:01:24. > :01:29.The Turkish Prime Minister insisted it was a legal decision and not a

:03:00. > :03:03.For the last three or four years, anyone who is speaking

:03:04. > :03:16.against the government policies, is facing either court cases

:03:17. > :03:19.or prison or such control by the government and I think this

:03:20. > :03:22.is a dark period for our country, for our democracy.

:03:23. > :03:26.The EU has responded tentatively, raising serious concerns over

:03:27. > :03:31.But it's accused by many of being soft on Turkey as it needs Ankara

:04:34. > :04:35.Life is tough, sickness is a big issue here,

:04:36. > :04:38.and aid agencies say we're starting to see the second wave of more

:04:39. > :04:40.women, more children, making the journey that their husbands

:04:41. > :04:48.I come to here with my mother and my three sisters.

:04:49. > :05:07.And my father go to Germany since seven months.

:05:08. > :05:10.Many of the refugees have been waiting for more than a week

:06:00. > :06:02.Now to the latest stage in the race for the White House.

:06:03. > :06:13.For the Republicans, Donald Trump is looking

:06:14. > :06:15.to extend his lead over his rivals Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio,

:06:16. > :06:17.with voting taking place in Louisiana, Kansas,

:06:18. > :06:21.For the Democrats, Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders are vying

:06:22. > :06:25.for the votes in Louisiana, Kansas and Nebraska.

:06:26. > :06:27.Let's go to Washington - and join our correspondent Jane

:06:28. > :06:31.There's been plenty of high drama this week for the Republicans.

:06:32. > :06:36.What can we expect from this latest round of voting?

:06:37. > :06:42.They are already counting the Republican votes in Kansas and it

:06:43. > :06:47.looks like at the moment the way to steady a way that Kate Cruise has

:06:48. > :07:01.the lead there. There aren't that many killer gets up for grabs

:07:02. > :07:08.anyway. -- Ted Cruz. But they are still significant, because the

:07:09. > :07:14.campaign to stop Donald Trump aims to fracture the vote. They want to

:07:15. > :07:18.stop him getting the number of votes to win outright before the

:07:19. > :07:21.convention in July. Because these delegates are proportionately

:07:22. > :07:25.allocated, it is very likely that all the candidates will walk away

:07:26. > :07:33.with some of them and that. Donald Trump taking the non-stop and read

:07:34. > :07:40.that he needs in order to reach the magic number of 1237 delegates.

:07:41. > :07:45.A campaign to "Dump Trump" as it's being called is gaining momentum,

:07:46. > :07:48.with people discussing all sorts of ways they might be able to get

:07:49. > :08:03.It may be gaining momentum, but we have yet to see it have any effect.

:08:04. > :08:08.The attack by the Republican nominee in 2012 came from the establishment,

:08:09. > :08:14.so to research and extension was preaching to the choir, not to

:08:15. > :08:17.Donald Trump voters and supporters who basically say, of course the

:08:18. > :08:21.Republican establishment is attacking him, they don't like him,

:08:22. > :08:30.but we do. Why should be listened to them? That is something Donald Trump

:08:31. > :08:35.has been capitalising on holiday, asking what do you expect from the

:08:36. > :08:42.establishment? He is now in Florida, which is an important race. They go

:08:43. > :08:48.to this -- equal to the polls a week on Tuesday. His when all state. If

:08:49. > :08:53.you went that he will have a commanding lead and if Mark all

:08:54. > :08:56.reveal, whose home state if there is, always is, that could see him

:08:57. > :08:59.out of the race. A very significant statement, which is white Trump is

:09:00. > :09:09.there today. One of Sudan's leading

:09:10. > :09:11.politicians, Hassan al Turabi, He was the architect

:09:12. > :09:16.of Sudan's Islamist policies and for years considered the real

:09:17. > :09:19.power behind President Omar But after falling out

:09:20. > :09:23.with the President, he formed an opposition party

:09:24. > :09:26.and became one of his fiercest The government in the Philippines

:09:27. > :09:31.says it's impounding a North Korean It's been done under new UN

:09:32. > :09:37.sanctions imposed on Pyongyang over a nuclear weapons test

:09:38. > :09:39.and rocket launch. Officials says they're waiting

:09:40. > :09:44.for a UN team to inspect the ship. Police in Los Angeles are carrying

:09:45. > :09:48.out tests on a knife said to have been found at the former

:09:49. > :09:54.home of OJ Simpson. They're trying to establish

:09:55. > :09:57.if the knife, has any connection to the murders of his ex-wife

:09:58. > :09:59.Nicole, and her friend Ron Goldman, To Brazil, where President Dilma

