ITALIA - Roma, 16enne violentata nella notte a Prati. L'aggressore si era finto un poliziotto
Una ragazzina di 16 anni è stata violentata la scorsa notte nel quartiere Prati a Roma. La minore è stata soccorsa intorno alla mezzanotte nei pressi di piazzale Clodio, dove si trova la città giudiziaria, e accompagnata in ospedale.
La ragazzina ha poi raccontato agli agenti della squadra mobile, che ora indagano sul caso, di essere stata avvicinata da un uomo, che si è finto un poliziotto e che così l'ha convinta a seguirlo in un prato nei pressi di piazzale Clodio per abusare di lei. L'uomo, di nazionalità italiana, è ora ricercato dalla polizia.

30 giugno, la giornata di oggi durerà un secondo in più
A deciderlo è stato l'International Earth Rotation Service presso l'Osservatorio di Parigi. Il nostro Pianeta non rispetta sempre le 24 ore previste dalla fisica e quindi è il tempo formale a doversi adattare, come avverrà stanotte, alla realtà. La prassi definita del 'secondo intercalare' (chiamata in inglese 'leap second') è ormai consolidata nel tempo: si tratta della venticinquesima volta che avviene. La prima volta è stata nel 1972, l'ultima nel 2012. Il secondo intercalare viene applicato quando la differenza fra il tempo solare e UTC (il tempo degli orologi di riferimento) si avvicina in valore assoluto agli 0,6 secondi. Non c'è una regola che stabilisce quando è necessario provvedere a questa 'aggiunta', poiché il rallentamento della rotazione terrestre dipende da molteplici fattori, come i terremoti, l'attrito delle marea e gli eventi atmosferici.

Channel tunnel closed again as ferry workers protest on rails
Ferry workers in France faced with losing their jobs have again protested in Calais, cutting sea and rail links to Britain. Eurotunnel was forced to close as strikers burned tires on train tracks and police made several arrests, and long queues of stranded lorries unable to board ferries or flatbed rail transports started to tail back on port service roads. Passengers were stranded, too, with no-one on hand at stations. To keep them informed or deal with their complaints. Families were stuck in cars in the baking sun of a heat wave.
“The office here is empty, there is no-one in the office to tell you what to do, what to do with your ticket, how to get reimbursements on your ticket. They did say at passport control that MyFerryLink would give you an alternative ticket for the Channel Tunnel, on the train, under the tunnel, but there is no one in the office to do that,” said one British traveler.
This is the second strike in less than a week to close the channel crossings. On Monday a court prevented the workers’ co-operative that currently runs MyFerryLink from extending its contract with Eurotunnel. A Danish company, DFDS, is set to take over operations on July 2, but intends to sack nearly two-thirds of the workforce.

Tunisia makes arrests in search for gunman accomplices
Terror arrived at a Tunisian beach resort on Friday when at least 37 people were killed in a mass shooting by suspected Islamist militants. Dozens more were wounded when at least one attacker struck at a packed beach and five star hotel at the popular Sousse resort.

There were unconfirmed reports of a second gunman. Witnesses told how their peaceful holiday suddenly turned into carnage. Some described how terrified sunbathers started running from the beach after hearing the sudden sound of gunfire.

Abolito il roaming dal 2017, fine di una battaglia durata 8 anni
Chi viaggia all’estero non dovrà più pagare sovraccosti per usare il cellulare. Dopo uno blocco di un anno e mezzo e una lunga maratona negoziale notturna, le tre istituzioni hanno raggiunto un accordo per eliminare completamente il roaming a giugno 2017.Finisce così una battaglia iniziata 8 anni fa: da allora i costi per chiamate e sms dall’estero si sono già ridotti tra l’80% e il 90% e un’ulteriore diminuzione scatterà ad aprile 2016: scrivere messaggi da un altro Paese europeo costerà 2 centesimi in più, 5 centesimi il sovraccosto, invece, per minuto di chiamata e megabyte scaricato.
Le regole varranno per chi si reca all’estero in viaggio e non, per esempio, per chi ci vive stabilmente: ecco perché è prevista una clausola di salvaguardia perché gli operatori recuperino i costi in caso di abuso.

Finlandia: a maggio disoccupazione ai massimi dal 2002 - economy
La Finlandia deve fare i conti con il tasso di disoccupazione più alto mai registrato nel giro di 13 anni. Secondo l’Istituto di statistica nazionale, a maggio si è attestato all’11,8%, un punto e mezzo in più rispetto a marzo e aprile quando il tasso era rimasto invariato. Per trovare un dato più elevato occorre tornare indietro a maggio 2012, quando la percentuale di senza lavoro era dell’11,9%. A maggio è aumentata anche la disoccupazione dei giovani tra i 15 e i 24 anni nel Paese nordico, che è stato pioniere nell’introduzione di un sistema di garanzia di lavoro o stage per chi fa parte di quella fascia d’età.

