Zimbabwean security agents have arrested Roy Bennett, a senior leader of the opposition MDC ahead of a swearing-in ceremony of a new unity cabinet, a party official said on Friday.

“Roy Bennett was arrested a few minutes ago at Charles Prince Airport. I am not sure whether he was arriving or leaving,” Ian Makone, a senior MDC official told Reuters. Bennett was nominated as deputy minister of agriculture by new Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai.
