:00:00. > :00:22.Hello. In the programme ` gtilty of murdering this grandfather. These
:00:23. > :00:32.teenagers actions are descrhbed as merciless. An NHS report handed to
:00:33. > :00:36.us by a whistle`blower. Latdr in the programme, the latest weapon in the
:00:37. > :00:43.fight against landmines devdloped in the Cambridgeshire countryshde. And
:00:44. > :00:50.tributes in the world of racing to an inspirational woman. First
:00:51. > :00:56.tonight, the teenagers guilty of stabbing a grandfather to ddath on
:00:57. > :00:59.his own doorstep. Sharif Delirsay was attacked at his Bedfordshire
:01:00. > :01:05.home one night last May. Three teenagers had gone there intent on
:01:06. > :01:10.stealing gold and cash. Thex knocked on his door. An hour later Lr
:01:11. > :01:18.Demirsay was dead. Let's go live to Luton and Mike Cartwright, who was
:01:19. > :01:22.in court today. Officers were having to turn people
:01:23. > :01:27.away from the courtroom tod`y. It was packed for family and friends of
:01:28. > :01:37.the big Tim and the accused. When the verdict was read out thdre were
:01:38. > :01:43.costs. `` the victim. Outside the courtroom there was a scuffle. It
:01:44. > :01:47.was very tense here. Today, three teenagers were found guilty of
:01:48. > :01:53.murder. The youngest is just 16 years old. Escaping into thd night `
:01:54. > :01:59.teenagers who had just moments before carried out an horrific
:02:00. > :02:08.murder. As they ran, a penshoner lay dying. Rob and breeding. Thd three
:02:09. > :02:21.teenagers carried out the mtrder together. It is hard to makd sense
:02:22. > :02:31.of this crime. It is shocking. For young people to commit such a vile
:02:32. > :02:42.crime, it is unbelievable. Sharif Demirsay answered his front door and
:02:43. > :02:47.was attacked. They were likd animals, the court was told. The
:02:48. > :02:52.65`year`old was stabbed 11 times and left bleeding on the floor. His
:02:53. > :02:58.partner, who tried to help him, was stabbed through her arm and left
:02:59. > :03:02.traumatised. A police officdr spoke for the family today with Mr
:03:03. > :03:09.Demirsay was my granddaughtdr by his side. Ever since the 14th of May
:03:10. > :03:14.last year our lives have not been the same. This incident has had a
:03:15. > :03:19.devastating effect on so many lives. This was an unprovoked attack on an
:03:20. > :03:31.elderly couple who should h`ve been safe in their own home. An hnnocent
:03:32. > :03:34.man's life was taken. Our mother and grandmother is still traumatised.
:03:35. > :03:42.They went there looking for money and gold. An hour later Sharif
:03:43. > :03:47.Demirsay was dead. There were no forensically use. We had very little
:03:48. > :03:51.to go on in the early stages apart from the CCTV footage. It w`s
:03:52. > :03:58.old`fashioned detective work that cracked the work in the end. They
:03:59. > :04:03.escaped with values worth ?0000 after the brutal murder of `n
:04:04. > :04:07.innocent man. A fourth accused was found not guilty on all counts.
:04:08. > :04:15.After the verdict the judge praised the jury for their patients.
:04:16. > :04:21.Tomorrow morning at 10:30am the three teenagers found guiltx will be
:04:22. > :04:23.back here for sentence ring. `` sentencing.
:04:24. > :04:26.A whistle`blower has revealdd controversial plans by the NHS to
:04:27. > :04:28.cut dementia services in Northamptonshire. A report was sent
:04:29. > :04:31.anonymously to BBC Radio Northampton which outlines a number of leasures,
:04:32. > :04:34.including cutting the number of specialist nurses. The plans come
:04:35. > :04:39.just four months after the Prime Minister called dementia a national
:04:40. > :04:43.crisis and pledged to tackld it Anna Todd has been looking `t the
:04:44. > :04:48.story, and you've got the rdport there.
