An initial investigation into the killing of a senior opposition official in Tanzania has found that he was beaten and doused with acid, according to his party.
The body of Ali Mohamed Kibao, a member of the secretariat of the main opposition Chadema party, was found on Saturday, a day after two armed men forced him off a bus heading from Dar-es-Salaam to the northeastern port city of Tanga, party chairman Freeman Mbowe said on Sunday.
