Well take you to los angeles where thousands of basketball fans have been paying tribute to kobe bryant. Harvey weinstein has been found guilty of two counts in his Sexual Assault trial. Hes been convicted of third degree rape and of a criminal sexual act, in the first degree. He was acquitted of the most serious charge against him of predatory Sexual Assault and first degree rape. The charges rested on the allegations of miriam haley, a former Television Production assistant who testified that mr weinstein forced oral sex on her at his manhattan apartment in 2006 and jessica mann, a former aspiring actress, who says he raped her in a hotel room in 2013. Hed pleaded not guilty to all charges. The Manhattan District Attorney who led the prosecution spoke shortly after the verdict. I believe a b felony conviction with a maximum of up to 25 years is. It is not the top counts in the indictment but by no means am i disappointed with the jurys unanimous statement that Harvey Weinstein is guilty of Sexual Assault and rape. Dozens of accusations against Harvey Weinstein helped drive the Metoo Movement. The anti Sexual HarassmentAdvocacy Group times up, said in a statement this trial and the jurys decision today marks a new era ofjustice, not just for the silence breakers, who spoke out at great personal risk, but for all survivors of harassment, abuse, and assault at work. Mr weinstein is still to face a separate sex Crimes Investigation in los angeles, as well as several civil complaints. Said tina tchen, the president and ceo of times up. The lawyer Gloria Allred represents several other women whove made allegations against Harvey Weinstein and has worked on many cases involving womens rights. She spoke outside the court. My clients bravely stood in their truth and refused to be intimidated, bullied, ashamed into substantially or shamed into changing their testimony about what the defendant did to them. Im very proud of them, i am very happy the jury delivered the verdict that was read in court today as to mimi and as tojessica whom i do not represent. One of the first people to publically accuse weinstein of rape was the actor rose mcgowan, who has been the most vocal about seeking justice. Speaking to the bbc, she pointed out how difficult it is for women to get heard. The fact that we are white women and attractive and of some means and it still took this many of us to even get him to have one day in courtjust sends you the message very clearly how almost impossible it is to even be heard, period, let alone any kind of conviction. Italian model, Ambra Battilana gutierrez, was one of several women who came forward to report Harvey Weinstein to the police but a decision was made not to press charges in her case. She also appeared outside court with a message to other women who may be considering whether to speak up. This can happen to everyone. Everyone could be in the situation so dont think in a selfish way when you speak about what happened to you, it could help other people and so do it. Someone who is not happy with the outcome is one of weinsteins lawyers, who has been describing why hes confident an appeal will be successful. The verdict sheet was flawed and everything in the middle, to have two complainants and three prior witnesses isjust beyond the pale and then for the judge to allow other witnesses to testify to corroborate the prior witnesses is just unheard of. There are several issues on appeal. Witnesses is just unheard of. Its notjust like one little thing, there are multiple issues. This is the opinion of people much smarter than i am who read the transcript and they said you basically get a free ride here, the Appellate Court is going to throw it out. For more on the broader consequences of weinsteins conviction, heres our correspondent nick bryant. This verdict will reverberate around the world because what was at test here was whether the Metoo Movement could find an ally in the us criminal system. Very few of the allegations against the powerful men that face female accusers have actually gone to trial. Partly in some instances because many of the accusations were outside what is called the statute of limitations, that is to say they happen too long ago to actually bring criminal charges so this really was a test of whether the Metoo Movement could look to the courts in america and managed to get convictions with the help of prosecutors. That has happened today and it is worth pointing out as well that this isnt the end of the legal saga of hardy weinstein. He faces additional sexual charges over on the other coast of america in california. Germany. A car has driven into a carnival parade in germany. This happened in the western town of volkmarsen. According to bild newspaper, more than 30 people were injured. We have these pictures. Eyewitnesses say the driver drove the silver mercedes through plastic barricades that had been set up for the parade and accelerated towards the crowd. The driver appeared to target children. Hes now been arrested on suspicion of attempted homicide. Police in germany have given this update. polizei nh there are currently several people, some of whom are seriously injured. There are also children among them. Not much is known about the motive. Although german tv, hessenchau says hessenschau according to the ministry of the interior, based on current knowledge, it does not look like a political or extremist act. Which of course begs the question, well what is this . Heres Damian Mcguinness in berlin. Police quite clearly said this could have been an accident. It could have been either a medical emergency, is how they put it, where the driver was suddenly unable to drive properly or technical problem with the car or indeed it could have been deliberate. That is the most worrying thing because of course germany is in a state of alert since last week because security has been heightened at airports and stations since a far right attack in which nine people of foreign heritage were killed and another two fatalities including the perpetrator himself. So that is the cause of a lot of shock in germany which is why this incident, even though were not sure whether it is deliberate or not is creating a lot of tension because the question is whether it is another attack or it is just a dreadful accident. Donald trumps enjoying a first state visit to india. The president and First Lady Melania Trump began their visit in Narendra Modis home town ahmedabahd. President trump got a trademark bear hug