NCAA formally grounds   Governor Amaechi’s plane

Published on April 27, 2013 by pmnews · 8 Comments
The Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) on Saturday formally grounded Gov. Rotimi Amaechi Rivers state government owned Bombardier aircraft.
The authority said that the aircraft was on “illegal operation” in the country.
Mr Benedict Adeyinka, the Director of Airworthiness and Standards, NCAA, said this while addressing newsmen in Lagos.
Consequently, the NCAA said it had grounded the Bombardier-BD 700, Global Express Aircraft, with registration number N565RS.

•Amaechi:

He added that the aircraft’s clearance approval expired since April 2.
“By our records, the last flight clearance for this aircraft was approved for operations on Thursday March 28, 2013, on Accra/Port Harcourt and Accra to terminate on April 2, 2013. With this development, the aircraft has exceeded the extra two days or 48 hours leeway for it to leave the country,” he said.
He said the clearance for the aircraft was sought by Caverton Helicopters on March 27.
Adeyinka said the certificate of registration of the aircraft showed that its owner was Bank of Utah Trustees of Salt Lake City, Utah, U.S.
Adeyinka, however, said that in spite of the expiration of its clearance to fly, NCAA did not ground the aircraft prior to request for start up in Akure on Friday.
“But consequently, this aircraft in reference, is hereby grounded at any airport that is located right now in the country.”
The aircraft return trip to Port Harcourt from Akure on Friday was delayed because the pilot allegedly refused to submit the passengers manifest.
Mr Nnamdi Udoh, the Managing Director of the Nigerian Airspace Management Agency (NAMA), made the allegation at a news conference in Lagos.
Amaechi was among the dignitaries that attended the burial of Mrs Funmilayo Olayinka, former Deputy Gov. of Ekiti State in Ado Ekiti on Friday.
Observers have linked the aviation authorities action with politics, saying Governor Amaechi is being witch-hunted because of his cold war with President Goodluck Jonathan.
NAMA has also explained why Gov. Rotimi Amaechi of Rivers’ aircraft was delayed at the Akure Airport.
The Managing Director of the agency, Mr Nnamdi Udoh, said the delay happened because its pilot refused to submit the passengers’ manifest.
Udoh said that submission of documents, including the manifest stating those on board the aircraft, was part of the mandatory requirements and regulations any pilot had to comply with before taking off from any of the nation’s airports.
“We need to stress that we operate by rules and regulations in the aviation industry. Aviation is not politics and we don’t play politics in the industry,” Udoh said.
Udoh appealed to pilots and operators to comply with the operating rules at all the airports in the country.
He recalled that the aircraft, which flew the governor to Akure, had registration mark 5N565 RS -Global Express.
The NAMA boss said that the Akure Airport made daylight operations, which ended by 6.00 p.m. after which no aircraft was allowed to land or take off, except with permission from higher authorities.
He said the pilot, who flew Amaechi, called for clearance from 6.35 p.m., which was some minutes after the close of daylight operations.
“The pilot called for Air Traffic Controllers (ATC) clearance at 6.35 p.m., got clearance same time, started taxiing by 6.45p.m. and departed by 6.51p.m. ,” he said.
Udoh said the delay in the flight being cleared to take off at that time was subject to the approval of the authorities concerned .
“By regulations, the airport manager has no power on his own to clear any aircraft at this period, except an approval is given by the authorities concerned. After due clearance and the provision of the needed logistics, the aircraft in reference was cleared for take off,” Udoh said.
He, however, said that the issue was still being investigated further.
Reports had indicated that an aircraft conveying Amaechi was grounded temporarily at the Akure airport on Friday .
The incident was said to have happened after the burial

Woman burnt to death for having less than £10 in her account

Sao Paulo ... one of the most dangerous cities in the world

A VIOLENT gang of thieves in Brazil burned a woman to death after stealing her credit card and finding she had less than £10 on it.

The teenage thugs burst into the office of dentist Cinthya Magaly Moutinho de Souza, in Sao Paulo, shortly after midday on Thursday while she was treating a patient.
They demanded the 46-year-old hand over all her money.
But when a petrified Ms de Souza said she had none she gave them her credit card and PIN.
One of the criminals held her and her client hostage while the others went to a cash point to empty her account – only to find she had less than £10 in it.
The furious men returned, doused her with alcohol and set her on fire.
They put a hood over the head of the patient, who heard Ms de Souza screaming at her attackers: “Don’t do it.”
Cops said: “Military police who rushed to the scene found her dead. The gang was seen escaping in a black Audi driven by a fourth accomplice.”
One of the suspects, a 17-year-old, was arrested at his home within hours and confessed to the crime.
Ms de Souza’s dad said his daughter was attacked three years ago as she was leaving her office, but a security guard in the street had saved her that time.
He said: “I hope that society can be more peaceful and that cases like this do not happen again.”
Victoria Fernandes, a neighbour, praised Ms de Souza, who was to be buried yesterday. “She was a very good, very simple person. She did not charge for consultations, just for the treatment she did.”
It is the latest in a string of violent attacks leading to growing fears over safety in Brazil during the World Cup next year.