Due persone sono morte a seguito di un arresto cardiaco sul treno proiettile Shinkansen, dopo che un altro uomo a bordo si è dato fuoco, uccidendosi. Il convoglio partito da Osaka e diretto a Tokyo è rimasto fermo sulle rotaie nel mezzo del tragitto. A bordo circa 1000 persone. Il sucida , di cui ancora non si conoscono le generalità, si sarebbe cosparso di liquido infiammabile vicino ai bagni in uno scompartimento centrale del treno.
Con le fiamme si sarebbe sprigionato anche del fumo che avrebbe, secondo le prime testimonianze, provocato dfficoltà respiratorie agli altri passeggeri. Una ventina gli intossicati. Non si conoscono al momento le ragioni che hanno portato al gesto dell’uomo. Le autorità giapponesi per ora non escludono nessuna pista. Il treno proiettile della linea Shinkansen è uno dei gioielli del trasporto giapponese.

RUSSIA - Three-quarters of Russians oppose hijab in schools, poll shows
An overwhelming majority of Russian citizens have spoken against the wearing of traditional Muslim headgear by schoolchildren and students and a large part of these people said they preferred hijab not to be used at all.
According to a poll conducted by the independent research center Levada in mid-June this year, 74 percent of Russians oppose the use of hijab in schools, while 18 percent answered that they saw nothing wrong with this and 9 percent said found it difficult to give a simple answer. At the same time, 38 percent of those who opposed hijab in schools said they were categorically against this type of religious headgear in general.
The Muslim population of the Russian Federation amounts to about 10 percent and the traditions of this religion have already reached Federal level.
In February this year the Supreme Court supported the ban of Muslim headgear in schools introduced last fall by authorities in the Russian Republic of Mordovia. The judge turned down the complaint of local Muslim community saying that the ban on wearing headscarves in schools did not prevent Muslims from believing in God and did not infringe anyone’s constitutional rights.

EXPO - MILANO - Nazarbayev Announces Extension of Visa Free Regime for 20 Countries
President of Kazakhstan Nursultan Nazarbayev announced that his country will extend and expand the trial visa-free regime announced last year and due to end this July. Now, citizens from 20 countries will not need visas for short trips to Kazakhstan, he announced at a Kazakh-Italian business forum in Milan on June 27. About 20 agreements for a total amount of $500 million were also signed at the forum.
The Kazakh delegation headed by Nazarbayev visited Milan to take part in a ceremony dedicated to the National Day of Kazakhstan at EXPO Milano 2015 as well as to visit the business forum. The President also held bilateral talks with Prime Minister of Italy Matteo Renzi.
Delivering a speech at the business forum, Nazarbayev said, “Investors are given the opportunity to attract foreign labour without any quotas and permits. Besides, we have established a visa-free regime for investors from 10 countries, including Italy. From July 15, we will prolong the visa-free regime for investors, and extended it for another 10 countries: Switzerland, Spain, Belgium, Hungary, Monaco, Singapore, Australia, Norway, Sweden and Finland. I think not many countries in the world can offer such beneficial conditions for investors."
The Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) with an integrated single market of 180 million people makes Kazakhstan attractive for investments, Nazarbayev pointed out. The trade bloc of Kazakhstan, Russia, Belarus, Kyrgyzstan and Armenia introduces a free movement of goods, capital, services and workforce. Kazakhstan can be considered as a gate to the EAEU, he explained.

HOLLAND - Facebook must provide info on revenge sex tape
The court in Amsterdam ruled on Thursday that Facebook has to find out who posted the sex tape of a 21 year old woman from Werkendam on the site, NOS reports.
The sex tape featuring the woman and her ex-boyfriend appeared on the social network site in January. It was removed again on February 10th, but had been frequently downloaded and is still being shared. The ex-boyfriend, who made the film, denies putting it online. Which is why the woman filed a lawsuit against Facebook to find out who was responsible. According to her lawyer, this video has turned the woman’s life into a living hell.
Facebook informed the woman that they could not give her any information, because the data has been removed from their servers. According to the company, this type of data is only stored for 90 days.
The court ruled that the perpetrator acted illegally and that Facebook is the only source of information on who the perpetrator may be. The company must therefore fulfill its legal duty and provide any information they have to the victim within two weeks. If Facebook maintains that the data is gone, an independent third party will be called in to verify.

