:00:09. > :00:13.The rise and fall in China of an anti-corruption campaigner, sacked

:00:13. > :00:19.as commoners Party boss in the city of Chongqing.

:00:19. > :00:25.After a deadly soccer riot in Egypt, 75 people are charged with murder

:00:25. > :00:32.and negligence, including the local chief of security.

:00:32. > :00:36.Syria's government marks the first anniversary of a bloody uprising.

:00:36. > :00:39.Welcome to BBC World News. Also coming up in the programme:

:00:39. > :00:45.Investigators rule out speeding as the cause of a coach crash in

:00:45. > :00:48.Switzerland which killed 28 people, 22 of them children.

:00:48. > :00:58.Also, are these 11,000 year-old Scholes found in China the evidence

:00:58. > :01:09.

:01:09. > :01:13.Chinese state media have announced a major sacking within the ranks of

:01:13. > :01:17.the ruling Communist Party. It says that the party boss in the south-

:01:17. > :01:21.western city of Chongqing, one of the five central cities, has been

:01:21. > :01:24.dismissed in a scandal involving his former police chief. Bo Xilai

:01:24. > :01:29.was a high-profile politician who had been tipped for a place later

:01:29. > :01:32.this year on the most powerful body in China, the standing committee of

:01:32. > :01:38.the Politburo, as Martin Patience reports.

:01:38. > :01:42.He is one of China's most high- profile politicians. Bo Xilai is

:01:42. > :01:48.comfortable in the limelight and had been tipped for a top position

:01:48. > :01:52.during this year's leadership change. He made his name launching

:01:53. > :01:57.a campaign against organised crime in Chongqing, where he was party

:01:57. > :02:03.chief, but since last month there has been intense speculation over

:02:03. > :02:09.his future. His police chief, shown here on the right, apparently tried

:02:09. > :02:14.to defect at a US consulate.'s's close associate is now under

:02:14. > :02:20.investigation. -- Bo Xilai. It was this extraordinary political

:02:20. > :02:24.scandal which now appears to have claimed Bo Xilai. On Wednesday, the

:02:24. > :02:32.premiere took the highly unusual step of criticising his colleague

:02:32. > :02:40.in public. TRANSLATION: The municipal party committee and

:02:40. > :02:43.municipal government must reflect seriously on the incident. Bo Xilai

:02:43. > :02:48.appeared withdrawn at this year's parliamentary session. He may have

:02:48. > :02:52.already known that his days were numbered. Later this year, a new

:02:52. > :02:57.generation of leaders will start assuming power in China. Bo Xilai

:02:57. > :03:06.was expected to be among them, but with his career now over, he has

:03:06. > :03:10.become a casualty in a struggle at the very top of Chinese politics.

:03:10. > :03:13.David Zweig is a professor of social science at the Hong Kong

:03:13. > :03:19.University of Science and Technology. I asked him what Bo

:03:19. > :03:25.Xilai did wrong that cost him so dearly. Well, two things. We do not

:03:25. > :03:29.know specifically what his former secret head of police had on him in

:03:29. > :03:35.his file that he took to the American embassy and then up with

:03:36. > :03:41.him to Beijing, to the American consulate. I assume he share that

:03:41. > :03:46.with people in Beijing. But I think he also, with his firebrand way of

:03:46. > :03:48.politics, he probably made the leadership nervous that if he was

:03:49. > :03:54.put on the standing committee of the Politburo and things did not go

:03:54. > :03:57.so well, maybe he would try a kind of populism, take politics to the

:03:57. > :04:02.streets again, making people nervous. I think that kind of thing

:04:02. > :04:06.might have made people nervous. you read into that, then, the sort

:04:06. > :04:11.of people who will be appointed to the standing committee? The

:04:11. > :04:15.majority of places are up for grabs. Well, I think we have a good sense

:04:15. > :04:20.of who is likely to get in, and these people, some of them are not

:04:20. > :04:28.necessarily really passive guys. I have met one or two of them, one in

:04:28. > :04:32.particular, and he is not a... Is responsible for the party

:04:32. > :04:37.organisation and he is not a passive guy. He is a charismatic

:04:37. > :04:40.guy, but I think he plays within the boundaries, and I think Bo

:04:41. > :04:44.Xilai played a little bit too much outside the boundaries.

:04:44. > :04:47.75 people have been charged in connection with the Egyptian

:04:47. > :04:51.football riots last month in which more than 70 people were killed.

:04:51. > :04:55.The violence that plays in the northern city of Port Said at the

:04:55. > :05:00.end of a match which was taking place between rival teams. Those

:05:00. > :05:04.charged include nine police officers, along with two miners.

