INTERNATIONAL IMPHAL, THURSDAY, 16 OCTOBER 2014 US led air strikes intensify as Richard Flanagan wins Man Police to investigate ‘beating’ video Syria conflict destabilises Turkey Booker prize for fiction Hong Kong protests HONG KONG, Oct 15 The Hong Kong police department is investigating reports that officers used excessive force against prodemocracy protesters. Local TV showed images of officers beating a handcuffed protester on Wednesday in some of the worst clashes since the protests began. Hong Kong’s security chief said the officers had been “temporarily removed from their current duties”. The incident occurred as police cleared an underpass near government buildings. The police advance came when protesters blockaded the underpass after being cleared out of other areas of the city on Tuesday. Overnight police used pepper spray and batons to remove protesters from Lung Wo Road which they said earlier had to be cleared as it was a major thoroughfare. They also arrested 45 people for “unlawful assembly”. Local TV network TVB aired footage showing a group of plainclothes policeman dragging a handcuffed and unarmed protester and placing him on the ground. They then assault him, kicking and beating him for minutes. The man was named as Ken Tsang, a social worker and member of the opposition Civic Party. He was later taken to hospital. Secretary for Security Lai Tung-kwok said there was “concern” over a video clip “showing police officers who used inappropriate force against an arrested person”. He said the officers seen on the video would be removed from their current duties and an investigation would be carried out. The protesters are now in their third week of occupying key parts of the city in a bid to put pressure on China and Hong Kong’s authorities to answer their calls for political reform. Thousands of people took to the streets at the beginning of the demonstrations but the numbers have dwindled in recent days. They are demanding fully free elections in the next vote for the territory’s leader. China, which has control over Hong Kong, says residents can vote - but it will vet which candidates are eligible to stand. The clashes came on the third day of operations that police say are necessary to ease traffic disruption, but which they insist are not aimed at clearing the protesters. Tsui Wai-Hung, a police spokesman, said none of the 37 men and eight women who were arrested had been hurt. Four police officers were said to have been injured. Occupy Central and the Hong Kong Federation of Students, the two main groups behind the protests, have condemned the violence and asked authorities to investigate. Joshua Wong, a prominent student leader, told AFP news agency that trust between police and the activists was at a low point. “The proper action police should take is to bring the protester to the police car, not to take him away and then punch and kick him for four minutes,” he said. On Wednesday, China’s People’s Daily, the Communist Party’s official newspaper, said the protests were “doomed to fail” in a front-page editorial. China most senior official in Hong Kong, Zhang Xiaoming, told lawmakers in the city that the protest movement “is a serious and political incident that has violated the ‘one country’ principle, challenged the central authority”, and was “illegal activity that openly violates Hong Kong’s current law”. He asked for an end to the protests. Ebola: Second Texas health worker ‘tests positive’, Zuckerberg donates $25 mn WASHINGTON, Oct 15 A second health worker in the US state of Texas has tested positive for Ebola, health officials say. A 26-year-old female nurse is already receiving treatment after becoming infected by a Liberian man who died from the deadly virus last week. US officials say they are monitoring 48 contacts of the Liberian national and the healthcare workers who treated him. The World Health Organization (WHO) says 4,447 people have died from the outbreak, mainly in West Africa. Nina Pham was exposed to Ebola at a Dallas hospital when she treated Liberian Thomas Duncan, the first person diagnosed with the virus on US soil. Doctors at the Health Presbyterian hospital said she was in good condition on Tuesday. The identity of the second health worker has not yet been revealed, however, the person also cared for Mr Duncan while he was in hospital. The health worker was immediately isolated after reporting a fever on Tuesday, the Texas state department for health said in a statement. “Health officials have interviewed the latest patient to quickly identify any contacts or potential exposures, and those people will be monitored,” the department said. Meanwhile, Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg announced on the social networking site that he and his wife, Priscilla, have donated $25 million to the US Centres for Disease Control and Prevention for the