Gynaecologist gave patient two orgasms in under two minutes

 

A gynaecologist gave a patient two "leg buckling" orgasms in a minute and a half during an examination, a court has heard.

The civil court case against gynaecologist Angus Thomson collapsed on Friday. Bibi Giles had accused him of touching her inappropriately Photo: KEVIN REID

By Nick Britten

7:53AM GMT 16 Dec 2009

 

Bibi Giles said she was horrified at what Angus Thomson was doing to her, as a nurse stood just feet away, but that her reaction had been "involuntary".

She said that Mr Thomson said she was one of the "fittest patients" he had, accused him of sexual assault and is suing him for distress.

Mrs Giles has accused him of trying to start an affair with her and the court heard that on one occasion, when she complained of symptoms, she said he replied in a raised voice: “Well you need to have sex, if you don't you will have an explosion.”

Worcester County Court heard that Mrs Giles visited Mr Thomson for an internal examination on November 30th 2006 at Droitwich Spa Hospital, six weeks after surgery, when he touched her inappropriately.

She said: “I cannot control my body. He was stroking me and my leg just buckled.

 

“I felt that it was wrong - but I didn't know if this is the way gynaecologists examined the patient after the operation.
“When I left the room there was no doubt that the conversation and touch was sexual. When I realised he was doing something out of the boundary I didn't want to say anything as I was still under his care.”
Mrs Giles, from Droitwich Spa, Worcs, said she felt that Mr Thomson had abused her and immediately rang her husband in tears.
She said: “I told him what had happened, Mr Thomson had upset me. I explained how I reacted how my leg buckled. It felt like an orgasm after he had caused it. I was very, very sensitive.'
Mrs Giles said that she didn't want to go through the intrusion of another gynaecologist, so stayed with Mr Thomson but claimed whenever she wanted to talk about her condition he changed the conversation to the subject of them having an extra-marital affair.
She said he gave her his mobile and home telephone numbers, urging her to call day or night, and on one visit tried to kiss her. She claimed that whenever she tried to talk to him about her condition, he turned the topic to sex.
She added: “He tried to twist the calls round to personal issues, emotions and sex. The conversation always starts off with him asking any problems, and then it turns into something else.
“His preference was to talk about matters of a personal nature. He promises me half way about treatment, but at the same time he is pursuing me. He turned the conversation round to issues to do with sex and libido.”
Under cross examination, Christina Lambert, for Mr Thomson, told her: “Not only is it not correct that Mr Thomson asked you for a kiss, but never at any stage was he looking at you and saying you were very attractive.”
She said the examination took place “in the presence of a chaperone”, adding: “It would have been an exceptionally dangerous touching for Mr Thomson – the nurse could have seen your left leg buckle.”
Mrs Giles replied: "Yes it was very dangerous to do it that is why he moved away quickly. He watched me get dressed and made a comment that I was one of the fittest patients he had. He started to stare at me while the nurse Moira helped me off the bed.”
The case continues.

Scientists on brink of HIV cure

Researchers believe that there will be a breakthrough in finding a cure for HIV “within months”.

With modern HIV treatment if medication is stopped, HIV reservoirs become active and start to produce more of the virus Photo: Alamy

6:30PM BST 27 Apr 2013

Danish scientists are expecting results that will show that “finding a mass-distributable and affordable cure to HIV is possible”.

They are conducting clinical trials to test a “novel strategy” in which the HIV virus is stripped from human DNA and destroyed permanently by the immune system.

The move would represent a dramatic step forward in the attempt to find a cure for the virus, which causes Aids.

The scientists are currently conducting human trials on their treatment, in the hope of proving that it is effective. It has already been found to work in laboratory tests.

The technique involves releasing the HIV virus from “reservoirs” it forms in DNA cells, bringing it to the surface of the cells. Once it comes to the surface, the body’s natural immune system can kill the virus through being boosted by a “vaccine”.

