That's all from the BBC News at One
- so it's goodbye from me - | 0:00:00 | 0:00:13 | |
Welcome to BBC London News.
I'm Charlotte Franks. | 0:00:13 | 0:00:16 | |
Ten years after the murder
of a Norwegian student in central | 0:00:16 | 0:00:20 | |
London, detectives are urging
the man wanted for her death | 0:00:20 | 0:00:23 | |
to return to the UK. | 0:00:23 | 0:00:25 | |
Martine Vik Magnussen, who was 23,
was attacked after a night out | 0:00:25 | 0:00:29 | |
with friends in 2008. | 0:00:29 | 0:00:35 | |
The only suspect in the case,
Farouk Abdulhak, fled | 0:00:35 | 0:00:37 | |
to the Yemen within hours
of Martine's disappearance. | 0:00:37 | 0:00:39 | |
Carrie Davis reports. | 0:00:39 | 0:00:48 | |
Laughing and smiling, recording a
message for her friend. This is | 0:00:48 | 0:00:51 | |
Martine Vik Magnussen, a Norwegian
business student. She was studying | 0:00:51 | 0:00:57 | |
in London when she was murdered ten
years ago. She had been partying at | 0:00:57 | 0:01:00 | |
a nightclub. She left with a
classmate, Farouk Abdulhak. This | 0:01:00 | 0:01:08 | |
CCTV footage shows them leaving
together. Her body was discovered | 0:01:08 | 0:01:11 | |
the day after in the basement of a
block of flats. She had been raped | 0:01:11 | 0:01:16 | |
and strangled. Her body had been
partially bubbled -- covered by | 0:01:16 | 0:01:20 | |
rubble. Mr Rabbo had left the
country the same day. He is believed | 0:01:20 | 0:01:24 | |
to be in Yemen. Although he protests
his innocence, he has refused to | 0:01:24 | 0:01:30 | |
return to the UK. Today Mairtin
O'Muilleoir's father spoke directly | 0:01:30 | 0:01:34 | |
to him. Once my family -- once my
family has continued to suffer the | 0:01:34 | 0:01:42 | |
greatest loss in family can suffer,
I want you to know that we continue | 0:01:42 | 0:01:46 | |
to pursue justice for Mairtin
O'Muilleoir. We want you to know | 0:01:46 | 0:01:52 | |
that this case will never go away
until justice has prevailed. | 0:01:52 | 0:01:57 | |
Police have urged Farouk Abdulhak to
come forward. Ten years on, the | 0:01:57 | 0:02:07 | |
family of Martine Vik Magnussen
continue to fight for justice. | 0:02:07 | 0:02:09 | |
A vet with two practices
in West London has been accused | 0:02:09 | 0:02:11 | |
of helping a gang sell
thousands of illegally bred | 0:02:11 | 0:02:15 | |
sick and dying puppies,
to buyers who thought the animals | 0:02:15 | 0:02:17 | |
were home-reared and healthy. | 0:02:17 | 0:02:18 | |
Vet Daniel Doherty denies conspiring
with the gang by providing | 0:02:18 | 0:02:21 | |
vaccination certificates,
even though he knew | 0:02:21 | 0:02:24 | |
buyers were being duped. | 0:02:24 | 0:02:25 | |
Yvonne Hall reports
from Isleworth Crown Court. | 0:02:25 | 0:02:34 | |
The RSPCA has brought the case
against Daniel Doherty at Isleworth | 0:02:34 | 0:02:39 | |
Crown Court. Barrister Hazel Stevens
said this morning the background to | 0:02:39 | 0:02:42 | |
the case involved a gang of eight
men and women importing puppies into | 0:02:42 | 0:02:47 | |
the UK, which had been illegally
bred mainly in Ireland and Eastern | 0:02:47 | 0:02:51 | |
Europe, and were often very sick.
The puppies were then advertised on | 0:02:51 | 0:02:57 | |
sites like commentary, pretending to
the public the animals were healthy | 0:02:57 | 0:03:01 | |
and had been homebred in the UK.