:04:49. > :04:51.This is the consultation document the public wasn't meant to see. It
:04:52. > :04:55.talks about new ways of working merging, and skill mixing. But what
:04:56. > :04:57.it boils down to really is loney. The service needs to save
:04:58. > :05:00.?350,000.So a raft of cost`cutting measures for dementia services in
:05:01. > :05:06.Northamptonshire are now on the table. Including the possible
:05:07. > :05:08.closure of four memory clinhcs, reducing specialist psychiatric
:05:09. > :05:18.nursing, axing over 30 jobs, cutting pay and downgrading posts. The list
:05:19. > :05:21.goes on. Michael French doctmented his wife Betty's gradual
:05:22. > :05:24.deterioration before her de`th a year ago.He says these cuts will
:05:25. > :05:40.mean an uphill struggle for patients and carers. I would imagine that it
:05:41. > :05:47.would be devastating. As far as psychiatric nursing is concdrned and
:05:48. > :05:52.care, if they are not going to be there, I dread to think what the
:05:53. > :05:55.outcome will be. In the anonymous letter to the BBC
:05:56. > :05:58.the writer, a senior NHS clhnician, says this impacts on vulner`ble
:05:59. > :06:08.people who have no voice. Thoughts echoed by the nurses union. Not
:06:09. > :06:14.everyone has the luxury of relatives who can speak up for them. Obviously
:06:15. > :06:21.be nurses we have are more skilled and experienced in this are` and
:06:22. > :06:25.deliver exceptional quality service to the community which should be in
:06:26. > :06:28.harms, not cut to meet a financial target.
:06:29. > :06:30.Sally Keeble, the labour parliamentary candidate for
:06:31. > :06:33.Northampton, has campaigned on this issue. She says the county's
:06:34. > :06:38.dementia service is already below par. These cuts will further burden
:06:39. > :06:41.families in managing very long term illness. And major changes for
:06:42. > :06:52.nursing staff will ultimately mean a less safe service all round. If they
:06:53. > :06:56.are redeployed, they will t`ke Asus than shall pay cut. That is not
:06:57. > :07:03.about doing proper communitx care and proper service. It will be care
:07:04. > :07:07.on the cheap and it will be risky care as well.
:07:08. > :07:10.In a statement the NHS Trust said they are "continually working
:07:11. > :07:13.together to ensure efficiencies can be made while improving quality and
:07:14. > :07:16.productivity." But they went on to say "staff are at risk of
:07:17. > :07:19.redundancy." This is a staff consultation. Those we've spoken to
:07:20. > :07:28.say it should be public. After all, dementia can affect anyone of us at
:07:29. > :07:32.any time. We didn't react quickly enotgh to
:07:33. > :07:35.the TB outbreak in the Fens. That was the admission today frol Public
:07:36. > :07:38.Health England. It came as they began a screening programme for
:07:39. > :07:41.workers at a packing plant hn Cambridgeshire. 17 people h`ve been
:07:42. > :07:52.diagnosed with tuberculosis in the Chatteris area since 2012.
:07:53. > :07:59.From the managing director to workers on the factory floor. All
:08:00. > :08:03.500 staff at this vegetable packing factory of being scanned for two but
:08:04. > :08:16.Ulysses. It is after two cases of the disease were confirmed. The fact
:08:17. > :08:23.we are the first on the field, I hope it works in our favour. Since
:08:24. > :08:29.2012 they have been 17 cases of TB detect did in factory workers. There
:08:30. > :08:35.have `` they have been at a number of sites in Cambridgeshire. One of
:08:36. > :08:38.those people has already didd, but the authorities insist they have
:08:39. > :08:43.other health issues. TB infdcts the lungs. When symptoms appeardd they
:08:44. > :08:52.can include fever, night swdats persistent cough, unexplaindd weight
:08:53. > :09:01.loss and blood in the frame or spit. So could this have been avohded
:09:02. > :09:05.Yes, one or two people have become ill and they should have done, but
:09:06. > :09:16.they do come from countries with a high prevalence of TB.
:09:17. > :09:26.The authorities are not sayhng whether cases came from. It is
:09:27. > :09:30.Eastern European migrant workers who have bought it in and spread it
:09:31. > :09:38.amongst themselves and posshbly the local population. How do yot know
:09:39. > :09:43.that for certain? It does not surprise me that public health are
:09:44. > :09:50.not disclosing where it has come from. It is full political reasons.
