THE death toll from a crackdown by troops on protesters following Zimbabwe’s disputed election has doubled to six, police said on Thursday.

“The number of deaths, and it is really regrettable and unfortunate, has risen to six as three of the victims succumbed to death while seeking medical attention,” police spokeswoman, Charity Charamba, told a press conference. (AFP)
