Harare - The Zimbabwean government, which is holding 70 men suspected of plotting to topple the president of Equatorial Guinea, has altered its list of designated extradition countries to include the west African nation.
According to government papers made available on Wednesday, the state published an order last week saying the current list of countries to which Zimbabwe can extradite suspects "is amended by the insertion of the following item - Equatorial Guinea".
It said the order had been made by Zimbabwe's minister of home affairs "after consultation with the minister of foreign affairs".
The 70 men, all of whom were travelling on South African passports, were detained on March 7 at Harare International Airport when their Boeing 727 stopped to refuel and pick up military equipment.