In vitro studies — those that use human cells in a laboratory — of the new technique proved so successful that in January, the Danish Research Council awarded the team 12 million Danish kroner (£1.5 million) to pursue their findings in clinical trials with human subjects.
These are now under way, and according to Dr Søgaard, the early signs are “promising”.
Dr Ole Søgaard, a senior researcher at the Aarhus University Hospital in Denmark who is part of the research team, said: “I am almost certain that we will be successful in releasing the reservoirs of HIV.
“The challenge will be getting the patients’ immune system to recognise the virus and destroy it. This depends on the strength and sensitivity of individual immune systems.”
Fifteen patients are currently taking part in the trials, and if they are found to have successfully been cured of HIV, the “cure” will be tested on a wider scale.
Dr Søgaard stressed that a cure is not the same as a preventative vaccine, and that raising awareness of unsafe behaviour, including unprotected sex and sharing needles, remains of paramount importance in combating HIV.
With modern HIV treatment, a patient can live an almost normal life, even into old age, with limited side effects.
However, if medication is stopped, HIV reservoirs become active and start to produce more of the virus, meaning that symptoms can reappear within two weeks.
Finding a cure would free a patient from the need to take continuous HIV medication, and save health services billions of pounds.
The technique is being researched in Britain, but studies have not yet moved on to the clinical trial stage. Five universities — Oxford, Cambridge, Imperial College, London, University College, London and King’s College, London — have jointly formed the Collaborative HIV Eradication of Reservoirs UK Biomedical Research Centre group (CHERUB), which is dedicated to finding an HIV cure.
They have applied to the Medical Research Council for funding to conduct clinical trials, which will seek to combine techniques to release the reservoirs of HIV with immunotherapy to destroy the virus.
In addition, they are focusing on patients that have only recently been infected, as they believe this will improve chances of a cure. The group hopes to receive a funding decision in May.
“When the first patient is cured in this way it will be a spectacular moment,” says Dr John Frater, a clinical research fellow at the Nuffield School of Medicine, Oxford University, and a member of the CHERUB group.
“It will prove that we are heading in the right direction and demonstrate that a cure is possible. But I think it will be five years before we see a cure that can be offered on a large scale.”
The Danish team’s research is among the most advanced and fast moving in the world, as that they have streamlined the process of putting the latest basic science discoveries into clinical testing.
This means that researchers can progress more quickly to clinical trials, accelerating the process and reaching reliable results sooner than many others.
The technique uses drugs called HDAC Inhibitors, which are more commonly used in treating cancer, to drive out the HIV from a patient’s DNA. The Danish researchers are using a particularly powerful type of HDAC inhibitor called Panobinostat.
Five years ago, the general consensus was that HIV could not be cured. But then Timothy Ray Brown, an HIV sufferer — who has become known in the field as the Berlin Patient — developed leukaemia.
He had a bone marrow transplant from a donor with a rare genetic mutation that made his cells resistant to HIV. As a result, in 2007 Mr Brown became the first man to ever be fully cured of the disease.
Replicating this procedure on a mass scale is impossible. Nevertheless, the Brown case caused a sea change in research, with scientists focusing on finding a cure as well as suppressing the symptoms.
Two principal approaches are currently being pursued. The first, gene therapy, aims to make a patient’s immune system resistant to HIV. This is complex and expensive, and not easily transferrable to diverse gene pools around the world.
The second approach is the one being pursued by Dr Søgaard and his colleagues in Denmark, the CHERUB group in Britain, and by other laboratories in the United States and Europe

See the face of the drug baron who won right to stay in England

1. Home Office fury as drug dealer immigrant wins right to stay in UK

1. I

A judge's decision to allow a convicted drug dealer who abandoned his children the right to stay in Britain over his “human rights” is at the centre of mounting political protest.

Hesham Mohammed Ali

By David Barrett, Home Affairs Correspondent

 

Hesham Mohammed Ali won an appeal against moves by Theresa May, the Home Secretary, to deport him because of his crimes.

He convinced a judge he had a “family life” which had to be respected because he had a “genuine” relationship with a British woman – despite already having two children by different women with whom he now has no contact.

Ali also mounted an extraordinary claim that his life would be in danger in his native Iraq because he was covered in tattoos, including a half-naked Western woman – a claim which was only dismissed after exhaustive legal examination.

In his decision to let Ali stay, the immigration judge said he was not taking into account new guidelines introduced by the Home Secretary last week, in an attempt to stop spurious human rights cases being brought by criminals to prevent their deportation.

