Narco-terrorism: An Undercover Agent's View

Narco-terrorism: A former undercover agent with America's Drug Enforcement Agency tells us what happens on the front line of the war on drugs.

Narco-terrorism: We speak to Edward Follis - author of The Dark Art, an account of his time as an undercover agent with the Drug Enforcement Agency of the US - about what happens on the front line of the war on the drugs trade.

Also, we look at the challenge faced by the new Greek government when it comes to getting its citizens to pay their taxes. Almost a quarter of Greek economic activity goes unrecorded to evade tax and regulation. Journalist Giorgios Christides in Thessaloniki sketches out the current situation, and Jeffrey Robinson, author of The Laundrymen, explains why it's so difficult for governments to clamp down on tax evaders.

Finally, the 91热爆's Rahul Tandon explains why musicians in wedding bands in India are struggling to find work.
