:00:21. > :00:23.They're saying the discovery will usher in a new era
:00:24. > :00:25.for our understanding of the universe.
:00:26. > :00:30.The final member of the armed militia which has occupied a US

:00:34. > :00:36.All four of the remaining occupiers are now in custody.
:00:37. > :00:41.I'll speak to our correspondent with all the latest.

:00:44. > :00:46.the counter-accusations and the denials.
:00:47. > :01:01.And a 94-year-old suspected Nazi guard is on trial in Germany
:01:02. > :01:03.accused of assisting in the murders of 170,000 people at
:01:04. > :01:21.Now to a story we've covered a lot here on Outside Source -
:01:22. > :01:24.the armed occupation of a government building in Oregon
:01:25. > :01:36.The last four occupiers have surrendered.
:01:37. > :01:43.From now to give you a quick reminder, going over to Oregon, and
:01:44. > :01:50.it was the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge, close to the town of Burns.
:01:51. > :01:54.We can speak to James Cook, with incredible developments over the
:01:55. > :02:00.past hour. He is in Los Angeles. Tell us a little bit about those
:02:01. > :02:07.four, and particular that last person who gave themselves up to the
:02:08. > :02:14.police. Yes, it was a pretty dramatic end to this occupation,
:02:15. > :02:20.which has gone on for 41 days. The last man to surrender effectively,
:02:21. > :02:24.to walk out and surrender was a 27-year-old man from high off. In
:02:25. > :02:35.the last iron or two of negotiations -- from Ohio. -- in the last few
:02:36. > :02:42.hours of negotiations, some of it like us live on the Internet, there
:02:43. > :02:46.were tense negotiations, he said liberty or die. One man and wife
:02:47. > :02:52.walked out with their hands on the air and holding the American flag,
:02:53. > :03:03.surrendering to the F VI. A tense but peaceful end, to something that
:03:04. > :03:16.lasted more than one month. And it ended with one death. A man named
:03:17. > :03:21.LaVoy Finicum. And those final hours as they were doing the stand-off. It
:03:22. > :03:26.was interesting to see comments about this stand-off. I built a
:03:27. > :03:34.vision about people supported them or not, put that in context for us.
:03:35. > :03:39.-- some real division. Yes, as David Fry, the last man to surrender, was
:03:40. > :03:45.speaking, there were some abusive comments attacking him and his
:03:46. > :03:49.fellow militia members, were occupying this bird reserve, others
:03:50. > :03:54.were supportive. I am back in Los Angeles but I was in Oregon and in
:03:55. > :03:59.Burns talking to these people, including the man who was shot dead.
:04:00. > :04:04.And there was support for them in terms of what they were looking for,
:04:05. > :04:08.complaining about the distant federal government on the other
:04:09. > :04:13.coast of the United States, in Washington, DC, imposing its will on
:04:14. > :04:18.farmers, ranchers, in the western United States. And a lot of people
:04:19. > :04:24.in this small Oregon town of Burns help that message resonated, but
:04:25. > :04:28.many of them do not agree with the tactics and that taking over as
:04:29. > :04:35.federal property and driving around in federal cars and brandishing
:04:36. > :04:39.weapons in our threatening them -- in a threatening manner, as some
:04:40. > :04:43.people alleged, but the occupier saying they were a peaceful all the
:04:44. > :04:47.way through. Thank you very much, James, for bringing Biddy does that

:05:10. > :05:21.It is believed specifically it happened around midnight at the Topo
:05:22. > :05:25.Chico prison. We can see in these images the riot police getting ready
:05:26. > :05:35.and to go into the building. The governor of the state has put the
:05:36. > :05:38.death toll at 52. These images are the police stopping families from
:05:39. > :05:42.entering. Katie Watson has the latest.
:05:43. > :05:44.In addition to 52, 12 people have been injured,
:05:45. > :05:48.Now, there is little detail about how the riot started and why,
:05:49. > :05:51.but witnesses say that they heard shouts and explosions when a fire
:05:52. > :05:52.started, just after midnight on Thursday morning.
:05:53. > :05:55.The authorities said they did have it under control by about 1.30
:05:56. > :05:58.in the morning, but nevertheless, those pictures you see now worried
:05:59. > :06:00.family members, concerned exactly what happened and trying
:06:01. > :06:08.So it's still an unfolding situation, but the latest
:06:09. > :06:14.And with this, it has been an issue in prisons that there has been
:06:15. > :06:17.riots, it's not the first time something like this has
:06:18. > :06:25.A few years ago, in fact in the same state, 42 people died.

:09:18. > :09:20.We cannot verify what substance was, but the athlete, who doesn't
:09:21. > :09:22.want to be identified, told me it was a banned substance.
:09:23. > :09:23.Have you used performance-enhancing drugs?

:10:58. > :11:00.right now, that Kenya would be declared non-compliant should we not

:16:23. > :16:25.been a huge focus on this in the newspapers, they have been

:17:51. > :17:56.were killed at Auschwitz, yet few have faced justice
:17:57. > :18:01.for their part in mass murder. A recent court ruling means that
:18:02. > :18:04.anyone who worked in the camp, regardless of their role,

:18:19. > :18:25.are a signal, a signal for a country and a signal for humanity,
:18:26. > :18:28.and for justice. He's 94, the same age

:20:16. > :20:17.organisation and big bosses. And more importantly,
:20:18. > :20:21.you have a TV channel, Press TV, which is at the forefront
:20:22. > :20:27.of the publicity campaign for the Iranian government,
:20:28. > :20:31.for the Iranian state. Obviously, they broadcast
:20:32. > :20:33.in English all over the world, they have a lot of following
:20:34. > :20:36.overseas, and this TV, by definition and by mission,
:20:37. > :20:38.is supposed to give the best of the values and the ideals
:20:39. > :20:43.of the Islamic Republic of Iran. So whether or not the allegations
:20:44. > :20:45.have any substance, it's going to be very embarrassing for Iran
:20:46. > :20:51.and for Press TV in particular. And, with Press TV, they have
:20:52. > :20:57.taken the action of suspending the two members, that there are
:20:58. > :21:02.still allegations against. They were also saying in a statement
:21:03. > :21:07.issued via Iran's government that, although the audio file
:21:08. > :21:10.that we spoke about is not legally admissible, and no complaint has
:21:11. > :21:12.been made, but it is a serious matter, and the relevant officials
:21:13. > :21:15.are investigating the case to clarify the issue,
:21:16. > :21:20.because, as we mentioned, she has actually fled
:21:21. > :21:22.and did not file a case? The statement somehow
:21:23. > :21:27.blames her for not having taken the official, or the routine
:21:28. > :21:31.legal procedures, saying that, even going further to accuse her
:21:32. > :21:36.of having resorted to giving such interviews, to even people that,
:21:37. > :21:40.according to the statement, are against the Islamic Republic,
:21:41. > :21:43.in order to create a scenario. And this scenario is one of those
:21:44. > :21:47.where it is popular with the Iranian establishment, whenever