:05:04. > :05:09.Jon Leyne is in Cairo. He gave me more detail on the charges. They

:05:09. > :05:12.include the former head of security for Port Said and his deputy, and

:05:12. > :05:17.seven other police officers, we are not sure of their ranks. Three

:05:17. > :05:24.officials from Al-Masry, the club in Port Said where the tragic game

:05:24. > :05:28.happened. And also football fans themselves. They are accused of

:05:28. > :05:33.physically killing Al-Ahly fans. This seems to have come in response

:05:33. > :05:37.to increasing pressure from Al-Ahly, the club whose fans were mostly the

:05:37. > :05:41.victim, the club based in Cairo. They are staging a big

:05:41. > :05:46.demonstration, several thousand people descending on the public

:05:46. > :05:49.prosecutor's office, and they have been demanding justice for the

:05:49. > :05:54.rights of the martyrs, and they are still not happy with what has been

:05:54. > :05:59.announced. What are they say they have drawn all this from? Are their

:05:59. > :06:03.confessions involved? We saw some pictures, didn't we, at the time?

:06:03. > :06:09.We have not got any details of that. We just heard the announcement from

:06:09. > :06:14.straight TV, but very quickly after the tragedy the security teeth in

:06:14. > :06:18.Port Said did resign from his possession -- the security chief in

:06:18. > :06:24.Port Said did resign from his position. It is not clear what the

:06:24. > :06:28.evidence would be against the football fans. I would doubt that

:06:28. > :06:33.the CCTV would be as in a British football ground, but it is possible.

:06:33. > :06:36.In Afghanistan, the local man is stolen vehicle burst into flames at

:06:36. > :06:40.the British base at Camp Bastion in Helmand province has died from his

:06:40. > :06:45.burns. The Afghan worked as a translator. He was attempting to

:06:45. > :06:49.ram the vehicle into a group of US Marines. At the same time, the US

:06:49. > :06:53.Defence Secretary, Leon Panetta's plane was landing at a nearby

:06:53. > :06:58.runway. Any last that also, he told reporters he had no reason to

:06:58. > :07:03.believe he was the target. -- in the last hour or so. The American

:07:03. > :07:06.soldier accused of killing 16 Afghan civilians earlier and taken

:07:06. > :07:12.to Kuwait. US officials say legal proceedings against him will be

:07:12. > :07:15.going ahead beyond the borders of Afghanistan. The victims, nine of

:07:15. > :07:21.them children, were shot in their homes in the early hours of Sunday.

:07:21. > :07:24.A short while ago I was joined from Kabul by a former independent

:07:24. > :07:28.member of Afghanistan's parliament and now a political activist. He

:07:28. > :07:35.said the US soldier ought to have been put before a criminal tribunal

:07:35. > :07:42.in Afghanistan. Well, I think it would be very helpful to address

:07:42. > :07:48.the public perception in this country and take the soldier to the

:07:48. > :07:51.crime scene or the area that his crime was perpetrated and hold a

:07:51. > :07:57.war crimes tribunal might there. This would go a long way in

:07:57. > :08:01.quelling the nation's frustration and narrow the gap that is widening

:08:01. > :08:06.every day between the Afghan people, their government and the coalition.

:08:06. > :08:12.He do not think that it would fund a further the flames of antagonism

:08:12. > :08:16.and upset and frustrate people? The response has been extraordinary,

:08:17. > :08:22.hasn't it? I think we have to remember one thing, that the people

:08:22. > :08:25.of this country think that if the US and the Allies came to our

:08:25. > :08:33.Afghanistan to protect their national interest and safeguard

:08:33. > :08:39.their civilians from a repeat of September 11th, they also would

:08:39. > :08:43.like to see that justice is for all human beings the same, and that the

:08:43. > :08:48.lives of Afghans are worth the same as lives of Americans and Brits and

:08:49. > :08:52.Italians and Germans and French. So therefore it would go a long way in

:08:53. > :08:57.removing that perception of conspiracies that exist in the east

:08:57. > :09:06.and the Islamic world that lives are worth differently in the east

:09:06. > :09:09.and the West, and this trial would Elsewhere in Afghanistan, a

:09:10. > :09:14.roadside bomb has killed at least 13 Afghan civilians in the southern

:09:14. > :09:20.province of Uruzgan. Officials said that nine children were among those

:09:20. > :09:24.killed on that occasion. He said the Taliban were behind the attack.

:09:24. > :09:29.Military officials in Pakistan says Swiss couple who were held hostage

:09:29. > :09:32.for eight months by the Pakistani Taliban have been released. The

:09:32. > :09:36.Olivier David Och and Daniela Widmer were abducted at gunpoint as

:09:36. > :09:39.they travelled through Balochistan in south-western Pakistan. It is

:09:39. > :09:44.reported that they have been handed over to authorities in North

:09:44. > :09:49.Waziristan near the Afghan border. Time now to get a look at the

:09:49. > :09:53.business news with Rachel Horne. We are starting with South Korea.

