouring Chad and Cameroon. | :02:21. | :02:25. | |
In May of 2014 though, the governor of Borno state | :02:26. | :02:28. | |
in Nigeria said he had seen the girls in Nigeria, | :02:29. | :02:30. | |
About a year on, in April 2015, a woman in the village of Gwoza | :02:31. | :02:36. | |
in north-eastern Nigeria told the BBC she had seen 50 | :02:37. | :02:38. | |
And minister in and says they still have no idea where the girls are. We | :02:39. | :02:56. | |
don't, I think we've had lots of information and many leads and | :02:57. | :03:00. | |
everyone of them is followed through, but of today, sadly, we | :03:01. | :03:04. | |
don't have good news, which would have been wonderful. We continue | :03:05. | :03:09. | |
with the strategy we've had since we came in, which is to deploy all of | :03:10. | :03:15. | |
the collaborations and security that we have the look across the border | :03:16. | :03:16. | |
within the country. The anniversary coincides | :03:17. | :03:17. | |
with an event in Washington hosted by the World Bank where global | :03:18. | :03:19. | |
leaders are pushing for improvements Michelle Obama, the First Lady | :03:20. | :03:22. | |
of the United States, Why do we still talk | :03:23. | :03:25. | |
and value girls simply for their bodies instead | :03:26. | :03:33. | |
of better investment for families | :03:34. | :03:34. | |
to marry off their teenage daughters And finally, why would | :03:35. | :03:50. | |
grown men storm a school bus and shoot a 15-year-old | :03:51. | :03:59. | |
girl in the head just for speaking Why, two years ago, | :04:00. | :04:02. | |
would terrorists be so threatened by the prospect | :04:03. | :04:07. | |
of girls going to school that they would break into dormitory in | :04:08. | :04:11. | |
the middle of the night and kidnap I think we can all agree | :04:12. | :04:14. | |
that the answers to these questions aren't | :04:15. | :04:22. | |
just about resources. Because our global failure | :04:23. | :04:29. | |
to educate adolescent girls isn't just about whether we have | :04:30. | :04:32. | |
adequate funding or sufficient It's also about whether we truly | :04:33. | :04:35. | |
believe that girls are worth educating | :04:36. | :04:43. | |
in the first place. Amit Dar is the Director | :04:44. | :04:48. | |
of Education at the World Bank, A Chinese court has | :04:49. | :04:54. | |
ruled against a gay man, In what is reported to be China's | :04:55. | :04:56. | |
first same-sex marriage case, a 27-year-old has failed | :04:57. | :05:01. | |
in his attempt to force his local authority to issue | :05:02. | :05:03. | |

correspondent John Sudworth. Sun Wenlin, an internet company | :05:06. | :05:11. | |
employee and Hu Mingliang, a security guard, have lost a legal | :05:12. | :05:14. | |
argument, but they are still Their case has generated widespread | :05:15. | :05:18. | |
publicity and a few hundred supporters were there to celebrate | :05:19. | :05:25. | |
the fact that even getting the court to hear the case is a sign that | :05:26. | :05:28. | |
attitudes in China might be Mr Sun has attempted to argue | :05:29. | :05:32. | |
there is nothing in Chinese law that specifically prohibits | :05:33. | :05:38. | |
same-sex couples from marrying. TRANSLATION: Our country has never | :05:39. | :05:45. | |
had any written legal term that forbids the marriage | :05:46. | :05:48. | |
between people of the same sex. Nonetheless, the court ruled | :05:49. | :05:52. | |
in favour of the local Government in the city | :05:53. | :05:58. | |
of Changsha that had refused to issue | :05:59. | :06:00. | |

we will finally realise Relaxing at home before | :06:14. | :06:17. | |
the case, Mr Sun and Mr Hu had already decided | :06:18. | :06:23. | |
they would appeal if the ruling TRANSLATION: We don't really need | :06:24. | :06:25. | |
a marriage to prove our love, but we just want to | :06:26. | :06:36. | |
be treated equally. They may face a long legal fight, | :06:37. | :06:40. | |
but in raising the issue and placing it firmly onto the public | :06:41. | :06:43. | |
agenda, supporters say they are already changing minds | :06:44. | :06:46. | |
in one important place - Now a look at some of | :06:47. | :06:49. | |