fight against the Ebola virus disease. “We need to get Ebola under control in the near term so that it doesn’t spread further and become a long term global health crisis that we end up fighting for decades at large scale, like HIV or polio,” he said in a Facebook post on Tuesday. “We believe our grant is the quickest way to empower the CDC and the experts in this field to prevent this outcome,” Mr. Zuckerberg added. The founder of the popular social networking site believes that making a donation of this kind is the “quickest way to empower the CDC and the experts in this field to prevent this outcome”. Since the Ebola epidemic broke out last March, more than 4,000 people, most of them in West Africa, have died from the disease, according to the World Health Organisation. Zuckerberg said that Ebola so far has infected more than 8,400 people and is spreading rapidly with projections being that one million people or more will become infected in Malaysia arrests 13 people suspected of Islamic State links KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 15: Malaysian authorities said on Wednesday they had arrested 13 Malaysians suspected of having links to Islamic State and who were planning to leave for Syria. Police on Monday raided a restaurant in Shah Alam, a suburb 30 minutes from the capital of Kuala Lumpur, after authorities discovered the group, which included women, was making plans to leave Malaysia. Malaysia has arrested a total of 36 citizens suspected of militancy since April this year and authorities believe that at least 30 are already in Syria and Iraq, fighting for different groups tied to the Islamic State. In June, the foreign ministry said in a statement that 15 Malaysians were allegedly killed in Syria while participating in activities linked to the Islamic State. Malaysian militants have used Facebook and other social media sites to lure recruits, attracting thousands of followers online. Recruits now include young women and families, with local news reporting that a family of four had travelled to Syria, while a Malaysian female doctor’s posts on Facebook on her life as militant’s wife in Syria has attracted wide attention. SaudiArabia sentences outspoken Shi’ite cleric to death RIYADH, Oct 15: A Saudi judge on Wednesday sentenced to death an outspoken Shi’ite Muslim cleric whose arrest two years ago prompted deadly protests, the cleric’s brother said on his Twitter account. Sheikh Nimr al-Nimr was detained in July 2012 after backing mass protests that erupted in February 2011 in the Qatif district of eastern Saudi Arabia, which is home to many of the Sunni-ruled country’s Shi’ite minority. His capture, during which he was shot and wounded by police, prompted several days of protests in which three people were killed. Protests have continued sporadically in Qatif, where more than 20 people have died in violence since 2011.

He emphasised that donations like his directly help the “heroes” who are on the “front line” working to build health centres, train local personnel and identify Ebola cases. He said he and his wife hoped that their donation would save lives and keep the epidemic under control. TURKEY/ISTANBUL, Oct 15 American-led forces have sharply intensified air strikes in the past two days against Islamic State fighters threatening Kurds on Syria’s Turkish border after the jihadists’ advance began to destabilise Turkey. The coalition had conducted 21 attacks on the militants near the Syrian Kurdish town of Kobani over Monday and Tuesday and appeared to have slowed Islamic State advances there, the U.S. military said, but cautioned the situation remained fluid. U.S. President Barack Obama voiced deep concern on Tuesday about the situation in Kobani as well as in Iraq’s Anbar province, which U.S. troops fought to secure during the Iraq war and is now at risk of being seized by Islamic State militants. “Coalition air strikes will continue in both of these areas,” Obama told military leaders from coalition partners including Turkey, Arab states and Western allies during a meeting outside Washington. (Full Story) The fight against Islamic State will be among the items on the agenda when Obama holds a video conference on Wednesday with British, French, German and Italian leaders, the White House said. War on the militants in Syria is threatening to unravel a delicate peace in neighbouring Turkey where Kurds are furious with Ankara over its refusal to help protect their kin in Syria. The plight of the Syrian Kurds in Kobani provoked riots among Turkey’s 15 million Kurds last week in which at least 35 people were killed. Turkish warplanes were reported to have attacked Kurdish rebel targets in southeast Turkey after the army said it had been attacked by the banned PKK Kurdish militant group, risking reigniting a three-decade conflict that killed 40,000 people before a cease-fire was declared two years ago. Kurds inside Kobani said the U.S.