:09:53. > :09:56.That is right, trade ties with China might be strained, but the

:09:56. > :10:00.United States relations with South Korea have rarely been stronger. A

:10:00. > :10:04.free-trade agreement comes into force today which could create more

:10:04. > :10:10.than 300,000 jobs in South Korea and boost economic growth over the

:10:10. > :10:15.next 10 years. But not everyone is happy with the deal.

:10:16. > :10:19.After six years of negotiating, ratifying and protesting, South

:10:19. > :10:24.Korea's free trade agreement with the US has arrived. Starting today,

:10:24. > :10:29.American products here should start to look a bit cheaper, and in five

:10:29. > :10:33.years' time 95% of Trade should be tariff-free.

:10:33. > :10:37.For lovers of American brands here in the main shopping district in

:10:37. > :10:40.Seoul, how real will the savings be? One survey in a local newspaper

:10:40. > :10:45.found that while some companies were planning on importing more

:10:45. > :10:50.American products, only a quarter were come to pass on the full

:10:50. > :10:55.reductions to their customers. But for Korea, the real value of the

:10:55. > :10:58.deal lies in access to customers in the US. South Korea's share of the

:10:58. > :11:05.US market has fallen, something the trade minister said he hoped the

:11:05. > :11:11.deal would of said. Given the current eurozone crisis, the timing

:11:11. > :11:16.of the agreement could not be any better. With this FTA, I have every

:11:16. > :11:21.confidence that the trade sector will pick up and the business

:11:21. > :11:27.community in both Korea and the US will enjoy the benefits of this

:11:27. > :11:31.win-win agreement. But not everyone sees things that way. Farmers have

:11:31. > :11:35.staged regular protests, saying the American agreement will damage

:11:35. > :11:38.Korean agriculture by welcoming more competitive American imports.

:11:38. > :11:42.And opposition parties have said they will try to block the deal if

:11:42. > :11:48.they win elections this year. The US agreement may be done, but there

:11:48. > :11:51.is still plenty of negotiating to do at home.

:11:51. > :11:55.Another trade row seems close to conclusion. The US says it will

:11:55. > :12:00.lift import duties on some orange juice produced in Brazil. The

:12:00. > :12:03.Latin-American country is the world's biggest producer,

:12:03. > :12:06.accounting for 85% of export, but influential citrus farmers in

:12:06. > :12:11.Florida had claimed Brazil was hurting their industry by dumping

:12:11. > :12:15.artificially cheap juice on the market.

:12:15. > :12:18.Now, recovery and eurozone are two words rarely heard together, but

:12:18. > :12:23.today one group of accountants has suggested there is light at the end

:12:23. > :12:29.of the tunnel for the region. Then stand young's euros on spring

:12:29. > :12:35.forecast is predicting a strong return to growth in 2013 as long as

:12:35. > :12:39.politicians keep up momentum with regard to fiscal policy. Marie

:12:39. > :12:43.Diron is a senior adviser to the forecast. How confident is she that

:12:43. > :12:49.the currency will survive? Well, the thing that is the most likely

:12:49. > :12:52.scenario, certainly this sense that an economic disaster was upon us at

:12:52. > :12:58.the end of last year seems to have diminished. Now we have a structure

:12:58. > :13:02.in place for Greece, and it will be a long road ahead. Nothing is a

:13:02. > :13:06.given, and there is still a risk that a country of several countries

:13:06. > :13:10.could exit the eurozone, but the impact would be disastrous on the

:13:10. > :13:13.economy, and we think that policy makers are aware of these risks and

:13:13. > :13:18.will do everything to keep the eurozone together.

:13:23. > :13:28.will be slash this year. The German carrier reported a $13 million loss

:13:28. > :13:31.for the last three months of 2011. It is already selling British

:14:00. > :14:05.Fitch ratings had warned that the trouble I rating could come under

:14:05. > :14:10.scrutiny a few months ago. When you look at the Al club for the UK, you

:14:10. > :14:15.see that it will become the most indebted of the AAA rated

:17:09. > :17:12.reports it's not an easy law for the residents to obey. The Falciano

:17:12. > :17:16.del Massico cemetery cannot accommodate any more pips Paul. It

:17:16. > :17:21.can't expand, either, because the residents are feuding with the

:17:21. > :17:26.neighbouring town which owns the burial site -- more people. So the

:17:26. > :17:30.mayor has felt compelled to issue an almighty edict, stating it is

:18:00. > :18:07.disobeyed. It's not clear from which burial ground they are now

:18:07. > :18:11.experiencing the afterlife. I think people have realised it has been a

:18:11. > :18:17.challenge because we don't have the power to limit death. Only our Lord

:18:17. > :18:22.has it. The residents are reportedly not taking the law too

:18:22. > :18:32.seriously. Arguably, they have little choice. The mayor has not

:21:21. > :21:26.left. They say many thousands more in the hills, a couple of

:21:26. > :21:30.kilometres behind me, are waiting to make their way across. It's very

:21:30. > :21:36.dangerous for them because they are fired at by Syrian troops before

:21:36. > :21:46.they reach the border. 1,000 a day is a very high number. We expect

:21:46. > :21:47.

