The Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) military said it successfully thwarted an attempted coup which unfolded on Sunday morning.
DRC army spokesperson Brigadier General Sylvain Ekenge said the attempted coup involved foreigners and Congolese. He said:
<blockquote>
An attempted coup d’etat has been put down by the defence and security forces. The attempt involved foreigners and Congolese. These foreigners and Congolese have been put out of action, including their leader…
The armed forces of the DRC ask the population to go about their business freely and peacefully. The defence and security forces are in complete control of the situation.
</blockquote>
According to <a href="https://www.reuters.com/world/africa/democratic-republic-congo-army-says-it-stopped-attempted-coup-2024-05-19/">Reuters</a>, the leader of the attempted coup was killed and some 50 people including three American citizens arrested.
Gunfire rang out around 4 AM in the capital Kinshasa, a Reuters reporter said. Ekenge was also reported as saying armed men attacked the presidency in the city centre.
Another attack took place at the nearby home of Vital Kamerhe, a member of parliament who is tipped to become speaker, Michel Moto Muhima, his spokesperson said on the X.
Muhima said two police officers and one of the attackers were killed in the shootout that started around 4:30 AM at the house on Tshatshi Boulevard.
Ekenge named Christian Malanga, a US-based Congolese politician, as the leader of the attempted coup. He told Reuters:
<blockquote>
Malanga was definitively neutralised during the attack on the Palais de la Nation, a certain Aboubacar was neutralised during the attack on the residence of Vital Kamarhe the others – around 50 including three American citizens – were arrested and are currently undergoing interrogation by the specialised services of the Armed Forces.
</blockquote>
He said Malanga first attempted and aborted a coup in 2017 and that one of the American citizens arrested was Malanga’s son.
United States of America Ambassador Lucy Tamlyn said in a post on social media that she was “very concerned” by reports that American citizens had allegedly been involved in the events. She said:
<blockquote>
Please be assured that we will cooperate with the DRC authorities to the fullest extent as they investigate these criminal acts and hold accountable any U.S. citizen involved in criminal acts.
</blockquote>
Posting on X, the United Nations stabilisation mission in the DRC said that its chief, Bintou Keita, condemned the incidents in the strongest terms and offered her support to the Congolese authorities.
Tshisekedi was re-elected for a second term as president in December, but has yet to name a government, six weeks after appointing a prime minister.
Kamerhe was a candidate for speaker of parliament in an election that had been scheduled for Saturday but was delayed by Tshisekedi.

DRC Army Says It Stopped Attempted Coup Involving Americans

Soldiers in Niger claimed to have removed President Mohamed Bazoum from power on Wednesday, following his detention at his official residence by the presidential guard.
The soldiers released a statement, announcing the establishment of the National Council for the Safeguarding of the Country and the suspension of all institutions in the country. Colonel Major Amadou Abdramane announced the closure of Niger’s borders, a nationwide curfew, and the suspension of all institutions. He was flanked by nine officers as he read the statement for the National Council for the Safeguarding of the Country, which warned against any foreign intervention.
The announcement came after a day of uncertainty and concerns over the security situation in Niger.
It was unclear where the president was at the time of Abdramane’s announcement or if he had resigned.
U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken told reporters in New Zealand that they support President Mohamed Bazoum. He said:
<blockquote>
I spoke with President Bazoum earlier this morning and made clear that the United States resolutely supports him as the democratically elected president of Niger.
We call for his immediate release.
</blockquote>
The military takeover marks the seventh coup in the West and Central Africa region since 2020, which could further complicate Western efforts to help countries in the Sahel region fight against armed groups linked to al-Qaeda and ISIS (ISIL).
UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres denounced the apparent coup and condemned any effort to seize power by force and undermine democratic governance, peace, and stability in Niger. He called on all actors involved to exercise restraint and protect constitutional order.
French President Emmanuel Macron too “strongly condemned all attempts to take power by force” in Niger.
Earlier on Wednesday, the African Union and ECOWAS described the moves against Bazoum as an attempt to unseat the democratically elected president. Nigerian President Bola Tinubu, the ECOWAS commission’s chairman, stated that the regional bloc’s leadership would resist any attempt to topple Niger’s government. He emphasized that lovers of democracy will not tolerate any incapacitation of a democratically elected government. The president of neighbouring Benin, Patrice Talon, flew into Niger to assess the situation and stated that all means will be used, if necessary, to restore constitutional order in Niger and that the ideal situation would be for everything to be done in peace and harmony.
According to Al Jazeera’s Mike Hanna, the situation in Niger is of great concern to the US and its allies, as Niger is the last US ally left in the region. Governments in neighbouring Mali and Burkina Faso have been toppled in military coups, and both countries have expelled French soldiers and turned to Russian-backed forces for protection. The US has two drone bases in Niger and about 800 troops involved in training the Nigerian military. The developments in Niger could be the next step in the region and the US has been watching with great concern.
Niger is a pivotal ally for Western powers seeking to help fight the armed groups and is also a key partner of the European Union in the fight against irregular migration from sub-Saharan Africa.

