Zimbabwe 'Arrests Fleeing Politician'

Interviews, news and analysis of the day’s global events.

A lawyer for the Zimbabwean opposition politician, Tendai Biti, has told the BBC he's been arrested while trying to flee to Zambia. But there's been no official confirmation and state media called it fake news.

Also in the programme: Is Argentina, birthplace of the pope and historically among the most strongly Roman Catholic countries in the world, about to legalise abortion? And winter drought in south Australia and what it's doing to public opinion on climate change.
