Reporter Held over Grace Mugabe Pants Story

Zimbabwean police have detained a journalist over a story alleging that a ruling Zanu-PF MP had donated second-hand underwear for supporters on behalf of First Lady Grace Mugabe.
The story was published in NewsDay, a privately-owned paper.
Zimbabwe Lawyers for Human Rights says in a statement that Police in the eastern city of Mutare went for Kenneth Nyangani on Monday evening.
The Mutare-based journalist is likely to face “criminal defamation” charges after being detained for “allegedly writing and publishing a story over the donation of some used undergarments” by President Robert Mugabe’s wife.
According to the newspaper, the clothes were distributed by local MP Esau Mupfumi, who said they had been donated by Mrs Mugabe.
