Zimbabwe Opposition Leaders Arrested Again



Zimbabwe police arrested about 20 opposition leaders, including leader Morgan Tsvangirai (pictured above), after storming the opposition headquaters in Harare. Tsvangirai was apparently set to hold a press conference about the arrest and beating of opposition members, including himself, earlier this month.

Germany, the current EU President, has expressed concern, as have numerous other nations. Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe (bottom picture) is planned to attend a meeting of South African countries where these latest arrests will no doubt be a topic of discussion. No public reprimand is anticipated however.
