TOKYO —

Japanese police have arrested the alleged ringleader of a sex home-delivery service specialising in women weighing up to 150 kilograms, a spokesman said.
Keiko Saito, 41, and one of her employees are suspected of conspiring to run a prostitution business under the name “Makkusu Bodi” (Max Body), which boasted that it catered for men who like “explosive boobs and bums”, police said.
Saito is alleged to have had about 30 overweight women working for her, including one who tipped the scales at more than 150 kilograms, Jiji Press reported.
Police say punters in Tokyo could telephone to request a visit in their home or hotel room, a service called “deri-heru” (delivery health) that is widespread in Japan, where it is illegal to sell penetrative sex.
Saito, who is believed to have earned about 400 million yen over three years, had previously worked as a prostitute, Jiji said. She began her business because she believed larger women were popular with customers, the agency added.

Deteriorating health of jailed labor activist Reza Shahabi

Committee of Human Rights Reporters – Jailed labor activist Reza Shahabi’s health is plunging behind bars as prison officials refuse to grant furlough for his medical needs. The treasurer of Union of Workers of the Tehran and Suburbs Bus Company (Sherkat-e Vahed) has said he will resort to going on hunger strike in protest.

Mahmoud Salehi, labor activist and spokesperson for Committee to Defend Reza Shahabi in Iran, said in an interview with CHRR, “Mr. Reza Shahabi has been in very poor health since his return behind bars from furlough. He is in excruciating pain in his neck area, suffers from a cervical and spine injury, and has dangerous fluctuations in his blood pressure. Despite all of this, he has not been seen by a specialist physician while behind bars. He and his family have made numerous requests for him to be transferred to a hospital to receive necessary care, but to no avail. The officials just take him to the Evin prison infirmary as an outpatient and give him pain medication.”

Salehi was asked about the types of pain medication that are administered to Reza Shahabi behind bars. “The physicians employed in the infirmaries of Iran’s prisons are general practitioners. Since most prisoners are non-political, the GP’s just to the minimum needed to get the prisoners out of the infirmary and there is no separation of political or criminal prisoners. They usually just give the prisoners pain killers and sleeping pills because they are not specialists and don’t have access to any other type of medication.”

Mahmoud Salehi, labor activist and former political prisoner, made a request that Reza Shahabi be transferred to a hospital with specialized care and not be taken to a public facility that is not capable of handling Shahabi’s medical needs.

CHRR asked the spokesperson for Committee to Defend Reza Shahabi about the possibility of another hunger strike. “We have made a request to Mr. Shahabi that he refrain from going on another hunger strike. However we cannot make decisions for a prisoner because we are free and not behind bars; we cannot fully know the circumstances that the prisoner is faced with in prison. Only the prisoner profoundly suffers the experience, faces the difficulties and endures the hardships.”

In ending Mahmoud Salehi while expressing his deep worry for Reza Shahabi said, “At the very least I hope a new case file is not generated for Mr. Shahabi with the excuse that he had a leave of absence, so that he can finally receive his crucial medical care after the end of his prison term in [late March 2014].

Egypt ( Seven Killed in Egypt Clashes -261 others injured )

CAIRO – Seven people were killed and 261 others injured overnight amid protests in this capital by tens of thousands of supporters of deposed President Mohammed Morsi, Egyptian state television said Tuesday.

Four of the fatalities occurred in Al-Nahda Square, near the campus of the University of Cairo, where Morsi partisans clashed with neighborhood residents, state news agency Mena said.

Attempts by police to break up pro-Morsi demonstrations in Ramses Square and on Oct. 6th Bridge left two people dead and 134 injured.

More than 400 people were arrested in connection with the incident in Ramses Square, a police source told Efe.

Street vendors and unknown assailants attacked a march by Morsi supporters in the vicinity of Giza Square, according to Mena.

Monday’s protests came a week after 51 Morsi partisans died in a confrontation with security forces in front of Republican Guard headquarters, where Islamists suspected the ousted president was being held.

The Egyptian military removed Morsi on July 3, following days of massive anti-government protests.

