THIS IS A RUSH TRANSCRIPT. THIS COPY MAY NOT BE IN ITS FINAL FORM AND MAY BE UPDATED.

[08:00:29] KRISTIE LU STOUT, HOST: I'm Kristie Lu Stout in Hong Kong and welcome to News Stream.

Now, new appointments to Theresa May's cabinet continue to file into 10 Downing Street. But the new British prime minister's choice for foreign

secretary, that continues to grab the spotlight.

Now, Wall Street is preparing for the market debut of the messaging app Line. It is set to raise a billion dollars, but it is still struggling

for users outside of Asia.

And all eyes are Donald Trump as he prepares to reveal his running mate.

Now, Britain's new prime minister is wasting no time. In her first 24 hours in office with some major changes. At the most high profile

political casualty is this man, the former justice secretary, Michael Gove. Now, he's well-known for spearheading Britain's campaign to leave the

European Union, but he's out. And Theresa May has to finalize her government before begining the task of completing the Brexit.

Now, Mrs. May's cabinet shuffle is one of the most sweeping in years. In the past few hours, Downing Street announced that Liz Truss will take

over for Michael Gove as Justice Secretary.

Justine Greening is the UK's new education secretary and that is all in addition to six key hirings late on Wednesday including the

controversial choice of Boris Johnson as UK foreign secretary.

Let's get more now on the shape of Theresa may's new cabinet with our contributor Robin Oakley who joins us outside 10 Downing Street.

And Robin, many, many people across the world are still scratching their heads, stunned by that one key hiring decision by Theresa May, Boris

Johnson. Why did she choose him as the new foreign secretary?

ROBIN OAKLEY, CNN POLITICAL CONTRIBUTOR: It has to be said, Kristie, that when we first heard the rumors that Boris Johnson was going to be the

new foreign secretary, people out here, the mass media from across the world were saying it must be a joke. But it isn't a joke. And it is a

very highly controversial appointment.

It's an unexpected appointment in that a week ago we were all writing Boris Johnson's epitaph

after his failed bid to be the Conservative leader and prime minister himself. Now we've all had to write revised CVs for him.

And, of course, problem for Boris Johnson is not only has he been a politician, he's also been a

successful journalist with a highly paid column for many years. In that column, he sometimes comes forward with descriptions which are now going to

come back to haunt him. As, for example, describing Hillary Clinton as looking like a sadistic nurse in a mental hospital. As a leave campaigner

in the referendum, he attacked President Barack Obama, talking about his part Kenyan ancestry and suggesting that made him an anti-colonialist and

anti-British.

He had to -- he got involved in problems on a visit to Israel. He had to apologize to the citizens of Liverpool for things he said about them.

So why does a cautious, careful leader of the party, like Theresa May, appoint Boris Johnson to such a sensitive position? It can only be because

she wants him as one of the leading Brexiters, the leave campaigners, to go around the world trying to explain why Britain will have an advantage from

this decision because she said Brexit means Brexit, it's got to go ahead.

He is a charming politician. He does get on with people. He's a showman in an age when many

politicians are dismissed as gray and uninteresting figures, so that is the gamble that she's taken.

But we'll have to wait and see whether Boris Johnson actually self- combusts in this new position, Kristie.

LU STOUT: So Boris Johnson, the showman, the Brexiteer, he's in, but Michael Gove is out. What's your thinking on his political fate?

OAKLEY: Yes. I mean, there is another person who joined Theresa May in the battle to be party leader, having knifed Boris Johnson first.

Theresa May is said to prize loyalty very highly, and of course Michael Gove is not exactly renowned for his record of loyalty first

to David Cameron and then to Boris Johnson.

It's a big risk, though. And this is why it's so -- apparently cautious politician like Theresa May

has surprised us all with such a sweeping set of appointments, because she's put two big beasts on the back benches. She's only got a small

majority in parliament, only 12, so people in her own party who can rock the boat is a risk.

Michael Gove has already demonstrated his taste for political intrigue, so he is a big beast on the back benches, so is the former

occupant of 11 Downing Street, George Osbourne, the chancellor of the exchequer, who helped David Cameron reform the British economy. No room

for him in Theresa May's cabinet, so he, too, could be a big figure on the back benches if things start to go wrong for her, Kristie..

