Ethiopian leader arrested for meeting Brussels bosses
AN ETHIOPIAN opposition leader is being held on terror charges after holding talks with European Union bosses.
Merera Gudina, who leads the Oromo People's Congress, was detained after returning to Addis Ababa from Brussels where he criticised the government in Addis Ababa for imposing a state of emergency.
Mr Gudina has been at the forefront of protests against land grabs in the Oromiya region and what his supporters have described as a government clampdown on political freedoms.
