:01:18. > :01:25.Transportation Minister on day 13 since flight MH370 simply vanished.
:01:26. > :01:28.Two large pieces of possible debris have been spotted by satellites,
:01:29. > :01:33.just beyond the southern-most tip, in the massive operation to find the
:01:34. > :01:35.Malaysian airlines plane. Here are the images from the Australian
:01:36. > :01:39.Maritime Agency. They were taken four days ago. It has taken that
:01:40. > :01:42.long to process vast amounts of data. One piece of debris is
:01:43. > :01:48.described as 25 metres long. The other is five metres. Both appear to
:01:49. > :01:50.be awash with water. They were spotted in the Southern Ocean,
:01:51. > :02:00.nearly 2,300 kilometres south west of Perth. It's at the southern end
:02:01. > :02:03.of one of the two search arcs, defined by hourly satellite
:02:04. > :02:08."handshakes" with the plane while it was in the air. This is a remote and
:02:09. > :02:14.deep area of ocean, with routinely high winds and strong currents, four
:02:15. > :02:21.hours' flying time from Perth. Mike Wooldridge reports.
:02:22. > :02:25.This is the satellite imagery which has provided the potential
:02:26. > :02:29.breakthrough at last in the search for the airliner. Indistinct objects
:02:30. > :02:34.bobbing up and down in the water, won up to 24 metres long, the other
:02:35. > :02:38.around five metres long. Search aircraft are beginning the
:02:39. > :02:42.challenging task in this remote location of verifying whether they
:02:43. > :02:47.are parts of the missing plane. Australia, New Zealand and US
:02:48. > :02:51.Maritime claims are involved, ships are on their way. The Malaysia and
:02:52. > :02:55.authorities are balancing the significance of this with their
:02:56. > :03:07.anxiety to avoid giving. Hope to the waiting relatives. The one piece of
:03:08. > :03:14.information we want most is the location of the airliner. We have a
:03:15. > :03:21.credible lead but much work needs to be done. This work will continue. If
:03:22. > :03:25.the airliner has finally been located, experts foresee one of the
:03:26. > :03:31.most difficult recovery operations ever undertaken. You are talking
:03:32. > :03:36.about the great Southern Ocean, very wild seas, and you are talking about
:03:37. > :03:40.a depth of about 10,000 feet. So, it is going to be one of the most
:03:41. > :03:46.difficult recoveries of an aeroplane, if that is where it is.
:03:47. > :03:53.Malaysia says now the huge international search along both
:03:54. > :03:59.areas are continuing. In terms of what happened on board the flight,
:04:00. > :04:02.the minister was asked whether some kind of catastrophic event, a
:04:03. > :04:15.failure of the aircraft, was been ruled out? It cannot be ruled out.
:04:16. > :04:22.There is an urgency to find the black box, we are pursuing that line
:04:23. > :04:32.of investigation. We want to confirm this debris and attempts are being
:04:33. > :04:37.made to go to that location. Many questions are yet to be answered but
:04:38. > :04:45.the mystery of this new sighting deep in the Southern Indian Ocean
:04:46. > :04:48.may be resolved. Captain Bimal Sharma's sister
:04:49. > :04:50.Chandrika is one of the missing passengers from flight MH370. He
:04:51. > :04:57.spoke to us about the latest development of the search efforts.
:04:58. > :05:06.This area has got a very heavy concentration of garbage, due to
:05:07. > :05:11.tides, and winds. Lots of plastic, floating garbage. I have sailed
:05:12. > :05:17.through this area several times, the area they are indicated. I feel they
:05:18. > :05:21.are saying they will go down to this area, from a satellite image. I do
:05:22. > :05:32.not know what they can get out of that. Captain, tell us about your
:05:33. > :05:45.sister, and what she was doing on the flight, and her plans? My sister
:05:46. > :05:52.was travelling to go to Mongolia, for a food and agricultural
:05:53. > :05:57.conference over there. She took a flight to Kuala Lumpur. She
:05:58. > :06:04.changed, and this is what happened to the flight. That is why I am
:06:05. > :06:13.here. What is her profession, what are her skills which meant she was
:06:14. > :06:17.going to Mongolia? She had done her Masters in social work from a
:06:18. > :06:25.reputed Institute in India. And then she had done her doctorate PhD in
:06:26. > :06:32.the same subject. She was working for the international fishermen, the
:06:33. > :06:37.cause of international fishermen. She was very involved for the last
:06:38. > :06:41.15 years in that, the plight of international fishermen.
