Clive Stafford Smith spent years working as a death row lawyer in the southern states of the US before becoming the legal director of the UK branch of Reprieve. Reprieve is a not-for-profit organization that has long campaigned for the rights of death row prisoners. However, since 2002 it has helped liberate prisoners from Guantanamo Bay -- a campaign led by Stafford Smith himself.

Not only has Stafford Smith seen first hand the inside of the prison, he\'s also maintained relationships with former detainees and built relationships with those currently on hunger strike. The hunger strike in Guantanamo began on February 11th, 2013 and it\'s got to a stage where some prisoners are being force fed, arguably in violation of their human rights.

Three anti-government protesters are killed after being shot during a pro-EU rally in the Ukrainian capital.

This came as police began removing barricades set up by protesters in Kiev. Demonstrators and police have been facing off for several days in downtown Kiev. The standoff has attracted hundreds of thousands of protesters. There are also reports of some arrests. The new chain of events comes a day after Russia told European governments to stop meddling in Ukraine\'s domestic affairs. Moscow warned the crisis on its dooryards is getting out of control. Protests are being held against a government decision to scrap a trade deal with the European Union.

China\'s princelings storing riches in Caribbean offshore haven
_Relatives of political leaders including China\'s current president and former premier named in trove of leaked documents from the British Virgin Islands

* More than a dozen family members of China\'s top political and military leaders are making use of offshore companies based in the British Virgin Islands, leaked financial documents reveal.

The brother-in-law of China\'s current president, Xi Jinping, as well as the son and son-in-law of former premier Wen Jiabao are among the political relations making use of the offshore havens, financial records show.

_ The documents also disclose the central role of major Western banks and accountancy firms, including PricewaterhouseCoopers, Credit Suisse and UBS in the offshore world, acting as middlemen in the establishing of companies.

The Hong Kong office of Credit Suisse, for example, established the BVI company Trend Gold Consultants for Wen Yunsong, the son of Wen Jiabao, during his father\'s premiership — while PwC and UBS performed similar services for hundreds of other wealthy Chinese individuals.

Clive Stafford Smith spent years working as a death row lawyer in the southern states of the US before becoming the legal director of the UK branch of Reprieve. Reprieve is a not-for-profit organization that has long campaigned for the rights of death row prisoners. However, since 2002 it has helped liberate prisoners from Guantanamo Bay -- a campaign led by Stafford Smith himself. Not only has Stafford Smith seen first hand the inside of the prison, he's also maintained relationships with former detainees and built relationships with those currently on hunger strike. The hunger strike in Guantanamo began on February 11th, 2013 and it's got to a stage where some prisoners are being force fed, arguably in violation of their human rights. VICE Meets discusses Guantanamo and the future of drone warfare -- which Reprieve condemns as "the death penalty without trial".

Three anti-government protesters are killed after being shot during a pro-EU rally in the Ukrainian capital. This came as police began removing barricades set up by protesters in Kiev. Demonstrators and police have been facing off for several days in downtown Kiev. The standoff has attracted hundreds of thousands of protesters. There are also reports of some arrests. The new chain of events comes a day after Russia told European governments to stop meddling in Ukraine's domestic affairs. Moscow warned the crisis on its dooryards is getting out of control. Protests are being held against a government decision to scrap a trade deal with the European Union.

China's princelings storing riches in Caribbean offshore haven _Relatives of political leaders including China's current president and former premier named in trove of leaked documents from the British Virgin Islands * More than a dozen family members of China's top political and military leaders are making use of offshore companies based in the British Virgin Islands, leaked financial documents reveal. The brother-in-law of China's current president, Xi Jinping, as well as the son and son-in-law of former premier Wen Jiabao are among the political relations making use of the offshore havens, financial records show. _ The documents also disclose the central role of major Western banks and accountancy firms, including PricewaterhouseCoopers, Credit Suisse and UBS in the offshore world, acting as middlemen in the establishing of companies. The Hong Kong office of Credit Suisse, for example, established the BVI company Trend Gold Consultants for Wen Yunsong, the son of Wen Jiabao, during his father's premiership — while PwC and UBS performed similar services for hundreds of other wealthy Chinese individuals. The disclosure of China's use of secretive financial structures is the latest revelation from "Offshore Secrets", a two-year reporting effort led by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists (ICIJ), which obtained more than 200 gigabytes of leaked financial data from two companies in the British Virgin Islands, and shared the information with the Guardian and other international news outlets. In all, the ICIJ data reveals more than 21,000 clients from mainland China and Hong Kong have made use of offshore havens in the Caribbean, adding to mounting scrutiny of the wealth and power amassed by family members of the country's inner circle. As neither Chinese officials nor their families are required to issue public financial disclosures, citizens in the country and abroad have been left largely in the dark about the elite's use of offshore structures which can facilitate the avoidance of tax, or moving of money overseas. Between $1tn and $4tn in untraced assets have left China since 2000, according to estimates.
