0:00:15 > 0:00:18The Government says it's doing everything it can to keep the serial

0:00:18 > 0:00:19sex attacker John Worboys in jail.

0:00:19 > 0:00:21The former black cab driver was granted parole

0:00:21 > 0:00:23after serving nine years, but victims and campaigners say

0:00:23 > 0:00:25he shouldn't be released so early.

0:00:25 > 0:00:27Every victim out there, every friend and family of victims,

0:00:27 > 0:00:29and anybody who has read about this case, will

0:00:29 > 0:00:33want to know that we are doing everything we can to make sure that

0:00:33 > 0:00:34the victims are properly protected.

0:00:34 > 0:00:36The Ukip leader, Henry Bolton, is facing calls to resign,

0:00:36 > 0:00:42after his girlfriend makes offensive remarks about Meghan Markle.

0:00:42 > 0:00:44A manhunt is under way in East Yorkshire after a suspected

0:00:44 > 0:00:47attack with a crossbow left one man dead and a woman seriously injured.

0:00:47 > 0:00:50And in the Premier League Manchester City's unbeaten run comes

0:00:50 > 0:00:56to an end in a seven-goal thriller at Liverpool.

0:01:15 > 0:01:16Good evening.

0:01:16 > 0:01:18The new Conservative Party Chairman, Brandon Lewis, has told the BBC

0:01:18 > 0:01:23the Government is doing everything it can to ensure the

0:01:23 > 0:01:25serial sex offender John Worboys stays in prison.

0:01:25 > 0:01:28The former black cab driver was jailed in 2009 for drugging

0:01:28 > 0:01:30and sexually assaulting 12 women, but police believe he may

0:01:30 > 0:01:32have committed more than a hundred attacks.

0:01:32 > 0:01:34The Government is considering seeking judicial review

0:01:34 > 0:01:37into the Parole Board's decision to release him.

0:01:37 > 0:01:44Here's our home affairs correspondent, Danny Shaw.

0:01:44 > 0:01:47He is known as the black cab rapist.

0:01:47 > 0:01:49John Worboys is believed to have drugged and sexually assaulted

0:01:49 > 0:01:52more than 100 women.

0:01:52 > 0:01:55Yet the parole board has decided that after ten years in custody,

0:01:55 > 0:01:57it is safe for him to be released,

0:01:57 > 0:02:00and he is due out by the end of the month.

0:02:00 > 0:02:02The Government wants to stop that happening and is looking

0:02:02 > 0:02:05at the possibility of legal action.

0:02:05 > 0:02:08Anybody out there will appreciate just how awful this must

0:02:08 > 0:02:10be for victims, to see what is happening.

0:02:10 > 0:02:13To think about somebody like that being out on the streets.

0:02:13 > 0:02:16The Secretary of State for Justice will be doing everything he can

0:02:16 > 0:02:20to make sure this man stays behind bars.

0:02:20 > 0:02:28The Justice Secretary has been in the post less than one week.

0:02:34 > 0:02:37He wants to know if it's plausible to contest the release decision in

0:02:37 > 0:02:43the courts, and if there is a good chance of success. Lawyers for some

0:02:43 > 0:02:50of the victims are also considering legal action.We have been looking

0:02:50 > 0:02:54into legal challenge of the decision by the parole board. We can also

0:02:54 > 0:02:58look at the rules which prohibit any publication of the reasons for the

0:02:58 > 0:03:01decision, something that the Secretary of State content of

0:03:01 > 0:03:06because they are his rules.It would be highly unusual for the Government

0:03:06 > 0:03:10to launch a legal challenge against the parole board, an organisation it

0:03:10 > 0:03:14is responsible for. And if the case ends up here at the High Court,

0:03:14 > 0:03:19there's no guarantee of success. Would it be difficult? That depends

0:03:19 > 0:03:23on the quality of the decision-making. If this was a bad

0:03:23 > 0:03:26decision, one which no reasonable decision maker could have reached,

0:03:26 > 0:03:30or for some reason it failed to follow the procedures, for example,

0:03:30 > 0:03:34it has been said that the victims, or some of them, weren't consulted,

0:03:34 > 0:03:40it is quite possible the decision was unlawful. It is so unusual is

0:03:40 > 0:03:43that it's not usually the Secretary of State for Justice making those

0:03:43 > 0:03:50arguments.In the meantime, preparations are continuing for John

0:03:50 > 0:03:56Worboys' release. Some are concerned that the serial sex offender will

0:03:56 > 0:04:05try to track them down.