These puppies were often so sick | 0:03:01 | 0:03:04 | |
they died soon afterwards, and
complains to the RSPCA began to | 0:03:04 | 0:03:09 | |
mount. That Daniel Doherty, who runs
practices in Oxbridge and -- | 0:03:09 | 0:03:15 | |
Oxbridge and Hillingdon, is accused
of helping the gang deceive the | 0:03:15 | 0:03:20 | |
public by providing vaccination
certificates for more than 4000 | 0:03:20 | 0:03:23 | |
puppies. It is said he was paid
nearly £80,000. He denies conspiracy | 0:03:23 | 0:03:26 | |
to commit fraud. The trial is
expected to last three weeks. | 0:03:26 | 0:03:31 | |
Yvonne Hall reporting there. | 0:03:31 | 0:03:32 | |
A 14-year-old boy's
in hospital, after he was shot | 0:03:32 | 0:03:35 | |
near Seven Sisters station. | 0:03:35 | 0:03:37 | |
No-one's been arrested
following the incident just | 0:03:37 | 0:03:39 | |
after 11 o'clock last night. | 0:03:39 | 0:03:40 | |
Scotland Yard says the boy's
in a stable condition. | 0:03:40 | 0:03:45 | |
A group of squatters
who've taken over a building | 0:03:45 | 0:03:49 | |
in Xentral London are preparing
to go to court later, | 0:03:49 | 0:03:51 | |
to fight a possession order
from the landlord in a bid to stay. | 0:03:51 | 0:03:55 | |
The group, who have
named the office block | 0:03:55 | 0:03:57 | |
the Sofia Solidarity Centre,
claim the building has been empty | 0:03:57 | 0:04:00 | |
for several years, and they're
meeting a social need. | 0:04:00 | 0:04:03 | |
The Government says
it's investing £1 billion | 0:04:03 | 0:04:05 | |
to tackle rough sleeping. | 0:04:06 | 0:04:10 | |
Counter-terror police
are leading an investigation | 0:04:10 | 0:04:11 | |
into the "unexplained" death
of a Russian man in Kingston. | 0:04:11 | 0:04:16 | |
He is believed to be
businessman Nikolai Glushkov, | 0:04:16 | 0:04:18 | |
who claimed political asylum
in the UK after being | 0:04:18 | 0:04:20 | |
convicted of fraud. | 0:04:20 | 0:04:21 | |
The Metropolitan Police
said its specialist unit was looking | 0:04:21 | 0:04:24 | |
at his cause of death
"as a precaution". | 0:04:24 | 0:04:29 | |
A new research unit exploring why
some babies are born | 0:04:29 | 0:04:33 | |
prematurely, is being set up
at Imperial College London. | 0:04:33 | 0:04:35 | |
The scientists will be
in partnership with three | 0:04:35 | 0:04:39 | |
London hospitals -
Chelsea and Westminster, | 0:04:39 | 0:04:41 | |
St Mary's and Queen Charlotte -
where 5000 babies are born | 0:04:41 | 0:04:44 | |
prematurely every year.
Sarah Harris reports. | 0:04:44 | 0:04:54 | |
Sincerely appreciate every second
she can spend with her six-year-old | 0:04:57 | 0:05:01 | |
daughter. Before she was born, she
had gone through 16 miscarriages, | 0:05:01 | 0:05:05 | |
including a 20 week pregnancy. So
when her precious daughter came at | 0:05:05 | 0:05:10 | |
24 weeks, she feared she would die
as well. Yes, that was my first | 0:05:10 | 0:05:15 | |
thought. It was a difficult
situation. I keep praying to God. | 0:05:15 | 0:05:20 | |
When the baby came out at 24 weeks,
there was torment in my head. I was | 0:05:20 | 0:05:25 | |
thinking, oh my God, is the baby
going to make it? It was really a | 0:05:25 | 0:05:30 | |
tough time for me. Thousands of
babies are born nearly every year | 0:05:30 | 0:05:35 | |
across the capital. Many experienced
health problems and learning | 0:05:35 | 0:05:39 | |
difficulties. But now scientists
have secured funding to help find | 0:05:39 | 0:05:42 | |
out why and do something about it. I
would say there are two reasons. One | 0:05:42 | 0:05:50 | |
is the leading expertise we have in
London. Secondly, there may be an | 0:05:50 | 0:05:56 | |
interplay between where a person
comes from, genetic factors, the | 0:05:56 | 0:06:00 | |
microbes that live in her body.
London is a perfect place to study | 0:06:00 | 0:06:05 | |
that. The work we are going to do
has come from finding is that there | 0:06:05 | 0:06:11 | |
is a link between the bacteria that
live in the reproductive tract, and | 0:06:11 | 0:06:14 | |
a risk of preterm birth. Not
everybody who has these normal -- | 0:06:14 | 0:06:20 | |
abnormal bacteria goes into preterm
labour. The question is, why do some | 0:06:20 | 0:06:24 | |
people respond and others do not?
