There was a need to. Do with the people in plain clothes working in your hospital i cant say who they were. There was no pressure on us and told you of course everyone wanted to know what happened. To many facts are still missing in the felony case medical facts and probably also criminal logical facts are over sure well i mean its obvious that something terrible happened obviously this is an attack on islam. Also coming up last year he was the killer in new zealands deadliest mass shooting hes now facing life in prison today he came face to face with the families of his victims and you thought you can break. Your face and we became more determined tied to slap. And. To our viewers on p. B. S. In the United States and all around the world welcome we begin the day with russias poisoned politician alexina volley is russias leading opposition figure the loudest critic of the kremlin and we know that he was being watched by the Russian Secret Service last thursday when he suddenly became severely ill the siberian doctors treating him say they saved his life but they didnt say from poison on saturday of all knees still in a coma was medivac from russia to germany today his doctors here in berlin said diagnostic tests made clear no volley was for years and now in a Statement Released by berlins shariat a hospital doctors say that not only remains in a medically induced coma in serious condition but that his life is no longer in danger doctors have confirmed that clinical findings indicate poisoning most troubling for the vollies wife and family his prognosis remains unclear the possibility of long term effects particularly those affecting the nervous system cannot be excluded. But. Shes covering this story for us tonight she is also here in berlin good evening to you the german chancellor issuing a statement immediately after the hospital confirmed the poisoning diagnosis what did uncle americal say. Well im glad marco had a very swift and a very strong statement to make she say that those west of all these cases must be identified and have the countable afforded presumed poisonings she called together was foreign minister hike a moslem moscow to fully and you know transparent manner investigate to suspect its poisoning of alexei and evolve the because of his status as a politico this is then also used diplomatic chief just i borrow say he called for the russian alterity is to investigate the case very closely so pretty strong statements coming tonight from germany and also from europe we learned today that nirvana is now under 24 hour Police Protection here in berlin if he was poisoned once he is there reason to believe that someone could try again to hurt him. Well theres a number of reasons for doubt theres a history of crime enough ponens being killed both in russia and abroad so these being protected here in germany he has been before he has he was escorted by police on his way to the hospital here in berlin hes got it there as well and this afternoon more Police Officers came by the Charity Hospital where hes being taken care off the German Government knows that barely even necessarily a safe place for politico this it and to the kremlin last year in august 2019 a former georgian chechen military commander was murdered in broad daylight here in berlin by an alleged russian Intelligence Officer which obviously increases the diplomatic tension between benon and moscow. Today the german chancellor she called on moscow to investigate. Able to get your. People called the whisperers is that true. Well in that case the clothes are pretty much off as i got america very publicly demanded answers from russia one should never forget that both got to be pretty and i got america leading the d. D. R. To former east germany was america going up there and letting me have 13 being an undercover k. G. B. Agent in days then india eightys going to america won prizes usko for hamas or being of the russian language so they do know each other how each other functions very well and so germany has economy ties with russia but the climatically weve seen an increase of tensions between the 2 leaders between the 2 countries. Was the opposite views of russia and germany on belarus and now is a suspected poisoning of alexei nevada in the. You know that weve got mr ball being treated in a german hospital he was flown out of russia his life was in danger at the time the optics of this germany saving a russian mans life from poisoning when russian doctors wont even agree that he was poisoned the optics are bad for russia and for russian president putin. Well theres been a reaction from russian officials has a dozen of on they have tested negative. Inhibitors when he was hospitalized in arms but there hasnt been a political reaction so of course it doesnt have good for russia but at the same time weve been here before and nothing but it changed. Was murdered in 2006 of putting is created by men and then soft was shot dead in 2015 and then last year we saw the bell in america so tensions are just accumulating and mounting between germany and russia over. Russias handling of this dissidents yeah i mean so much of this sounds chillingly familiar. Initials on the story for us here in berlin and i think you are going to take the story now to you to run to when to speak to dr david your link hes a clinical pharmacologist and toxicologist a specialist in poisonous substances doctors good to have you on the day i 1st want to discuss this poison doctors say that they detected colon extra race inhibitors in like scene of all these systems so what what do you know what does the next to raise do with what happens when its production is curtailed. So you can think of the brain and nervous system as a series of billions and billions of of tiny little wires that communicate with each other nerves talk to other nerves and muscles or tissues by releasing chemicals and one of those chemicals is called. What nerve agents do is they block the normal breakdown and so when someones exposed to this