Robert
Mugabe's finance minister has been admitted to a hospital after beatings he
received in military custody, his lawyer has told Reuters news agency.
Ignatius
Chombo was detained when the military took over Zimbabwe last week in events
that eventually led to Mugabe resigning as president.
His lawyer
Lovemore Madhuku, says he has injuries to his hands, legs and back and was
blindfolded throughout his week in custody. The politician had been accused of
corruption and abuse of power relating to his time as local government minister
more than a decade ago, he said.
