The US hopes to see "major disarmament" by North Korea by the end of 2020, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo says. His comments come a day after an unprecedented meeting between President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un in Singapore. In a statement North Korea agreed to work towards "complete denuclearisation of the Korean Peninsula". But the document has been criticised for lacking details on when or how Pyongyang would give up its weapons. Speaking in South Korea, where he discussed the outcome of the summit, Secretary Pompeo said there was still "a great deal of work to do" with North Korea. But he added: "Major disarmament... We're hopeful that we can achieve that in the two and half years." He said he was confident Pyongyang understood the need for verification that it was dismantling its nuclear programme. When asked by reporters why this was not specified in the document signed in Singapore, he condemned their questions as "insulting" and "ridiculous". His comments come after President Trump declared that North Korea was no longer a nuclear threat, insisting "everybody can now feel much safer". The credibility of that claim is in doubt. That is because under the deal, the North retains its nuclear warheads, the missiles to launch them and has not agreed to any specific process to get rid of them. Pyongyang has celebrated the summit as a great win for the country. What was agreed at the summit? The declaration signed at the end of the summit said the two countries would co-operate towards "new relations", while the US would provide "security guarantees" to North Korea. Pyongyang in return "commits to work toward complete denuclearisation of the Korean peninsula". Did the summit rhetoric match reality? Full text of the signed statement The oddest moments of the day At a news conference after the meeting, Mr Trump said he would lift sanctions against North Korea once "nukes are no longer a factor". He also announced an unexpected end to US-South Korea military drills. The move - long demanded by Pyongyang - has been seen as a major concession to North Korea and appeared to take US allies in the region by surprise. After the summit, North Korea's state media said the two leaders had agreed that "step-by-step and simultaneous action" was needed to achieve denuclearisation of the Korean Peninsula. American hardliners such as Mr Trump's national security adviser John Bolton have previously opposed such a phased approach, whereby the US takes reciprocal action. What does the deal lack? Most Western observers have said the deal includes no new commitments from North Korea nor details on how denuclearisation could be achieved or verified. At his news conference, President Trump said it was difficult to ensure anything but that he trusted his instinct that Mr Kim would abide by his word. Critics also expressed disappointment that Pyongyang's long record of human rights abuses was not addressed. How has the deal been received? Japan's Prime Minister Shinzo Abe spoke to Donald Trump after the summit, saying there was "great meaning in Chairman Kim's clearly confirming to President Trump the complete denuclearisation". Tokyo also, however, cautioned that despite Pyongyang's pledge for denuclearisation no concrete steps had been taken and that Japan would not let down its guard. Defence Minister Itsunori Onodera said Japan saw "US-South Korean joint exercises and the US military presence in South Korea as vital to security in East Asia". What are the US-South Korea war games? Kim is a 'funny guy' - analysing Trump's quotes North Korea crisis in 300 words A diplomatic menu: What Trump and Kim ate Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi described the Singapore summit as an "equal dialogue" between the two sides, adding that "no-one will doubt the unique and important role played by China: a role which will continue". Chinese state media described the summit as a "starting point" but said "no-one would expect the half-day summit to be able to iron out all differences and remove deep-seated mistrust between the two long-time foes".

