:01:58. > :02:02.News at six. The radical Muslim cleric Abu Hamza can be extradited

:02:02. > :02:05.from Britain to the United States to face terrorism charges. That is

:02:05. > :02:07.the ruling by judges at the European Court of Human Rights, who

:02:07. > :02:12.dismissed his claim that he would face inhuman and degrading

:02:12. > :02:14.treatment if convicted in America. Abu Hamza is one of five terrorism

:02:14. > :02:18.suspects who have used numerous legal challenges over many years to

:02:18. > :02:21.fight extradition. But the judges also said the men can't be

:02:21. > :02:27.extradited until a three-month deadline for a final appeal has

:02:27. > :02:34.expired. Here's our home affairs correspondent, June Kelly.

:02:43. > :02:47.British courts for inciting murder and now he is one of five terror

:02:47. > :02:52.suspects facing American justice. Europe has cleared the way for them

:02:52. > :03:02.to be put on a plane, acknowledging they could face life in prison. In

:03:02. > :03:06.

:03:06. > :03:11.a statement, the European Court I welcome the decision that has

:03:11. > :03:14.been taken by the European Court of Human Rights. This now permits the

:03:14. > :03:19.extradition of Abu Hamza and a number of others to the United

:03:19. > :03:23.States. The courts have ruled that would not be a violation of the

:03:23. > :03:27.human rights and we will be working to ensure we can hand over these

:03:27. > :03:32.individuals to the United States as soon as possible. Abu Hamza are

:03:32. > :03:36.once spoke about the UK's desire to get rid of him. As a human, I am

:03:36. > :03:42.worried but as a preacher, you cannot deport me outside of the

:03:43. > :03:48.planet. You can only put me in God's kingdom. Abu Hamza is said to

:03:48. > :03:52.have been involved in a plot to kidnap Westerners in Yemen. Four

:03:52. > :03:58.Britons died. Inside the US he is accused of conspiring to set up a

:03:58. > :04:02.terrorist training camp in Oregon. For years his power base was

:04:02. > :04:06.Finsbury Park mosque. In the late 90s, Reda Hassaine worked as an

:04:06. > :04:13.informant inside the mosque, gathering intelligence for the

:04:13. > :04:19.police and MI5. He I described Abu Hamza as the terrorist in chief. A

:04:19. > :04:25.very dangerous person. But before 9/11, that was not the British will

:04:25. > :04:33.dilute his new team. He was seen as a clown, a big mouth. -- not how

:04:33. > :04:37.the British authorities saw him. With Abu Hamza in charge, a

:04:37. > :04:43.Finsbury Park Mosque became a breeding-ground for extremists.

:04:43. > :04:50.Here praying with him, Hussein Osman, one of the 7/7 terrace cell

:04:50. > :04:55.who tried and failed to cause carnage for a second time. Others

:04:55. > :05:02.include Zacharias Masami, the only person convicted in relation to

:05:02. > :05:12.9/11, Richard Reid, de shoe bomber, and the men jailed over the murder

:05:12. > :05:17.of a policeman. Four of the men could end up in a modern day

:05:17. > :05:22.Alcatraz, ADX Florence. Abu Hamza will not be sent here because of

:05:22. > :05:26.his disabilities. He has lost both his arms and is blind in one eye.

:05:26. > :05:32.Babar Ahmad is one of those facing life in ADX Florence. His family

:05:32. > :05:37.believe he should be tried in the UK. British justice appears to have

:05:37. > :05:42.been sub-contracted to the US. This should be immediately rectified by

:05:42. > :05:46.putting Babar Ahmad on trial in the UK. The five facing extradition are

:05:46. > :05:52.wanted on a range of charges, including providing support for

:05:52. > :05:59.terrorists and bombing US embassies. One is accused of Rover 269 counts

:05:59. > :06:05.of murder. -- of over 269. And these appeals have been going

:06:05. > :06:10.on for years. Is this the end of the road? No, not quite. They have

:06:10. > :06:14.one avenue left, an appeal to the grand chamber at the European Court

:06:14. > :06:20.of Human Rights. Many try and use exceed to get a hearing there but