0:04:05 > 0:04:09Ukip leader Henry Bolton is under pressure to resign after his

0:04:09 > 0:04:15girlfriend was suspended for making offensive remarks about Meghan

0:04:15 > 0:04:19Markle. The leader hasn't made any comment. Here's our political

0:04:19 > 0:04:24correspondent, Alex Forsyth. When Henry Bolton took over as Ukip

0:04:24 > 0:04:29leader, he promised a new direction. We as a party are a party of

0:04:29 > 0:04:33leaders.Just four months into the job, there are already questions

0:04:33 > 0:04:40over his future. It relates to his relationship with this woman - Jo

0:04:40 > 0:04:44Marni. The mail on Sunday revealed text messages she sent in which he

0:04:44 > 0:04:48said Meghan Markle had a tiny brain and would taint the Royal family.

0:04:48 > 0:04:54And she called black people ugly. In a statement, she reportedly said her

0:04:54 > 0:04:59comments were unnecessary, reckless and overly exaggerated for effect,

0:04:59 > 0:05:02and offered her sincere and deepest apologies to anyone she had hurt,

0:05:02 > 0:05:05and for the distress and embarrassment caused to family,

0:05:05 > 0:05:10friends and the party. She has been suspended, and some Ukip members

0:05:10 > 0:05:13think their leader should quit.I don't want to talk about his

0:05:13 > 0:05:17personal life. It's entirely up to him. But it is impacting on

0:05:17 > 0:05:21activists now, and they are working down hard, and it's not fair on them

0:05:21 > 0:05:25and the rest of us. Henry, do the right thing, the honourable thing,

0:05:25 > 0:05:30stand aside and let us get on with business.So far, no official

0:05:30 > 0:05:34comment from Henry Bolton, but senior figures say he has some tough

0:05:34 > 0:05:38choices.He is increasingly in a position where he has some difficult

0:05:38 > 0:05:43decisions to make. He knows that. He and I have spoken recently over the

0:05:43 > 0:05:52weekend, as recently as this morning. I know he's

0:05:52 > 0:05:53morning. I know he's focused on those decisions today and he intends

0:05:53 > 0:05:56to make those decisions today. I'm sure whatever he does will be in the

0:05:56 > 0:05:59best interests of the party.After riding high following the Brexit

0:05:59 > 0:06:03referendum, Ukip is again facing turmoil. Even Nigel Farage said

0:06:03 > 0:06:06tonight he wouldn't consider returning as leader, even for a

0:06:06 > 0:06:08second.

0:06:08 > 0:06:11Humberside Police are looking for a man they want to question

0:06:11 > 0:06:13in connection with a murder thought to have been committed

0:06:13 > 0:06:14with a crossbow.

0:06:14 > 0:06:17Shane Gilmer, who was 30, died in hospital after the attack,

0:06:17 > 0:06:19at his home in the village of Southburn on Friday.

0:06:19 > 0:06:20His pregnant girlfriend was seriously injured.

0:06:20 > 0:06:23Our North of England correspondent, Fiona Trott,

0:06:23 > 0:06:29is at Humberside Police Headquarters for us this evening.