:10:00. > :10:14.Rousseff has visited her political He was detained by prosecutors

:10:15. > :10:17.investigating a huge Lula was released after being

:10:18. > :10:21.questioned and has vowed to fight any allegations linking

:10:22. > :10:22.him to the scandal. Hundreds of supporters have gathered

:10:23. > :10:26.outside his house near Sao Paolo. Our reporter Julia

:10:27. > :10:43.Carneiro is there. Supporters of Brazil's Workers'

:10:44. > :10:45.Party are gathered since early in the morning here outside

:10:46. > :10:47.the building where former president Lula lives in the city

:10:48. > :10:50.of Sao Bernardo do Campo, They're here to show their support

:10:51. > :10:53.to the former president Lula was just here

:10:54. > :10:56.earlier in the afternoon. He greeted everyone and now

:10:57. > :10:59.President Dilma Rousseff has arrived to meet him and discuss

:11:00. > :11:01.the situation her government face She herself is facing impeachment

:11:02. > :11:07.proceedings and now this new blow for the Workers' Party,

:11:08. > :11:09.Lula being investigated for allegations that he benefited

:11:10. > :11:11.from money diverted from the company, the oil

:11:12. > :11:19.company Petrobras. Here we see supporters but elsewhere

:11:20. > :11:22.there are many people who celebrated the detention yesterday and that

:11:23. > :11:29.believe the Workers' Party is involved in corruption

:11:30. > :11:31.and support the impeachment So this is a moment when Brazil

:11:32. > :11:35.is very split and this increases polarisation,

:11:36. > :11:37.with new demonstrations planned next week, defending the impeachment

:11:38. > :11:58.of President Dilma Rousseff. A short time ago, I spoke to afford

:11:59. > :12:09.a news editor in the offices of how man. She was in the offices when the

:12:10. > :12:15.reader card. The women and kids had difficulty believing. Some of them

:12:16. > :12:20.were unable to run away and some of them fainted. The police, wearing

:12:21. > :12:26.masks and heavily armoured force their way into the building. They

:12:27. > :12:30.manhandled many others, journalists, we did nothing wrong. We never used

:12:31. > :12:39.any violence against them. We were just there. We were working there.

:12:40. > :12:44.Obviously we are not pleased with what is happening in front of our

:12:45. > :12:49.eyes. Has anyone from the newspaper been arrested and are you worried

:12:50. > :12:55.that you may be arrested? I am worried that I made to be arrested

:12:56. > :12:59.personally because I am an editor at the newspaper, and a columnist, so I

:13:00. > :13:06.am one of the leaders of the journalists who are running the used

:13:07. > :13:11.paper. The newspaper is accused of conspiring with a terrorist

:13:12. > :13:15.organisation, not one but two terrorist organisations. All of a

:13:16. > :13:22.sudden we have become terrorists ourselves so I think it is anyway

:13:23. > :13:30.clay that some of us will eventually be detained and possibly arrested.

:13:31. > :13:36.In the meantime, what happens now? Where do you go from here? We now

:13:37. > :13:40.have an experience of what happens after that sort of action on the

:13:41. > :13:49.part of the government. A couple of newspapers and TV channels were

:13:50. > :13:53.taken over in October last year, a few months after the elections. They

:13:54. > :13:59.all became it strictly pro-government all of a sudden, just

:14:00. > :14:06.the next day. When you turn a critical media outlet into a

:14:07. > :14:10.strictly pro-government one and when you put such a product into the

:14:11. > :14:16.market, there is no demand for it. All those newspapers went bankrupt.

:14:17. > :14:22.They have become, all of a sudden, nor no viable, commercially, so they

:14:23. > :14:25.had to be closed in. Would you like to see more criticism from the

:14:26. > :14:33.international community? Particularly Jews to the refugee

:14:34. > :14:37.crisis -- particularly down to the refugee crisis, the international

:14:38. > :14:44.community has turned a blind eye to what is happening in Turkey and

:14:45. > :14:49.their is an immense source of frustration in the pool. That --

:14:50. > :16:08.among the pro-democracy faction in this country.

:16:09. > :16:15.Turkish police have use tear gas and water cannon for a second day

:16:16. > :16:17.to disperse protests against the takeover

:16:18. > :16:27.The group that sets the rules for World football has approved

:16:28. > :16:31.a trial involving the use of video replay, to help officials in some

:16:32. > :16:45.of the most delicate decisions they face during a match.