The Pentagon has reassured allies of its "ironclad" security commitments, after President Donald Trump cancelled its Korean military exercises. Mr Trump made the announcement after historic talks with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un in Singapore on Tuesday. The cancellation is seen as a significant concession to North Korea. Mr Kim, in his first reported comments since the talks, said it was "urgent" to halt "irritating and hostile military actions against each other". State media quoted Mr Kim saying that the two countries "should commit themselves to refraining from antagonising" each other "and take legal and institutional steps to guarantee it". It also said Mr Kim had invited Mr Trump to visit Pyongyang "at a convenient time" and Mr Trump had also invited Mr Kim to visit the US. "The two top leaders gladly accepted each other's invitation," KCNA news agency added. How the summit unfolded Kim is a 'funny guy' - analysing Trump's quotes How many dead US soldiers are in North Korea? The military exercises, often called "war games", are held in South Korea with local forces and US soldiers stationed there. The Kim-Trump summit meeting - the first such talks between the two countries - centred on nuclear disarmament and reducing regional tensions. It concluded with a one-page agreement. In the press conference afterwards, however, Mr Trump added another announcement: the cancellation of the war games. He also said he wanted to bring US troops home - although he did not specify a timeframe. Mr Trump said the drills were "provocative" - even though the US has previously defended them - and there were suggestions that US allies in the region had not been forewarned of this move. Did the Pentagon know? The previous day US Defence Secretary Jim Mattis told reporters he did not believe that troop levels were on the agenda. When asked if he would know if such discussions were planned, he said, "Yeah, I sure would." However, the Pentagon has since denied that Mr Mattis was caught off guard. He was consulted ahead of time, said Pentagon spokesperson Dana White. In a statement sent to the BBC, she said: "Our alliances remain ironclad, and ensure peace and stability in the region." How did South Korea react? Earlier, South Korea's Presidential Blue House said it needed "to find out the precise meaning or intentions" of Mr Trump's statement. South Korean President Moon Jae-in spoke by phone with Mr Trump for 20 minutes late on Tuesday, but an official readout of the call made no mention of military exercises, according to Reuters news agency. What are the war games? The US maintains around 30,000 troops in South Korea and once a year it brings in others - typically from its Pacific base in Guam - to join large-scale drills. Full text of the signed statement Did the summit rhetoric match reality? The summit's oddest moments North Korea sees the annual exercises as a rehearsal for invasion, but the government in Seoul maintains they are defensive in nature. Mr Trump said scrapping them will save a "tremendous amount of money", but he added that they could be reinstated if co-operation from the North declines. What else did they agree at the summit? The summit began with a handshake, unimaginable just months ago. Mr Trump and Mr Kim - who traded vicious insults last year - gripped each other's hands in front of US and North Korean flags. After a one-on-one meeting, followed by wider talks with advisers and a working lunch, they presented their agreement. It said the two countries would co-operate towards "new relations", while the US would provide "security guarantees" to North Korea. Skip Twitter post by @realDonaldTrump

US President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un will meet for an unprecedented summit on Tuesday aimed at defusing tensions on the Korean peninsula. No sitting US president has ever met a North Korean leader. Mr Trump has said the highly anticipated talks represent a "one-time shot" at peace. The meeting marks a dramatic shift in relations between the pair, who last year traded insults and threats of war. Washington hopes the summit will kick-start a process that eventually leads to denuclearisation of the Korean peninsula. Mr Trump earlier said meetings between the two sides' officials were "going well and quickly". He continued: "But in the end, that doesn't matter. We will all know soon whether or not a real deal, unlike those of the past, can happen!" Mr Kim spent the evening before the meeting visiting some of Singapore's tourist sites. He smiled and waved to excited crowds and was accompanied by Singapore's foreign minister, who tweeted a selfie standing next to him. Why is this remarkable? For decades, North Korea has been a pariah state, and now its latest hereditary leader is being treated as a world statesman. Last year, it would have been a rare sight to see a North Korean flag flying anywhere in Asia. Now, Mr Kim - who runs a totalitarian regime with extreme censorship and forced-labour camps - is meeting and greeting dignitaries. "The circus-like atmosphere might be amusing if the stakes weren't so high," wrote US campaigning group Human Rights Watch. What is the agenda? Few details of the agenda have been released. According to the White House, this is the plan for the summit: Mr Trump and Mr Kim initial greetings (09:00 local time; 01:00 GMT) One-to-one meeting Expanded meeting with other representatives Working lunch Mr Trump will leave the