Coup: Niger Soldiers Oust President Bazoum After His Detention By Presidential Guard

Twenty-five people comprising far-right and ex-military figures have been arrested in raids across Germany on suspicion of plotting to overthrow the government.
They reportedly planned to replace it with a new state modelled on the Germany of 1871 – an empire called the Second Reich.
The suspects are said to have prepared for a “Day X” to storm the Reichstag (Parliament) building and seize power.
A minor aristocrat named Prince Heinrich XIII, aged 71 is one of two alleged ringleaders among those arrested across 11 German states.
The plotters are said to include members of the extremist Reichsbürger [Citizens of the Reich] movement, which refuses to recognise the modern German state.
Other suspects came from the QAnon movement who believe that Germany is in the hands of the “deep state” involving secret powers pulling the political strings.
Three thousand officers took part in 150 operations in 11 of Germany’s 16 states, with two people arrested in Austria and Italy.
The raids, conducted at dawn on Wednesday, 6 December, have been described as one of the biggest anti-extremism operations in modern German history.
Interior Minister Nancy Faeser assured Germans that authorities would respond with the full force of the law “against the enemies of democracy”.
Justice Minister Marco Buschmann tweeted that a suspected “armed attack on constitutional bodies was planned”. | <a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-63885028">BBC News</a>

Germany Arrests 25 Accused Of Plotting Coup

Alpha Media Holdings chairman Trevor Ncube has publicly admitted that he was naive and wrong to join the “give him a chance brigade” when President Emmerson Mnangagwa became the country’s leader on the back of the November 2017 military coup.
Ncube said he resigned from the Presidential Advisory Council (PAC) after realising that the coup project won’t end well. He said:
<blockquote>
I was one of those people who stood up and said give Emmerson Mnangagwa a chance and how wrong I was! But why did I say that?
I said that because this man has sat in the same room with Robert Mugabe, he has seen what Robert Mugabe did in the country.
Maybe, he is really interested in turning things around… This man played a role as far as Gukurahundi is concerned, the massacre of over 20 000 people in Matabeleland.
Maybe, it’s time for him to make amends for that. So I was generous in my spirit as a God-fearing man that this man was about to do a turnaround. Again was I disappointed!
I was actually approached and I agreed to serve in the presidential advisory council, so I sat at close range with the President advising him on a number of issues but I have since retired, stepped down because I can see this thing is not going to end well.
The lesson that we have gotten, all of us, is that anyone who embarks on a coup does not usually do so because they want to promote democracy, widen economic prosperity and so forth.
The people that launched the coup in Zimbabwe were interested in protecting their small personal interests, ethnic interests, business interests and economic interests.

Trevor Ncube Quits Presidential Advisory Council, Says Coup Project Won't End Well

ZANU PF youth member, Sybeth Musengezi, says he will not withdraw his High Court application seeking the nullification of President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s ascendency to the helm of the ruling party.
Musengezi alleges Mnangagwa illegally took power in 2017 from then-president Robert Mugabe following a military coup.
He approached the High Court in Bulawayo last month and filed an application asking the court to invalidate Mnangagwa’s alleged power grab.
Mnangagwa’s lawyers wrote to Musengezi last month demanding he withdraw the case, but he is having none of it.
In his application before the High Court, Musengezi said that the ZANU PF Central Committee appointed Mnangagwa as the party president and first secretary on 19 November 2017 in violation of the constitution.
He wants the decision by the Central Committee declared null and void. Musengezi said:
<blockquote>
I realised that he is an illegal leader, he ascended to power in an illegal manner through the 19 November 2019 meeting which was held against the party constitution.
According to the party constitution the meeting that they purported to have held on19 November 2017 was not convened properly the person who superintended that meeting did not have the mandate as per the party constitution, only President Mugabe at that time could preside over that meeting in his absence.
Cde Mphoko Phelekezela who was the Vice President is the one who was supposed to take over in the event that President Mugabe is not available because Emmerson Mnangagwa had been expelled.
</blockquote>
Mnangagwa was voted the president of Zimbabwe in 2018, less than a year after taking over from late president Robert Mugabe, who had ruled the country for37 years.