:06:20. > :06:24.if they do, this case could take who knows how long. If they do not

:06:24. > :06:28.get a hearing there, the expectation is that they will be on

:06:28. > :06:34.a plane to Colorado in three months' time. People will be saying,

:06:34. > :06:38.how come it has taken so long? One of the suspects, his case goes back

:06:38. > :06:44.to 2004. The answer is that this is part of the Americans global "war

:06:44. > :06:50.on terror". Their determination to hunt down and bring to justice

:06:50. > :06:55.people commit him wherever country they happen to be. -- People, in

:06:55. > :06:59.whatever country they happen to be. Inevitably that takes a lot of time

:06:59. > :07:03.and in this case you end up with Egyptian nationals held in English

:07:03. > :07:09.prisons, wanted by the American authorities and have in the future

:07:09. > :07:12.of their case decided in a French court, so the determination of the

:07:12. > :07:16.Americans to have global justice is producing all kinds of

:07:16. > :07:18.international complexities and I suspect there will be other cases

:07:18. > :07:21.to follow. Syrian opposition groups say a

:07:21. > :07:25.thousand people have been killed by government forces in the last eight

:07:25. > :07:30.days. Today there were fresh clashes, shattering hopes for a

:07:30. > :07:34.peace plan, brokered by the former UN Secretary General Kofi Annan.

:07:34. > :07:39.That was due to be implemented today. The worst of the unrest has

:07:39. > :07:41.been in the cities of Homs, Aleppo The fresh violence happened as Mr

:07:41. > :07:45.Annan was visiting Syria's border with Turkey where tens of thousands

:07:45. > :07:48.of people have fled to escape the attacks. He spoke to refugees at

:07:48. > :07:58.the Yayladagi refugee camp. From there, Fergal Keane sent this

:07:58. > :08:04.

:08:04. > :08:09.If peace is about to dawn, there is This is the voice of the camera man

:08:09. > :08:16.recording the violence. This is Homs, it is being destroyed by

:08:16. > :08:20.random shelling today, April 10th! God is great! In Homs and other

:08:20. > :08:27.embattled towns, the destruction seemed to be escalating, if

:08:27. > :08:33.anything. And with time running out for his peace mission, Kofi Annan

:08:33. > :08:37.claim to visit the refugees of Syria's violence. There was a

:08:37. > :08:46.welcome. Most of these people have fled from the north of the country,

:08:46. > :08:50.with stories of killing and torture. All day, Mr Annan's cavalcade moved

:08:50. > :08:54.from camp to camp. Some of the refugees we met clung to the hope

:08:54. > :08:59.that his mission might still work. Maybe something will happen, this

:08:59. > :09:04.woman told us, and became go back to our families and children.

:09:04. > :09:07.Kofi Annan is being asked for solutions he cannot deliver. For

:09:07. > :09:11.some it is a question of achieving a ceasefire and been able to go

:09:11. > :09:16.home, but a growing number of voices are demanding that the

:09:16. > :09:20.opposition be armed and achieve military victory. The mood of

:09:20. > :09:26.militancy is growing. These men told us they were from the Free

:09:26. > :09:32.Syrian Army and had little faith now in the Annan plan.

:09:32. > :09:36.TRANSLATION: We want NATO to come to Syria and give weapons to the

:09:36. > :09:42.Free Syrian Army and we want a liberated zone so we can free our

:09:42. > :09:46.country. The clock ticks on the UN's deadline. Kofi Annan's mission

:09:46. > :09:52.looks increasingly forlorn. Though he continued to press Damascus to

:09:52. > :09:57.pull its forces back. Let me appeal to the Syrian government and

:09:57. > :09:59.parties to cease violence in accordance with the plan, and I

:09:59. > :10:07.believe there should be no preconditions for stopping the

:10:07. > :10:10.violence. But in Moscow, where he met his Russian counterpart,

:10:10. > :10:17.Syria's foreign minister claimed his side was a bar are deemed by

:10:17. > :10:21.the agreement. -- was abiding by the agreement. We have withdrawn

:10:21. > :10:25.some military units, we have allowed more media channels to

:10:25. > :10:31.enter Syria and we have reached agreement to allow humanitarian aid

:10:31. > :10:36.and transfer it to be needed. Annan asked today what the world

:10:36. > :10:41.would do if his plan failed. It is the question now bearing down with

:10:41. > :10:44.growing urgency. An 18-year-old woman has fallen to

:10:44. > :10:49.her death from a tower block in London as police arrived at the

:10:49. > :10:52.flat. Scotland Yard say she fell from her bedroom window in Woolwich

:10:52. > :11:02.just before officers arrested a man on suspicion of assisting an

:11:02. > :11:02.

