Police investigating the murder of four people in south-eastern France

say they have found a four-year-old girl alive hiding beneath the

bodies of her family. Bill Clinton tells the Democratic

National Convention that Barack Obama is a vote for economic

recovery. Julius Malema has renewed his call

for the South African miners to withdraw their labour until wage

demands have been met. Workers must refuse to sell their labour to

capital. Enough is enough and less capital is prepared to pay enough

living wages. Welcome to BBC World News. Also in this programme: Time

to deliver, pressure mounts on the European Central Bank to present a

solution to the euro-zone crisis. And the European Commission has

launched an anti-dumping probe into Chinese solar panel imports, upping

the ante in a major trade dispute. A four-year-old girl has been found

alive, hiding under the bodies of three adults thought to be British

tourists shot dead in a car in south eastern France. The bodies

are believed to be those of the girl's parents and grandmother. The

incident occurred near the popular tourist destinations of Lake Annecy.

A cyclist was also found dead, and a young girl was found in a

critical condition. Late last night an astonishing

discovery, a four-year-old girl found alive under dead bodies

inside the BMW car, many hours after the murder scene was sealed

off. The girl is thought to be uninjured, but was taken to

hospital as a precaution. Three of the four murder victims are

reported to be British, a man and two women who are possibly related.

The other dead man, a cyclist, were found nearby along with a badly

injured seven year old girl. Detectives say this is a very

unusual investigation, and even more so because of the discovery of

the girl. TRANSLATION: Wants the criminal investigation technicians

arrived we were able to open the vehicle and it is at that stage

that we discovered the small child, aged approximately four years, who

nobody had seen because she had not been moving. She was without a

doubt terrorise, immobile, in the midst of the bodies. It is thought

the cyclist may have been killed because he witnessed the attack on

the people inside the car, but the motive for their murder is a

mystery. This is a remote woodland area popular with holidaymakers

weather are few crimes. British Consular staff are at the scene

working with the French authorities and the Foreign Office is expected

to make a statement later this morning.

Some breaking news, at least 39 people have been killed after a

boat carrying migrants sank off Turkey's West Coast according to

local officials. Some survivors are reported to have been able to have

swum ashore. Fortified escaped, but those who died are said to have

been trapped below deck. In a rousing speech popular former

President Bill Clinton has formally nominated President Obama as his

party's candidate for the White House in November. He delivered a

classic partisan attack against Republicans whom he said wanted a

winner-take-all Society and it will the Democratic National Convention

of Barack Obama had stopped the US economy from sliding into

depression at the beginning of his first term in office and would

create millions more jobs in the future. Our correspondent reports

from the convention in Charlotte, North Carolina.