[08:05:42] LU STOUT: And let's talk about the new chancellor who was named, because of course the decision to leave the EU has had a huge impact

on the value of the currency and the markets and business confidence in Britain. Will the new British chancellor, Philip Hammond, will he be able

to restore confidence?

OAKLEY: Well, he's certainly seen as a safe pair of hands. The interesting thing will be with him what he can do to fulfill Theresa May's

commitments to help the struggling middle class and working class families. She's trying to reunite the political classes and those who feel left out

in the prosperity of globalism.

And the new chancellor is going to be tasked with some of the economic reforms, which she says David Cameron's team didn't push through. She's

talking about having workers on company boards. She's talking about publishing the ratios between how much the top guy in a company earns and

the floor sweeper down at the bottom. Lots of talk of reforming crony capitalism and getting at the

high earners who don't really deserve their rewards.

So that's an interesting task for the new chancellor. But he's seen as a cautious guy, a bit of a fiscal hawk, and I think we'll have to see

how it goes over the next few weeks and months. But at the moment there's no controversy over the appointment of Philip Hammond, experienced as

foreign secretary, to be the new chancellor, Kristie.

LU STOUT: All right, Robin Oakley at 10 Downing Street for us. Thank you.

And to another surprise move now, this time from the world of economics, not politics here. The Bank of England is holding interest

rates at half a percent. A cut had been widely expected.

And Maggie Lake is going to have much more on hat on CNN Money in just under an hour from now here on CNN.

Now, I want to turn our attention now to Syria, to a life and death battle that's being fought there every day in countless hospitals and

clinics.

It is, to say the least, an uphill fight to save human lives ravaged by that brutal war that's dragged on for years.

Now, doctor Samer Attar, he bore witness to just gut-wrenching scenes in the besieged city of Aleppo. We're going to have more on his exclusive

interview with CNN's Nima Elbagir in just a moment.

But first let's get you up to date on the situation on the ground in Syria.

In the north, ISIS is still holding a lot of territory there, including its de facto capital of Raqqah. The United States is now helping

a coalition of Arab and Kurdish forces fight back.

And to the west of Aleppo, it is an ongoing fierce battle between the rebels and the Syrian army

supported by the Russians.

And a cease-fire, that's done very little to calm things down. According to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, in the last 80 days,

air strikes and artillery fire have killed or injured more than 6,000 people.

Let's bring in Nima Elbagir. She who joins me live Khateh, Turkey where she interviewed Doctor Samer Attar.

And Nima first a warning to our viewers that some of the video that they're going to see is hard

to watch, very disturbing. Please share with us what Dt. Attar, a witness to the siege in Aleppo, what did he share with you?

NIMA ELBAGIR, CNN INTERNATIONAL CORRESPONDENT: Well, it seems almost unthinkable, doesn't it, Kristie, that the situation in Syria could be

getting worse. And yet it is.

And Dr. Atar was one of the rare few who was able to escape from Aleppo. In fact, his was the last car to travel along the Kasela (ph) road

supply route into Aleppo before it was finally fully ensieged by the Syrian government forces. And he spoke to us about some of the horrifying

decisions that he alongside with the Syrian doctors and nurses had to make in his weeks inside that town. Take a listen.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

DR. SAMER ATTAR, ORTHOPEDIC SURGEON: We had to stop doing CPR on a child that was severely injured in order to save someone else who was

bleeding to death who we knew could be save.

ELBAGIR: And the child couldn't?

ATTAR: The child could have if we had the personnel and the resources, but when you have that many people who are injured, you have to

make decisions on who you are going to save and you you have to leave behind. And those are not easy decisions even for the most seasoned

doctors, those are decisions that gnaw at you forever.

But in Syria, those are the decisions that these doctors make every single day.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

[08:10:07] ELBAGIR: And now in the midst of all that comes hunger. Dr. Attar was telling us that for some time now, at least for those in

Aleppo, there has been some respite, some fresh fruit, some supplies in the marketplaces. But with this siege, Aleppo will now add hunger and

starvation to the list of what its citizens have had to attempt to survive for the last five years, Kristie.

LU STOUT: You know, just listening to the doctor's testimony, we get just a little better understanding of the reality on the ground in Aleppo,

a city under siege. Just all violence there and horrific decisions that doctors have to make about life and death and who

they can save because of what they have or may not have.

There was supposed to be a cease-fire in place. There was supposed to be a truce so this thing wouldn't be going on. Why is it not being

honored?