:09:51. > :09:56.People cannot catch TB and dating vegetables packed in factorhes like
:09:57. > :10:01.this, but it is hoped the screening will bring it under control.
:10:02. > :10:04.As we heard in Ben's report, there's no confirmation about whethdr those
:10:05. > :10:07.diagnosed with TB were migr`nt workers, but politicians have been
:10:08. > :10:10.talking a lot about this issue today. The Prime Minister promised
:10:11. > :10:13.to crackdown on what he calls modern day slavery. While the Labotr Party
:10:14. > :10:16.has outlined a plan to send gang masters to prison if they exploit
:10:17. > :10:23.migrant workers. Our political correspondent Andrew Sinclahr joins
:10:24. > :10:28.me now. Is this about immigration or about protecting workers? It is a
:10:29. > :10:34.bit of both. If you can discourage people from employing illeg`l
:10:35. > :10:41.workers, it you will discourage illegal immigrants. Most imligrants
:10:42. > :10:49.are looked after, but some `re taken advantage of. The Prime Minhster has
:10:50. > :11:02.announced that the gang master licensing agency will now bd fined
:11:03. > :11:09.if they take advantage of ilmigrant workers. I think it is a sc`ndal
:11:10. > :11:13.that in Britain you have gang masters behaving in this wax. It is
:11:14. > :11:16.appalling to have this sort of modern`day slavery and I want to
:11:17. > :11:23.make sure the government acts as effectively as possible. He also
:11:24. > :11:33.plans to stop recruitment agencies from advertising jobs abroad only.
:11:34. > :11:44.And labour toughening its stance as well? Yes. The Shadow Home Secretary
:11:45. > :11:52.talking about stricter borddrs. She said that the GLA had no cloud and
:11:53. > :11:58.the rules need tightening. Businesses need to know where they
:11:59. > :12:06.stand and responsible emploxers should not be undercut. In prior to
:12:07. > :12:14.use pressure or forced to X `` take advantage of people will be fined.
:12:15. > :12:20.UKIP are saying these measures are all well and good, but they do not
:12:21. > :12:26.go far enough. Thank you. Detectives in Kettering.. H`ve
:12:27. > :12:29.released CCTV footage of a woman repeatedly being punched in the face
:12:30. > :12:33.after confronting burglars who broke into her home. The woman, who hasn't
:12:34. > :12:36.been named, can be seen chasing the burglars out of her home. The men
:12:37. > :12:40.had taken the keys to two f`mily cars and when one man was
:12:41. > :12:43.challenged, he hit the woman six times before running away elpty
:12:44. > :12:46.handed. Both men ran off into Hallwood Road. Those other top
:12:47. > :12:47.stories tonight. standards say the find all sorts of
:12:48. > :13:04.Bailey ingredients in the cigarettes. Today, three people
:13:05. > :13:13.Still to come, the racing world celebrates the life of Sharon, who
:13:14. > :13:17.was paralysed 20 years ago. And women running in the London Marathon
:13:18. > :13:24.who will be keeping a promise to her dying father. It is estimatdd that
:13:25. > :13:31.more than 100 million land lines across the world. Over the last 15
:13:32. > :13:35.years, the Cambridgeshire company has been making a machine which will
:13:36. > :13:44.help clear them. It hopes the machine will ease the job of
:13:45. > :13:50.cleaning them. It has already been used by countries in South @merica
:13:51. > :13:55.and Africa. This is the remote`controlled robot. It took 12
:13:56. > :14:10.months to develop, is driven by a 40 horsepower diesel engine and is
:14:11. > :14:15.highly effective. It can detect antipersonnel mines. A lot of these
:14:16. > :14:16.names do not have metal in them which makes them very hard to
:14:17. > :14:40.dictate otherwise. We simply don't know. Could be
:14:41. > :14:44.terrorism? They do not want you to go into the minefield. They probably
:14:45. > :14:55.want you to do this by hand. It could take alike of all kill you
:14:56. > :15:03.completely. On till now, it specialised in bigger vehicles. At
:15:04. > :15:11.the workshop, they take a ndw tractor, take it apart and `rm the
:15:12. > :15:16.painting. How come the vehicle and the driver survived? What h`ppens is
:15:17. > :15:24.that the flail is designed so that the explosion is given plenty to
:15:25. > :15:33.room and air to escape. It does not come back towards the track itself.
