Zimbabwe police detained opposition leader, Morgan Tsvangirai during a campaign for the country\'s presidential election.



Tsvangirai was reportedly detained when a convoy carrying the Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) leader was stopped at a police roadblock.



The MDC leader and his entourage were taken to a police station in the far west of the country.



The latest development comes as Zimbabwe prepares for a run-off election between Tsvangirai and President Robert Mugabe on June 27.