ELBAGIR: Well, there were so many provisos to that truce as far as the Russian forces who have been the backbone of the support for the Syrian

government, that almost very quickly it became apparent that the cease- fire, if indeed it had even held, was a cease-fire really in name only.

So many of these forces like the opposition groups, the Russianing and the Syrian government, call terrorists so they didn't think they should be

party to any kind of cessation of hostilities. But in addition to that daily bombardment of those front line positions, what Dr Attar described to

us was a bombardment of hospitals, a targeting of medical professionals, because when you hit a hospital, Dr. Attar said -- his colleagues in Syria

were explaining to him you're not just killing that one doctor, you're killing potentially those hundreds of patients who would seek help from

that doctor. You're dismantling even further any will for those people to remain, to resist and to survive.

He told me one story about a little boy whose family brought him in whose insides were gaping

out. And those doctors worked for hours on that little boy only to have him go home and still succumb to shock. So in addition to this

extraordinary bravery and commitment, they are now themselves targets. And that bombardment is going on every single day.

And with this siege, Kristie, potentially very quickly we're going to see the fuel lines inside Aleppo dry up, so those hospitals that are

already driven underground by bombardment, those doctors will be working in the dark, Kristie.

LU STOUT: A very stark picture of the suffering inside the Syrian city of Aleppo. Nima Elbagir reporting for us. Thank you so much for

that, Nima. Take care.

Now, you've just Nima's report on especially the children suffering from violence, suffering from this ongoing war in Syria. If you want to

help, INARA is an organization that was started by our own Arwa Damon. It provides life-saving medical care for injured children and young people.

And to learn more, go to their website, INARA.org.

Let's take you to Italy next where families are facing the very painful task of identifying the bodies of loved ones who were killed in

that train collision on Tuesday.

Now, one by one relatives were calledinto the hospital mortuary in Bari (ph). 23 people died in the crash, 50 others were injured. And

meanwhile, a prosecutor says human error may be to blame.

Will Ripley has the latest on the investigation.

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)

WILL RIPLEY, CNN CORRESPONDENT (voice-over): This is where the passengers were sitting on two trains heading in the opposite direction at

more than 100 kilometers or more than 60 miles per hour when they collided. And you could see train car shredded apart. These are the cars more intact.

You can see the piles of twisted metal. Those were the front of both trains.

And the police here on the scene say the passengers in those cars didn't have a chance and may not have even known what happened.

We met Giuseppe Castillano, who identified his father's body because of a cigar cutter he just brought back with him he just brought back from a

vacation in Cuba.

GIUSEPPE CASTELLANO, IDENTIFIED FATHER'S BODY: That morning, he was supposed to get on the train with my daughter. Fortunately, my daughter

woke up and wasn't feeling well. It saved her life.

RIPLEY (on camera): Investigators are still working out here on the scene tonight. Some of them have been awake for more than 24 hours. They

have already uncovered some crucial pieces of evidence.

(voice-over): The head of the Regional Railway Police says there are significant elements coming out of the two black boxes. But he says they're

not the only elements. He says they've seized documents and video that will help to clarify what happened.

(on camera): The key question for investigators, was this a technical problem or human error? We know these trains are relatively new and modern,

but they were on an old part of train track that relied on an antiquated phone system. We know 23 people have died.

(voice-over): For the firefighters who have been out here, first, looking for survivors and then for the bodies, it's been grueling, it's

been exhausting and very painful. They found a mother who was holding her young child, both of them died. But they also found a 6- year-old boy who

was wedged behind a piece of metal and they were able to rescue him.

The national firefighter spokesman says, "When we found him, he was alone, he was scared, he was asking for his grandparents. We had to care

for him physically, but also emotionally."

That boy's grandparents did not survive. They were killed along with almost two dozen others in this mangled mess of a train. That little boy's

name is Samuel (ph). We're told today is his birthday.

Just one life, so many that are forever changed because of what happened here.

Will Ripley, CNN, Andria (ph), Italy.

(END VIDEOTAPE)

[08:16:05] LU STOUT: So much loss there. You're watching News Stream right here on CNN. And still to come on the program, now Wall Street is

preparing for a major tech IPO, the biggest one of the year, of the Japanese messaging app -- it's called Line. It's set to go public, but it

is finding it very hard to grow outside of Asia.