:15:34. > :15:37.It costs ?150,000 to buy and has already been sold into South America
:15:38. > :15:42.and Africa. There is hope that it will be sold elsewhere to hdlp the
:15:43. > :15:50.battle to rid the world of landmines. Earlier, I spoke to Paul
:15:51. > :15:56.Hyslop from the UN mine acthon service. He took Princess Dhana to
:15:57. > :16:04.the minefield in Angola. It resulted in those iconic shots. The hmportant
:16:05. > :16:12.thing about Diana's involvelent is that it was the time when the mine
:16:13. > :16:19.treaty was being discussed, and it was booked for ratification. Once
:16:20. > :16:23.Diana got involved, and with her untimely death guaranteeing the
:16:24. > :16:30.legislation would pass, it raised the awareness definitely. How
:16:31. > :16:33.widespread is it a problem today? People are still being injured and
:16:34. > :16:44.killed by mines every day. The war against minds is definitely being
:16:45. > :16:48.one. `` the war against landmines. There are still too many de`ths and
:16:49. > :17:04.the only way began stop people being killed is to get rid of thel. I have
:17:05. > :17:08.had demo here of a mine. We are in a situation where we clear mines one
:17:09. > :17:14.leg at a time, or we can put these machines and dogs, and clear the
:17:15. > :17:18.minds and use the lands productively. There must be a
:17:19. > :17:26.dramatic change to a communhty when they have had their area cldared. It
:17:27. > :17:30.is amazing. I was in Afghanhstan in 1997, and the entire city w`s
:17:31. > :17:35.littered with mines. Everything was rubble. There were hundreds of
:17:36. > :17:40.thousands `` there were hundreds of people being killed. I went back and
:17:41. > :17:51.80 months ago, and the whold area has been cleared of mines. H know
:17:52. > :17:57.though that funding from government has dropped in recent years. Why do
:17:58. > :18:02.you think that is? It is prdssure on all budgets. Our core funding has
:18:03. > :18:05.dropped in the last two years, and I think there are other issues, and
:18:06. > :18:14.there are other issues that have come to the fore. The treatx was
:18:15. > :18:21.signed, and we are close to doing it. We hope to see a landmine free
:18:22. > :18:26.world by 2025. In Afghanist`n, five or six years ago, they were talking
:18:27. > :18:35.about 40 years to clear it. Now they are talking about ten years. But it
:18:36. > :18:42.needs large funding. People from the world of racing came togethdr in new
:18:43. > :18:47.cop `` Newmarket today to cdlebrate the life of Sharon Murgatroxd. They
:18:48. > :18:53.ascribe to as inspirational. She died last month. Eightfold during a
:18:54. > :18:57.race 20 years ago it left hdr paralysed, but she was determined to
:18:58. > :19:06.make the most of her life, writing books and raising thousands for
:19:07. > :19:09.charity. Sharon died a fortnight ago. She had a suspected he`rt
:19:10. > :19:15.attack. Convocation is that the coroner could have said to that full
:19:16. > :19:21.all those years ago. It was a tragic moment, but her legacy is ilmense.
:19:22. > :19:27.This is the sport of kings, but this is also one big sporting falily
:19:28. > :19:32.Today, it celebrated the life of someone who showed grit and guts in
:19:33. > :19:42.the cruellest adversity. Shd had a real spirit, wasn't remotelx
:19:43. > :19:47.demeaned `` dimmed by breakhng her neck. Sharon was hooked on horses
:19:48. > :19:52.from an early age. She went on to ride winners. In 1991 in a split
:19:53. > :19:56.second, everything changed. I thought I was quite capable of it.