the day's other news. Spanish police have arrested a man | :06:50. | :07:00. | |
suspected of supplying arms to Paris gunman Amedy Coulibaly, | :07:01. | :07:03. | |
who murdered four people at a kosher Antoine Denive, 27, was detained | :07:04. | :07:07. | |
in a joint Franco-Spanish raid on a house in Malaga, | :07:08. | :07:14. | |
Madrid authorities say. The Frenchman is suspected | :07:15. | :07:17. | |
of fleeing France weeks after the 9th of January supermarket | :07:18. | :07:19. | |
siege. A senior conservative politician | :07:20. | :07:23. | |
in Germany has called for mosques to use the German language | :07:24. | :07:27. | |
and said their foreign financing from countries such as Turkey | :07:28. | :07:30. | |
and Saudi Arabia must end. The general secretary of the CSU - | :07:31. | :07:34. | |
Christian Socialist Party - said political Islam was undermining | :07:35. | :07:38. | |
integration and Europe should Two former coalition partners | :07:39. | :07:42. | |
of Brazil's President Dilma Rousseff say they will vote for her | :07:43. | :07:48. | |
impeachment on Sunday, over claims she manipulated | :07:49. | :07:52. | |
government accounts. The Progressive Party, | :07:53. | :07:55. | |
which quit the coalition on Tuesday, says most of its 47 MPs would vote | :07:56. | :07:57. | |
for the action. President Rousseff says her | :07:58. | :08:00. | |
opponents are plotting a "coup". The world's biggest | :08:01. | :08:07. | |
publicly listed coal firm - the American giant Peabody - | :08:08. | :08:13. | |
has filed for bankruptcy protection. Analysts say Peabody didn't foresee | :08:14. | :08:15. | |
the boom in shale gas, and under-estimated public concern | :08:16. | :08:17. | |
about climate change It's the 50th US coal firm to file | :08:18. | :08:21. | |
for bankruptcy in Here's our Environment Analyst Roger | :08:22. | :08:27. | |
Harrabin. The fuel that drove | :08:28. | :08:32. | |
the Industrial Revolution, brought millions out of poverty, | :08:33. | :08:35. | |
but it is the dirtiest fossil fuel, and with fears about climate change | :08:36. | :08:40. | |
and Stocks in coal firms are down nearly | :08:41. | :08:43. | |
80% in just eight years. Peabody is the grand | :08:44. | :08:50. | |
old man of American coal, Peabody is the biggest private coal | :08:51. | :08:52. | |
firm in the world, but it lobbied against climate science and it | :08:53. | :09:08. | |
didn't foresee the glut in the cleaner fuel, gas, it has dried up | :09:09. | :09:11. | |
and Peabody began to sink. We have a lot of sympathy | :09:12. | :09:15. | |
for the 8000 workers potentially made redundant, | :09:16. | :09:20. | |
but not They are on the wrong | :09:21. | :09:21. | |
side, officially backing climate denial even | :09:22. | :09:26. | |
last year and as coal from renewables and gas, | :09:27. | :09:29. | |
the market has disappeared. Peabody hoped China would provide | :09:30. | :09:32. | |
new markets, but that As China tackles climate | :09:33. | :09:35. | |
and air pollution, it is shutting 4300 coal mines and cutting | :09:36. | :09:39. | |
annual output by 700 million tonnes. Cheap renewables are | :09:40. | :09:47. | |
also challenging coal - solar power is now cheaper than coal | :09:48. | :09:50. | |
in sunny countries. And in Europe, one quarter | :09:51. | :09:54. | |
of nations are banning coal for electricity because of | :09:55. | :09:56. | |
damage to the climate. The headquarters of the World Coal | :09:57. | :09:59. | |
Association overlook one of London's most | :10:00. | :10:03. | |
prestigious streets. They are not ready to | :10:04. | :10:06. | |
give up the ghost just Coal is playing a big | :10:07. | :10:09. | |
role in the world's energy mix today, it | :10:10. | :10:14. | |
is 41% of the word's electricity and | :10:15. | :10:16. | |
70% of the world's steel and 90% of It is a key ingredients | :10:17. | :10:19. | |
to the world's energy mix and will be | :10:20. | :10:24. | |
for the foreseeable future. This was to be the future of coal, | :10:25. | :10:27. | |
technology to capture carbon emissions and and bury them, | :10:28. | :10:30. | |
but the UK and US governments pulled The coal industry is not | :10:31. | :10:33. | |
dead yet, but its dominance of world energy | :10:34. | :10:39. | |
