Hear When I was very small a fire by the top of it here she screams and so. I found the staring at my water main. Hopefully everybody's gonna How quickly was it from when you saw the fire starting to take hold full dimensions he services with. 10 minutes on is not is not a good response do you think.

For spirit there are 5 accommodation the best how to go inside and get out of the inside Well I know where everyone's gone viral on shore devil is kind of quiet so as I said this officer is harder than I hopefully I'm sure about apostle of after everybody Simon Barker talking to me from a tower block in Dubai as he looked over to our building that's on fire at the moment is coming around to quarter past 1 the special counsel investigating the alleged Russian interference in last year's us elections has set up a grand jury the 1st step before bringing criminal charges us media says Robert Miller's jury began work in recent weeks and has already issued a subpoena over a meeting in June last year was a Mr Trump some and the Russian lawyer Nepeta Bose has been following the story from l a and joins us now very good morning to you now Nick how significant is this setting up of a grand jury which where where does it come in the phases or this is very significant and it shows that this is a very serious criminal investigation it to an extent it's not a surprise because it's the normal course of events in an investigation like this and it was pretty inevitable that a jury of this kind would be settable a grand jury it's not the jury's job to decide innocence or guilt but it is the jury's job to decide whether there is essentially enough evidence if there's a strong enough case for prosecutions for indictments to be issued for a criminal trial so it's pivotal. To the stage of the investigation where they're gathering information and that's what. Really the jury is going to do over the next few weeks or try to get testimony in the form of perhaps documents they can issue these subpoenas that a lot of people are talking about perhaps to to banks or to telephone companies to get records to scrutinize meticulously times and dates and cross-reference people's accounts to see what's going on so suggestions that there's already issued one of these subpoenas to be able to have the power to pull information in a date or in how long do we think that this grand jury has been operating because we've only heard about it today well we don't know is the honest answer to that but we can presume that probably for a few weeks things do seem to be moving quite quickly because I didn't that long since there Robert Miller took over the investigation the investigation that's of course been described as a witch hunt by Donald Trump but to be at the stage of issuing subpoenas already that would suggest that they are moving quite quickly that doesn't mean to say it's going to conclude quickly this could be weeks or even months before any recommendations a made in terms of possible indictments President Trump was was quick to bring out that the like call of a witch hunt he's been dressing a rally today as there been any mention of this from him that he hasn't directly mentioned the latest developments in terms of this grand jury but he certainly did tackle the the Russian story as he described it and saying that in his view it's a total fabrication we've heard pretty much all of this before from Donald Trump he says the Russian story is just an excuse for the greatest loss in the history of American politics it just makes them presumably talking about the Democrats feel better when they have nothing else to talk about he went on what the prosecutor should be looking at is Hillary Clinton's 33000. Deleted e-mails and at that point there was a huge huge ovation by the crowd and the chant that familiar chant once again of lock her up lock her up if you close your eyes you could be back 12 months ago to the summer of 2016 and the campaign this is just like one of those rallies that he had night after night for this the special counsel is being run by Robert Muller is he going to be one of those names that we we all start to learn about in the in the future is he how important dizzy Well he's a very significant and respected figure he is the former director of the f.b.i. And I think most people thought that he had retired but he was he was brought back into this role and clearly it's significant because he is respected on all sides both sides of the political aisle in the United States he has widespread support perhaps not the support of Donald Trump but clearly senators and congressmen and women believe that he is someone with a strong character and that perhaps he is the right person to be in charge of an investigation like this and yes absolutely definitely over the coming weeks and months we will hear a lot more about him because he is in charge of this investigation he is the person that some people have suggested that Donald Trump may want to try to remove that won't be an easy process but it has been suggested the White House has dismissed that in fact the White House just within the last few hours Nick issuing a statement about this latest matter saying that the grand jury is normally kept secret and that's true grand juries generally operate behind closed doors and we don't really find out much about what they're doing until they've done it until they've issued a decision or a recommendation of the White House statement went on to say that it was fully committed to operating with Mr Mueller the White House according to this is tight called the White House special counsel the White House favors anything that accelerates the conclusion of his work fairly by by doing that by giving that statement it means in some ways that it would be very difficult to remove Robert Mueller from this. Is that the feeling the know way too that he would be sacked by President Roh Well there will be a heck of a stink if that happened there will be political outcry as on all sides of the aisle if the president did attempt and indeed succeed in doing that so the other one line that I should mention from the president's rally a few minutes ago and perhaps very telling he said I just hope the final determination is a truly on a still on the final determination of the Russia investigation and I think in saying that that he hopes it will be a truly honest one perhaps some people might suggest he's sowing seeds there to suggest that this is perhaps through his view through his eyes a dishonest investigation and that if it goes away that criticizes the president or indeed result in some sort of criminal investigation or or prosecution there is a criminal investigation if it was not in a prosecution Donald Trump may well say well the whole thing has been dishonest American law doesn't tend to go very quickly is there any way that we can guess from where we're up to so far how long this is going to stretch What's the timeline Adobe we can't there is no timeline on this and it really depends on what these subpoenas throw up and one subpoena can result in a line of in investigation and inquiry that can lead to someone else and to someone else perhaps being brought into the investigation it's as far as we understand it it is Donald Trump's in a circle and especially Donald Trump Jr And that meeting that he had with a Russian lawyer supposedly because he was going to be given some incriminating information about Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump Jr has released all his e-mails and at least we presume and assume that they are all of his e-mails perhaps there are others and that's the kind of thing that the investigation will be looking into so it's a little bit like a house of cards we might think we've got to the heart of it and then something else comes. Up a no go often on a different direction Peter bows thanks very much indeed the time on 5 Live is 21 minutes after 1 o'clock a British computer expert who stopped a world wide cyber attack which crippled the n.h.s. Has been arrested by the f.b.i. In the United States Marcus Hutchins' who's 23 years old and comes from Devon is accused of creating software to steal bank details the B.B.C.'s David Lee is in San Francisco and he told me what he knows so far we understand he was arrested at McCarran Airport in Las Vegas and he's been attending a conference that I myself was out last week over Defcon which is the biggest underground hacking conference of its kind in the world notorious for attracting all sorts of hackers that you just don't necessarily know who they are in his case he was well known because he has been instrumental in defeating the want to cry attack which you may remember from from May this year that crippled much of the n.h.s. Is i t systems he was a hero for doing that he did that almost accidentally but what the authorities have held him for here isn't related to that instead related to something called Kronos which is a separate attack which 1st originated in 2014 it was a trojan basically means it's hides in the machine and collects information and the information it was collecting we understand were banking details so usernames and passwords to log into the bank accounts online and a few other details as well that's what he's been accused of creating and distributing. And that's why the f.b.i. Has intercepted him as he was trying to travel home from my conference and that these are serious charges on the you know this is in America a very serious offense that he's accused of. Absolutely incredibly serious and we've seen some very harsh sentences handed down to people that have been convicted of doing this kind of activity now one of the