:16:46. > :16:47.It will apply to key incidents concerning goals,

:16:48. > :16:48.red cards, mistaken identities and penalties.

:16:49. > :16:57.Football has been reluctant to take on this technology. It is about to

:16:58. > :17:00.change but it will be done with caution. The lawmakers want to

:17:01. > :17:06.proceed with the protocol is looking at how they can get it right before

:17:07. > :17:11.proceeding to live trials by at the very latest the start of the 2017

:17:12. > :17:16.season. They're looking at game changing positions, of course, cases

:17:17. > :17:24.of mistaken identity and credit card decisions. Revenues will get

:17:25. > :17:29.assistance from assistant referees looking at it replays or they will

:17:30. > :17:34.be able to see the incident for themselves before making a ruling.

:17:35. > :17:43.Caution is the key word here. Of officials want to get it right. It

:17:44. > :17:48.is a historic moment for the sport. They see it proves footballers

:17:49. > :18:33.listening to the concerns of pop -- clubs and players.

:18:34. > :18:41.It was a tough match and we wanted to win. We treated for five chances,

:18:42. > :18:46.when we scored and they created to city. It was an open match. Both

:18:47. > :19:03.teams wanted to win. We are so happy now. It was the early kick-off,

:19:04. > :19:10.Arsenal lead at half-time with a pillion to strike giving Spurs eight

:19:11. > :19:19.to one lead. Arsenal were down to two men that Mac ten men at the

:19:20. > :19:28.point when he scored. -- ten men. It was their fourth successive defeat.

:19:29. > :19:31.We feel disappointed in the last ten or 15 minutes but we need to

:19:32. > :19:39.recognise also that the effort from our players were fantastic and we

:19:40. > :19:55.will play much better and create more chances. It was vital for us

:19:56. > :20:04.today. With all the negative vibes, it was important to show character,

:20:05. > :20:10.spirit and attitude. I couldn't see how we could draw points today.

:20:11. > :20:19.West Ham were to note down with 12 months to go but you can see there

:20:20. > :20:24.are that the one. -- they won the game. Newcastle are in real danger

:20:25. > :20:28.of relegation. They lost at home to Bournemouth. Sunderland conceded a

:20:29. > :20:32.late equaliser with Southampton. They are a point clear of the bottom

:20:33. > :20:53.three places. This is what it looks like at the top.

:20:54. > :21:06.The bottom side to cut adrift at this point. Newcastle lost

:21:07. > :21:13.spectacularly. What is the future for their manager? I truly believe

:21:14. > :21:19.in what we're doing and our staff. We still have ten games to go. We

:21:20. > :21:23.are lucky it is not three, otherwise that would not be good. I will be

:21:24. > :21:33.brutally honest, if we keep playing like that, this club will go down.

:21:34. > :21:36.To Tennis now, and Novak Djokovic suffered his first Davis Cup

:21:37. > :21:38.defeat in five years on Saturday as Serbia slipped 2-1 down

:21:39. > :21:47.Great Britain are two-one up in their Davis Cup tie.

:21:48. > :21:50.The Murray brothers - Andy and Jamie - won their doubles

:21:51. > :21:56.on Sunday to try to keep the tie alive for the 2010 champions.

:21:57. > :22:02.Italy were the first team to book their place in the next

:22:10. > :22:12.gave the United States a crucial 2-1 edge with a thrilling five-set win

:22:13. > :22:25.American scientists say they have discovered what could be

:22:26. > :22:34.The creature is so light in colour it resembles a ghost.

:22:35. > :22:37.It was found using a remote deep sea vehicle to explore

:22:38. > :22:39.the Hawaiian Archipelago, a team from the US National Oceanic

:22:40. > :22:41.and Atmospheric Administration discovered a tiny octopus sitting

:22:42. > :22:44.alone on a rock more than 4000 meters below the surface.

:22:45. > :22:46.We are now joined by Michael Vecchione from Virginia,

:22:47. > :23:15.Is this an octopus? It is related. Hello? Hello. We can hear you. Is

:23:16. > :23:38.this an odd this? -- is this an octopus? I call it an optical port.

:23:39. > :23:53.-- -- octopod. There are many varieties. I use the term octopus to

:23:54. > :23:57.refer to the ones that are related to the common octopus. How exciting

:23:58. > :24:09.is this discovery? It is always exciting. I got thrilled when I saw

:24:10. > :24:18.it on the screen. The robot used to find it. How technical was it? These

:24:19. > :24:26.deep sea robot submarines are becoming very widely used for

:24:27. > :24:32.exporting the sea and this is one that has been used by my agency, the