The man Democrats called a big dog. Bill Clinton is more popular than

ever, here now to put forward the name Barack Obama for a free

election. I want to nominate a man who is cool on the outside... But

he burns for America on the inside. Now, are up we where we want to be

today? No. Is the President's satisfied? Of course not. But are

we better off than we were when he took office? Theirs is a wary

Alliance, but he praised the younger man for hiring his wife,

even after the bruising Democratic primaries four years ago and he

claimed this election has a stark choice. We will be deciding what

kind of country we want to live in. If you want a winner take all, you

are on your own society, you should support the Republican ticket. But

if you want a country of shared opportunities and shared

responsibility, we are all in this together society, you should vote

for Barack Obama. When it ended the nominee appeared, embracing the man

whose stardust he hopes to catch. Bill Clinton is the only living

president who can speak with authority about job creation,

economic growth and balanced budgets. For Barack Obama the

outlook is as unpredictable as the Carolina summer. It has forced

organisers to move his speech tonight from the 70,000 seater

football stadium into a smaller conference hall. In some ways

moving inside to a more modest venue might benefit a President who

is sometimes accused of being too showbiz, too much of the rock star

President. What voters are looking for right now is substance, a plan

to bring America back. In South Africa only a handful of

striking miners had returned to work at the Marikana platinum mine

despite a peace accord signed between the mining company Lonmin

and some of the unions. The more militant Association of Mineworkers

and Construction Union is refusing to sign up to the deal at the mine

where 34 strikers were shot dead by police last month. Our

correspondent in Marikana told me more. Lonmin signed this deal with

the Labor Department and the other unions and the main union, the

National Union of Mineworkers, but the more militant union that has

been described as Road, the Association of Mineworkers and

Construction Union, has not signed the deal after it complained about

being sidelined. But it said it is prepared to sign the deal, it is

not being hostile, but it wants to report back to its members and let

them know what the details of the peace accord entail. Later today

Julius Malema is expected to visit the miners in Marikana and has

already called on the workers to make the mind ungovernable. But he

said that did not mean he is calling for violence. People are

being sensational. It is simple. What do you mean by ungovernable? I

mean they must put down their tools. I am not calling for violence or

killing of any body. Workers must refuse to sell their labour to

capital. Enough is enough, and less capital is prepared to pay a living

wage. In terms of urging workers to be more vigilant and militant, the

fact is they will be destroying the assets of the very country for

which you have a vision to transform and rebuild. Let's ask

the question of when was this mine opened? What is this mine it doing

here in this community? When you are talking about building the

country, you are correct, but they are not doing that. Even when we

co-operate, we are 20 years into democracy, they are operating a

minor, they are making millions, the owners of Lonmin mines, the

chairman is in London. They are sitting there comfortably. Those

people are a stone's throw away from the mind and there is no water,

no electricity, no proper houses. There are no schools. What is the

solution? The solution is mine workers must be paid sufficiently

so they can do those things themselves. By somebody who has

been accused of fraud and corruption you seem to be very

relaxed. I have got nothing to be worried about. I am not corrupt, I

have never involved myself in any corruption. People who thought I

would be begging them up for my survive will never saw me coming to

knock on their doors and they ask themselves how does he survive?

They thought I was engaged in illegalities, I got money from

Zimbabwe, others say I am an imperialist agent and all that, but

I'm a legal citizen, I am a law- abiding. I have got bank accounts,

my bank accounts are opened for scrutiny by the state agencies. I

have got nothing to hide. We will soon find out how the European

Central Bank is going to help struggling euro-zone governments

keep their borrowing costs down. The expectation is that the bank

will return to buying the sovereign bonds of countries like Spain and

Italy, but there is resistance in Germany.

Everybody is willing chancellor Angela Merkel these days. And she

echoes out at this Bavarian beer festival. Opinion polls show her

popularity soaring because of her tough stance against more German

money, and the euro-zone Government is in trouble. The European Central

Bank has signalled it may do more to buy the debt of countries like

Spain, Italy and Greece. That is if it gets too expensive for their

governments to borrow it. Members of the German parliament fear this

would be like printing money. are very much against buying bonds

by the ECB. We think it should not do that because buying bonds is

nothing else but a sign we are going for inflation. In Germany the

central bank, the Bundesbank, echoes those concerns, but it is

out voted on the board of the European Central Bank and the ECB

does not need the permission of German at law makers. We need our

mandate. The ECB is ready to do whatever it takes to preserve the

euro. And, believe me, it will be enough. Here in the offices of the

Bundestag there is great unease about the policy of the European

Central Bank, but happily for chancellor Angela Merkel there will

not be a vote on the mattered. These people do not have the power

to block it. Because of German opposition, the ECB president may

have to limit the bank's intervention. I think he will

refrain from announcing a clear programme because this is something

that is politically much more difficult and it could bear a risk

that financial markets attack the EC be even more than they do now.

Chancellor Angela Merkel will find it hard to swallow the ECB are

letting the money printing presses roll with full speed. Spain is the

immediate problem. It may need to ask for more help. Whatever the ECB

does, the crisis has not gone away. Ara is here with the business. When

do we hear from the ECB? In an hour we hear what the ECB is doing with

interest rates. Normally there is no expectation of a cut given that

they are at a record low, but there are some financial experts who

believe a rate cut could be possible. 45 minutes after that we

get the press conference from Mario Draghi. That is the one we all

watch and wait for it where, if he is going to announce any particular

programme, buying bonds, that is when he will announce that. On that

subject, let's get more on all of this because Richard Maguire is

from rather bank and one of those waiting and watching very closely.

