Tsvangirai

HARARE (Reuters):

Zimbabwe opposition leader Morgan Tsvangirai was briefly detained by police at his party headquarters yesterday and 10 other activists were arrested.

Police spokesman Wayne Bvudzijena said Tsvangirai, who leads the opposition Movement for Democratic Change (MDC), had not been arrested. Ten MDC officials were arrested on suspicion of being connected with a spate of petrol bombings.

Tsvangirai had been badly beaten after an earlier police crackdown this month, opposition spokesmen have said.