they are literally swamped with this chemical chemical we all got in our bodies right now but we just end up with enormous amounts of it and thats gotta sort of telltale clinical picture people who are poisoned with these things will begin to salivate and sweat and develop abdominal cramping and diarrhea muscles will secure late they can have seizures end up in a coma and and often die or perspire. And i assume is worrying then for mr devonian his family tonight is that doctors are not sure what the long term effects could be from this boys. Well they can have long term effects on nerve and muscle tissue one of the more concerning phenomena would be if someone was poisoned with this in their oxygen level was very low because the lungs were who probably the person was breathing well the concern there would be the brain might be deprived of oxygen and. You know might not recover so you know i dont have the details history of all these critical status but that would be a concern i would have and we understand that mr vaughan hes been given and any job the same and he did that was given to the script father and daughter who were attacked 2 years ago in england with no joke nerve agent. A chemical weapon i mean are we talking about here are some some type of poison that is similar to nervy choke him can we deduce that. It sounds like its from the same family i mean not a truck is actually more than 100 different chemicals there are literally thousands of different nerve agents you know some of these are used as pesticides but they are sometimes used for poisoning those the ones in the u. K. A few years ago the treatment of this is actually you know other than Supportive Care and helping someone you know breathe with a breathing machine is giving them the answer here is often needed in very very large quantities because of the sheer enormity of the amount of coal in the. And if were talking about maybe the same family of i assume that were talking about a substance that is not easy to come by when we were talking about talking about that only state actors governments and militaries have act access to which should we assume the same for the substance that was used to poison mr nirvana. I mean based on what we know so far. These is a there are thousands of chemicals in this in this class some of them you can get quite freely but the ones that are used for poisoning in malicious cases like this there are typically doesnt take much at all for minuscule amounts in the kid tax. To the skin so the sorts of compounds in this class that might be used in somebody would normally be very very difficult. Connections as being a connection yeah which we know there are lots of them in russia the doctors the physicians in russia in siberia they say that they found the traces of a poison in 48 hours later the german doctors here in berlin they confirmed that there were traces of the poison is it possible that the toxin was not detectable at 1st and then 48 hours later became detectable. I suspect the Detection Capabilities in germany are greater than those in siberia and so you would normally look for a depressed level of this enzyme in the body these drugs as i mentioned to interfere with this ends and it breaks down to the chemicals that are calling and you can detect low levels of the enzyme for often very long periods of time not every hospital can do that im sure they can do that i dont know if they can do it in syria my suspicion is not also i suppose conceivable that you could actually detect a chemical itself and then be more sophisticated testing that i think could be again normally the sort of thing that a military operation might do so i would be very much inclined to believe the german doctors and be suspicious that the russian testing was not valid or not reported accurately ok dr david yearly joining us tonight from toronto dr we appreciate your time and your valuable insights in the story thank you thank you. For the protests are not stopping. 3 leading opposition activists were arrested monday following another day of demonstrations calling for president Alexander Lukashenko to resign tens of thousands of people protested sunday in the capital minutes they accused of rigging the president ial election 2 weeks ago the authoritarian leader has responded defiantly threatening further crackdown.

Just you make up on terror and faces life sentences for the murder and terrorism charges and the judge has the power to imprison him for the killings without the possibility of parole. Reporter miles tweedy is in new zealand earlier he described one exchange in the court room between the mother of a victim and the White Supremacists shoot. But there was one moment where the mother of one man who was killed by the government actually directed her attention to them directly and spoke to him directly and she said she forgave him for killing his son and she said she had no hate or desire for revenge now terence apparently reported the nodded in response and then blinked heavily and then wiped his eyes following the exchange the government dismissed his Legal Counsel earlier this year and hes chosen to represent himself which has. Led many to speculate that he had my try some point to try and grandstand the same some kind of message out to who knows what. Now authorities are taking steps to try and. Avoid that they want to prevent that from happening. Limited the number of journalists and the courtroom allow them a quarter to 10 and theyre only allowed to report twice a day once at lunch time and i want to let all of the day. But there is definitely no absolute way of preventing him from signing thats saying something so i. Just have to see what happens in the coming days.

Exactly but in my opinion 2000000 is real. Statistics. Around 300 patients are cared for every day in this clinic one in 10 is positive. They are put into quarantine or referred to hospitals 2 weeks ago medi tested positive for curvature 19 today hes come to pick up the results of the follow up test.
