CAUGHT – by a lamp post

Cities in the UK like London, Glasgow, and Birmingham are fitting a new device to lamp posts in areas which have a crime problem¹. It’s  called Flashcam² and has been developed by an American company, Q Star. It consists of a camera with a motion sensor³. If it detects a group of people in an area where there is no reason for them to be, it shouts a warning at them such as: Stop! If you are engaging in an illegal activity, your photograph will be taken. Please leave the area. If people don’t move, it goes off with a very intense flash and a loud shot⁴. They have had a positive effect in some parts of London⁵ in reducing crime and anti-social behaviour. 

THE WORLD:

Prime Minister, Sushil Koirala Calls for Courage and Patience Speaking after an emergency meeting of his cabinet, he said: “At an hour of a natural disaster like this, we have to face it with courage and patience.” 

Koirala was heckled by the survivors’ of last month’s earthquake¹ after the government struggled to cope with the scale of the disaster. His government acknowledged that it was overwhelmed by the challenge². 

The districts of Dolakha and Sindhupalchok, two of the worst affected by the original quake last month, bore the brunt of the damage once more, AFP reports. 

“Many houses have collapsed in Dolakha, and there is a chance that the number of dead from the district will go up,” said home minister Bam Dev Gautam. 

The Red Cross said it had received reports of large-scale casualties in the town of Chautara in Sindhupalchok, where its Norwegian branch is running a field hospital. 

“Now hundreds of people are pouring in. They are treating dozens for injuries and they have performed more than a dozen surgeries,” said Red Cross spokeswoman Nichola Jones. 

Patrick Fuller, another Red Cross spokesman, said there also had been reports of landslides in Tatopani, near the Chinese border. 

Save the Children said two major buildings had collapsed in Kathmandu’s Balaju Nayabazar area while many more multi-storey buildings were showing large fissures. 

The Gorkha region had also been hit by landslides³ and many key roads were blocked⁴, the British charity added.
