As Cyprus' financial bailout gets personal, we discuss what it means for the Eurozone.

The latest as Cyprus tries to come to terms with its £9 billion bailout. Plus, what track did you chose to be added to Up All Night's virtual jukebox?

News from home and abroad with Dotun Adebayo

We look at the plight of Cyprus, as the country and its residents come to terms with a new financial bailout package which could see part of everyone's private accounts being used to foot the bill. Journalist Stefanos Evripidou warns us that this new way of dealing with a bailout could raise alarm bells in other struggling countries in the eurozone, and questions what would happen if people in Italy or Spain started emptying their accounts to protect their funds.

As a female tourist is apparently gang raped in India, we return to the country knocked by headlines ever since the rape and murder of a student in December. This time, a Swiss tourist says she was attacked by 8 men in the central state of Madhya Pradesh. More than 24 people have been detained by police. Delhi journalist Jyoti Malhotra says nothing is known about the people arrested, but says the case is on the front pages of all the papers. She tells us there is a definite increase in India in the number of sexual assaults happening as society changes from a patriarchal and violent society, but the law is failing to keep pace.

From little known reggae to the Beatles - just some of your suggestions to join the Up All Night soundtrack. Dotun and Mark Webster play your music and hear why your favourite track should be on our Virtual Jukebox.