:06:42. > :06:48.Did she flight to a lot of conferences, moving around the
:06:49. > :06:55.world, given there was so much mobility? Yes. She used to fly
:06:56. > :07:06.around, she was out of the country about 15 days a month. What is your
:07:07. > :07:10.reflection of the way the airline and the Malaysia authorities have
:07:11. > :07:16.been in touch with you, and how much they have kept you up to date, as
:07:17. > :07:22.one of just over 200 members of families around the world?
:07:23. > :07:28.They have kept the family up to date in the sense we should not believe
:07:29. > :07:34.anybody, not the press, news channels, not anybody. They said, we
:07:35. > :07:40.will update you as and when. Please do not believe any of them, that is
:07:41. > :07:43.what they have been saying. And, we will call you. Have you been
:07:44. > :07:48.believing them with their evening briefings?
:07:49. > :07:53.I have been believing them, but picking up bits and pieces from
:07:54. > :07:57.everywhere. Because I want to believe that she is still alive, and
:07:58. > :08:09.she will be home for her birthday which is on the 30th of March.
:08:10. > :08:15.The BBC's Jennifer Pak is in Kuala Lumpur.
:08:16. > :08:21.She gave me the latest on how this word, credible, is now being seen,
:08:22. > :08:26.in Malaysia. Certainly, the journalists here are
:08:27. > :08:30.very excited. We haven't had much new information since the
:08:31. > :08:34.authorities announced they believe the flight could have been
:08:35. > :08:38.hijacked, it was deliberately diverted by somebody on board. There
:08:39. > :08:42.are defined a whole new search area, saying they had been searching
:08:43. > :08:47.in the wrong area. This is the first time we have heard of any sighting
:08:48. > :08:52.of potential debris. We have to exercise caution. The reason it is
:08:53. > :08:59.credible because it fits into what authorities now have information on,
:09:00. > :09:04.from Indonesia down to the Indian Ocean, and looking into the Northern
:09:05. > :09:09.Quarter, stretching from northern Thailand up to Central Asia. They
:09:10. > :09:15.say that search is still ongoing, but trickier, simply because 11
:09:16. > :09:19.countries have had to give diplomatic clearances for military
:09:20. > :09:24.aircraft around the world to search. The search effort is focused on the
:09:25. > :09:27.southern quarter. Australians are saying there is potential this
:09:28. > :09:33.debris could be related to the aircraft. But they say they have to
:09:34. > :09:36.confirm. You can only feel for the family members listening to this
:09:37. > :09:42.analysis, this speculation about the debris. They have been waiting for
:09:43. > :09:47.so long to hear any kind of concrete information, and to make sense why
:09:48. > :09:50.this has happened in the first place.
:09:51. > :09:57.I was very struck by what the acting Transportation Minister said, when
:09:58. > :10:00.the events of yesterday, with two members of a Chinese family
:10:01. > :10:06.protesting, were taken away forcibly from outside the media centre where
:10:07. > :10:10.briefings were. He said, I regret the way they were treated. Is there
:10:11. > :10:16.any indication of a different approach to those who are close to
:10:17. > :10:21.those still missing? At this point in time, all family
:10:22. > :10:25.members have been kept away from journalists. They flew in family
:10:26. > :10:30.members, mostly from China, half the passengers on board come from China.
:10:31. > :10:35.They were set up in different hotels, separated from the media.