ZANU PF Youth Challenging ED’s Presidency Refuses To Back Down

Mali’s interim president Bah Ndaw and prime minister Moctar Ouane resigned on Wednesday, a top junta aide has said.
The resignations came just two days after they were detained and stripped of their powers in what appeared to amount to the country’s second coup in nine months.
Ndaw and Ouane, who were tasked with steering the return to civilian rule after a coup last August, resigned in the presence of mediators visiting the military base where they were being held, said Baba Cisse, special advisor to junta boss Assimi Goita.
A member of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS), African Union and UN mission MINUSMA mediation mission told reporters that the leaders had in fact resigned before they arrived.
The delegation then went to speak to Goita – who holds the rank of vice president in the transitional government – again after seeing him late Tuesday.
Cisse said negotiations were underway for the pair’s release and the formation of a new government in the poor Sahel country.
The detention of the president and prime minister triggered widespread international condemnation and the threat of sanctions.
French President Emmanuel Macron, whose country has committed more than 5 000 troops to Mali’s fight against jihadism in the Sahel, condemned the arrest of Ndaw and Ouane as a “coup d’etat in an unacceptable coup d’etat”.
Ndaw and Ouane had been heading an interim government with the declared aim of restoring full civilian rule within 18 months.
But recently there had been signs of discontent among the public, with the opposition M5 movement demanding a “more legitimate” body.
On May 14, the government said it would appoint a new “broad-based” cabinet.
The reshuffle, designed to respond to growing criticism, saw the military keep the strategic portfolios it controlled during the previous administration.
But two other coup leaders – ex-defence minister Sadio Camara and ex-security minister Colonel Modibo Kone – were replaced, prompting officers to detain the president and prime minister.
Goita, who holds the rank of vice president in the transitional government, accused Ndaw and Ouane of failing to consult him on the reshuffle, describing this as a “demonstrable intent to sabotage the transition”. He said:
<blockquote>The scheduled elections will be held in 2022.</blockquote>

Mali’s President And PM Resign After Arrest By Military Junta

MDC Alliance vice-chairperson Job Sikhala said he is not afraid of the threats issued by the Defence and War Veterans Affairs Minister Oppah Muchinguri on Tuesday that the government net is closing in on “coup mongers”.
Sikhala, preacher Talent Chiwenga and some media organisations were recently accused by the government of spreading rumours of an imminent coup.
The firebrand Zengeza West MP said the “idiots governing our country should take responsibility for their failures” instead of trying to use other people as scapegoats. Sikhala said in a statement:
<blockquote>Let me set the record straight from the onset, to Oppah Muchinguri, please bring it on.
I am not afraid of the threats because this country can not be governed on the basis of lies and manufacturing of falsehoods against those who are standing against the evils of your government because this country does not belong to anyone’s mother.
I am briefed that the threat by Oppah Muchinguri is targeting at arresting me and (Apostle Talent) Chiwenga as soon as possible.
The brief I received which is quite detailed, says, sooner rather than later after our arrest, journalist (Hopewell) Chin’ono will also be immediately nabbed.
I will not tolerate any persecution on my person anymore. Don’t dare again. Like their threat to come and invade my home on the 29th of February 2020 that turned into a nightmare, I have mobilised the entire population to trigger a revolution in the event of carrying out their threat. I am a practical man.</blockquote>