0:06:29 > 0:06:34Fiona... The latest information we have from

0:06:34 > 0:06:38the police is that Laura Sugden and her unborn baby are in a stable

0:06:38 > 0:06:42condition in hospital this evening. We also know that a crossbow was

0:06:42 > 0:06:47found at the scene of that fatal attack. It's currently being

0:06:47 > 0:06:49examined by detectives. And Humberside Police at night confirmed

0:06:49 > 0:06:53the name of a suspect they want to speak to in connection with the

0:06:53 > 0:07:01killing. Murdered in his own home - 30-year-old Shane Gilmer died in

0:07:01 > 0:07:05hospital yesterday. His pregnant partner, Laura Sugden, survived the

0:07:05 > 0:07:09attack. This evening, an appeal by the police: They want to question a

0:07:09 > 0:07:13man in connection with the murder. We don't believe that Mr Lawrence is

0:07:13 > 0:07:21a threats to the wider public. This is an isolated incident and he was

0:07:21 > 0:07:25known to both Shane and Laura. In fact, they were neighbours. We don't

0:07:25 > 0:07:29know how he will react if challenged, however, so please don't

0:07:29 > 0:07:35approach. Just call 999 and leave it to us.56-year-old Anthony Lawrence

0:07:35 > 0:07:39is also known as Tony Howarth. He is described as white with short dark

0:07:39 > 0:07:43hair, around five feet ten, and with a large bill. Every police force

0:07:43 > 0:07:49across the UK is

0:07:50 > 0:07:52across the UK is looking out for him. Two days after this attack, the

0:07:52 > 0:07:54village is still cordoned off, detectives are still at the scene.

0:07:54 > 0:07:58There is a chord in at the other end of South Byrne. People are asked for

0:07:58 > 0:08:02their identity as they come in and out. Overnight, police dog teams and

0:08:02 > 0:08:06a helicopter were out searching for whoever was responsible for this

0:08:06 > 0:08:10attack. Villagers in this quiet corner of East Yorkshire can't

0:08:10 > 0:08:13believe what's happened. Police are asking them and anyone else with

0:08:13 > 0:08:20information to come forward. Fiona Trott, BBC News, Humberside.

0:08:20 > 0:08:22Talks to secure the future of the struggling construction giant

0:08:22 > 0:08:23Carillion are expected to continue into tomorrow.

0:08:23 > 0:08:25The company, which holds several key Government contracts,

0:08:25 > 0:08:28owes more than £900 million pounds to a number of banks.

0:08:28 > 0:08:30Ministers say they're keeping a close eye on the situation.

0:08:30 > 0:08:38Here's our business correspondent, Joe Lynam.

0:08:42 > 0:08:43Carillion is probably the biggest British company

0:08:43 > 0:08:48you have never heard of.

0:08:48 > 0:08:51If it collapsed, there is concern about who would take over at short

0:08:51 > 0:08:55notice. It is not just public services that would be affected.

0:08:55 > 0:09:02Thousands of private firms in the construction sector are also

0:09:02 > 0:09:07dependent on Carillion for subcontracted work.We cover 65% of

0:09:07 > 0:09:12steel contract work in the UK, which is worth £3 billion to the economy.

0:09:12 > 0:09:17It represents 120,000 workers. If you multiply that across all of the

0:09:17 > 0:09:21sub trades in the UK, the effect on subcontractors could be significant.

0:09:21 > 0:09:26Today there was a flurry of activity at the Cabinet Office, it self

0:09:26 > 0:09:29having a face-lift. Pulling together all the different strands of

0:09:29 > 0:09:37Government dependent on Carillion. Because Carillion carries out so

0:09:38 > 0:09:40much work for so many different arms of Government, it needs to be

0:09:40 > 0:09:43coordinated here at the Cabinet Office. What they are working on

0:09:43 > 0:09:47today is contingency plans. So, should the company collapsed - and

0:09:47 > 0:09:51it is a big should - then they are ready to continue working in schools

0:09:51 > 0:09:55and hospitals and there won't be so much interruption to services.

0:09:55 > 0:09:59Sources tell the BBC that banks would be prepared to show more

0:09:59 > 0:10:03patience towards Carillion if the Government supports the company as

0:10:03 > 0:10:07well. But a public bailouts of a private business could be

0:10:07 > 0:10:11politically toxic. Joe Lynam, BBC News.

