Zimbabwe Impounds Plane 'With Body And Money'

Western Global Airlines aircraft which raised suspicions of CAAZ authorities

Zimbabwe has seized a US-registered cargo plane which had a dead body and large sums of South African currency on board, the state-owned Herald newspaper reports. 

Staff at the international airport in the capital, Harare, noticed blood dropping from the aircraft when it had stopped to refuel while flying from Germany to South Africa, it adds. 

South Africa's FIn24 news site quotes Zimbabwe's Civil Aviation Authority head, David Chawota, as saying the cargo on the plane belonged to South Africa's central bank.
“The police are now handling the issue and the plane, which is owned by Western Global Airlines, has been grounded at Harare International Airport since Sunday,” he added, Fin24 reports.
