Zimbabwe opposition leader arrested and charged with treason
Tsvangirai, head of the Movement for Democratic Change (MDC), was arrested after a news conference in which he vowed to press ahead with protests against Mr Mugabe, whom he accuses of being an illegitimate and increasingly incompetent leader.
Police spokesman Wayne Bvudzijena said Mr Tsvangirai was being charged with treason in connection with a series of statements since the disputed March 2002 elections that allegedly incited his supporters to violence.