The Home Office has said it was “disappointed” by the ruling, while MPs said it showed there was an urgent need to stop abuse of human rights laws.

 

“Foreigners who commit serious crimes should be deported, regardless of whether they have family in the UK,” a spokesman said.
“We are disappointed with this judgment and that is why this Government will bring forward primary legislation to prevent foreign nationals remaining in the UK through abuse of the Human Rights Act.”
Dominic Raab, the Tory MP who is campaigning for human rights reform, said of the case: “It is bad enough a convicted drug dealer cheating deportation because he has a girlfriend.
“But it’s even worse that our elastic human rights laws consume government time and money fighting such ludicrous claims. The shifting human rights goalposts have encouraged a 'try it on’ culture at taxpayers’ expense.”
Priti Patel, the Tory MP, said: “The right to family life has been completely abused in this case. It’s clear this individual has no regard for proper family life and the upbringing of his children, as he has no relationship with either of the mothers let alone either of his children themselves.
“It is wrong for hard-working British taxpayers to be footing the bill for cases like this. It is further evidence that our human rights laws need to be reviewed immediately.”
The Home Office spent thousands of pounds of taxpayers’ money trying to have Ali deported, fighting his initial appeal – which was eventually set aside – and a second hearing.
The two key elements of his claim were his “family life”, and the danger his tattoos would pose if he was deported to Iraq.
During that hearing the court went to great lengths to consider the issue of Ali’s tattoos, with Judge Jonathan Perkins describing the issue as “problematic”. He asked whether Ali, 36, had considered having the tattoos removed and heard evidence from an expert witness on whether Iraqi people were victimised for having body art.
Ali was brought to Britain “irregularly” by a people-smuggling gang in 2000, when he was 24, and has never been in this country legally. Two years after arriving he made an asylum claim which was refused, as was a subsequent appeal. However, for reasons which are unknown, he was not deported and continued to live in Britain.
He had a child with an Irish woman and then another son with a woman from Liverpool but has no contact with either child, the Upper Tribunal Immigration and Asylum Chamber heard.
In November 2005 he was convicted of possessing Class A and Class C drugs, and fined.
Just over a year later he was convicted of another offence at Snaresbrook Crown Court in London but this time it was more serious – possessing Class A drugs with intent to supply – and he was jailed for four years. Under immigration laws any foreign national jailed for a year or more should be subject to automatic deportation.
Within months of his sentencing, the Home Office told Ali they would attempt to deport him but because there was confusion over his true nationality, the case was allowed to lapse.
The drug dealer was released on bail in January 2009. Deportation proceedings began again in 2010, and Ali again lodged an appeal. He told the court he would be in danger if he was returned to Iraq because he was so Westernised.
Allowing him to stay at the second hearing, Judge Perkins said he was impressed by evidence from Ali’s girlfriend, Cy Harwood, 31, a Londoner who has trained as a beautician. They met in 2005.
The judge ruled that Ali’s deportation would have a very damaging effect on her and would be a breach of the couple’s rights under Article 8.
“Destroying an important relationship in the light of a reformed criminal who was last in trouble over six years ago is, I find, just too much and I am satisfied that an exception is made out,” he said.
The judge also detailed the claim that tattoos, and Ali’s claim that he had become Westernised, would put him in danger in Iraq.
“He described himself as 'covered in tattoos’ including a half-naked Western woman on his chest, a sea horse and star on his arm and his fiancee’s name 'Cy’ surrounded by stars on his hand.
“He was asked if he could refer to any evidence to confirm his alleged fear that being tattooed would be a sign of the infidel in Iraq. His answer was vague. He referred to watching videos on YouTube. He said that people with tattoos get stoned or harmed.”
Alan George, a specialist on Iraq who appeared for Ali, told the court he was not aware of any examples of Muslims being persecuted because of their tattoos but he added that “tattoos would be considered un-Islamic and a tattoo of a semi-naked woman particularly objectionable”.
He suggested it would be difficult for Ali to pray because Muslim ritual requires him to bathe and expose his body.
Describing the issue as “problematic”, Judge Perkins said: “I have had to think carefully about this but the appellant had not given any indication that he had any objection to trying to conceal the tattoo or have it removed.
“[The tattoo on Ali’s hand] might prompt inquiry but as it is a central feature of the appellant’s case that he is now a devout Muslim I am not persuaded there is a real risk of a tattoo doing more than prompting curiosity which would be satisfied by his sincere explanation about the strength of his religious convictions.”
Ali said he worked as a wrestling promoter and had also been a professional dancer. At one stage he passed an audition to work for Simon Cowell, the music impresario, but “he was arrested before he was able to take advantage of that opportunity,” the court heard.
Judge Perkins added that he was deliberately not taking into account the Home Secretary’s changes to the immigration rules.
“I do not arrive at this conclusion by considering the rules in their amended form which purports to introduce aspects of Article 8 expressly into the rules,” he said.
“They do not assist me with the proper application of the appellant’s human rights. My decision is in accordance with binding jurisprudence.”
The case raises new concerns over the arguments sometimes put forward by foreigners who are seeking to stay in Britain, such as the Bolivian man whose case was first reported in The Sunday Telegraph in 2009.
Camilo Soria Avila argued that he should not be deported partly because he and his boyfriend had bought a pet cat, Maya, and joint ownership of the animal added weight to his case that he enjoyed the “right to family life” in Britain.
The immigration tribunal ruled that sending Mr Avila, 36, back to Bolivia would breach his human rights because he was entitled to a “private and family life”
with his British boyfriend Frank Trew, 49, and joint ownership of a pet was evidence that he was fully settled in this country