0:10:11 > 0:10:14An Iranian oil tanker is reported to have sunk in the East China Sea,

0:10:14 > 0:10:16eight days after bursting into flames, following

0:10:16 > 0:10:17a collision with another ship.

0:10:17 > 0:10:20The vessel had been transporting nearly a million barrels of oil

0:10:20 > 0:10:21from Iran to South Korea.

0:10:21 > 0:10:24All 32 crew members are presumed dead.

0:10:24 > 0:10:27More than 160 passengers and crew had a narrow escape,

0:10:27 > 0:10:29when their plane skidded off a runway in Turkey.

0:10:29 > 0:10:32The Boeing 737 slid down a steep slope, coming to rest just a few

0:10:32 > 0:10:34metres from the edge of the Black Sea.

0:10:34 > 0:10:37One of the plane's engines broke off, ending up in the water.

0:10:37 > 0:10:45No passengers or crew were hurt.

0:10:46 > 0:10:48Two of the world's leading fashion photographers,

0:10:48 > 0:10:51have been suspended from working for Vogue and other magazines owned

0:10:51 > 0:10:52by the publishing house Conde Nast.

0:10:52 > 0:10:55The New York Times has published a series of allegations

0:10:55 > 0:10:56against Mario Testino

0:10:56 > 0:10:58and Bruce Weber, that they sexually harassed young male models.

0:10:58 > 0:10:59They both deny the claims.

0:10:59 > 0:11:07Adina Campbell reports.

0:11:08 > 0:11:14He is one of the Royal family's favourite photographers. Mario

0:11:14 > 0:11:18Testino has been capturing famous faces for four decades. But the New

0:11:18 > 0:11:22York Times has published allegations of sexual misconduct, with more than

0:11:22 > 0:11:27a dozen male models and assistance accusing the 63-year-old of indecent

0:11:27 > 0:11:32behaviour. Testino's lawyers have said his accusers cannot be

0:11:32 > 0:11:38considered reliable sources. Another well-known photographer, Bruce Weber

0:11:38 > 0:11:43is also facing similar allegations. He has denied any wrongdoing. But

0:11:43 > 0:11:48Conde Nast, which publishes magazines including Vogue and GQ has

0:11:48 > 0:11:54taken action. In a statement, the editor, who calls them both personal

0:11:54 > 0:11:58friends has said, I take the allegations very seriously, and we

0:11:58 > 0:12:02at Conde Nast have decided to put our working relationship with both

0:12:02 > 0:12:05photographers on hold for the foreseeable future. Vogue is a

0:12:05 > 0:12:12global powerhouse. To grace one of the front covers is a massive deal.

0:12:12 > 0:12:16Mario Testino and Bruce Weber have been responsible for some of those

0:12:16 > 0:12:20images, but with allegations of sexual exploitation swirling, their

0:12:20 > 0:12:24futures are hanging in the balance. There are now calls for more

0:12:24 > 0:12:29regulation in the fashion world.I had been at shoes where I had been

0:12:29 > 0:12:33inappropriately touched. I have had inappropriate comments made to me. I

0:12:33 > 0:12:38would like to see unions organised to collectively bargain, and I would

0:12:38 > 0:12:42like to see what the model alliance of New York is proposing, an

0:12:42 > 0:12:45independent body that would represent models against major

0:12:45 > 0:12:50players in the fashion industry. These allegations are the latest to

0:12:50 > 0:12:53rock the world of fashion, entertainment and social media and

0:12:53 > 0:12:57don't seem to be going away.

0:12:57 > 0:12:59Now, with all the sport, here's Karthi Gnanasegaram

0:12:59 > 0:13:01at the BBC Sport Centre.

0:13:01 > 0:13:03Good evening.

0:13:03 > 0:13:05Liverpool have beaten Premier League leaders Manchester City 4-3

0:13:05 > 0:13:07in an enthralling game this evening.