Good to have you with us. The markets are up, or oil prices are

up, the cost of borrowing for Spain and Italy is down, I guess we

cannot over exaggerate their huge expectation that Mario Draghi is

going to announce some type of rescue plan. Absolutely and

expectations are rising very high. The market is looking for rather a

detailed plans. We saw many elements of the plant leaked

yesterday, so the market has got a series of boxes to tick which it

will be looking at. They want to see whether Mario Draghi will

deliver on those particular expectations. Hopes are riding very

high and that leaves some scope for disappointment. Certainly he has

promised a lot and he's started that a month ago by saying I will

do whatever it takes to save the euro-zone, but there are still some

hurdles in the way of the ECB. I am talking about Germany. Only a few

days ago the German finance ministers said, hang on, do not

expect too much from the European Germany has been opposed to the

bond-buying plan, but do bear in mind, Germany was opposed to

earlier programmes where the ECB was buying the debt of Spain and

other poor European countries and they were unable to block the

programmes previously. So it is unlikely they can stand in the way

this time around it looks like the bund bank is on its own, it is out

on a limb. There is broad support for the bond purchasing plan, so

the plan will likely go ahead. Richard, to remind the viewers

around the world watching this, hearing us build the anticipation

up, that even if Mario Draghi does announce some debt-buying, bond-

buying programme today, whether it is limited or unlimited, this is

not the fix-all. This is a band-aid, a plaster, right? Can you hear me?

Yes. OK, let me ask you again to remind

the viewers around the world if Mario Draghi nouns what everyone is

hoping that the ECB buys up the European debt, that this is not a

fix-all, this is just a plaster? No, two times, he still did not hear.

We have to leave it there. Thank you very much Richard. That was Mr

McGuire from Rabobank. We lost the communications. I can answer my

question. It is not a fix-all, it just gives the eurozone crisis

breathing space so that the troubled economies can get their

financial house in order. That is what the aim of that is all about.

The European Union has launched an investigation in the Chinese solar

panel imports. It is a market worth $26.5 billion last year alone. If

found guilty, the Chinese manufactures could face anti-

dumping duties. Now the protests comes as it was found that they

were selling below their value. The Chinese say that they deeply regret

the EU decision. John Sudworth from the BBC, told us

more about the Chinese reaction. There has been talk of retaliation,

oaron, but at this stage, I think - - Aaron, but I think that the

response has been muted. This investigation has been a few months

in the pipeline. It is not a surprise that we are at this point.

The Chinese statement goes on to say that restricting Chinese

exports hurts the interests of Chinese and the European industries.

There is no doubt about it. However cheap the products are, the Chinese

solar panel manufactures are suffering at the moment. This is

partly because of the speed with which the industry has ramped up

over the last few years. As well as the falling demand in Europe

because of the financial crisis, of course. The companies in China are

haemorrhaging red ink like in Europe. It is unlikely, I think,

that the Chinese government will want to see anything to damage the

prospects of the producers further. That is why there is this talk of

retaliation, although no confirmation of what the Chinese'

next steps will be. It has been in the pipeline for

some time, but the German Chancellor, Angela Merkel, was in

Beijing, the second visit in six months. She seemed to soften the

choice of words. Correct me if I am wrong, I thought she was going

along the lines of wanting the issue resolved by talks not an

investigation? That is right, by compromise and dialogue. That does

appear to be a slight change of the position. It is a German solar

panel company leading the complaint, leading this to the European

Commission. Some say that this inherits the weakness in the

European position, that China can do deals with different capitals by

offering trade incentives to draw the leaders off. That Europe find

it then difficult it talk with a united voice. There are those in

Europe who support China's decision, who say that cheap Chinese solar

panels are a good thing from the consumers' point of view and

looking at the bigger picture, that every country is meant to be

getting down carbon emissions, perhaps some would argue that more

cheep Chinese solar panels would be welcome.

That is it for the business news. This is BBC World News. Still to

come: Vladimir Putin reaches new heights, but why has he taken to

the skys in a motorised hang glider? Bullfighting has been shown

live on Spanish public television for the first time in six years.