-led strikes on Islamic State had helped, but that the militants, who have besieged the town for weeks, were still on the attack. “Today there were air strikes throughout the day, which is a first. And sometimes we saw one plane carrying out two strikes, dropping two bombs at a time,” said Abdulrahman Gok, a journalist with a local Kurdish paper who is inside the town. “The strikes are still continuing,” he said by telephone, as an explosion sounded in the background. “In the afternoon, Islamic State intensified its shelling of the town,” he said. “The fact that they’re not conducting face-to-face, close-distance fight but instead shelling the town from afar is evidence that they have been pushed back a bit.” Asya Abdullah, co-chair of the dominant Kurdish political party in Syria, PYD, said the latest air strikes had been “extremely helpful”. “They are hitting Islamic State targets hard and because of those strikes we were able to push back a little. They are still shelling the city centre.” It was the largest number of air strikes on Kobani since the U.S.-led campaign in Syria began last month, the Pentagon said. The White House said the impact was constrained by the absence of forces on the ground but that evidence so far showed its strategy was succeeding. The Turkish Kurds’ anger and resulting unrest is a new source of turmoil in a region consumed by Iraqi and Syr- ian civil wars and an international campaign against Islamic State fighters. The PKK accused Ankara of violating the cease-fire with the air strikes, on the eve of a deadline set by its jailed leader to salvage the peace process. “For the first time in nearly two years, an air operation was carried out against our forces by the occupying Turkish Republic army,” the PKK said. “These attacks against two guerrilla bases at Daglica violated the ceasefire,” the PKK said, referring to an area near the border with Iraq. Obama, who ordered the bombing campaign that started in August against Islamic State fighters, told the meeting of military leaders from 22 countries to expect a “long-term effort” in the battle against Islamic State militants. “There will be days of progress and there are going to be some periods” of setbacks, he said. A U.S. military official told Reuters after the talks there was an acknowledgement that Islamic State was making some gains on the ground, despite the air strikes. But there was also a sense that the coalition, working together, would ultimately prevail, the official said. “In the short term, there are some gains that they have been able to make. In the long term, that momentum will be reversed,” the official said, adding the coalition would adjust its tactics as Islamic State fighters increasingly blend into the population and become harder to target. The peace process with the Kurds is one of the main initiatives of President Tayyip Erdogan’s decade in power, during which Turkey has enjoyed an economic boom underpinned by investor confidence in future stability.

Indramani Singh Chief Engineer, Irrigation and Flood Control Department, Government of Manipur. LONDON, Oct 15 An Indian lost out on winning the Man Booker prize second time in as many years as Australian author Richard Flanagan took away the literary world’s most coveted prize for his book ‘The Narrow Road to the Deep North’. Flanagan’s book is the story of his father as a prisoner during war in a Japanese prison and was called a literary masterpiece by the jury. A Tasmanian-born author, he is the third Australian to win the coveted prize which, for the first time in its 46-year history, is now expanded to include entries from writers of all nationalities, writing originally in English and published in the UK. He joins an impressive literary canon of former winners including fellow Australians Thomas Kenneally (Schindler’s Ark, 1982) and Peter Carey (Oscar & Lucinda, 1988 and The True History of the Kelly Gang, 2001). ‘The Narrow Road to the Deep North’ is the sixth novel from Flanagan which centres upon the experiences of surgeon Dorrigo Evans in a Japanese POW camp on the now infamous ThailandBurma railway. Named after a famous Japanese book by the haiku poet Basho, The Narrow Road to the Deep North was described by the 2014 judges as ‘a harrowing account of the cost of war to all who are caught up in it’. Questioning the meaning of heroism, the book explores what motivates acts of extreme cruelty and shows that perpetrators may be as much victims as those they abuse. The book is the real story of Flanagan’s father as a prisoner of war. He was a survivor of the Burma Death Railway. The author took 12 years to write it. Ironically, Flanagan’s father died the day he finished the book Flanagan was announced as the 2014 winner by AC Grayling, chair of judges, at an awards dinner at London’s Guildhall.