:19:57. > :20:04.If I made a mistake. It was down to meet. When it turned out to be a bad
:20:05. > :20:15.fall, it gives them just a little extra shot. Knowing always that it
:20:16. > :20:22.could've you. Sharon's race `` life after the fall was lived to the
:20:23. > :20:33.full. Some of Sharon's poems have been read at the service. One of
:20:34. > :21:27.them said, give me the time to feel some pride. Upon his back on power
:21:28. > :21:31.once more. Feel his compasshon, She made sure that every day, she did
:21:32. > :21:41.something different and special That was the most special thing
:21:42. > :21:45.That is her through and through The weird thing is, she spoke `` she
:21:46. > :22:04.e`mailed me on the Tuesday she had the heart attack. She e`mailed. I
:22:05. > :22:08.played it on Radio 2, but bx then she had died. She seemed
:22:09. > :22:16.indestructible, and she had such a strength. In the face of thd
:22:17. > :22:19.greatest adversity, she would make sure that she never complained. She
:22:20. > :22:27.smiled. She got the most out of life. She was a great woman, and she
:22:28. > :22:34.embodied awful lot of what hs great about racing. She was helped by the
:22:35. > :22:47.jockeys fund, and racing dods look after its own, but she never lost
:22:48. > :22:54.her love for racing. She told about the sadness in her life, and she
:22:55. > :22:59.said that her balances to skewed. Everyone in racing is very well
:23:00. > :23:04.aware that you can have an `ccident at any moment. You're very lucky.
:23:05. > :23:10.You should be thankful. We want to live your life like she did. I will
:23:11. > :23:19.think of her making sure th`t you treasure the moments that should
:23:20. > :23:36.treasure. Yes. Clare balding. Sharon had hoped and dreams, and she will
:23:37. > :23:37.be sadly missed. Ken! Now a story from another of you running the
:23:38. > :24:35.London Marathon to her he died in the care of the Saint
:24:36. > :24:47.Nicholas Hospice in Bury Sahnt Edmunds. It brings tears to my eyes,
:24:48. > :24:51.but I try and focus on the positive. I made the promise to him bdfore he
:24:52. > :24:56.passed. When it gets a bit tough on the run, I remember that promise.
:24:57. > :25:04.That is what I am running towards. Keeping that promise for my dad
:25:05. > :25:12.Briony is inspirational. Since she was offered her place in thd London
:25:13. > :25:19.Marathon, she has been a drhving force. She was back in the lemorial
:25:20. > :25:23.garden today looking for inspiration. She is making
:25:24. > :25:28.sacrifices, but there is a big treat in store on Sunday afternoon.
:25:29. > :25:34.Waffles and ice cream. Coca`Cola with the site `` slice of ldmon Egg
:25:35. > :25:39.mayonnaise sandwich with salt. Believe me, it will happen! It is
:25:40. > :25:49.not a race. She just was to finish to keep the promise to make
:25:50. > :25:53.everybody proud. Especially him Another great story from thd
:25:54. > :25:59.marathon. What a feast! Her eyes lit up. Now time for the weather. Good
:26:00. > :26:03.evening. It is clear at the moment, and high pressure continues to
:26:04. > :26:08.dominate. We had this week whether front so it has turned our skies
:26:09. > :26:13.quite cloudy across the reghon. It will really have an impact on how
:26:14. > :26:25.cold it gets tonight. Temperatures hovering around seven or eight.
:26:26. > :26:30.Tomorrow morning, this whether front gets away quite quickly. It could be
:26:31. > :26:37.cloudy across Essex and Suffolk first thing, but it looks as if it
:26:38. > :26:42.will gradually improve. Sunny spells developing, a bad afternoon, but you
:26:43. > :26:50.will notice that it will be a northerly wind, so tempters will
:26:51. > :26:58.clone to 12 or 13. Further spells of sunshine. The pressure pattdrn
:26:59. > :27:08.stays. Good news if you're running the London Marathon. Here is that
:27:09. > :27:15.Outlook. We start trying right. South`westerly wind. Temper`tures
:27:16. > :27:18.climbing to 16 Celsius. A good day for the London Marathon, because it
:27:19. > :27:25.will be a cool start. But then it will turn to warm up. It will get 15
:27:26. > :27:28.Celsius. 17 degrees in London. If you're running the marathon, get ran
:27:29. > :27:33.quickly, because it could bd quite warm into the afternoon! We start
:27:34. > :27:37.working week with some cloud around and temperatures a little bht
:27:38. > :27:41.cooler. I'm sure everyone whll go as fast as they can! Great advhce! That
:27:42. > :27:47.is all from us. Goodbye.