:10:36. > :10:40.Each family had been assigned a so-called caregiver. In colleagues
:10:41. > :10:45.have been blocked from trying to speak to families who are willing to
:10:46. > :10:49.speak to the media. That is how you had this scene yesterday, from ones
:10:50. > :10:55.who felt they were not been briefed properly, or treated properly. In
:10:56. > :10:58.the Asian context, when they are not getting senior officials, they feel
:10:59. > :11:04.they are not getting the attention they want. It is day 13, and not
:11:05. > :11:10.getting any further information, even though officials have insisted
:11:11. > :11:12.they had nothing to hide. They have not much more concrete information.
:11:13. > :11:18.This is agonising for family members. Does it mean they will
:11:19. > :11:24.switch tactics and allow family to talk to the media? It is unclear.
:11:25. > :11:30.Malaysia officials are used to controlling the message.
:11:31. > :11:33.Reports from Kiev say that the commander of the Ukrainian Navy has
:11:34. > :11:36.been released. Admiral Serhiy Haiduk was detained in Crimea on Wednesday
:11:37. > :11:39.when masked men forced their way into Ukraine's naval headquarters in
:11:40. > :11:42.Sevastopol. Meanwhile, the UN Secretary General Ban Ki Moon is due
:11:43. > :11:43.to hold talks in Moscow with Russia's President Our correspondent
:11:44. > :11:56.Richard Galpin is in Moscow. First of all, is this a hastily
:11:57. > :12:02.arranged meeting? What is the message that President Putin will
:12:03. > :12:05.have for the Secretary General? This is a hastily arranged meeting, no
:12:06. > :12:11.indication this is something arranged a long time ago.
:12:12. > :12:16.A specific mission by the Secretary General. He is coming to Russia,
:12:17. > :12:22.then going to Ukraine tomorrow. It seems to be an attempt to mediate,
:12:23. > :12:28.with the specific goal of trying to persuade the authorities in Moscow
:12:29. > :12:34.and in Kiev to begin formal, direct negotiations, so they can reduce the
:12:35. > :12:38.tension between the sides and reach some kind of diplomatic settlement,
:12:39. > :12:45.a peaceable solution to this ongoing crisis. The Secretary General, his
:12:46. > :12:48.spokesman, has said the Secretary General believes there is still room
:12:49. > :12:53.for peaceful settlement through negotiation. Given the Russian
:12:54. > :13:01.record on the Security Council over Syria, do you believe President
:13:02. > :13:06.Putin will give more than polite attention to the Secretary General?
:13:07. > :13:13.No, personally, I do not think so. Russia is set on a clear course,
:13:14. > :13:19.directed by Vladimir Putin. They have succeeded in and sing the
:13:20. > :13:23.Crimea. Effectively that is a given. The question is whether that is
:13:24. > :13:29.enough for the Kremlin to achieve its overall strategic goal which is,
:13:30. > :13:33.I believe, to undermine and roll back the Ukrainian revolution, and
:13:34. > :13:39.make sure the government in Kiev is compliant with what Russia wants.
:13:40. > :13:43.So, that is the question. Is taking Crimea going to be enough for
:13:44. > :13:48.Russia, or will there be further military action? At the moment,
:13:49. > :13:51.there is any sign as far as we can see from here, that Russia is
:13:52. > :13:58.planning further military intervention. It seems to be the
:13:59. > :14:01.opposite, at least, publicly, with Putin saying he does not want to
:14:02. > :14:08.divide Ukraine. His spokesperson saying similar things. They are
:14:09. > :14:13.still saying, if necessary, if the ethnic Russian population in Ukraine
:14:14. > :14:17.is not protected by the government in Kiev, then, as the spokesman
:14:18. > :14:28.said, then Russia would have to react.
:14:29. > :14:36.In India, four men have been found guilty of the gang rape of a
:14:37. > :14:39.photojournalist. The attack in an abandoned textile mill made
:14:40. > :14:43.headlines around the world, coming just after the brutal gang rape and
:14:44. > :14:49.murder of a student on a bus in Delhi.
