South Africa’s opposition leader has been expelled from Zambia, blocking him from attending the treason case of his detained counterpart, his party says.
Police boarded Mmusi Maimane’s flight, and “forcefully prevented” him from entering Zambia, his party said.
Mr Maimane had planned to show solidarity with Zambia’s main opposition leader Hakainde Hichilema when he appears in court on Friday.
A court is due to rule whether he should be tried for treason.·
Zambia’s government has not yet commented on the statement by South Africa’s main opposition Democratic Alliance (DA) that its leader was deported.
Mr Maimane is due to give a statement about the issue at 09.30 GMT.
Last night, he tweeted pictures from the airport in Lusaka saying that he was assaulted.
