Hello, this is David Austin with the BBC News.
India's top court has called on politicians to stop blaming each other for the toxic smog, which is causing a public health emergency in the capital Delhi and take action. The court's comments come as the authorities in Delhi introduced restrictions on the use of private cars in the city as a way of addressing the crisis. Jill McGivering reports.
印度最高法院呼吁政界人士停止就有毒雾霾问题相互指责并采取行动,该问题导致首都德里出现了公共卫生紧急状况。在法院发表上述评论之际,德里当局出台了限制该市私家车使用的规定,并以此作为解决危机的一种方式。以下是吉尔•麦吉弗林的报道。

In strongly-worded statement, the court questioned why people in Delhi were choking every year. "The right to breathe clean air was a fundamental right," it said. It also asked why the farming practice of burning off stubble was continuing in neighboring states despite a ban that seen as a major cause of the current crisis. The court said that officials at all levels should be held accountable. On Monday, Delhi introduced restrictions on private cars as part of efforts to tackle the worst pollution for three years.
在一份措辞强硬的声明中,法院质问为什么德里每年都有人因雾霾窒息。声明称,“呼吸清洁空气是一项基本权利。” 声明还问道,为什么已经出台了禁令,但邻近的几个州焚烧农业残茬的做法却还在继续,这种做法被认为是导致有毒雾霾的主要原因。法院表示,各级官员都应该对此承担责任。周一,德里出台了针对私家车的限制措施,以应对三年来最严重的空气污染。

Vietnam has now arrested, over the weekend, arrested eight people from central provinces where many of these migrants are thought were originated from as two extra people arrested on Friday in Vietnam. In addition to that, we have two people facing manslaughter charges, one in Britain, one in Ireland. The police are hoping to extradite him to United Kingdom. In tandem, we have the process of trying to identify the people found in the back of the lorry and we have a group of Vietnamese officials who have just arrived in London to help British police with that.

The Nigerian army is investigating allegations that soldiers tied up and killed a suspect in the north-east of the country before burying him in a shallow grave. A video widely shared over the weekend appears to show soldiers carrying out the torture and killing. Mayeni Jones reports.
尼日利亚军方正在调查一项指控,该指控称有士兵在该国东北部将一名嫌疑人绑起来杀死,然后将其埋葬在一个浅墓穴中。周末广泛传播的一段视频似乎显示,该国士兵对其实施了酷刑,并杀了他。以下是迈耶尼•琼斯的报道。

In a statement, the army condemned the acts shown in the video, which it said was likely filmed in north-eastern Nigeria. It added that the culprits would face military justice. The graphic footage shows a half-naked man tied by the elbows and ankles being dragged across a field by men in military fatigues. One of the perpetrators tells the victims he deserves to be punished for making them leave their homes to come to Borno state. The man is eventually dropped into a shallow grave where he shot and buried. It's unclear when the video was filmed.
