Accra, July 10, GNA - Frederica Mensah-Davies, the Public Relation Officer of the National Sports Authority (NSA) says the NSA does not know exactly when renovation works at the Accra Sports Stadium would start.

Three sections of the Accra Sports Stadium (VVIP, VIP and Media Stands) were closed down last week due to its deplorable state.

Mrs Mensah-Davies told the GNA Sports that it was appropriate to close down the stands to avoid any unforeseen disaster.

She said the decision to close the stands was as a result of a directive from the Ministry of Youth and Sports and that the NSA does not know exactly when the renovation works would begin.

"The VVIP, VIP and the Media Stands are in a bad state and very risky for people to sit there, so the Minister told us to close it down as soon as possible.

"We do not know when the renovations would begin but I am sure the Minister is working hard on it. They have to secure procurement and I think it would take some time.

"We have not been given any exact date but I think they would start work after this league season, Frederica Mensah-Davis said.

Uttar Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister and BJP state president Keshav Prasad Maurya on Sunday said that the administration is preparing to invoke the National Security Act (NSA) against those accused of killing five men in Unchahar area of Rae Bareli district on June 26.

Confirming this, the officiating Rae Bareli SP Shashi Shekhar Singh said preparations are on to invoke the NSA.

Since the killings, the BJP administration had reached out to the victims kin, who were all from the Brahmin community. Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath had announced a Rs 5 lakh compensation to each of the victims kin, and several Brahmin leaders of the party had issued statements giving assurance of strict action against the culprits.

A day earlier, however, state Labour Minister Swami Prasad Maurya seemed to question the partys response calling the victims goons, mafia and criminals who had come to kill the son of the village pradhan.

Meanwhile, Akhil Bharatiya Brahmin Vichar Manch, an organisation supported by Manoj Pandey, Samajwadi Party MLA from Unchahar, protested in Lucknow on Sunday.

They demanded invoking of the NSA against the accused, increasing the compensation for victims to Rs 20 lakh and providing a government job to one of the victims dependents. Police had to briefly detain the protesters to maintain order and released them after shifting them to the Reserve Police Line, an officer said.

MSNBC host Rachel Maddow warned other media outletson Thursdaythat she believes she was provided forged National Security Agency documents alleging collusion between a Trump campaign official andRussia's efforts to influence last year's presidential election.

I feel like I need to send this up like a flare for other news organizations in particular, Maddow said on her programThursday night.

Somebody, for some reason, appears to be shopping a fairly convincing fake NSA document that purports to directly implicate somebody from the Trump campaign in working with the Russians in their attack in the election, she said.

Maddow explained that she and her producers compared the document they received with a leaked NSA document published last month by The Intercept. That document quickly resulted in the arrest of a 26-year-old federal contractor, Reality Winner.

Maddow said she thinks the document she received was created by copying elements of the document published by The Intercept.

The MSNBC host made a similar allegation back in March when she suggested Trump himself may have leaked his 2005 tax documents.

He's the only person who could leak it without concern of being sued by Trump or anyone else, she said at the time. They're trying to threaten us for publishing them which is complete bull.

David Cay Johnston, the reporter who obtained the tax documents, also said while discussing the documents on The Rachel Maddow ShowTuesdaythat Trump could have been behind the leak, as did MSNBC "Morning Joe"co-host Joe Scarborough.
