HARARE, Zimbabwe (AP) - Police banned political rallies on Friday as the crisis deepened over Zimbabwe's unresolved presidential election, with a senior police official warning that anyone who defies the order "will be dealt with severely."
The opposition said it was considering whether to defy the ban and call a general strike.
"We cannot accept a declaration of a police state," said Nelson Chamisa, spokesman for the opposition Movement for Democratic Change. "People have just voted for change, for democracy and what do they get? This is unacceptable. This is ridiculous."
