Detained Mugabe aide leaves UK

A member of Zimbabwe’s president Robert Mugabe’s regime tonight left Britain, less than 24 hours after he was detained and faced deportation.

Joshua Malinga, the ruling Zanu PF Party’s deputy secretary for disability, was held at Gatwick Airport last night while trying to board a flight for a disability conference in New York, and accused the British Government of being ‘‘unfair and unjust’’.