Two Italian police officers have been wounded after a gunman opened fire outside the prime minister's office in Rome.

Officials said the shootings took place around 11am as prime minister Enrico Letta's cabinet was being sworn in at the presidential palace nearby.

The motive for the attack is as yet unknown, although officials said that a man had been arrested in connection with the incident. He was reportedly wearing a suit and tie, and was named by Italian media as businessman Luigi Preiti, 49.

One of the wounded police officers had been shot in the neck and was in a serious condition, a police official said. Pictures from the scene showed a man in police uniform lying on a cobbled street while being attended to by other officers, bleeding from the neck.

The area around the Palazzo Chigi, a 16th century building that also serves as the prime minister's official residence, was sealed off. Five or six shots were fired and police had found five spent shells from a small calibre weapon.

A police official told Reuters that the man was from the southern region of Calabria and having fired several shots at the two police on duty outside the prime minister's office, he shouted "shoot me, shoot me" to other police nearby.

 

"We still have to understand who he is. He's been caught," Antonio Catricala, a cabinet undersecretary in the former government told reporters.
The mayor of Rome, Gianni Alemanno, added: "It's not an act of terrorism but certainly the climate of the past few months has not helped."
He added: "This is the act of a mad, psychologically disturbed man."
An aide to Foreign Minister Emma Bonino told reporters at the presidential palace that the new Cabinet members were being kept inside until the situation became more clear.
The shooting immediately sparked ugly memories of the 1970s and 1980s when domestic terrorism plagued Italy during a time of high political tensions between right-wing and left-wing blocs.
Mr Letta, who at 46 is one of the European Union's youngest prime ministers, is expected to unveil his programme in a parliamentary session on Monday, before the government is put to a confidence vote in parliament on Tuesday.
Mr Letta, who is deputy head of the moderate Democratic Party (PD), on Saturday ended two months of post-election political stalemate when he brought together former political rivals in a broad coalition government.
On Sunday, his ministers stepped forward one by one to swear allegiance to the republic before President Giorgio Napolitano, who personally picked Mr Letta as prime minister and had a central role in the

Housewife with botched boob job says: I feel like a monster

Botched boob job ... Deborah

By ANGHARAD LLEWELLYN

Last Updated: 27th April 2013

A WOMAN has told of her torment after a botched boob job left her with lopsided breasts.

Debbie, from Los Angeles, had her breasts enlarged 15 years ago when she worked in the adult entertainment industry, increasing her chest size five times to a J cup.

But just days after the surgery, she developed an infection in her right breast, and the surgeon who conducted the operation was nowhere to be found.

Seeking new medical help, a different doctor agreed to remove the infected implant and skin — but only operated on one breast leaving her with one J cup and one smaller boob.

'Grotesque' ... Debbie is unhappy with her body

She is now seeking help from Cosmetic expert Dr Vik Vijh, one of Britain's leading plastic surgeons, on new TV series Last Chance Salon, to be aired next month on new UK channel TLC.

On the show, Debbie explains: "Being large and more voluptuous was the epitome of glamour to me."

But looking at her body after the operation, Debbie says she is devastated.

Unhappy with her body ... Debbie

She says: "It looks like someone hacked me up.

"When I look in the mirror I see this grotesque image, I feel like a monster. I haven't found a surgeon willing or able to help me."

Debbie, who lives with her partner Billy, has barely left the house for 15 years.

She adds: "If someone can help me it will change my world and help me feel like a new person."