country that same evening to return to the US. Mr Kim is reported to be flying out even earlier, at 14:00 local time. What are the talks about? The talks will focus on North Korea's controversial nuclear programme. "They have to de-nuke. If they don't denuclearise, that will not be acceptable," Mr Trump said ahead of the meeting. US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said the US would only accept "complete, verifiable and irreversible denuclearisation" - but would offer "unique" security guarantees, that would provide North Korea with "certainty... that denuclearisation is not something that ends badly for them". A formal end to the Korean war may also be discussed. The 1950-53 conflict ended with a truce, not a final peace treaty. Mr Trump says signing a peace agreement would probably be "the easy part". How did we get here? A sit-down with the US president is something North Korea has long pushed for. It is an outcome that seemed unimaginable less than a year ago - when Mr Trump and Mr Kim exchanged streams of fiery insults - and North Korea conducted several ballistic missile tests in defiance of the international community. During this warming of relations between the two Koreas, March saw Mr Trump stun the world by accepting an invitation to meet Mr Kim. Still, the road to the Singapore talks has been far from smooth. The lead-up to the summit has been marked by uncertainty and waves of frenetic diplomacy - at one point, Mr Trump even briefly called off the summit, after a senior North Korean official described remarks by US Vice-President Mike Pence as "stupid". Talks of this kind typically take months to prepare. Critics fear that Mr Trump is poorly prepared for the negotiations - while others say Mr Trump's quickfire approach has already produced results - including North Korea saying it is willing to consider denuclearising. What do both sides want? The US wants North Korea to get rid of its nuclear weapons in an irreversible manner that can be verified by the international community. But analysts question why Mr Kim would give up his nuclear weapons after pushing so hard to get them. They also say by winning the prestige of a meeting with the world's most powerful leader, Mr Kim has already gained a victory. Who's pulling the strings of the N Korea breakthrough? Who are Kim's running bodyguards? 'Stop romanticising a dictator' How well has Trump prepared for Singapore? The North Korean leader has also said he now wants to focus on building the country's economy - and wants sanctions relief and international investment. Still, the US is not expecting a final deal in Singapore. President Trump has described it as a "get-to-know-you situation" and said "it's going to be a process". The US president has also said that if he thinks things are going badly, he will walk out of the meeting, but if things go well, Mr Kim could receive an invitation to the White House.

A fire has hit Iraq's biggest ballot paper storage depot ahead of a recount. Votes for the eastern district of the Iraqi capital, Baghdad, were being held in the building. It is not clear if any were destroyed or what caused the fire. Last month's legislative elections were won by an alliance headed by the populist Shia cleric Moqtada Sadr. Amid allegations fraud, the outgoing parliament ordered a recount of about 10 million votes. It is unclear if this may affect the outcome. Firefighters have been attempting to control the fire at the storage site, which housed ballot boxes of the al-Rusafa district in the east of Baghdad. An interior ministry spokesman told the Reuters news agency that the blaze had destroyed some documents and equipment, but efforts were being made to stop it from affecting ballot boxes. He said the blaze had been confined to one of the four warehouses. However, Baghdad province council member Mohamed al-Rabeei told Reuters that "all the boxes and papers have burned". Iraqi authorities have not commented on whether they think the blaze was caused deliberately. Iraq country profile Arms cache blasts destroy Baghdad mosque On Tuesday, Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi warned that security agencies had evidence of "unprecedented" violations during the elections. He said the main issue was with the electronic vote-counting machines that were used for the first time on 12 May. The outgoing speaker of the Iraqi parliament has said the election should be repeated as a result of the fire. Salim al-Jabouri, who lost his seat in May's election, said the fire was "a deliberate act, a planned crime, aimed at hiding instances of fraud and mani[CENSORED]tion of votes". Mr Sadr's nationalist grouping formed an alliance with a number of secular parties. It won 54 of the 328 seats in parliament - making it the largest bloc in the post election landscape. The cleric, who has ruled himself out of becoming Iraq's prime minister, once led a militia which once fought US troops. One of Mr Sadr's aides, Dhiaa al-Asadi, said on Twitter (in Arabic) that he thought the fire was carried out "to cancel the election or destroy the stuffed ballots counted amongst the results". A bloc linked to Iranian-backed paramilitaries that have battled the jihadist group Islamic State (IS) over the past four years came second with 47 seats. Mr Abadi's alliance came third with 42 seats. The election, the first held since the government declared victory over IS in December, saw a turnout of 44.5% - much lower than in previous polls.

