UK Zanu-PF: Impeachment of Mugabe is 'going ahead'

MPs from Zimbabwe's ruling party, Zanu-PF, are meeting to discuss the impeachment of President Mugabe, after a deadline set for noon passed without him resigning.

A draft impeachment motion, drawn up by the party, describes Mr Mugabe as a "source of instability" and claims he has shown disrespect for the rule of law.

Zanu-PF's UK's representative Nick Mangwana told Radio 4's World at One that "the case has to be made, and evidence has to be gathered" but "impeachment is going ahead".
