Recognition by the americans. On the streets. Those. Government. Particularly. People are protesting peacefully. On the streets in. Green and. The palestinian cause and the lead. Dependent. You touch on the attack thats the other major story developing thats developing in the country this attack on a church. Well so far we know that at least. There was. Speculation that perhaps there were. Action by the guards guarding the. Four hundred warships. And they were able. To get close. To being even. If there was not a. Member. And that coming on to. The islamic taking responsibility for it may be involved in that too. Thank you police in australia have charged a suspected said to be a loyal agent for north korea trying to sell missile components on the black market chan hand choi was arrested in sydney un sanctions aimed at stopping the norths nuclear bomb and Missile Program have severely restricted cash flow straight as Prime Minister says north korea is trying to support itself by selling illegal goods. North korea is i dined tourists reckless criminal regime threatening the pace of the region it supports itself by breaching u. N. Sanctions not simply by selling commodities like call and other goods but also by selling weapons by selling drugs by engaging in cyber crime it is vitally important that all nations work relentlessly to enforce those sanctions because the more economic pressure that can be brought on north korea the sooner that regime will be brought to its senses a correspondent Andrew Thomas has more from sydney choi han china is a naturalized Australian Citizen but police say he was working here as a loyal agent for north korea trying to earn money for the regime by selling missile components weapons expertise im told on behalf of the regime thats what activity breaks United Nations sanctions under strain sanctions it also breaks australian laws specifically designed to pressure him that the developmental production of weapons of mass destruction is the first person ever to be charged under a lot of the weapons of mass destruction act passed by the parliament here back in one thousand nine hundred five. Will be alleging in court this man was brokering the zeile of missile component three and typical expertise from north korea to other international into teaching. We believe this may be too surprising discussions about the silent missile components reached from north korea to other entities abroad as another attempt to try and rise revenue for the government in north korea we dont know much about those other entities except that at least some of them are said to have been in indonesia and viet nam the place of not that i think any weaponry was actually moved anywhere nor do i think choi hench and was trying to line up any customers here in australia but they do say that about half a Million Dollars was transferred between accounts and i think that if the traits of going ahead then it would have raised tens of millions of dollars for the north korean regime which it also is the former strain an ambassador to south korea he says the case shows how desperate young is getting we dont know who he is selling this equipment to or what kind of equipment it is its all very hazy at this stage i must say of course he is trained in Security Forces justifiably pleased that they caught someone like this and yes it does represent if true a proliferation hazard but who is he say are selling the equipment to we simply dont know hes trying to socalled i think to vietnam and didnt measure as well but were not sure where the Nuclear Components are going if youre going to put sanctions on a country like north korea or any any country theyll do what they can to sell what they have and what north korea does have with the courtesy of Technology Already bought from pakistan and other countries is Missile Technology and Nuclear Technology now if theres a market out there for this material and these technologies theyre going to sell it so i think in a sense you could say a desperate country is going to look wherever it can to sell what it can and i dont think we should be tough to moralistic about this because the largest weapons trader in the world as we know is the United States. Followed closely by russia and britain the french others are doing the same thing theyre not selling Nuclear Technology as such but you know i think we have to be very careful about not imposing too strict a double standard on not the North Koreans are trying to do. Sentinel ahead on the news including. What shaping up to be one of the president ial elections in decades. And in sports a new record is set for the bosss son a sailing trip around the world far will have the details. Thanks. African National Congress is holding a closed door meeting to formally nominate candidates who want to lead south africas ruling party the battle for power is exposed deep divisions within the party thats been losing public support because over to tanya page shes at the a. N. C. Conference in johannesburg and im just wondering what sort of hustling is under way now. Well a lot of hostile ng maneuvering and horse trading of course this is a political conference like any other although president ial candidates dont run with the running mate with official flights without a doubt they are asked specific groupings and were seeing a little indication of some of those discussions already breaking at the current share question of the a. N. C. Did she no one no longer wanted to be a candidate for the presidency that she was throwing her support by the Current Deputy president of the country so from a post or so that may indicate perhaps a little bit of the back door dealing and the possibility that she may be placed quite highly on his list if you like the thing that happened today is the confirmation of the credentials of all the delegates and almost four hundred of them have been disqualified and will not be allowed to vote quite a big number alge of the four thousand eight hundred also and we understand that many of those delegates were believed to have been and the eva for Deputy President obama probusiness main or rival in causes and meanies who most. Potentially a critical blow for her. The conference started with two warnings dont to sing divisive songs and keep the chairs on the ground everybody at speeds that will be flying around this conference all we can say that real not in this conference. A. N. C. Members from competing factions have hurled cheers at one another in the build up to this crucial event there have been allegations of vote buying and intimidation those accusations have led disgruntled members to take legal action that delayed the start of the conference by several hours but the trend to turn to the countrys courts was criticized by president jacob zuma and his last speech as party leader it is actually. We can begin to believe that the courts. Some believe he has eroded the a. N. C. Is all for it under president zuma the party has lost considerable support hes no stranger to legal action himself hes fighting an ongoing battle to keep hundreds of corruption charges at bay this race is as much about the old leader as it is about the new if the president s preferred candidate isolated she may be able to protect him from legal action and his postpresident ial years but if a rival is selected they may be less inclined to help so there is a lot at stake for jacob zuma one commentator said president zuma is legacy is a damaged a. N. C. Possibly he might be the worst president ever had that. The alliance is almost nonexistent. Instant percent off or. So is the average then see the day ended with the nominations in a race that some predicts could be close between current day pretty president s aroma pulsar and in courses on it i mean is the president supposed favorite whoever wins has an enormous challenge to unite the a. N. C. At a time when its divisions has the lead to be it now although we know the main candidates because they have been so much publicity around whos running for the top job of president of the a. N. C. This elective conference isnt just about that top job the positions in the National Executive committee which is the top structure Decision Making body of the a. N. C. Are also up for grabs and there are roughly eighty of those so you see the entire nominations process will take some time and for that reason because theyre voting for eighty six people potentially the voting will also take a long time for almost five thousand people to get through and then of course they need to count they need to verify so at this stage although we were hoping for a result weve been promised a result of by the a. N. C. Today on sunday we now expect it to come through on monday all right thanks for that on your page we are going to be talking about the story more a little later in the program now set of emergency has been declared in southern chile after a landslide devastated an entire village at least five people were killed and dozens of homes destroyed in villa sent in to see it fifteen other people are still missing and just type reports.
