Running battles rage in CairoThere have been running battles between pro-democracy protesters and loyalists of Hosni Mubarak, Egypt's embattled president, near Cairo's Tahrir (Liberation) Square. Witnesses said that gunshots rang out from a bridge leading to the square, the epicentre of protests against Mubarak for the past 10 days. An Al Jazeera correspondent, reporting from the scene, said it was not clear who was behind the firing. There have been sporadic clashes throughout Thursday, as the army fanned out to separate the two sides and allowed thousands more protesters to enter their camp in the square. Soldiers then stepped aside as the anti-government side surged forward in resumed clashes. With volleys of stones, the pro-democracy protesters pushed back the Mubarak loyalists who had swarmed onto a nearby highway overpass where they pelted their rivals with objects. At the same time, Mubarak supporters also carried out a string of attacks on journalists around the square. PM apologises A day earlier, Tahrir Square had witnessed fierce clashes, after Mubarak loyalists - some of them riding camels and horses - attacked the pro-democracy protesters. Ahmed Shafiq, the Egyptian prime minister, made an unprecedented apology on Thursday for Wednesday's assault that turned central Cairo into a battle zone. Shafiq said the attack on the anti-Mubarak protesters was a "blatant mistake" acknowledging that it was likely organised and promised to investigate who was behind it.

دادستان میگوید بانک مرکزی شریک اختلاسگران استغلامحسین محسنی اژهای، دادستان کل کشور و مسئول نظارت بر پرونده اختلاس سه هزار میلیاردی در مصاحبهای که روز دوشنبه از تلویزیون دولتی ایران پخش شد به پرسشهایی در این زمینه پاسخ داد. محسنی اژهای از «شرکت توسعه سرمایهگذاری امیر منصور آریا» و شرکتهای زیرمجموعه آن، که توسط خانواده امیرخسروی درسال ۱۳۸۵ تاسیس شده است، به عنوان متهم اصلی این پرونده نام برد. آقای اژهای در این مصاحبه تاکید کرد که اگرچه رقم این اختلاس سه هزار میلیارد تومان برآورد شده است ولی این به این معنا نیست که همه این مبلغ برنگشته باشد و یا وصول همه آن خلاف مقررات بوده باشد. وی با بیان اینکه اختلاس تنها محدود به دو شعبه بانک صادرات اهواز و بانک ملی کیش نیست، بانک مرکزی را نیز به علت قصور در نظارت و عدم برخورد لازم از زمان اطلاع از این فساد مالی شریک پرونده دانست. او همچنین گفت که بدون تردید اشخاص صاحب قدرت دیگری نیز در این ماجرا «اعمال نفوذ» کردهاند. آقای اژه ای در ادامه به گزارشی از طرف سازمان بازرسی کل کشور خطاب به مدیرعامل بانک ملی در سال ۱۳۸۸ اشاره کرد که نسبت به اقداماتی خلاف قانون در بانک ملی و به طور مشخص در مورد این گروه هشدار داده بود. وی در مورد مدیرعامل این بانک، محمد خاوری، که هماکنون در کانادا به سر میبرد و بر خلاف قرار قبلی به کشور بازنگشته است گفت که این فرد ممنوعیت خروج از کشور نداشته و حکم بازداشتی برای او صادر نشده است. او همچنین افزود که به نفع این فرد است که به ایران بازگردد تا از خودش دفاع کند. ویدیوهای بیشتر در مورد ایران را می توانید در این جا ببینید www.mardomak.org Speaking in an interview with Iran's state-run TV, Prosecutor-General Gholam Hossein Mohseni Ejei said the bank corruption ...

ICC rejects Palestinian request to investigate crimes within its territoriesThe International Criminal Court's General Prosecutor Luis Moreno-Ocampo on Monday said the court will not accept a Palestinian demand to investigate alleged war crimes by Israel since July 2002 until Palestine is recognize as a state by the UN General Assembly. "In order to proceed we need the General Assembly of the UN accepting Palestine as an observer state. As soon as this is done we can proceed," Ocampo told Al Arabiya's New York Bureau Chief Talal al-Haj in an inclusive interview. "There is a problem because In order to proceed I need Palestine recognized as a state because I am not the prosecutor of the world, I am the prosecutor of the countries who accept my jurisdiction. I need a country accepting me and then I investigate the crimes," the prosecutor said. In Jan. 22, 2009, the Palestinian Authority (PA) submitted declaration to the International Criminal Court (ICC) under Article 12(3) of the Rome Statute which allows States not party to the Statute to accept the Court's jurisdiction. The PA's declaration stated: 'The Government of Palestine hereby recognizes the jurisdiction of the Court for the purpose of identifying, prosecuting and judging the authors and accomplices of crimes committed on the territory of Palestine since 1 July 2002. As a consequence, the Government of Palestine will cooperate with the Court without delay or exceptions in conformity with Chapter 9.' The debate since then has focused largely on whether ICC Prosecutor Ocampo first holds the ...