Also ahead, who is going to stand beside Donald Trump as he makes his bid for the White House? The names on his short list for vice president.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

LU STOUT: All right, coming to you live from Hong Kong. You're back watching News

Stream. And Wall Street is preparing for the biggest tech IPO of the year. The Japanese messaging app Line makes its debut in New York in about an

hour from now. It is expected to raise more than a billion dollars. It has over 200 million monthly users, but the vast majority are here in Asia.

It is popular in Japan, Thailand, Indonesia and Taiwan.

So what makes ?ine different to WhatsApp, WeChat and all the other messaging apps out there? Well, simply: character. Line is famous for

stickers, animated graphics that people can use in Line chats. Think of them as sort of like bigger or more expressive version of emoji.

Now, Line's own characters are so popular that there are stores across Asia selling toys and

t-shirts based on the app. But you don't have to use line's own characters. You can also buy sticker packs with other company's characters

like those featuring Nintendo's Mario.

And like any modern chat, Line does much more than just message. It has mobile payments, news and a music streaming service.

But for all the app's features, Line still hasn't figured out how to grow outside Asia. So, let's get more now on all of this with CNN Money's

digital correspondent Paul La Monica. He joins us now live from the New York Stock Exchange.

Paul, good to see you. We know there in the U.S. all eyes and Wall Street, as all Silicon Valley, fixed online and the big IPO, but not many

people there have downloaded the app? Is that going to change after the IPO?

[08:20:07] PAUL LA MONICA, CNN MONEY: Yeah, I think it's going to be very interesting to see if you wind up with more American users as a result

of the press that Line is getting because of its IPO behind me right here at the New York Stock Exchange. You see the big green banner on the screen

there.

What is interesting as you pointed out, Kristie, is that Line is differentiating itself with those stickers which are very, very cute.

There was a huge brown bear, inflatable brown bear outside the exchange this morning, one of their most famous characters. But they face so much

competition -- Facebook, obviously owns WhatsApp, and then in Asia you have WeChat also, which is owned by Ten Cent, the gigantic Chinese conglomerate.

LU STOUT: Yeah, it is a crowded space, isn't it? You've Wechat by Ten Cent, you have WhatsApp, you have SnapChat. They're all very, very

dominant. They all want to be the king of messaging.

Line does have character. It has these stickers. Is that enough? What's going to give Line an

advantage here?

LA MONICA: I think they're hoping that a more diverse product offering will help them in addition to the stickers. They do have games as

well. They are trying to find other ways to generate ad revenue like pretty much all digital media companies want to do.

There does seem to be some excitement about this IPO, though, and hopes that it will do reasonably well in its debut here and then also

tomorrow in Tokyo.

And if it does do well, perhaps this could set the stage for more unicorns. Even though Line isn't technically a unicorn, even though it's

going to have a more billion dollar values, it's a spinoff of another company. Everyone is waiting for Uber and SnapChat and AirBNB and

companies like that to finally file and go public and really reinvigorate what's been a pretty moribund tech sector for startups in the last couple

of years, at least companies going public.

LU STOUT: Yeah, this year particularly so with Line being only the fifth tech company to

go IPO this year.

A final question for you before you go, Paul, about messaging apps in general. You know, we know that they're big. We know that they are

clocking in major user growth, but they're brand new. They're coming from a low user base. So, in the long run is this going to be the platform that

will continue to grow for years to come? Your thoughts on that.

LA MONICA: That is a great question. I think obviously what we've seen in the past couple of years is a continued evolution of social media.

Remember, the big criticism of Facebook when they went public, oh, they're so wedded o the desktop, but then they went full speed and had a

mobile presence pretty much immediately. But what's going to be next? Is there going to be something beyond mobile?

I think all these companies are grappling with that and I think that's why they're trying to have all these snazzy features like these characters

that you see online to try to keep users at those sites and those apps for a much longer time.

LU STOUT: Yeah, whatever it takes to entice the punters (ph). Paul La Monica joining us live

from the New York Stock Exchange. Thank you, take care.

Now, a Chinese hacker is going to spend almost four years in a U.S. prison for stealing secret

military data. Now, Su Beam (ph) with the help of the Chinese army, downloaded files on the

Boeing C-17 -- now, it's a strategic transport aircraft. Now, he also took data on U.S. fighter jets, and despite the sentence, Beijing denies claims

it steals secrets from U.S. companies.

