British photographer says Mugabe's wife attacked him

A British photographer said today that the wife of Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe punched him repeatedly in the face after he tried to take pictures of her near a luxury hotel in Hong Kong earlier this week.

Richard Jones said that Grace Mugabe, 43, ordered a bodyguard to hold him down and then attacked him herself on Thursday near the Shangri-La hotel on Hong Kong’s Kowloon peninsula.