:11:02. > :11:06.It was from a bedroom on the 17th floor of this block of flats that

:11:06. > :11:11.the young woman plunged to her death. It happened at around 9:30am

:11:11. > :11:15.this morning, shortly after police arrived at the flat to carry out

:11:15. > :11:19.and the rest regarding a recall to prison. The 18-year-old was

:11:19. > :11:24.pronounced dead at the scene. A man was arrested on suspicion of

:11:24. > :11:28.assisting an offender and is currently in custody. My mate but

:11:28. > :11:34.phoned me and told me to look out of the window. I saw the police

:11:34. > :11:41.cars, I was like, what is coming on? Not nice, not a nice feeling.

:11:41. > :11:46.Just to see someone diet that sudden, just outside. It is scary.

:11:46. > :11:51.-- to see someone die. circumstances leading to the

:11:51. > :11:54.woman's falling, we do not yet know, but the Metropolitan Police are

:11:54. > :11:58.making it clear that the flat was not raided and that the police

:11:58. > :12:03.officers were let in. It was only in the late afternoon that the

:12:03. > :12:07.young woman's body was taken away. She is yet to be formally

:12:07. > :12:10.identified. The Independent Police Complaints Commission has been

:12:10. > :12:15.informed and the Met Police's Directorate of professional

:12:15. > :12:18.standards is now investigating. Six men have been arrested

:12:18. > :12:22.following a rally in Londonderry to mark the anniversary of the 1916

:12:22. > :12:25.Easter Rising against British rule in Ireland. Several hundred people

:12:25. > :12:28.attended the event yesterday, at which a masked man read out a

:12:28. > :12:33.statement from the Real IRA, threatening to attack police

:12:33. > :12:36.officers. Severn Trent Water in the Midlands

:12:36. > :12:42.has announced its in talks to sell water to an area affected by

:12:42. > :12:46.drought. It aims to pump 30 million litres a day to Anglian Water. That

:12:46. > :12:49.is enough for 100,000 homes. Anglian Water is one of seven

:12:49. > :12:53.companies that imposed a hosepipe ban last week to help ease the

:12:53. > :12:56.shortage. The Prime Minister and a delegation

:12:56. > :13:01.of 40 British businessmen have spent the day in Japan on a trip to

:13:01. > :13:05.boost trade. The visit to Tokyo coincided with an announcement from

:13:05. > :13:09.the car maker Nissan that it would build a new model at its plant in

:13:09. > :13:13.Sunderland, creating hundreds of new jobs. The trip is intended to

:13:13. > :13:17.generate millions of pounds of business for UK companies. Japan is

:13:17. > :13:21.the world's third largest economy. But currently only the 17th largest

:13:21. > :13:30.export market for the United Kingdom. From Tokyo, James Landale

:13:30. > :13:34.sent this report which contains flash photography.

:13:34. > :13:40.The Prime Minister is on tour, selling Britain to the world. His

:13:40. > :13:45.mission this week, to secure trade deals across south-east Asia. Old

:13:45. > :13:50.friends and allies with Japan, he says, but an opportunity that must

:13:50. > :13:55.be renewed. A chance to pay his respect to the 78-year-old Emperor

:13:55. > :13:59.but also a chance to forge new relationships, not just secure more

:13:59. > :14:03.Japanese investment at home but more British exports over here.

