Mugabe arrives in South Africa amid family crisis

Zimbabwe's President Robert Mugabe has arrived in South Africa amid an attempt by his wife, Grace Mugabe, to gain diplomatic immunity in an assault case filed against her by a model who accuses the first lady of hitting her with an extension cord at an upmarket hotel in Johannesburg on Sunday evening.

Mr Mugabe is in South Africa to attend a Southern African Development Community summit of regional leaders, due to start on Saturday, Zimbabwe's state-owned Herald newspaper reported.
 
It did not mention the assault case against his wife.

South Africa's privately owned Eyewitness News reported that Mr Mugabe, 93, had been scheduled to only arrive - along with other regional leaders - on Friday but he came early to diffuse the situation around the first lady, aged 52.