:14:50. > :14:53.This Court has witnessed what has perhaps been one of the quickest
:14:54. > :14:59.rape trials in India. It took less than seven months. In August 2013, a
:15:00. > :15:05.photojournalist on an assignment taking pictures in an abandoned
:15:06. > :15:10.textile mill was gang raped by five men. Four of those men have been
:15:11. > :15:14.found guilty by this Court. A fifth was juvenile, meaning users under 18
:15:15. > :15:21.when it has committed. He is being tried separately. Both sides will be
:15:22. > :15:25.able to present their arguments tomorrow before the court decides on
:15:26. > :15:28.the punishment. It could attract a maximum sentence of life
:15:29. > :15:34.imprisonment. The prosecution is saying they will see if there is any
:15:35. > :15:37.president by which these men could get harsher punishment. This speedy
:15:38. > :15:41.trial is perhaps the outcome of a new anti-rape law India passed last
:15:42. > :15:47.year. One thing it promised was quicker trials. Sometimes cases can
:15:48. > :15:51.go on the decades without an outcome. Even in the case of the
:15:52. > :15:56.Delhi student, we saw an outcome in nine months. But these were cases
:15:57. > :16:01.that made it to the headlines, had the media spotlight on them. The big
:16:02. > :16:07.challenge before the government of India and the judiciary will be too
:16:08. > :16:17.sure -- to ensure this speedy trial is replicated across the country.
:16:18. > :16:20.Still to come: American scientists discover a new species of dinosaur
:16:21. > :16:30.which could explain why they became extinct.
:16:31. > :16:34.How much water do you use everyday? The amount varies enormously. That
:16:35. > :16:39.depends wherein the world you live. Whether your country is in drought,
:16:40. > :16:43.as well. This Saturday is world water Day. People across the globe
:16:44. > :16:47.will be in courage to turn their taps off in order to increase
:16:48. > :16:53.awareness of the value of water which they normally have access to.
:16:54. > :16:59.For many, it would be easy. Our correspondence in Australia,
:17:00. > :17:07.Pakistan and Kenya will speak to us, but first we go to California.
:17:08. > :17:13.Drought has come to California. In a world of extremely -- increasingly
:17:14. > :17:18.extreme weather, the West is getting drier and the water is running out.
:17:19. > :17:23.Reservoirs across California are at just a fraction of their capacity.
:17:24. > :17:29.You can see the normal level of this reservoir. It is not just because of
:17:30. > :17:32.lack of rainfall, it is about politics and geography. California
:17:33. > :17:41.is now asking whether it is now using what little water it has in
:17:42. > :17:44.the wisest way. They pray for rain in these parts. This is

:19:02. > :19:06.Now, more on our top story - it's day 13 of the search efforts and we
:19:07. > :19:09.now have a "credible lead". Satellites have picked up images
:19:10. > :19:13.showing two large objects that could possibly be debris from the missing
:19:14. > :19:24.plane. They've been found just beyond the Southern most tip of the
:19:25. > :19:25.search operation. They are about 2300 kilometres from Perth in
:19:26. > :19:29.Western Australia. With me to discuss this is the BBC's
:19:30. > :19:37.Andy Moore. You've been doing a lot of digging as to how that plane came
:19:38. > :19:41.to be where it may have been found. Sources were telling me last night
:19:42. > :19:46.they were pretty sure the aircraft would be found in this approximate
:19:47. > :19:56.area. That was based on the signals coming from the satellite which were
:19:57. > :20:00.recorded at hourly intervals. They showed when the fuel ran out it was
:20:01. > :20:04.likely to be in the Southern Ocean, said they were pretty sure that
:20:05. > :20:11.there would be some kind of evidence in this area. It seems that is the
:20:12. > :20:20.case today. Let's just where that debris is at the moment. Here is the
:20:21. > :20:26.map, it is 304,000 square kilometres, over 2000 kilometres
:20:27. > :20:34.from Perth. It is a long way out in a hostile ocean. What are the
:20:35. > :20:44.chances of finding much more? Firstly, we need to find the debris
:20:45. > :20:47.field. Then we need to bind the impact point. It may have travelled
:20:48. > :20:56.a very long distance from the actual impact point. Authorities can use
:20:57. > :21:05.data of the probable cause of the aircraft. Let me show you and the
:21:06. > :21:09.viewers this, from the website of the Australian government. The
:21:10. > :21:16.Australian Maritime Safety Authority has produced this. These two lines
:21:17. > :21:21.coming down here, that is where the search is now underway. But the fact
:21:22. > :21:34.that there are two lines with this tag - possible routes - have the
:21:35. > :21:44.NTSB known more all along? It seems so. They have not said anything
:21:45. > :21:48.along the record -- other than the record but they clearly have a plot.
