nigel99 666 #1 March 9, 2009 The leader of the opposition in Zimbabwe was involved in a car "accident" on Friday and his wife was killed. He was appointed Prime Minister 2 days before as part of the power sharing deal. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/africa/7929136.stm Speculation is rife as to whether this was an attempt on his life as it is quite common for people Mugabe doesn't like to have "accidents" with either HGV's or trains. Something worth noting on BBC video is that he lays in bed the entire time the President and cohorts are wishing him well and sits up the instant his friends arrive.Experienced jumper - someone who has made mistakes more often than I have and lived.

Gawain 0 #2 March 9, 2009 I just read in the WSJ online that he has now left the country and that investigators to the accident have been arrested. So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright 'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life Make light!

shropshire 0 #3 March 9, 2009 Latest from the Beeb... QuoteZimbabwean Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai has said the car crash that killed his wife was an accident. Mr Tsvangirai said there was only a "one in a thousand" chance that the incident involved any foul play. He was speaking as the lorry driver involved in the collision was expected to plead not guilty to culpable homicide at a court appearance. (.)Y(.)