:21:47. > :21:49.those numbers to continue in the next few days.

:21:49. > :21:52.Investigations are continuing in Switzerland into the cause of the

:21:52. > :21:55.fatal bus crash on Tuesday night which left 28 people dead,

:21:55. > :21:58.including 22 children. The victims were on their way back to two

:21:58. > :22:01.schools in Belgium after a skiing holiday. One possible explanation

:22:01. > :22:05.has been ruled out. The authorities say the coach was not speeding at

:22:05. > :22:10.the time of the accident. Nine lives have been lost here and a

:22:10. > :22:14.teacher. Many tributes on the wall behind me are to him and a teaching

:22:15. > :22:19.assistant. As I speak, inside the small primary school is a meeting

:22:19. > :22:25.going on, parents, teachers, the local priest, a police, the Red

:22:26. > :22:30.Cross, trying to decide what to do about funerals, and memorials.

:22:30. > :22:36.Bodies being brought back and the injured coming back? How do they

:22:36. > :22:40.welcome them? How much should children be protected from the

:22:40. > :22:47.media? Lots of difficult questions being considered right now. Let me

:22:47. > :22:50.show you some of the difficult front pages. This was a special

:22:50. > :22:58.edition of one of the Flemish papers that came onto the streets

:22:58. > :23:01.last night. At land in the sorrow. Also this is the scene from early

:23:01. > :23:07.this morning, children bringing flowers and lighting candles to

:23:07. > :23:14.show what they feel about losing so many. Here, those who are dead,

:23:14. > :23:17.those who are injured. A lot of pictures obviously from the website,

:23:17. > :23:22.the children set up because they were so excited about their skiing

:23:22. > :23:27.trip. Children in woolly hats and goggles, waiting to come home and

:23:27. > :23:36.share their stories. Another picture of from the website. 22

:23:36. > :23:39.children will not be coming home. A state of shock fall this school and

:23:39. > :23:44.for Belgium as a whole. We will bring you the latest from

:23:44. > :23:50.Switzerland as well about the investigation about what happened

:23:50. > :23:54.there from Chris Morris, but his report contains flash photography.

:23:54. > :23:58.The mangled remains of the bus which crashed into a wall are now

:23:58. > :24:01.sitting inside a police warehouse next to the motorway where the

:24:01. > :24:06.fatal accident happened. There's no indication it was travelling too

:24:06. > :24:10.fast. Or there was anything wrong with the road surface but the

:24:10. > :24:18.impact of the crash was so severe the front of the bus was ripped

:24:18. > :24:23.apart causing multiple debts and many injuries. That death. Many

:24:23. > :24:29.parents are in Switzerland to visit either seriously injured children

:24:29. > :24:33.in hospital or to identify the dead in a local mortuary. Belgium has

:24:33. > :24:43.announced it will soon hold a day of national mourning. Most of those

:24:43. > :24:44.

:24:44. > :24:48.killed in the crash were around 12 years old. When you lose an adult,

:24:48. > :24:55.it is dramatic, but when you lose a child, there are no words. There

:24:55. > :25:01.are no words because the pain is so personal and intense. We would so

:25:01. > :25:06.much like to ease the pain a child is suffering in hospital. Or for

:25:06. > :25:10.one who has perished. There are no words. The the president of

:25:10. > :25:20.Switzerland has said her country will do everything it can to help

:25:20. > :25:21.

:25:21. > :25:24.the injured and the bereaved. Researchers have discovered human

:25:24. > :25:27.skulls and bones from southern China dating back more than 11,000

:25:27. > :25:32.years which were of people that looked look quite different to us.

:25:44. > :25:48.might be a completely new species of human which involved in Asia. --

:25:48. > :25:55.evolved. Their skulls were found in southern China. They should look

:25:55. > :26:00.like modern human skills but they don't. This is 100,000 years old

:26:00. > :26:05.and you can see it as primitive features like this brow ridge of

:26:05. > :26:08.four for this one is 30,000 years old and you can see it looks more

:26:08. > :26:13.modern. The new discoveries from China date from just 11,000 years

:26:13. > :26:20.ago, so you would expect them to look even more modern but instead,

:26:20. > :26:25.they look more primitive, more like this than this. This is from...

:26:25. > :26:29.researchers say these people are a completely new species of human a

:26:29. > :26:32.but scientists at the Natural History Museum in London believe

:26:32. > :26:38.that they have too many features similar to ours to be considered a

:26:38. > :26:42.separate species. Just time to tell you we are getting word from the