Such broadcasts were stopped under Spain's previous socialist

government, saying that the sport was too violent for children to

watch, but the ban has been lifted by the Spanish Prime Minister,

Mariano Rajoy. We have this report.

The supporters say it celebrates Spain's cultural heritage.

But critics insists it is -- insist it is outdated and cruel. Six years

ago bullfighting wag banned from RT vefplt, a decision made by the

previous socialist government, but in a mood, welcomed by enthusiasts,

bullfighting is back on state TV on a prime time slot.

TRANSLATION: I like it very much. Lately the Spanish customs are

forgotten. It is important for young people to once again see the

bulls. This is what we want. TRANSLATION: It seems good to me.

Very good indeed. It was about time that the T vefplt decided to

broadcast the main national fiesta. The decision was made by the prov

bullfighting Prime Minister, Mariano Rajoy. He is hoping to make

the sport a staip of Spanish TV once again, but the move has

angered animal rights campaigners. TRANSLATION: We see this as a

backward step. Not just from a social and ethical buev, but for

what it means for us to torture an animal, then to broadcast it too.

For now, this is a victory for those who follow the sport inside

the arena and on the television, but it seems unlikely that the

opponents will let this go unchallenged.

Thousands of mourners have been arriving at a South Korean resort

to pay respects to the Reverend Sun Myung Moon who died earlier in the

week. Reverend Sun Myung Moon founded the Unification Church

which claims millions of followers worldwide, they are known as

Moonies. He was criticised for making personal gains from his

business empire and for brainwashing young converts, but up

to 150,000 people are expected during the nine days of mourning

before the funeral next week. A special alter has been built for

the wake and the formal ceremony You are watching BBC World News.

The main story: A four -year-old British girl has been found alive

underneath the bodies of her family. Hourss after a gunman fired on the

bodies in the car in south-east France.

Now, the Paralympics and the men's T44 is to feature a re-match

between Oscar Pistorius and the man who beat him in the 200m final,

Alan Oliviera. Oscar Pistorius is considered the

genuine superstar of the Games, but when we he tasted defeat in the

Stadium the other night, it was a real shock, not least it seems to

Pistiorius himself. The man that they call the Blade Runner cried

foul about the length of Alan Oliviera's running blades. The

complaint was that he increased the length of his prosthetic lick legs,

making him taller, giving him a longer stride.

The length of the leg is a key factor to determine to get your

stride length and how long it will be. Therefore if you increase your

height if you are using prosthetic, you increase the stride length.

But an analysis has resealed that Alan Oliviera's stride was shorter

than that of Pistiorius'. Some say that increasing the length is not

necessarily to the athlete's advantage.

If you look at this length of the limbs here, and then you move the

central gravity from this position to that position, then the person

has to compensate for the extra forces created by the imbalance and

the unnatural position of the centre of gravity. Hence, it

requires a lot more compensation and then a lot more effort.

As the 100m approaches, there is a real sense of anticipation in the

Olympic Park. So what do people here make of the controversy?

was awkward. He sounded like a little child having a tantrum about

it, but he does have a point, but I think he went the wrong way about

it. It can't be that much of a difference. I think he must have

wanted it that little bit more, Alan Oliviera. I think that the

International Baccalaureate needs to look at the -- the Olympics

Committee has to look at the sizing of the -- of the blades. Vladimir

Putin, now he is taking to the skies. Vladimir Putin with his new

best friends, the seerbian crane. Preparing to go where no President

has gone before. For his latest action man stunt he

had stopped off at the remote Yamal peninsula on his way to the north.

The leader of the nation of 140 million people, he was trying to

persuade five rather reluctant cranes to fly south for the winter.

The Siberian crane is close to extinction, this group 47 born in

captivity, but the President did not fly the microlight aircraft

himself, an expert pilot sat behind him at all times during the flight.

The Russian public have seen Vladimir Putin boxing, swimming in

a Siberian river, and riding bear- chested on a horse. Despite the

waning opinion polls and the fact he is 60 next month, he clearly