is on the way out. Security forces in Jordan have shut | :10:40. | :10:47. | |
the headquarters of the main opposition movement, | :10:48. | :10:50. | |
the Islamist Muslim Brotherhood. Officials from the group | :10:51. | :10:52. | |
saus that the building, in the capital Amman was sealed | :10:53. | :10:56. | |
on the city governor's orders and that no reason was given | :10:57. | :10:59. | |
for the closure. David Schenker is the director | :11:00. | :11:03. | |
of the Program on Arab Politics He joins us from our | :11:04. | :11:06. | |
studio in Washington. Thank you for coming in. What is | :11:07. | :11:19. | |
behind disclosure? Earlier this year the Government declared the Muslim | :11:20. | :11:22. | |
Brotherhood in illegal in Jordan, saying they were not licensed | :11:23. | :11:27. | |
properly and had been be hauled into a foreign individual to the supreme | :11:28. | :11:34. | |
guide optimism about road from Egypt. They closed it and made it | :11:35. | :11:41. | |
illegal and turned over the group's assets to another Muslim Brotherhood | :11:42. | :11:43. | |
organisation that is more amenable to the Government. How worried are | :11:44. | :11:50. | |
governments like those of Jordan now about the Muslim Brotherhood? Of | :11:51. | :11:54. | |
course, it had had support in the past. The brotherhood does have | :11:55. | :11:58. | |
support, residual support. There is no doubt about that. The problem for | :11:59. | :12:06. | |
Jordan is a have about 1.4 million Syrians and close to 50 Jordanians | :12:07. | :12:09. | |
have died in combat fighting in Syria, they are worried about | :12:10. | :12:14. | |
radicalisation, so they want to move the mouse and brotherhood -- Muslim | :12:15. | :12:20. | |
Brotherhood to a more moderate place and did that by creating alternative | :12:21. | :12:25. | |
organisations at home. This is a problem of encountering a violent | :12:26. | :12:29. | |
and -- extremism and take it seriously and want to deal a blow to | :12:30. | :12:32. | |
the brotherhood which was very amendable to Hamas in Palestine for | :12:33. | :12:39. | |
this. In terms of the threat, of course, some will say the | :12:40. | :12:43. | |
governments have said this, Saudi accused very much of feeding these | :12:44. | :12:48. | |
ideologies and now worried about a hydra headed monster they cannot | :12:49. | :12:52. | |
control. How much of a worry is it for Jordan? Radicalism is a huge | :12:53. | :13:00. | |
threat, particularly with the war in Syria going into its 50 year and | :13:01. | :13:04. | |
boring on that, -- country, poor economics in Jordan and some support | :13:05. | :13:07. | |
for the rebellion against Assad. More than that, this is a country | :13:08. | :13:13. | |
that is very immoderate and has a moderate mate regime and they view | :13:14. | :13:19. | |
the brotherhood as not helping the problem here. The real concern is | :13:20. | :13:24. | |
whether by attacking this organisation and putting all of this | :13:25. | :13:27. | |
pressure right now that the people that are supporting the brotherhood | :13:28. | :13:31. | |
will go underground and become more radical, that is the open question. | :13:32. | :13:35. | |
And making it illegal is one thing, where is its funding, for example, | :13:36. | :13:42. | |
coming from now? Well, this is another big question, they have | :13:43. | :13:46. | |
domestic support and charitable organisations, they all property and | :13:47. | :13:49. | |
the organisation has been in existence for 70 years but by making | :13:50. | :13:54. | |
it illegal the Government, there had been a success brotherhood | :13:55. | :13:57. | |
organisation, they have been split between what they called the Hawks | :13:58. | :14:00. | |
and the doves, the Government allowed the doves to essentially | :14:01. | :14:05. | |
found a new Rizla brotherhood and transferred all of the assets, | :14:06. | :14:10. | |
probably tens of millions of dollars to the new Rizla brotherhood | :14:11. | :14:15. | |
organisation. Is this the only source of radicalisation aspires the | :14:16. | :14:23. | |
Government see it in Jordan? No, they view the brotherhood as one | :14:24. | :14:28. | |
