Tsvangirai’s condition was currently stable, the source said, adding that the sudden illness did not relate to Tsvangirai’s ongoing cancer treatment. Tsvangirai, who leads a broad coalition of opposition parties, is due to challenge his long-time political foe President Robert Mugabe at an election next year. Tsvangirai said last year that he was being treated for colon cancer. Two other Zimbabwean political sources confirmed the details of his illness and move to South Africa.