BMW's delay in recalling UK cars with an electrical fault contributed to a driver's death, an inquest has found. The firm only recalled cars in the UK after Narayan Gurung died when his Ford Fiesta crashed into a tree to avoid a broken-down BMW on Christmas Day 2016. The Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) was also criticised for failing to press BMW for a recall. There was insufficient evidence to conclude the death was corporate manslaughter, the inquest found. Mr Gurung, a former Gurkha from Aldershot, was driving in the early morning of Christmas Day when he collided with a tree after swerving to avoid the black BMW which had stalled on the A31, an unlit road. The BMW, which was being driven to work by Resham Gurung, a friend and colleague of Mr and Mrs Gurung, had suffered "a total electrical failure". He tried to put on his hazard lights but the lack of power meant this was not possible. Because it was before sunrise, Mr Gurung was unable to see the vehicle until the last moment, when he swerved and hit a tree. He was pronounced dead at the scene. Resham Gurung confirmed there were two incidents previously when he could not unlock his car with the key fob. On both those occasions he had taken it to be checked by an independent garage which had found no fault with the vehicle. Surrey Assistant Coroner Anna Loxton found it was highly unlikely he would have continued to use the vehicle if he had thought it would suffer a total electrical failure at any time. 'Tragic accident' The coroner said: "Despite recognising this risk, the DVSA failed to call for, and BMW AG and BMW UK failed to initiate, a recall until after Mr Gurung's death," She added the DVSA had been aware of a fault since October 2014 when it started to receive an "unusually high" volume of complaints from drivers, but it did not make a "fundamental shift" until after Mr Gurung's death. DVSA chief executive Gareth Llewellyn said it accepted the coroner's findings. "In the past, DVSA's processes may not been as robust or as efficient as they needed to be. We have been addressing this as a matter of urgency and have already made a number of significant changes, ensuring that all reported safety defects are assessed quickly and thoroughly." BMW said the incident was "a tragic accident". "Whilst BMW considers that it has followed all the processes required by the relevant regulations, we recognise the need for the automotive industry to review relevant processes and procedures," a spokesperson added. BMW initially recalled 36,410 petrol cars last year after Mr Gurung's death. Last month, BMW extended the UK recall of its cars after the BBC's Watchdog found that vehicles could cut out completely while they are being driven. BMW owner Mwape Kambafwile told the BBC that in December 2016 his BMW 3 Series car had cut out completely while he was driving. "I just thought to myself if I was driving on the motorway with my family in the car, that could have been very dangerous," he said. Analysis: Victoria Fritz, BBC transport correspondent Despite BMW knowing about the fault for five years before the fatal incident, and even issuing repair kits to dealerships to fix it, there was insufficient evidence, the coroner found, to conclude that Narayan Gurung was unlawfully killed. The coroner agreed that BMW had been negligent in its duties to drivers, and even went as far as to describe the government agency, the DVSA, as indolent in its safety recall practices. The family had hoped for a conclusion of corporate manslaughter. Today's ruling, they said, does not represent a comforting or satisfying conclusion. The DVSA told the coroner that it was developing a revised Code of Practice for safety recalls. The work is due to be completed later this year. Zahra Nanji, from Leigh Day law firm, said the coroner's finding potentially left BMW open to legal claims if any other similar cases came to light where people were injured as a result of the faulty cars. Ms Nanji called for a more "robust" system of recalls and said the DVSA should be given the powers to instigate a mandatory recall in such cases. "Manufacturers are not held to strict time limits by the DVSA about how and when to effect a recall, nor is there a clear warning about potential sanctions for manufacturers who fail to commence a swift recall when safety concerns are raised. We believe this should change in the wake of this tragedy," she said.

US President Donald Trump says he proposed the elimination of tariffs in talks at the G7 summit in Canada, as the major industrial nations struggled to resolve differences on trade. Mr Trump said talks with fellow leaders were "extremely productive" despite tensions over his decision to impose tariffs on steel and aluminium imports. US allies were furious over the move, raising fears of a global trade war. Mr Trump left early for a landmark meeting with North Korea's leader. He is travelling to Singapore to meet with Kim Jong-un on Tuesday to try to persuade him to give up the country's nuclear weapons. G7 leaders are yet to comment on Trump's free trade remarks, but the official Instagram account of German Chancellor Angela Merkel posted a photo of the leaders gathered in what appeared to be a tense meeting. US President Donald Trump says he proposed the elimination of tariffs in talks at the G7 summit in Canada, as the major industrial nations struggled to resolve differences on trade.

