A day after the death of one of Italy's most popular and controversial church figures Cardinal Carlo Maria Martini, an interview has been published in which he strongly criticizes the Roman Catholic Church. The interview was with a fellow Jesuit priest. From Rome, David Willey.

Cardinal Martini said the church was 200 years behind the times and Catholics lacked confidence in it. "The church is tired", he said. "Our culture has grown old. Our church is big and empty. And the church bureaucracy rises up. Our religious rites and the vestments we wear are pompous.” He urged the Catholic church to recognize its errors and embark on a radical path of change, beginning with the Pope and his bishops. He said unless the church adopts a more generous attitude towards divorced persons, it'll lose the allegiance of future generations.

Early results from the general election in Angola suggests the formerly Maxist-ruling party the MPLA has won three quarters of all votes, only slightly down on the previous ballot. If confirmed, the outcome means president Jose Eduardo dos Santos, who's been in power for more than three decades will get another term. Louise Redvers reports from Rwanda.

The MPLA's victory has never been in doubt. The question was how much it would win by. With half of the votes counted, it seems it is on course to securing a large majority in parliament. The election, only the second since the end of Angola's three decades of civil war in 2002 has been dogged by claims of regularities. UNITA, who has led the criticism accused the MPLA of trying to fix the vote has said it may not accept the final results.