Bring It On! Sikhala Says His Arrest Will Trigger Revolution

Exiled former ZANU PF political commissar Saviour “Tyson” Kasukuwere has denied claims by the Government of Zimbabwe that he is behind “rumours” of an imminent military coup.
In his statement issued on June 15th, Kasukuwere said as a victim of the November 2017 coup himself, he would never attempt or conspire to carry out a coup of any sort.
Below is Kasukuwere’s statement in full:
<blockquote>FROM THE DESK OF SAVIOUR KASUKUWERE
15 June 2020
STATEMENT ON COUP PLOT RUMOUR
I make this statement in response to the allegations contained in a press statement released by the Government of Zimbabwe, as read by Minister of Home Affairs, R. Kazembe Kazembe on Wednesday 10 June 2020.
The allegations are that myself, along with other individuals are peddling rumours on an alleged coup plot.
This is laughable and I deny this unfounded allegation levelled against me and dismiss it with the contempt it deserves.
I am a firm believer in constitutionalism and would never attempt or conspire to carry out a coup of any sort.
I myself, am a victim of the November 2017 coup and retain the scars of this horrific event.
Our nation has greater challenges that behove us all to rise beyond narrow interests and place the collective security and survival of our people at the centre of governance.
Threats and efforts to eliminate those viewed as adversaries to the powers that be are unfortunate and should have no place in a democratic Zimbabwe.
The nation faces a plethora of difficulties that require a united front in order to secure the collective interests of the people of Zimbabwe.
The challenges are not insurmountable and I am a Zimbabwean who desires to see the best for our nation and her people.
Thank you,
Saviour Kasukuwere</blockquote>

'Tyson' Responds To Allegations Of Coup Rumor-mongering

The president while addressing a Zanu PF politburo meeting yesterday blamed the economic turmoil and the collapse of the local currency on foreign governments and business he said were destabilizing the economy to force him out of power, Newsday reports.
The president is his speech vowed his political detractors would not win since they did not liberate the country to benefit selfish profiteers and greedy individuals:
<blockquote>On the economic front, we are witnessing a relentless attack on our currency and the economy in general through exorbitant pricing models. We are fully cognisant that this is a battle being fuelled by our political detractors, elite opportunists and malcontents who are bent on pushing a nefarious agenda
They will never win. We did not liberate this country for selfish profiteers and greedy individuals, but for all the people in our land who have the right to enjoy a better quality of life. As a party, we must always strive to achieve this.
The confrontational actions which played out in the political, economic and media arena, were not isolated incidents, but well-orchestrated, co-ordinated and planned events. I am aware that the intention was to cause despondency, unrest, violence and to render the country ungovernable.
These acts should never be tolerated. I urge the party and nation as a whole to remain alert. Let’s refuse to be divided by vigilantes who were hired by hostile foreign governments to distract us from our quest to grow (the economy) and improve the quality of lives for all, in peace, unity and love</blockquote>
The politburo meeting took place a few short hours before Zimbabwe Security Services held a press conference to according to them <a href="https://news.pindula.co.zw/2020/06/10/zimbabwes-security-services-address-the-nation-on-reports-of-an-imminent-coup/">dismiss rumours circulating that another coup was imminent in Zimbabwe.</a>

WATCH: Kazembe Statement On Imminent Military Coup Rumours

The government of Zimbabwe has dismissed rumours of an imminent military coup d’etat in the country saying the reports were fabricated by a “united front” of groups who want to make the country ungovernable.
Addressing the media on Wednesday evening in the capital Harare, Minister of Home Affairs Kazembe Kazembe, who was flanked by members of the Joint Operations Command (JOC), blamed the reports on an alleged coalition of some opposition parties, elements within the security services and exiled former government ministers. Said Kazembe:
<blockquote>The Government of the Republic of Zimbabwe has noted, with grave concern, a recent upsurge in rumours suggesting an imminent military coup d’etat in the country.
Government would, therefore, like, through the agency of the Working Committee of the National Security Council (WCNSC) as convened here in terms of Section 209 of the Constitution of Zimbabwe Amendment (No.20) Act 2013, to unequivocally debunk and dismiss these rumours with the contempt they deserve.
The purveyors of this false coup narrative claim that former members of the Zimbabwe African National Union-Patriotic Front (ZANU PF) who fell by the wayside and largely went into self-imposed exile at the advent of the New Dispensation in November 2017, are coming together in a united front with some named senior Government leaders, some members of the Security Forces of Zimbabwe and elements of the opposition formations.
This is in a bid to taint the image of His Excellency the President, to undermine the legitimacy of Government and to render the country ungovernable.</blockquote>
In his six-page statement, Kazembe also lashed out at foreign diplomats who he accused of engaging in anti Government activism which renders it difficult to differentiate them from card-carrying members of the opposition.
He also castigated Harare First Street preachers, Talent Chiwenga of Christ Revelation Ministries and Simon Shiloh of the Deeds of Christ Ministries accusing them of involvement in subversive activities.
Kazembe added that the next harmonised election is the only available opportunity for a democratic and constitutional change in Zimbabwe.