component, particularly this strain, the people who are more amenable to | :14:29. | :14:32. | |
Hamas and the Palestinian issue in Jordan, they view them as part of | :14:33. | :14:37. | |
radicalisation but the really big problem is the war in Syria and the | :14:38. | :14:41. | |
people that have gone and joint minister or Isis in Syria and have | :14:42. | :14:48. | |
returned home, the online radicalisation and the regional | :14:49. | :14:51. | |
trend toward Sol offers. There is a rather thin line between solitary | :14:52. | :14:55. | |
and solitary jihadi. That is the main concern rather than the Muslim | :14:56. | :15:01. | |
Brotherhood. This is part of an overall new counter radicalisation | :15:02. | :15:03. | |
strategy by the Government of Jordan. Thank you. | :15:04. | :15:06. | |
As the political fallout from the Panama Papers scandal | :15:07. | :15:08. | |
continues, the anti-corruption organisation Global Witness has said | :15:09. | :15:12. | |
today that an area more than three times the size of Greater London | :15:13. | :15:15. | |
is owned by secret companies in offshore tax havens. | :15:16. | :15:20. | |
The group claims high-end properties in London are being used | :15:21. | :15:24. | |
by corrupt politicians, drug smugglers and criminals | :15:25. | :15:27. | |
All made possible because the offshore companies | :15:28. | :15:34. | |
are not required to reveal who the owners are. | :15:35. | :15:36. | |
Our correspondent Richard Galpin has been on a tour of | :15:37. | :15:38. | |
All aboard for a bus tour like no other in Britain. | :15:39. | :15:44. | |
It's early morning in central London, and journalists | :15:45. | :15:47. | |
from around the world are being taken by anti-corruption campaigners | :15:48. | :15:50. | |
to see a series of multi-million pound properties bought by offshore | :15:51. | :15:52. | |
We want to shine the light onto the flows from global | :15:53. | :16:02. | |
kleptocracies, Russia, Nigeria, countries in Asia and Latin | :16:03. | :16:04. | |
America, the kleptocrats steal from their countries and launder it in | :16:05. | :16:12. | |
offshore vehicles and bring it here to invest. | :16:13. | :16:18. | |
Back on the bus, the tour continues through the heart of | :16:19. | :16:21. | |
With activists giving details of specific properties whose | :16:22. | :16:25. | |
owners allegedly include Russians close to President Putin | :16:26. | :16:28. | |
It is claimed some of the purchases used dubious money. | :16:29. | :16:40. | |
And what is particularly striking is the scale of what is going on. | :16:41. | :16:45. | |
According to the campaign group Transparency International, | :16:46. | :16:48. | |
more than 36,000 properties here in London are owned by offshore | :16:49. | :16:51. | |
companies in places like the British Virgin Islands. | :16:52. | :16:55. | |
In Westminster the concentration is particularly high, | :16:56. | :16:58. | |
one in ten of the buildings here belong to those offshore companies. | :16:59. | :17:01. | |
Of course, many of those London properties will have been bought by | :17:02. | :17:04. | |
perfectly legitimate offshore companies investing in Britain. | :17:05. | :17:11. | |
But it is also alleged that London has | :17:12. | :17:13. | |
become a magnet for those with questionable cash to spend. | :17:14. | :17:16. | |
One of the reasons people come to London is | :17:17. | :17:21. | |
that there is an army of estate agents and lawyers and banks and | :17:22. | :17:27. | |
financial institutions all helping to facilitate this activity. | :17:28. | :17:30. | |
I think the time has come when we should | :17:31. | :17:33. | |
consider a sanction and a penalty on all of those advisers | :17:34. | :17:36. | |
who knowingly during their work are | :17:37. | :17:42. | |
helping money-laundering here into the UK. | :17:43. | :17:43. | |
On the bus the activists hope the current focus on offshore | :17:44. | :17:46. | |
companies will lead to action by the Government | :17:47. | :17:48. | |
to ensure the names of | :17:49. | :17:49. | |
the companies' owners are made fully public. | :17:50. | :17:56. | |
They say that could help prevent billions of | :17:57. | :17:58. | |
pounds being laundered in this country. | :17:59. | :18:06. | |