:14:03. > :14:10.is part of the job for the Prime Minister to drum up British

:14:10. > :14:14.business, load up aeroplanes of British business, so that we can

:14:14. > :14:19.make more from Britain, sell more, export more and that is one of the

:14:19. > :14:23.ways we can get our economy moving. He came to the headquarters of

:14:23. > :14:27.Misanp to thank them for choosing the Sunderland plant to make their

:14:28. > :14:32.new car. I have seen the hatchback but I will not tell anybody what it

:14:32. > :14:36.looks like! It is the secret and you can trust me! But he will let

:14:36. > :14:41.on that the deal could create 200 new jobs at the plant and many

:14:41. > :14:47.hundreds more at its suppliers and there could be more jobs to for

:14:47. > :14:55.another deal in Japanese Investment for infrastructure. He and his

:14:55. > :15:01.counterpart also agreed a deal to boost Britain's defence. He will

:15:01. > :15:05.get access to Japan's previously closed markets. No doubt, to break

:15:05. > :15:09.into Japan is difficult. We manufacture helicopters and we have

:15:09. > :15:12.had an arrangement here for a number of years but it is a tough

:15:12. > :15:16.market. With this new arrangement, we hope that will become a lot

:15:16. > :15:21.easier and we will be able to jointly develop and manufacture

:15:21. > :15:26.more products in Japan. In the wake of last year's Fukushima nuclear

:15:26. > :15:30.plant crisis, David Cameron also agreed to share expertise in

:15:30. > :15:37.decommissioning nuclear power plants. He will then go to Malaysia,

:15:37. > :15:40.Indonesia and ultimately Burma, where he will meet Aung San Suu Kyi.

:15:40. > :15:44.Japan's economy is the third largest in the world and win more

:15:44. > :15:47.business will be worth a huge amount of money to Britain. David

:15:47. > :15:51.Cameron comes after weeks of trouble at home but he insists that

:15:51. > :15:57.he is focused on the bigger picture of fixing the economy, and that he

:15:57. > :16:00.says means drumming up business in places like this of.

:16:00. > :16:03.Our top story tonight: The European Court of Human Rights has ruled

:16:03. > :16:13.that five terrorism suspects, including the radical preacher Abu

:16:13. > :16:16.

:16:16. > :16:22.Hamza, can be extradited to the US. Southampton remembers the Titanic

:16:46. > :16:49.computer software company that was set up less than two years ago and

:16:49. > :16:55.has just 13 employees has just been snapped up by the social networking

:16:55. > :17:00.giant Facebook for $1 billion. Instagram came up with a smartphone

:17:00. > :17:03.app that allows people to share their photos easily online. So

:17:03. > :17:10.why's Facebook prepared to spend so much on it? Our business

:17:10. > :17:15.correspondent Emma Simpson reports. It's the hot new app from President

:17:15. > :17:22.Obama, to Jamie Oliver, millions of people are using this photo-sharing

:17:22. > :17:26.programme on their smartphones, but is it worth $one billion? The

:17:26. > :17:32.founder of Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg, thinks so. Analysts say

:17:32. > :17:38.it's a tactical move by the world's biggest social media network.

:17:38. > :17:41.think the strategic rationale to acquire one of the fastest growing

:17:41. > :17:45.apps is clear, they prevent Instagram from becoming a threat in

:17:45. > :17:55.its own right or being acquired by competitor-like Google but they are

:17:55. > :18:00.paying a very high price for it. Here is The company they started

:18:00. > :18:06.less than two years ago is now about to make them incredibly rich.

:18:06. > :18:11.It's a small company, there are only 13 employees. But they do have

:18:11. > :18:16.30 million users uploading five million new pictures every day. So

:18:16. > :18:22.what's all the fuss about? Well, you can take a picture, and then

:18:22. > :18:26.treat it like an old polaroid for instance, and you can share it and

:18:26. > :18:30.post the picture instantly to another site, like Facebook. In

:18:30. > :18:34.this fast-changing world it's the smartphone that's an increasingly

:18:34. > :18:39.important battle ground and Facebook, ahead of its floatation,

:18:39. > :18:42.is determined to stay on top. In some countries 30%, 40% of all

:18:42. > :18:46.Facebook activity is purely on mobile, so this is an area where

:18:46. > :18:51.Facebook is very much keen to not only retain a certain sense of