Now, U.S. congressional report also accuses Beijing of hacking into the U.S. Federal Deposit

Insurance Corporation. Other reports say the agency's top officials hid the attack, which happened during a span of three years from 2010 to 2013.

Now, Donald Trump says he is going to announce his vice presidential running mate on Friday. He tweeted the news last night. And it has been a

frantic few days as the presumptive Republican presidential nominee weighs his options.

Trump's announcement will come just days before the Republican convention in Cleveland, Ohio. And CNN's Phil Mattingly joins me now live

from Cleveland.

Phil, good to see you. The Trump VP pick, it's going to be happening tomorrow. Of course, he used Twitter to announce it. Walk us through the

contenders.

PHIL MATTINGLY, CNN CORRESPONDENT: We know the place. We know the time. We even know the location -- New York City. We just don't know who

it's going to be. Now, sources saying there are three very clear candidates that Donald Trump, his children and his top advisers are really

working through right now.

Newt Gingrich, former House speaker, Mike Pence, the governor of Indiana, and Chris Christie, a close adviser to Trump and the current

governor of New Jersey. But as I said, the big question, who's he going to pick? Sources saying even Trump might not know that answer.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

NEWT GINGRICH, (R) FORMER HOUSE SPEAKER: My hunch is he is flying to California thinking about, you know, Gingrich/Pence.

MATTINGLY: Former house speaker Newt predicting Trump's choice for vice president is between him and Indiana Governor Mike Pence.

GINGRICH: Do you really want a two pirate ticket, or do you want to pick a very solid guy?

MATTINGLY: Trump himself says he's whittled down the field.

DONALD TRUMP, (R) PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE: I'm at three, potentially four, but in my own mind I probably am thinking about two.

[08:25:08] MATTINGLY: Sources tell CNN that New Jersey Governor Chris Christie remains a finalist, with Trump looking for a fighter, even though

he is now hinting at quite the opposite.

TRUMP: I'm not looking for an attack dog. Frankly, I'm looking for somebody that really understands what we're talking about because I would

rather have the whole thing be on policy.

MATTINGLY: Trump's search for a V.P. entering a frenzied phase in the final round. It's playing out like a reality show in Indiana. First,

meeting privately with Pence and the Trump children at the governor's mansion.

GOV. MIKE PENCE, (R) INDIANA: Nothing was offered, nothing was accepted.

MATTINGLY: And with Gingrich, who flew out on a private plane met by FOX News host Sean Hannity, to meet with Trump. Trump also speaking on the

phone with his former rival, Christi, about the V.P. role. They are known to talk daily.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Do you know where you think you stand in the V.P. process?

GOV. CHRIS CHRISTIE, (R) NEW JERSEY: I can't, but it is good to see you.

MATTINGLY: A source familiar with the process telling CNN Trump's influential older children are worried their father will make a decision

they don't like.

This, as Hillary Clinton intensifies her attacks against the New York billionaire, all ahead of his big announcement.

HILLARY CLINTON, (D) PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE: His campaign is as divisive as any we have seen in our lifetimes.

MATTINGLY: Deriding the GOP for turning to Trump.

CLINTON: This man is the nominee of the party of Lincoln. We are watching it become the party of Trump. And that's not just a huge loss for

our democracy. It is a threat to it.

MATTINGLY: The clock is also ticking on who will speak at next week's Republican Convention. The Trump campaign has yet to publicly release a

list of speakers, but we already know the party's past nominees and living former presidents will not be there.

(END VIDEOTAPE)

MATTINGLY: And, Kristie, we are starting to get a look now at some of those speakers for next week. And it's a cross-section. It's exactly

what Trump predicted. It's not going to be your conventional convention. We've got actors, we've got athletes, and we do have Republican officials

as well.

But if you compare it to past Republican conventions, this is a very different convention. Pretty much exactly what Donald Trump telegraphed it

was going to be,Kristie.

LU STOUT: The wait is almost over for the convention. Of course the big announcement

happening tomorrow. Phil Mattingly, thank you.

Now, France is celebrating Bastille Day. Now, the national holiday marks the beginning of the French revolution in 1789. Now, troops marched

down the Champs Elysees in Paris for the annual military parade. Thousands flocked there to watch. And President Francois Hollande led the

celebration.