:21:49. > :21:56.Those two lines, according to Australians, are based on different
:21:57. > :22:01.as speeds of the aircraft. You can see there are three blocks. The
:22:02. > :22:06.first is the Australian search on day one. The second larger one is
:22:07. > :22:12.the search on day two. The third smaller one to the bottom and right
:22:13. > :22:15.is the search today. That is based on this satellite image showing some
:22:16. > :22:22.kind of debris outside the search area. If it is the plane, this is
:22:23. > :22:30.where it ran out of fuel after seven hours of flying? This was all
:22:31. > :22:38.prompted from the handshakes the plane was giving out every hour.
:22:39. > :22:45.That seems to be the case. Nobody is saying that on the record. They are
:22:46. > :22:48.all leaving it to the Malaysians to give the public information, and the
:22:49. > :22:52.Malaysians are not putting in the public domain information that the
:22:53. > :22:59.search authorities are clearly working on. I have to say, it is
:23:00. > :23:10.only credible evidence it may be debris. We don't know at the moment,
:23:11. > :23:14.at least not in the public space. 11 people have been killed by
:23:15. > :23:17.suicide bombers in an attack on a police station in Afghanistan. The
:23:18. > :23:20.attack was in the eastern city of Jalalabad early on Thursday morning.
:23:21. > :23:23.More than 20 others were injured. Suicide bombers stormed the station
:23:24. > :23:30.in the city centre, close to the office of the governor of Ningarhar
:23:31. > :23:34.province. At least nine people have been
:23:35. > :23:36.killed in a train crash in Southern Turkey. Reports suggest that the
:23:37. > :23:40.train crashed into a minibus carrying workers at a level crossing
:23:41. > :23:43.in Mersin. The train was heading towards the city of Adana 100
:23:44. > :23:45.kilometres away. They've nicknamed it "the chicken
:23:46. > :23:48.from hell". Scientists at Washington's Natural History Museum
:23:49. > :23:51.say they've identified a brand new species of dinosaur. It looks like a
:23:52. > :23:56.cross between an Ostrich and a lizard. Jane O'Brien has been
:23:57. > :24:07.speaking to the museum's curator, Hans Sues.
:24:08. > :24:12.What do we have here? This is a cast of the reconstructed skull of a new
:24:13. > :24:17.dinosaur. It is noteworthy for a number of features. It has this
:24:18. > :24:22.strange bony crest, it has a beak rather than any kind of teeth, and a
:24:23. > :24:29.really peculiar jaw joint. This growth on the lower jaw, there are
:24:30. > :24:34.bridges that it in so it can slide back and forth to cut up vegetation
:24:35. > :24:42.and small animals, whatever it ate. So it did not have teeth. That is
:24:43. > :24:51.right. You see this really sharp crest of the bone, you can see these
:24:52. > :24:57.groups. So how big would this have been? This creature reached a length
:24:58. > :25:06.of 3.5 metres and stood 1.5 metres tall. Why is it so important? Based
:25:07. > :25:10.on these three partial skeletons, it is the first time we have gotten an