The Bulgarian government has promised to crack down on vigilante | :18:07. | :18:09. | |
groups who try to detain people they suspect of entering | :18:10. | :18:11. | |
Online video footage of three suspected Afghan men being roughly | :18:12. | :18:16. | |
tied up has provoked anger in Bulgaria. | :18:17. | :18:20. | |
The Bulgarian interior minister has appealed to the public not | :18:21. | :18:22. | |
The authorities had initially welcomed the creation of civilian | :18:23. | :18:28. | |
volunteer groups along Bulgaria's border with Turkey. | :18:29. | :18:33. | |
A paralysed man has regained control of his hand after being fitted | :18:34. | :18:36. | |
The man's thoughts are interpreted by a computer which sends impulses | :18:37. | :18:41. | |
Scientists in the United States say the pioneering technology | :18:42. | :18:48. | |
could eventually help many other patients. | :18:49. | :18:49. | |
Our medical correspondent Fergus Walsh reports. | :18:50. | :18:53. | |
Ian Burkhart is playing a guitar video game. | :18:54. | :18:57. | |
Using the power of thought, is paralysed fingers can | :18:58. | :19:01. | |
move as a result of, hands from his brain | :19:02. | :19:07. | |
said into a computer, which | :19:08. | :19:09. | |
then stimulates his muscles via these sensors on his arm. | :19:10. | :19:18. | |
Ian was paralysed below the elbow in a | :19:19. | :19:21. | |
diving accident six years ago, but is slowly relearning to use his | :19:22. | :19:23. | |
Now it's just something that's so fluid, kind of like it was | :19:24. | :19:27. | |
before I had my injury where I just think about what I want to do and | :19:28. | :19:31. | |
The key to this technology is a tiny computer chip | :19:32. | :19:35. | |
which surgeons implanted on the area of the brain motor cortex which | :19:36. | :19:38. | |
When he thinks about moving his fingers and hand, | :19:39. | :19:45. | |
those messages can't travel down his injured | :19:46. | :19:47. | |
spinal-cord, so instead they bypass the injury. | :19:48. | :19:50. | |
The computer interprets the signals and then send | :19:51. | :19:52. | |
impulses to the sensors on his wrist. | :19:53. | :19:57. | |
Ian's movements are still slow and deliberate, but his | :19:58. | :20:01. | |
He can demonstrate practical tasks, like swiping a bank card. | :20:02. | :20:09. | |
Engineers hope he will eventually be able to | :20:10. | :20:11. | |
The biggest dream would be to get full function in my | :20:12. | :20:17. | |
You know, because that allows you to be a lot | :20:18. | :20:22. | |
more independent and not have to rely on people for simple | :20:23. | :20:25. | |
day-to-day tasks that you take for granted. | :20:26. | :20:28. | |
Several more patients are lined up to receive the device in Ohio. | :20:29. | :20:33. | |
This really provides hope, we believe, | :20:34. | :20:35. | |
for many patients in future, as this technology | :20:36. | :20:37. | |
involves and matures, to help people who have disabilities | :20:38. | :20:40. | |
from spinal-cord injury or traumatic brain injury or stroke, to allow | :20:41. | :20:47. | |
them to be more functional and more independent. | :20:48. | :20:56. | |
This technology is developing fast. Four years ago are paralysed woman | :20:57. | :21:03. | |
control a robotic arm using her thoughts. A different approach is | :21:04. | :21:08. | |
spinal repair, this paralysed patient in Poland had a cell | :21:09. | :21:14. | |
transplant and can now ride a bike. This latest research in the journal, | :21:15. | :21:20. | |
nature, is restricted to the laboratory but the Demon Hohaia what | :21:21. | :21:24. | |
the technology will eventually be wireless and allow patients greater | :21:25. | :21:25. | |

just ahead, the Indian one-horned rhinoceros - | :21:56. | :22:04. | |
just one of the wild creatures | :22:05. | :22:05. | |

they have the upper hand, despite the fact that the horn | :22:33. | :22:34. | |
of the Indian rhino is marketed - bogusly, of course - | :22:35. | :22:38. | |
as being more potent than that It's a continuing struggle | :22:39. | :22:42. | |

about a monster, but now, like, all the sightings | :25:11. | :25:17. | |
and all the photographs, I think So no sign of Nessie herself on this | :25:18. | :25:23. | |