You're watching News Stream. And still ahead, the young victims of Venezuela's economic crisis -- sick children who are struggling to survive

because hospitals don't have the medical supplies to save them.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

(HEADLINES)

[08:31:27] LU STOUT: Now, Venezuela is lurching from one crisis to another. Its economic collapse has caused scars like these, a starving

population lining up for hours just for the basics, including food. So it was just a matter of time before young lives started to become threatened.

Now, as Paula Newton reports, the pediatric hospital in Caracas is in decay and it, too, lacks the basics.

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)

PAULA NEWTON, CNN CORRESPONDENT (voice-over): Like any mother, Lucera Rodriguez (ph) is anxious to be with her son in intensive care. You can see

it, how her touch so comforts Dylan (ph). And yet this mother says it's agony knowing that there is much more he needs that she can't give him.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE (through translator): At this point, things are getting worse and worse. We can't get medical supplies for the baby. We

can't even find the formula he needs to grow. Now we're making sacrifices.

I've been in this hospital for 15 days and have witnessed how children are dying every day.

NEWTON (voice-over): And doctors tell us that's a real risk for Dylan. He has cystic fibrosis. It damages the lungs and digestive system. Right

now the medical team works hard to expunge dangerous mucus.

But here in Venezuela, Dylan can't get the antibiotics or any of the other specialized medicine he needs to help him survive. But Dylan's not

alone,

Dr. Nyadas Surbena (ph) says, standing by his side. Seventy percent to 80 percent of the medicines children need in Venezuela haven't arrived at

Caracas' pediatric hospital -- or anywhere else -- for months and then cancer patients are left untreated.

NEWTON: The sad truth is, pediatric oncology has been completely shut down in this hospital. Chemo is being done here but the doctors tell us

that the medicines are still completely inadequate.

NEWTON (voice-over): Six-year-old Gustavo has leukemia but instead of intensive therapy, his is sporadic. His mother, Gabriela Mota (ph) worries

about when he'll have his next chemo treatment, having already seen four children die without it.

"I don't know whose fault it is," she explains, "if it's the government or the opposition or XYZ, I don't know. It's sad for us to

suffer, for whoever did this to our children."

NEWTON: Do you have any doubt that children are dying because these medicines...

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Yes, of course, totally. We have intensive care unit, it's about 10 beds, we only are working with four.

NEWTON: Why?

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: That means -- because we don't have medical supplies. We don't have enough nurses.

We have to work in these conditions.

NEWTON (voice-over): Dr. Urbina (ph) takes us to ICU and shows us the leaks, the mold, the derelict conditions.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: And you will see this area, four years ago, there was a fire.

NEWTON (voice-over): Four years: still, this wing hasn't been rebuilt. You can see why Dr. Urbina (ph) says most days he and his colleagues feel

they are practicing wartime medicine: shattered wards, broken equipment, festering toilets.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: We have to deal with that because we love our children, we love our hospital, we love Venezuela. And even though this --

you are looking at -- we have to work.

NEWTON (voice-over): Parents carry on, too. This is an intimate moment, as Lucera (ph) showers Dylan with all the love she can, still

burdened by what is not in short supply here: despair.

Paula Newton, CNN, Caracas.

(END VIDEOTAPE)

[08:35:07] LU STOUT: Such a heartbreaking report there.

You're watching News Stream. And still ahead on the program, we are going to share with you an inspiring story, a story of survival. How one

woman is leading the fight against sex trafficking after falling victim to it.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

LU STOUT: Now, a survivor of human trafficking is now teaching others how to see, how to spot signs of the illegal trade. Now, she's working

with police in Canada. And Clare Sebastian has her story in this latest installment of the CNN Freedom Project.

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)

TIMEA NAGY, SEX TRAFFICKING SURVIVOR (voice-over): My life was ticking away from me.

CLARE SEBASTIAN, CNN CORRESPONDENT (voice-over): When she turned 30, Timea Nagy got a tattoo of the letters "YYZ" on her shoulder, the code for

Toronto Pearson International Airport.

NAGY (voice-over): I traveled through the airport every single time I go through. There isn't a moment when I don't think about what happened

when I came. Not once.

SEBASTIAN (voice-over): It's a symbol of the two Torontos she now inhabits, the city where she found herself forced into the sex trade at the

age of 19 and where, almost two decades, later she helps lead the fight against human trafficking.

NAGY (voice-over): My club where I was kept the second time.

