African leaders to discuss Zimbabwe's deepening crisis without Mugabe
None
African leaders hoped to find a resolution to Zimbabwe's deepening political crisis Saturday at an emergency summit in Zambia, but Zimbabwean officials told state media that President Robert Mugabe will not attend the "unnecessary" meeting.
Two weeks since a presidential election that produced no official winner, Zimbabwean police have banned political rallies and the opposition has accused the authorities of waging a violent crackdown. (AP)