G7 leaders are yet to comment on Trump's free trade remarks, but the official Instagram account of German Chancellor Angela Merkel posted a photo of the leaders gathered in what appeared to be a tense meeting. Angered by the high steel and aluminium tariffs, Canada, Mexico and the EU have all said they are all planning retaliatory measures. President Trump warned against such moves, calling it a "mistake" and said if it gets as far as a trade war, then the US would "win that war a thousand times out of a thousand". With divisions over trade laid bare, it still unclear whether a communique agreed by each G7 member will be released when the summit concludes later on Saturday. Why are there divisions? On 1 June, the US imposed a 25% tariff for steel and 10% for aluminium on imports from the EU, Canada, and Mexico. Mr Trump said the move would protect domestic producers that were vital to US security. The EU then announced tariffs on US goods ranging from Harley-Davidson motorcycles to bourbon. Canada and Mexico are also planning retaliatory moves. On Friday Canada's foreign minister called the tariffs "illegal ". European Council President Donald Tusk said they threatened the "rules-based international order". UK Prime Minister Theresa May has said she wants the EU to act with restraint. French President Emmanuel Macron said he believed all sides were willing to reach agreement. What is the G7? It is an annual summit bringing together Canada, the US, the UK, France, Italy, Japan and Germany, which represent more than 60% of global net worth between them. Economics tops the agenda, although the meetings now always branch off to cover major global issues. Why this G7 could get awkward How allies are retaliating against Trump Russia was suspended from the group in 2014 because of its annexation of Crimea from Ukraine. On Friday, Mr Trump made a surprise call for Moscow to be readmitted, but German Chancellor Angela Merkel said other members were against the idea. Meanwhile, another international summit is being held in China. President Xi Jinping is hosting a meeting of the Shanghai Co-operation Organisation (SCO), a regional security bloc, in the eastern city of Qingdao. President Vladimir Putin of Russia, as well as leaders from Iran, India, Pakistan, and four central Asian leaders, are taking part. What else is being discussed at the G7? The five themes for this year's summit are: Inclusive economic growth Gender equality and women's empowerment World security Jobs of the future Climate change and oceans Mr Trump was thought likely to miss the talks on climate change, the environment and probably gender equality on Saturday. The US president was the odd man out on climate change during the G7 in Italy last year, later announcing his intention to withdraw from the landmark Paris agreement. Iran is also a sticking point. Mr Trump recently ditched the 2015 agreement aimed at curbing Iran's nuclear programme. This angered the other signatories who have since sought to shore it up.

The movies go where we can’t, which makes them particularly suited for stories of discovery. But first there is a search, which is pure adventure. Setting out to solve a mystery, or simply to see for oneself what lies beyond, is the stuff of great entertainment. Whether one seeks or finds, the thirst for knowledge and understanding is the key driver of the human story. And we are thrilled to be along for the ride. Here's our look at movies that take on discovery, whether intended or accidental. Searching or Finding? Searching. The voyage of the HMS Bounty is one of the most famous ship journeys of all time, as the British Empire send its formidable fleet to the South Pacific, looking for botanical samples. Captain William Bligh (Charles Laughton) is one of history’s great tyrants, and Fletcher Christian (Clark Gable) his legendary moral opponent. Stream it tonight. Searching or Finding? Searching. Out of the North American French and Indian Wars of the 1700s came the opportunity- indeed the imperative- to go in search of the fabled “Northwest Passage,” the key to trading across what is now Canada. Adventurer and expedition leader Major Rogers (Spencer Tracy) survives battles with the French to lead a band of fellow explorers into the wilderness to find the elusive way west. Searching or Finding? Finding. Victorian-era British army officers, Peachy Carnahan (Michael Caine) and Danny Dravot (Sean Connery) decide that India is too small for them, and travel to a remote kingdom in Afghanistan with the intention of becoming rulers and enriching themselves. They manage to do this at first, but there are risks and dangers looming in front of them. Searching or Finding? Finding. Television reporter Kimberly Wells (Jane Fonda) and her cameraman, Richard Adams (Michael Douglas), stumble onto a cover-up at a nuclear power plant that comes perilously close to full meltdown. The tension builds as technician Jack Godell (Jack Lemmon) and the reporters team up to expose flaws in the plant’s safety regulations. This is the power of the accidental discovery that becomes a quest for the truth. Searching or Finding? Finding. In the early days of the space program, the race is on to discover whether a man really can be sent safely into space. Thanks to the risky quest by test pilot Chuck Yeager to “push the envelope,” NASA found that we could go into outer space, beyond known limits, to discover more about our universe. Searching or Finding? Searching. In 1857, British explorers Richard Burton (Patrick Bergin) and John Speke (Iain Glen) journey to central Africa in search of the source of the Nile. The expedition reveals as much about the relationship between these two famous men as it does about the African continent. Searching or Finding? Searching. Seeking a purity of living, away from the greed and troubles of society, Christopher McCandless (Emile Hirsch) travels further and further away from his home and friends, ending up deep in the Alaskan wilderness. In a sense, he finds what he is looking for, answers that may have been with him all along. Yet the lessons come at a great price.