SEBASTIAN (voice-over): For two days, Timea Nagy is letting us into her life on both sides of her city. And it's hectic. Her first meeting is

with police sergeant Ron Kapuscinski (ph), who leads one of the city's dedicated human trafficking units.

Her self-esteem is exceptionally low.

SEBASTIAN (voice-over): He and his team need her advice on a victim they're trying to help.

Over the past six years, Nagy has trained 14,000 police officers how to spot the signs of human trafficking.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: We had no idea, she educated us on what we were seeing and, at the time we had no specific unit that was directly in charge

or specifically dealt with human trafficking incidents.

NAGY: You guys actually went to pick her up from...

UNIDENTIFIED MALE (voice-over): And she really did change the way our police service looked at and investigated human trafficking occurrences.

SEBASTIAN: So we're heading now to the motel where Timea Nagy was taken when she first arrived in Canada. This will only be the second time

that she's been back there in 18 years.

NAGY: So that's the entrance and that's...

SEBASTIAN (voice-over): It's a place that has come to signify just how important her work with police is, after a chance encounter at a training

session.

NAGY: It was about three years ago and I asked before this -- before the presentation if any of you seen a victim, (inaudible) hands up. And I

asked this gentleman in the back if he would share the story.

And he goes, no, I can't.

He waited until after everybody left. We went to the back. And he comes up to me and he was crying.

He goes, "I saw you. I was an undercover officer. I was put in -- right by your motel to watch for three months for drug operations. I

watched you coming and going out of that motel.

"How would I know?

"How was I supposed to know?"

My heart just sank.

SEBASTIAN (voice-over): In 2009, Nagy opened Canada's first-ever shelter for human trafficking victims. Last year, despite multiple awards

and recognition, it had to close because of a lack of funding.

[08:40:02] NAGY: It literally nearly kills me every time I get a message from a victim where they say, I can't do without you. My quest (ph)

is coming up.

I really appreciate all the awards. But I just wish that I could see all the sacrifice, you know, better lives, less girls being victimized

more, you know.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: The resources given to the police to go in and do the initial rescue is so critical.

SEBASTIAN (voice-over): She's joined forces with Ontario regional parliament member Laurie Scott to help push through a new bill designed to

protect trafficking victims.

NAGY: What an honor to be here.

SEBASTIAN (voice-over): And in her whirlwind schedule, she's now tackling the private sector, teaching American and Canadian bankers to spot

the signs of human trafficking.

NAGY: We train them on when we see the certain transactions, what does that mean, why do you think this is human trafficking and what do you do

with it?

It's a huge breakthrough because bankers and financial institutions can play a huge part on fighting this crime.

Thank you for listening

SEBASTIAN (voice-over): It's this fight that has given Timea Nagy her life back and her adopted city.

So coming back here now, 18 years later, do you have any regrets?

NAGY: None.

SEBASTIAN: None at all?

NAGY: None.

SEBASTIAN (voice-over): Clare Sebastian, CNN, Toronto, Canada.

LU STOUT: Wow, this woman is incredible.

Now, tomorrow we're going to take you to the red light district in Amsterdam where a former social worker is keep teaching job skills to

trafficking survivors. Now she partnered with the anti-trafficking charity Not for Sale. They opened a restaurant that teaches girls culinary skills

so they can learn a profession and they can start to rebuild their lives.

One young survivor explained how learning to cook changed her life.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: When I moved to the government shelter, it was difficult. I always wanted to kill myself. There was no energy in my

body. Whilst there, I asked about whether I wanted to go for training. I didn't know what Not for Sale meant, but afterwards I gave it some thought

and I said, you know what, I will just have a look for a day to see what it is.

I was happy there and afterwards I went again. I'm always happy when I cook.

LU STOUT: Now, watch and learn and hear more about how this program is helping girls reintegrate into society, this time tomorrow. It's part

of CNN's Freedom Project series. We're airing it all week right here on CNN.

Now, you may remember this from a week ago, ecstatic scientists at the NASA laboratory in

California cheering the successful entry of the Juno space probe into orbit around Jupiter. And now we have a very special image to show you. It is

the first picture of the giant picture taken by Juno coming to us from hundreds of millions of kilometers away.

And there you can see it. You can see Jupiter's famous great red spot along with three of its largest moons. Gorgeous.

Now, that is News Stream. I'm Kristie Lu Stout. But don't go anywhere, World Sport with Christina Macfarland is next.