Man dies in hospital following brutal arrest by Dutch police
A 42-year-old Arubian man has died in a Dutch hospital following a violent arrest by The Hague police, local media reported, citing witnesses saying Mitch Henriquez was brutally beaten by law enforcement officers. An investigation has been launched.
The Prosecutor’s Officer (OM) said in a statement that Mitch Henriquez began to feel unwell on the way to the police station, following his arrest at the “Night in the Park” music festival in The Hague, nltimes . nl reported. Video footage shows the man was left without medical aid, lying lifeless and handcuffed on the grass while two agents were sitting on him. Henriquez seemed already unconscious when he was dragged into the police bus.
Witnesses said that Henriquez was making jokes with friends after the festival, shouting he had a weapon, when a group of officers approached him, afadenhaag.wordpress.com reported. Henriquez allegedly resisted his arrest. According to bystanders and his family, police used excessive force to arrest the man, afadenhaag.wordpress.com said.
Haagse agenten hebben gisteren (zaterdag 27 juni 2015) na het 'Night at the Park' festival in het Zuiderpark de 42 jarige Arubaan Mitch Henriquez doodgeslagen. In een verklaring stelt het Openbaar Ministerie (OM) dat Henriquez onderweg naar het politiebureau onwel werd, echter blijkt uit camerabeelden dat hij al buiten bewustzijn of in coma was voordat hij de politiebus in werd gesleurd zonder medische hulp te krijgen.
Getuigen zeggen dat Henriquez na het festival grapjes aan het maken was met vrienden, toen een groep agenten bovenop hen dook. Henriquez belandde in een coma, en overleed vandaag in het ziekenhuis. Volgens omstanders en zijn familie hebben agenten veel geweld gebruikt bij zijn arrestatie.
Volgens het 'officiële' bericht van het OM zou Henriquez geroepen hebben dat hij een wapen had, en zou hij zich hebben verzet tegen zijn aanhouding, waarop er geweld tegen hem werd gebruikt. Pas onderweg naar het politiebureau zou Henriquez onwel zijn geworden. Ooggetuigen en een zojuist verschenen filmpje vertellen echter een heel ander verhaal. Henriquez zou grapjes aan het maken zijn met vrienden, waarop hij werd gewaarschuwd door de politie en doorliep. Ook zijn zus Lila zegt dat hij misschien wat luidruchtig was maar het niet tegen de politie had maar tegen zijn vrienden.
Vlak daarna werden hij en zijn vrienden belaagd door de politie, waarbij er 4 agenten op zijn nek sprongen. Op filmpjes is duidelijk te zien dat Mitch Henriquez schijnbaar levenloos en geboeid in het gras ligt terwijl er agenten op hem zitten. Dit strookt duidelijk niet met het verhaal van het OM, die stellen dat Henriquez pas in het politiebusje onwel is geworden.
De doktoren op de intensive care hebben tegen de familie gezegd dat de dood van Henriquez duidelijk geen natuurlijke oorzaak had. Zijn zus Lila zegt in een interview: “zijn hoofd was helemaal opgezwollen, de meeste klappen heeft hij op zijn hoofd gehad. Hoe kan het dat iemand in de boeien geslagen wordt, in de de auto wordt gegooid en vervolgens bont en blauw en zonder te ademen aankomt?” vraagt de zus van Henriquez zich af.

Op filmpjes is duidelijk te zien dat Mitch Henriquez schijnbaar levenloos en geboeid in het gras ligt terwijl er agenten op hem zitten. Dit strookt duidelijk niet met het verhaal van het OM, die stellen dat Henriquez pas in het politiebusje onwel is geworden.
De doktoren op de intensive care hebben tegen de familie gezegd dat de dood van Henriquez duidelijk geen natuurlijke oorzaak had. Zijn zus Lila zegt in een interview: “zijn hoofd was helemaal opgezwollen, de meeste klappen heeft hij op zijn hoofd gehad. Hoe kan het dat iemand in de boeien geslagen wordt, in de de auto wordt gegooid en vervolgens bont en blauw en zonder te ademen aankomt?” vraagt de zus van Henriquez zich af.

E’ morto Hisham Baraka, procuratore generale egiziano rimasto coinvolto questa mattina in un attenta al Cairo. L’attacco è stato rivendicato dalla cellula islamista Moqawma al Shabia, resistenza pubblica, considerata vicino ai Fratelli Musulmani. Proprio contro la fratellanza si era concentrato il lavoro di Baraka nell’ultimo anno, che lo scorso luglio aveva sequestrato i beni di decine di esponenti di spicco del movimento.

Kazakistan: la magia della torre Bayterek
La torre Bayterek, costruita nel 1997, l’anno in cui la capitale fu spostata da Almaty a Astana.
“La visione della torre da lontano è stupefacente – dice Seamus Kearney, euronews- ma non perdetevi l’opportunità di prendere l’ascensore e salire in cima per gustarvi il panorama di Astana.” La torre rappresenta l’albero della vita che accoglie l’uccello Homa, figura mitologica che conduce la felicità. “La sfera dorata sulla cima della torre – spiega Saule Suyundukova – rappresenta un uovo, elemento che simboleggia l’inizio della vita.”
L’altezza della torre è di 97 metri, altro simbolo, cioè l’anno in cui la capitale fu trasferita. Anche quando scende la notte, la torre continua a trasmettere la propria magia.