Critics accused Morsi and his Muslim Brotherhood movement of doing little to address poverty and Egypt’s struggling economy, of failing to advance the goals of the 2011 revolution that forced out strongman Hosni Mubarak and of seeking to monopolize power. EFE

PHOENIX Az ( Arizona Activists Fight Case by Case to Stop Deportations )

PHOENIX – Arizona activists are trying to stop deportations case by case as the immigration reform debate continues that could give legal status to the estimated 11 million undocumented immigrants living in the United States.

“We’ve come to the point in Arizona where we can’t wait any more for immigration reform – we’ve changed our position and now we’re just trying to save every person who is arrested,” Carlos Garcia, director of the Phoenix-based community organization Puente (Bridge), told Efe.

Many deportation cases in Arizona arise from Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s controversial workplace raids.

An example, Garcia said, is that of the Figueroas, who in 2009 were arrested by Maricopa deputies while they were working at a Phoenix-area carwash.

Their U.S.-born daughter, Katheryn Figueroa, then 9, found out about her parents’ arrest when she was watching television and saw them handcuffed.

“Katheryn’s story is an example of the pain and suffering many kids go through when their parents are arrested in our state,” the activist said.

The girl, backed by organizations like Puente, has struggled to have her story heard – she even went to Washington to testify before a congressional committee.

Though her parents were released, they still face the threat of deportation, with their next hearing set for Wednesday.

Garcia said that in the last three months, Puente has “closed” 40 deportation cases and is currently working on another 65.

“The truth is we don’t win them all. The truth is that sometimes there are deportations, but we have won most cases,” he said.

Some Arizona activists take more extreme measures, such as Raul Alcaraz, representative of the South Tucson Workers Center, who twice in the past five months has tried to stop an arrest by laying down in front of a Border Patrol vehicle.

“Here in Tucson we’re seeing a war against immigrants, so we can’t talk about immigration reform, only about stopping deportations,” Alcaraz said. EFE

Colombia Medellin ( 4 hacked to death - Mother ,daughter and grandparents )

BOGOTA – Four members of the same family in the northwestern city of Medellin were hacked to death with a machete, Colombian authorities said Monday.

The Medellin Mayor’s Office and the National Police on Monday offered a reward of 40 million pesos ($21,160) for information instrumental in solving the crime.

The multiple murders occurred on Sunday in a house in Comuna 13, a sprawling cluster of slums on the edge of Colombia’s second city.

The dead included a 6-year-old girl, her mother and maternal grandparents, police said.

The head of the Medellin Metropolitan Police, Gen. Jose Angel Mendoza, told reporters that inside the house authorities found a “distasteful scene,” given that the victims were killed by at least one assailant with a machete.

Among the hypotheses authorities are considering is that the crime could be a case of intrafamily violence. EFE

TUCSON - A former Tucson Police Department officer is in custody of the Pima County Jail facing 2 counts of Aggravated Assault, according to officials.
Kyle McCartin, 23, was fired from the Tucson Police Department following his arrest Tuesday morning, according to Tucson Police Department spokesman Sgt. Chris Widmer.

The incident began when the Pima County Sheriff's Department was called to the Giant Gas Station, located on Sunrise Drive near Kolb Road, for reports of an assault with a deadly weapon, according to Pima County Sheriff's Department spokesman Deputy Jesus Banuelos.
The store clerk told deputies that 2 men went into the store wearing bullet proof vests and seemed very intoxicated, Banuelos said.


During the sales transaction, one of the men, identified as McCartin, pulled out a handgun and pointed it at the clerk, Banuelos added. The other man told McCartin to put the gun away, but he pointed it at the clerk again.
Both men were gone before deputies arrived, Banuelos said.
Deputies searched the area and both men were found a short time later at a nearby apartment complex, Banuelos said.
McCartin never demanded anything from the clerk during the incident, Banuelos added.
Tucson Police Department has launched an Internal Affairs investigation, and as a result, McCartin was fired Tuesday morning, Widmer said.
McCartin was hired by the Tucson Police Department in September 2012 and was on a probationary status with the department due to his tenure with the agency, Widmer said.