Piniella is thriving and happy | 0:06:24 | 0:06:33 | |
despite her early start. Researchers
want to make sure that becomes the | 0:06:33 | 0:06:38 | |
expected outcome for the majority of
premature babies across the capital. | 0:06:38 | 0:06:42 | |
The South Bank's famous
Under Croft skate park | 0:06:42 | 0:06:45 | |
is to be extended, after being
awarded hundreds of thousands | 0:06:45 | 0:06:49 | |
of pounds from City Hall. | 0:06:49 | 0:06:50 | |
Money will also be spent
on a new creative space | 0:06:50 | 0:06:54 | |
in the Southbank Centre,
which owns the area where skaters | 0:06:54 | 0:06:56 | |
have gathered for decades. | 0:06:57 | 0:06:58 | |
But the cash will only be
released - if campaigners | 0:06:58 | 0:07:01 | |
can match the £700,000
offered by the mayor. | 0:07:01 | 0:07:09 | |
South bank is one of the most iconic
spots in London. It is definitely | 0:07:09 | 0:07:13 | |
one of the most iconic skateboarding
spot in the world. It is one of the | 0:07:13 | 0:07:17 | |
oldest and most used in the world.
Built in 1967, and first used by | 0:07:17 | 0:07:23 | |
skaters in 1973. We have been
offered a match funding grant of | 0:07:23 | 0:07:29 | |
£700,000, which means we have to
raise £700,000 to be given the | 0:07:29 | 0:07:33 | |
ground. It is a real incentive to
get on board with the project, but | 0:07:33 | 0:07:38 | |
it does mean we have a lot more to
do. | 0:07:38 | 0:07:41 | |
Now the weather with Kate Kinsella. | 0:07:41 | 0:07:44 | |
Now the weather with Kate Kinsella. | 0:07:44 | 0:07:47 | |
Good afternoon. It has been feeling
more like spring today. Quite a | 0:07:47 | 0:07:51 | |
chilly start this morning. A
beautiful Sunrise down on the River | 0:07:51 | 0:07:54 | |
Thames. A sunny day in all. Quite
hazy sunshine. I tired restricting | 0:07:54 | 0:08:01 | |
sunshine. A lovely afternoon. A
brisk south-easterly wind is | 0:08:01 | 0:08:06 | |
developing. A perfect afternoon
forgetting the washing on the line. | 0:08:06 | 0:08:13 | |
Temperatures remain unaffected. 15
Celsius. Overnight, clear at first | 0:08:13 | 0:08:18 | |
before cloud bruising from the
south-west. Heavy and persistent | 0:08:18 | 0:08:21 | |
rain. Wet and windy by dawn tomorrow
morning. Temperatures overnight | 0:08:21 | 0:08:27 | |
between six and eight Celsius. A wet
start to Thursday. The rain moving | 0:08:27 | 0:08:32 | |
north during the day. Showers in the
afternoon. A bit brighter later. | 0:08:32 | 0:08:37 | |
Temperatures not too bad for
Thursday at 13 Celsius. The next | 0:08:37 | 0:08:42 | |
couple of days remain reasonably
mild. As we head towards Friday, we | 0:08:42 | 0:08:46 | |
start to lose this milder air. But
gradually that this appears to be | 0:08:46 | 0:08:51 | |
replaced by colder air coming in on
quite a strong easterly wind. You | 0:08:51 | 0:08:57 | |
will notice perhaps some snow
showers are affecting some of us, | 0:08:57 | 0:09:01 | |
particularly towards the south of
London, maybe towards the North as | 0:09:01 | 0:09:05 | |
well. Not too many around but a
dramatic change in temperature as we | 0:09:05 | 0:09:09 | |
head into Saturday and Sunday. Two
Celsius by the time we get to | 0:09:09 | 0:09:13 | |
Sunday. The wind will make feel
colder. | 0:09:13 | 0:09:15 | |
That's about it from me. | 0:09:15 | 0:09:16 | |
Asad Ahmad.
will be here with our | 0:09:16 | 0:09:18 | |
6:30 evening programme. | 0:09:18 | 0:09:19 | |
But for now, from us all,
a very good afternoon. | 0:09:19 | 0:09:24 |
