Zimbabwean police say the secretary general of the main opposition party, the Democratic Movement for Change, will be charged with treason.
Tendai Biti was detained upon arriving at Harare International Airport on a flight from South Africa. Biti had been wanted by the authorities after announcing that the MDC had won the March 29 presidential and parliamentary elections before an official announcement was made. Meanwhile police have released opposition presidential candidate Morgan Tsvangirai after briefly detaining him on his way to address a campaign rally ahead of the country's June 27 run-off election.