Zimbabwe's Security Services Address The Nation On Reports Of An Imminent Coup

High Court judge Justice <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Garainesu_Mawadze" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Garainesu Mawadze</a> said there are provisions in the Constitution of Zimbabwe for the President to be removed from office before his or her term expires.
Justice Mawadze made the remarks while dismissing the treason allegations levelled against MDC vice-chairperson and Zengeza West legislator, <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Job_Sikhala" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Job Sikhala</a>, in Masvingo on Friday. He said:
<blockquote>The Constitution provides for the removal of an elected President before his term expires, even against his wishes. It also provides for the legal overthrow of a government. From the accused’s statements, there is no reference to the use of unconstitutional means.
Accused is well suited to initiate constitutional processes as a legislator. I am not persuaded by the State’s submissions in that the accused’s statements relate to breaching section 22 of the Constitution. I do not find the nexus between the two. There is nothing criminal in the utterances.</blockquote>
Sikhala was dragged before the High Court on a treason charge after he reportedly told a party rally in Bikita last year that “We will overthrow President Mnangagwa before 2023”.
Sikhala, through his lawyer, <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Beatrice_Mtetwa" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Beatrice Mtetwa</a> had applied for exception to the charge, arguing that the charges were vague, and Justice Mawadze concurred.
In dismissing the charge, Justice Mawadze said the State failed to prove a prima facie case that Sikhala wanted to stage a coup, the mere use of the words “war or fight” were not sufficient to convict him.

'President Can Be Overthrown Legally Before Term Expires'

The <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Government_of_Zimbabwe" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">government of Zimbabwe</a> has rubbished social media claims that President Emmerson Mnangagwa is refraining from taking his annual leave fearful that his rivals in government will stage a coup d’état against his administration as happened to his predecessor, the late Robert Mugabe.
Permanent secretary in the <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Ministry_of_Information,_Publicity_and_Broadcasting_Services" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Ministry of Information, Publicity and Broadcasting Services</a>, <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/Nick_Mangwana" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Ndavaningi Mangwana</a> on Friday said:
<blockquote>President Mnangagwa’s presidency is completely different from the previous dispensation. He will take his annual leave on the day of his choosing like everyone else.
Succession in Zimbabwe happens as a constitutional process and being on leave is not one of the conditions for succession.</blockquote>
Taking the matter to microblogging site Twitter, Mangwana condemned “hypocritical” complaints raised around Mnangagwa’s travels. <a href="https://twitter.com/nickmangwana/status/1210425400410746880" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">He wrote</a>:
<blockquote>When HE leaves the country, you complain that he travels too much, he doesn’t stay at home. He stays at home you complain that he is not leaving the country.
He is damned when he does and damned when he doesn’t. But being President, he always exercises his executive judgement.</blockquote>

Govt Scoffs At Mnangagwa 'Annual Vacation' Coup Fears

Larry Moyo has observed that media reports suggesting that there was a plot to remove president Emmerson Mnangagwa from office have been on repeat for a long period of time now. He compiled pictures of varying publications which reported on the story recently.
His remarks come when Mnangagwa this Thursday <a href="https://news.pindula.co.zw/2019/11/01/were-hunting-with-dogs-that-arent-ours-as-plot-to-oust-ed-thickens/">told the ZANU PF Youth League Assembly in Harare that he was aware of a plot by Generation 40 remnants</a> within the ruling party to dislodge him from power. Mnangagwa then urged the Youths to flush out every G40 member.

PICTURES: Coup To Remove ED Stories Should Rank Among Most Repeated Headlines - Larry Moyo

A political analyst says that President Emmerson Mnangagwa’s decision to retire four military generals and redeploy them to the diplomatic service was merely not a move calculated to coup-proof himself.
The move means that the military has taken over control of Zimbabwe’s diplomatic services and trade. Moreover, the military has become a pervasive presence in everyday life, with tentacles in business, police, the courts and even the country’s roads. The report reads in part:
<blockquote>When Mnangagwa retired the generals, many analysts were quick to conclude that Mnangagwa had coup-proofed himself, although rumours abound that the four generals are resisting their deployment.
However, that synthesis does not take into consideration the fact that diplomatic service is also an influential posting. In Zimbabwe, the military is a pervasive presence in everyday life, with tentacles in business, police, the courts and even the country’s roads.
The diplomatic service may well be the last frontier and the military is taking over that part of the government too.
… It’s clear the military has taken over Zimbabwe’s diplomatic services and trade. SB Moyo is now more powerful than any other Foreign Affairs minister Zimbabwe has had since independence.
On that score, the military now controls directly, not only the diplomatic thrust but engagement with countries seen as key to Zimbabwe’s reintegration into the world.
Mnangagwa, after all, may now be a mere face of the military establishment.</blockquote>

