Zimbabwe opposition challenge recount

By Channel 4 News

Updated on 13 April 2008

Zimbabwe's opposition says it will challenge plans for a partial recount in the country's parliamentary elections.

The MDC said it would go to court on Tuesday, after officials said 23 constituencies would be recounted next weekend.

Final results of the poll, which the MDC say they won, still haven't been released. Now the opposition has accused President Mugabe of staging a de facto coup to remain in power.