:18:51. > :18:56.dominance, but also defend its position. They've paid a lot for an

:18:56. > :19:01.app that doesn't appear to generate any money. Facebook says Instagram

:19:01. > :19:10.will continue in its current form. Some are wondering if all this is a

:19:10. > :19:13.sign of another technology bubble. The gunman who killed 77 people in

:19:13. > :19:15.attacks in Norway last July has been declared sane. It means Anders

:19:16. > :19:18.Breivik could be sentenced to life imprisonment if found guilty when

:19:19. > :19:24.he goes on trial next week, rather than being committed to psychiatric

:19:25. > :19:27.care. There's been a dramatic development

:19:27. > :19:30.in the investigation following the death of the British businessman

:19:30. > :19:32.Neil Heywood in China last November. Initially, the Chinese said that Mr

:19:33. > :19:35.Heywood had died from excess alcohol, but today Chinese state

:19:35. > :19:41.television reported that the wife of a leading Communist Party

:19:41. > :19:46.politician, Bo Xilai, is being investigated. Our diplomatic

:19:46. > :19:50.correspondent James Robbins is here. What more can you tell us about

:19:50. > :19:53.this? This is an extraordinary series of developments. One of

:19:53. > :19:57.China's most senior politicians, senior member of the Communist

:19:57. > :20:03.Party has been stripped of all his posts within the party and it was

:20:03. > :20:07.in the city where he was party boss that Neil Heywood died last

:20:07. > :20:10.November. Officially it was given out he died of alcohol poisoning

:20:10. > :20:16.but his body was quickly cremated. There were suspicions about his

:20:16. > :20:19.death and about the links he may have had with Bo Xilai, the

:20:19. > :20:26.business relationship. The local police chief was himself suspicion,

:20:26. > :20:29.he was sacked by Bo Xilai, and now his wife has been detained by the

:20:29. > :20:32.authorities on suspicion of involvement in the murder. This all

:20:32. > :20:36.follows Britain's insistence that there be a re-investigation of the

:20:36. > :20:40.death and a few minutes ago William Hague gave us this reaction.

:20:40. > :20:44.It is a death that needs to be investigated in its own terms, on

:20:44. > :20:48.its own merits, without political considerations and so I hope they

:20:48. > :20:51.will go about it in that way and I welcome the announcement that they

:20:51. > :20:55.will have an investigation. I am sure we are going to hear a

:20:55. > :21:00.lot more about this in the hours and days ahead, because this is the

:21:00. > :21:08.largest political scandal in China for over 20 years and it comes in a

:21:28. > :21:31.recording of the ship's whistle was then played at the docks to mark

:21:31. > :21:36.the exact moment, 100 years ago, that the liner set sail on her

:21:39. > :21:44.The sparkling waters of the dock where excited crowds watched a

:21:49. > :21:54.disaster which followed just five days later. Titanic's physical

:21:54. > :21:58.presence filled the city with excitement, 500 locally recruited

:21:58. > :22:02.crew members crowded her gangways for the maiden voyage.

:22:02. > :22:09.Today, their descendants exchanged stories of that morning, of those

:22:09. > :22:14.they lost, and the few who survived. As far as we know he was a boot

:22:45. > :22:49.News of the disaster brought frustration and despair to the

:22:49. > :22:57.streets around the port. Day and night the crowds strained to read

:22:57. > :23:00.the casualty lists. A century on, a busy port was stilled, as this

:23:00. > :23:09.marine community turned its thoughts to the horrors of one

:23:09. > :23:15.night on a distant ocean. Silence broken by a sound which

:23:15. > :23:25.hasn't been heard since it echoed across the roof-tops a century ago

:23:25. > :23:29.when Titanic said her farewells. From around the sprawling docks

:23:29. > :23:35.came the response, as one by one the visitors laid their tributes

:23:35. > :23:42.and looked back to that departure. On Southampton water the tug

:23:50. > :23:53.Titanic's route across the Atlantic, has been forced to turn back due to

:23:53. > :23:57.a medical emergency on board. The ship will move closer to the Irish

:23:57. > :23:59.coast so the passenger, whose family have been informed, can be

:23:59. > :24:04.evacuated. Balmoral is still expected to reach the wreck site to

:24:04. > :24:09.hold a commemorative service this weekend. In Southampton, Titanic's

:24:09. > :24:18.loss will forever be a painful part of the city's history, and families

:24:18. > :24:20.will return home tonight knowing that the story is still being told.

