Eritrean 'People Smuggler' on Trial in Italy

Authorities say he is one of the world's most-wanted people smugglers.

Authorities say he is one of the world's most-wanted people smugglers, but the Eritrean on trial says he is not the man they want. Medhanie Yehdego Mered says he is the victim of a case of mistaken identity.

Also, BBC reporter Akbar Hussain gets inside a camp in southern Bangladesh for displaced Rohingya Muslims from Myanmar. A BBC interview with Delhi's chief minister Arvind Kejriwal goes viral after some angry responses to questions about the country's cash crisis. And, as part of the 100 Women season, we meet Ieshia Evans who stood alone, in a flowing dress, confronting riot police in Baton Rouge during a Black Live Matters protest.
