Zimbabwe to charge 'mercenaries'

Zimbabwe is to charge more than 60 men said to be mercenaries with plotting to "destabilise a sovereign government," Home Minister Kembo Mohadi has said.
The men were detained after their plane was impounded in Harare on Sunday.

Zimbabwe has accused the group of planning a coup in oil-rich Equatorial Guinea. A government minister has said the men could face the death penalty.

In Equatorial Guinea, a man said to be related to the group has publicly confessed to a coup plot on television.

On Thursday, Equatorial Guinea Deputy Foreign Minister Jose Esono Micha asked South Africa for help in the trial of another 15 suspected mercenaries.
