World Business Report

Available for over a year

A BBC investigation has found evidence an organised crime gang invested in the UK. The BBC's Andy Verity explains the story. Also in the programme, we hear why bloggers in Tanzania say they could be forced to shut down their sites, as the government introduces an expensive new licensing scheme. The British consumer champion Martin Lewis tells us why he's suing Facebook for defamation, after dozens of fake adverts featuring his face and name appeared on the social network. We find out why the US retail giant Walmart is interested in buying India's Flipkart online retailer. Plus, an airline passenger arriving in the US with an apple given to her on the plane faces a $500 fine. Simon Calder is travel editor of The Independent, and explains the strict US Customs rules.