Mnangagwa Now A Mere Face Of Military Establishment - Analyst

Breaking: Robert Mugabe Finally Talks To Press. To Speak About November Military Takeover

President Emmerson Mnangagwa visited Tsvangirai last week to start negotiations with him to postpone elections for at least 3 years, former cabinet minister Jonathan Moyo has said.
Jonathan Moyo was speaking on the BBC Hard Talk programme from an unknown location yesterday.
According to Moyo, the president and vice president Chiwenga, <a href="https://news.pindula.co.zw/2018/01/05/video-president-emmerson-mnangagwa-visits-morgan-tsvangirai/">who visited the MDC-T leader last week</a>, pretended that they had visited him due to his illness.
Said Moyo:
<blockquote>“They kept saying they wanted elections within 6 months. We know that when Mnangagwa and Chiwenga went to Morgan Tsvangirai’s house, they pretended that they were concerned about his health and so forth. But we know they wanted to negotiate with him to postpone elections for at least 3 years.
They are afraid of elections. They don’t want to have free and fair elections, let alone credible elections.</blockquote>
In the interview, Moyo was insistent that the new Zimbabwe government is not legitimate since, he said, it came to power through a coup.

"Mnangagwa negotiating with Tsvangirai to postpone elections for 3 years" - Jonathan Moyo

Manicaland Provincial Affairs minister <a href="http://www.pindula.co.zw/Mandi_Chimene">Mandiitawepi Chimene</a> has accused War Veterans minister <a href="http://www.pindula.co.zw/Tshinga_Dube">Tshinga Dube </a>and military chiefs of plotting a coup d’état against President <a href="http://www.pindula.co.zw/Robert_Mugabe">Robert Mugabe</a> by holding a crucial meeting with former freedom fighters while the President is in Morocco where he is attending a climate change summit.
Speaking to the Daily News yesterday, Chimene said that Dube’s meeting with the war veterans was illegal and served as an effective coup against Mugabe whose party had expelled the leadership of the <a href="http://www.pindula.co.zw/Zimbabwe_National_Liberation_War_Veterans_Association">Zimbabwe National Liberation War Veterans Association</a> (ZNLWVA) from Zanu PF after they allegedly issued the communique in which they withdrew their support from Mugabe.
However, Dube dismissed Chimene’s allegations, maintaining that the meeting with the <a href="http://www.pindula.co.zw/Christopher_Mutsvangwa">Christopher Mutsvangwa</a>-led war vets’ executive was part of the brief that he had been given by Mugabe. He also said that Chimene is the one who is the rebel because she is trying to impose herself.

Mandi Chimene accuses War Veterans' Minister of plotting with army to remove Mugabe

Six Zimbabweans suspected of plotting to overthrow President <a href="http://www.pindula.co.zw/Robert_Mugabe">Robert Mugabe</a> are being held by the Hawks in Limpopo, South Africa after they were arrested a fortnight ago.
The five men and a woman, aged between 22 and 34, were apprehended at the Grobler’s Bridge border post in Witpoort near Lephalale on their way to Mozambique to receive military training to force regime change in neighbouring Zimbabwe. According to the Hawks, the suspects were arrested with the help of foreign military assistance.
However Mugabe’s spokesperson <a href="http://www.pindula.co.zw/George_Charamba">George Charamba</a> said they were yet to receive word of the arrests,
<blockquote>They (South Africa) may have communicated with our security cluster because they have their own way of handling such issues. There were claims that Renamo offered to train them, but we never took that seriously. But, in any case, they know what awaits them.</blockquote>
The six arrested in Limpopo were remanded in custody after appearing in the Lephalale Magistrate’s Court last week. They face charges related to terrorism and contravening the Immigration Act. A Hawks source close to the investigation said in an interview with The New Age said that the suspects were recruited to undergo military training in Mozambique in order to overthrow the Zimbabwean government.