An Uzbek man who carried out a lorry attack which killed five people in Sweden last year has been sentenced to life for terrorist crimes. Rakhmat Akilov, 40, had expressed sympathy for the Islamic State (IS) group before the attack in Stockholm. But prosecutors had to prove he intended to harm the state, as IS did not say it was behind the attack. Akilov, a rejected asylum seeker, fled the scene but was quickly arrested and confessed during police interrogation. He left Uzbekistan for Sweden in 2014 and sought residency there, but in December 2016 he was told that he had four weeks to leave the country. He disappeared and, a few months before the attack, was put on an official wanted list. How the attack unfolded Who is Rakhmat Akilov? What happened? On 7 April last year, Akilov hijacked a lorry and drove it at high speed down one of Stockholm's busiest shopping streets and into a department store. Five people were killed and 10 more injured in the attack on Drottninggatan (Queen Street). Police discovered an explosive device inside the lorry which was made up of gas canisters and nails. It did not explode properly and only caused fire damage to the vehicle. Akilov reportedly ran from the scene still covered in blood and glass, but was arrested hours later in a northern suburb of Stockholm. He quickly confessed during police interrogation. "He acted with the direct intention to kill as many people as possible," the court said in its verdict. As well as the five murders, he was found guilty of the attempted murders of 119 other people who were at the scene of the attack. A landmark case for Sweden Analysis by Maddy Savage, BBC News, Sweden Rakhmat Akilov failed to get residency in Sweden but it seems he will now be staying in the Nordic nation in the long run, albeit locked up inside a Swedish jail. Life sentences in Sweden typically amount to about 16 years. A spokesperson for Stockholm District Court has confirmed to the BBC that he will remain in the country during this time and is not expected to be transferred to a prison in Uzbekistan. After his jail term he will be deported from Sweden and banned from returning. This was a landmark case in Sweden in which prosecutors had to prove that Rakhmat Akilov intended to harm the state in order to find him guilty of terror crimes. But while the judgement made clear that the killer's actions did have a grave impact on the country, some have questioned whether the compensation awarded to the victims' relatives adequately reflects their more personal loss. The spouses, parents, siblings and children of the five people who died will each receive 60,000 kronor (£5,160; $6,900). Their representatives had asked for 300,000 kronor each. The youngest victim, Swedish schoolgirl Ebba Åkerlund, would have been celebrating her 13th birthday on Thursday. Her grieving father told the tabloid Expressen he was devastated that she was missing out on what "should have been the happiest day of her life". Three Swedes, a Belgian woman and a British man were killed in the attack. The British man was named as 41-year-old Chris Bevington who worked as a director with music streaming service Spotify. The father-of-two was based in Stockholm with his family and reportedly threw his son to safety as the lorry sped towards them. Following the attack, his father John described him as a "wonderful husband, son, father, brother and close friend to many". Swedish national Marie Kide, 66, was also killed. She was a local politician for the Green Party in the town of Trollhattan, in western Sweden. Party spokeswoman Esther O'Hara paid tribute to her. "Marie leaves a huge void behind her, she was a woman with a big heart and courage in her convictions," she said. The other Swedish victims were Lena Wahlberg, 69, and an 11-year-old girl, Ebba Åkerlund. A 31-year-old Belgian woman, Maïlys Dereymaeker, from the city of Halle was also killed. Who is Akilov? Rakhmat Akilov failed in his bid to get residency in Sweden, lost his job and was hiding from police who wanted to deport him prior to the attack. According to reports, he had left a wife and four children behind in Uzbekistan to whom he was sending money. In 2016, he reportedly lost his job after falling asleep at work. Bumping into a former colleague last year, he revealed he was spending his days "sleeping and smoking". His Facebook page - which has been taken down - was linked to a number of extremists through friends and featured at least two propaganda videos linked to IS, one reportedly showing the aftermath of the Boston bombing. During his trial, he said he wanted to punish Sweden for its part in the global fight against IS militants. But he was not considered a threat by Swedish security services which dismissed him as a "marginal character", apparently on the fringes of larger militant movements.

