Zimbabwe editor-in-exile 'serious' after shooting

Abel Mutsakani, the editor of a Zimbabwe news website and former managing editor of the banned Daily News, is in a serious condition in a Johannesburg hospital after he being shot four days ago. He was attacked while parking his car. The bullet went through his raised elbow and ricocheted into his chest, rupturing his lung and lodging near his heart. The motive is unclear. He was not robbed. Mutsakani moved to South Africa after his paper, then Zimbabwe's best-selling daily, was banned in September 2003. (Via AllAfrica.com)