:24:23. > :24:27.managed to stop their school bus from crashing after the driver fell

:24:27. > :24:30.ill at the wheel. CCTV footage from inside the bus reveals the dramatic

:24:30. > :24:36.moment when one of the boys realised what was happening and

:24:36. > :24:42.raced to the front to try to take control. Steve Kingstone reports.

:24:42. > :24:51.It began as a typical school run, filmed by an on board camera. Watch

:24:51. > :24:54.the driver in the bottom right of the shot, and 13-year-old Jeremy

:24:54. > :25:01.Wuitschick watching him. He looked like he was choking, he was making

:25:01. > :25:05.a weird noise. I just went up, grabbed the wheel, turned it right

:25:05. > :25:12.and took the keys out of the ignition. A life-saving reaction.

:25:12. > :25:16.How did he know what to do? I was reading a book about the

:25:17. > :25:24.superheroes and this guy was on a bus and the guy was telling him to

:25:24. > :25:30.turn the ignition off. He wasn't the only hero. Somebody call 911

:25:30. > :25:36.shouts another pupil, then Jeremy is joined by a second boy to

:25:36. > :25:38.perform CPR. I ran up and tried doing chest compressions, I could

:25:38. > :25:42.tell it was getting harder for him to breathe. The driver was taken to

:25:42. > :25:46.hospital in grave condition, but the children escaped injury. All

:25:46. > :25:56.thanks to a young man who would later say I didn't think, I just

:25:56. > :25:56.

:25:56. > :26:03.just did it. If we look back to the records, and

:26:03. > :26:09.100 years ago in Southampton it was just short of 12C as Titanic set

:26:09. > :26:13.sail and largely sunny. It wasn't the same everywhere. Low pressure

:26:13. > :26:18.to the east of the UK, with that we saw blustery cool winds and plenty

:26:18. > :26:22.of showers. Now, if we take the chart 100 years forward, that same

:26:22. > :26:25.position of a low pressure system very, very similar to what we have

:26:25. > :26:28.at the moment. We have showers across the country,

:26:28. > :26:33.some of those heavy and thundery into the evening. The rain we have

:26:33. > :26:36.seen in the south-east of Scotland and north-east England could remain

:26:36. > :26:40.in place, but lighter. The showers will fade back to the coasts.

:26:40. > :26:44.Inland, it becomes clear and rather chilly as well. Temperatures

:26:44. > :26:47.dropping away quite considerably, we could see a frost in some

:26:47. > :26:52.gardens to start the morning. A frustrating week for gardeners,

:26:52. > :26:55.welcome rain and sunshine, but to temper that chilly nights as well.

:26:55. > :26:57.A chilly start to Wednesday across the board. Showers around the coast

:26:57. > :27:00.of Scotland. One or two for Northern Ireland, but largely dry T

:27:00. > :27:05.will be dry inland across much of Scotland, although still lots of

:27:05. > :27:09.clouds towards the borders and across north-east England. Away

:27:09. > :27:12.from that, showers dotted around the coasts of England and Wales.

:27:12. > :27:15.Most inland will wake up to sunshine tomorrow. A bit of chill

:27:15. > :27:20.in the air, but compared with this morning the winds are lighter and

:27:20. > :27:23.the strength of the sun will probably temper that chill. Through

:27:23. > :27:27.the day with lighter wind the showers will be slower moving once

:27:27. > :27:32.they crop up later in the morning into the afternoon. Focus for them

:27:32. > :27:35.probably parts of central and eastern Scotland, through central

:27:35. > :27:44.England. Again with hail and thunder mixed in. Some of the

:27:44. > :27:50.coasts probably stay dry and sunny. In the sunshine temperatures around
