Mugabe may have escaped to Malaysia, some news reports, including those from the BBC say.
A senior Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) official Tendai Biti says party leader Morgan Tsvangirai has won 60% of the vote, against 30% for Robert Mugabe.

Mr Matonga also denied rumours that Robert Mugabe had escaped to Malaysia or was planning to impose a state of emergency.