0:13:07 > 0:13:09Liverpool's victory brings to an end City's unbeaten

0:13:09 > 0:13:11domestic run this season.

0:13:11 > 0:13:13Arsenal were defeated 2-1 by Bournemouth and were

0:13:13 > 0:13:20without their star forward, Alexis Sanchez, whose future will be

0:13:20 > 0:13:23decided "in the next 48 hours" after he was left out of the team

0:13:23 > 0:13:24for Sunday's 2-1 defeat at Bournemouth,

0:13:24 > 0:13:28as Natalie Pirks reports.

0:13:28 > 0:13:34With just one win at Anfield since 1981, Liverpool represented a giant

0:13:34 > 0:13:40hurdle in Manchester City's quest for stability, but they soon found

0:13:40 > 0:13:43out why. Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain with a superb strike to do some

0:13:43 > 0:13:49early damage. City hit back, Leroy Sane getting the better of glorious

0:13:49 > 0:13:54carriers, at his near post, of all things. But it was City who were

0:13:54 > 0:13:57soon to have defensive nightmares. Firmino got the better of John Stone

0:13:57 > 0:14:03to make it 2-1. Minutes later, Otamendi was pickpocketed by Sadio

0:14:03 > 0:14:07Mane to make it three. And when Ederson cleared wildly, it was

0:14:07 > 0:14:12Mohamed Salah who would return to the fold with a bang. But in a

0:14:12 > 0:14:16remarkable match, City were not going to lie down, two quick goal

0:14:16 > 0:14:20sending Jurgen Klopp's heart rate through the roof. So far, so

0:14:20 > 0:14:25Liverpool. But Jurgen Klopp's men held on, and City can no longer go

0:14:25 > 0:14:28the whole season unbeaten. There is a relief for Arsenal fans.

0:14:28 > 0:14:30England's cricketers have made an impressive start to their one-day

0:14:30 > 0:14:31international series against Australia, winning

0:14:31 > 0:14:33their first game by five wickets.

0:14:33 > 0:14:35It follows a disappointing 4-0 defeat in the Ashes Test series.

0:14:35 > 0:14:38Today, though, Jason Roy hit the highest one-day international

0:14:38 > 0:14:40score by an Englishman - a record 180.

0:14:40 > 0:14:47Adam Wild reports.

0:14:47 > 0:14:52For English cricket, a time to rebuild, recover, restore some

0:14:52 > 0:14:56respect and some reputations. A fresh start, and it soon became a

0:14:56 > 0:15:00rather good one from England, early wickets falling. But this is

0:15:00 > 0:15:03Australia, and after dominating all winter, they weren't about to go

0:15:03 > 0:15:07easy on their old rivals. A century from Aaron Finch helping them

0:15:07 > 0:15:14towards a total of 304. With days gone by, such targets were imposing.

0:15:14 > 0:15:18For this England one-day side, it was really inviting, Jason Roy

0:15:18 > 0:15:23taking up the challenge with the kind of relish missed by England in

0:15:23 > 0:15:25recent months, brilliantly belligerent, he bludgeoned his way

0:15:25 > 0:15:29to a magnificent 100. Taking the game away from Australia, the

0:15:29 > 0:15:34highest ever one-day international innings by an England player. 184

0:15:34 > 0:15:38Roy, the damage was done. Joe Root was for once the support act. 91

0:15:38 > 0:15:45from him. The win, when it came, comfortable. For English cricket, it

0:15:45 > 0:15:47could scarcely have been more welcome.

0:15:47 > 0:15:49The day's stories are on the BBC Sport website, including

0:15:49 > 0:15:52Anthony Joshua has announced that he will meet New Zealand's

0:15:52 > 0:15:54Joseph Parker in a world heavyweight unification fight in Cardiff

0:15:54 > 0:15:57in March.

0:15:57 > 0:16:00I'll be back with the late news at 10.

0:16:00 > 0:16:09Now on BBC One, it's time for the news where you are.