from Prime Minister modi. And thousands of others were there to offer a welcome too. And this is how the city has been preparing. This is a wall being built last week as a beautification drive. Hidden from view is an urban slum, home to 800 families. Many of them are oppose to its construction and to Donald Trumps visit. The first stop was the home of mahatma gandhia where they learned about traditional cloth making. Gandhi used this skill as a form of protest against foreign made cloth during indias struggle for self rule from britain. The main event though was a rally to inaugurate the Worlds Largest cricket stadium. More than 100,000 people showed out. And both leaders spoke of their special relationship when they addressed the crowd. India usa relations are no longer just another fantasy. It is a far greater and closer relationship. America loves india. America respects india and america will always be faithful and loyal friends to the indian people. Even though the president boasted about the huge turnout not everyone stayed to hear all of his speech. This video was posted by bbcs aleem maqboul showing crowds streaming out of the stadium while donald trump spoke. The New York Times estimated up to a third of people left. Theres been a lot of attention on indian social at the president s efforts to pronounce indian names including the city he was speaking in. Five months ago the United States welcomed your great Prime Minister at a giant football stadium in texas and today india welcomes us at the Worlds Largest cricket stadium right here in abebad. You might forgive him for his next one to be honest as he went to talk about the indian philosopher swami vivekananda. As the great religious teacher swah mee vee veck ahnan da once said. A laugh from the president there and even a few laughs in the crowd. Sympathy there but then the president turned to cricket legends Sachin Tendulkar and virat kohli. This is the country where your people cheer on some of the worlds greatest cricket players from Sachin Tendulkar to virat kohli. In the end though, this trips not about pronunciation its about the chemistry between these two men and about trade. Next stop in mr trumps 36 hour visit was the city of agra. And a visit to the taj mahal. Donald trump described it as truly incredible. This is interesting. michaelkugelman the think tank the wilson centre. Its a sign of the times in india, and its a big deal. Indian Media Outlets are breaking away from trump modi coverage to focus on it. This is all connected to a new citizenship law which gives amnesty to non muslim immigrants from nearby countries but not muslims. Mass protests began in december they continued today. This was in delhi hours before President Trump arrived in india. 0ne policeman died in the clashes. Critics accuse the government of marginalising indias 200 million muslims. The government rejects this. This time article by calcutta author suketu mehta draws comparisons between Narendra Modi and donald trump and what he calls their mistreatment of muslims and tough immigration policies. Both would reject the first, and acknowledge the second. Donald trump is proud of his immigration policies and on his stance on trade. Hes previously described india as the king of tariffs and called the tariffs unacceptable. And these two have a huge trade relationship with a value of over 140 billion dollars in 2018. But mr trump wants a reset will he get one . Heres Yogita Limaye in delhi. Tomorrow is actually when they get down to business, today really was about a display of the chemistry between these two leaders. Tomorrow is when they will hold their Bilateral Agreement and we got a teaser of what we might expect tomorrow President Trumps speech today, which is a deal possibly being signed between the two countries. For india to purchase 3 billion worth of military helicopters from the us. But the much touted bigger trade deal, that is not expected to happen during this visit. Expectations were watered down a week ago. Lesotho is a tiny landlocked kingdom surrounded by south africa. And today its Prime Minister appeared in court today accused of murdering his former wife. Heres Thomas Thabane there in the dark blue suit. He sat in the Public Gallery of course an extraordinary sight to see a head of government in this situation. His defence team argues its so unusual, that the matter raised legal questions that this court couldnt answer. Well heres the judge. The question the defence seeks to refer to the high court, sitting as a constitutional court, is whether a sitting Prime Minister can be criminally charged. I must at the outset admit that this is indeed a novel case in our country. Well the judge did though agree to the defences request to adjourn the case. The question of whether a sitting head of government can be tried on criminal charges will now be dealt with by the high court. And the Prime Minister is accused of involvement in the murder of lipolelo thabane. She was shot dead in 2017, two days before the Prime Minister was due to begin his second term in office. The couple were estranged though still married when she was killed. Now bear in mind the Prime Ministers second wife Maesaia Thabane has already been charged with the murder. Indeed for weeks she was on the run wanted posters posted by police. But she turned herself in recently. So the leader and first lady of this tiny kingdom in Southern Africa are now accused of murder. Pumza fihlani is following the case. This becomes a taste of the legal system. Ijudge needs to be appointed along with three other judges and they need to decide which direction this case goes on. This is an awful case as you heard the magistrate explaining. So the judges need to apply the law as they understand it and try to interpret it but of course this is a very serious case, a serious murder case so serious case, a serious murder case so the court will be considering the implication of not prosecuting mr thabane implication of not prosecuting mr tha bane and implication of not prosecuting mr thabane and weigh this against what happen if the court proceeds. He failed to appear on friday, claiming he had travelled to south africa for medical treatment. Also, last week mr thabane said he would stand down as leader because of his age but not untiljuly. Perhaps unsurprisingly, not everyone is willing to wait his own party said he should go now. But for the time being, he remains the Prime Minister. Stay with us on 0utside source still to come.
