Zimbabwe aviation authorities impounded a US-registered cargo jet, a senior official said on Monday, with a dead body and millions of South African rand reportedly on board.
Civil Aviation Authority of Zimbabwe general manager David Chawota confirmed a plane registered with Western Global Airlines was impounded at Harare International Airport on Sunday. A website says Western Global Airlines is based in Estero, Florida.
“The case is now in the hands of the state. It involves nationals and property of other countries so I am no longer qualified to give much detail but yes we impounded the plane on Sunday,” Chawota told Associated Press.