A US judge who was widely criticised for his leniency towards a campus rapist has been removed from office by voters. Judge Aaron Persky handed Stanford University swimmer Brock Turner a six-month sentence in June 2016. But county judges in California are elected, and if a petition to remove them from office garners enough signatures a vote will be held. Such elections are rare - the last time a US judge was recalled was in 1977. Tuesday's vote in Santa Clara County marks the first time a Californian judge has been removed in this way for more than 80 years. Reacting to the result, the campaign to unseat Judge Persky said the voters of Santa Clara were the winners. "We voted today against impunity for high status perpetrators of sexual assault and domestic violence," chair of Recall Persky, Michelle Dauber said. Frat Boys talk misogyny and pledging rituals Sexual assault on campus: A student's story The former Santa Clara County judge recently said he had no regrets about the case and had been bound by sentencing and probation guidelines. Mr Persky said judges should adhere to "the rule of law and not the rule of public opinion". He has been cleared of misconduct by the California Commission on Judicial Performance. What happened in the Stanford case? Turner, 20 at the time, was seen by two other students sexually assaulting his victim behind a rubbish bin outdoors in January 2015. The trial heard how the victim, then 22, was intoxicated to the point of unconsciousness after attending a party on campus. In March 2016, Turner was found guilty of three felony charges and faced up to 14 years in prison. Prosecutors had asked for a six-year term. But he was handed the much shorter six-month sentence and three years probation after Judge Persky expressed concern about the impact prison would have on him. He cited the Turner's age, lack of criminal record and the fact that both the perpetrator and the victim were intoxicated. The case sparked a national debate about sexual assault and whether wealthy white men are treated more favourably in court. Turner was released after serving only three months in county jail. He is on the sex-offenders register and has appealed against his conviction. Outrage at the sentencing was compounded by a letter from his father, Dan Turner, saying his son's life would "never be the one that he dreamed about... a steep price to pay for 20 minutes of action out of his 20-plus years of life". What about the victim? The victim, who has remained anonymous, directly addressed Turner in court in a moving impact statement that was widely read online. "You don't know me, but you've been inside me, and that's why we're here today," it began. She goes on to describe the shock at realising she had been raped, after drinking at a party on campus. "The next thing I remember I was in a gurney in a hallway. I had dried blood and bandages on the backs of my hands and elbow. "I thought maybe I had fallen and was in an admin office on campus. I was very calm and wondering where my sister was. "A deputy explained I had been assaulted. I still remained calm, assured he was speaking to the wrong person." After rebutting Turner's court defence in sometimes graphic detail, she continues: "You made me a victim. In newspapers my name was 'unconscious intoxicated woman', 10 syllables, and nothing more than that. For a while, I believed that that was all I was. I had to force myself to relearn my real name, my identity." How did the recall election come about? It has been a long process that started when community leaders in the county began collecting signatures to recall Judge Persky last June. They needed to gather 58,634 signatures - 20% of the voting electorate - in 160 days. Doing so meant voters in Tuesday's countywide elections would vote on removing him. Michelle Dauber, a Stanford law professor, led the recall effort along with 50 community leaders. In further reaction, she said: "We voted that sexual violence is serious and it must be taken seriously by our elected officials. "In this historical moment, when women's rights are under attack, the women and many men of this county stood our ground."
