Zanu-PF head Robert Mugabe acceded last week to a secret meeting with pro-democracy leader Morgan Tsvangirai, Zimbabwe state media reported on Monday.
Zimbabweans began voting on Saturday in the most crucial election since independence from Britain in 1980, with veteran President Robert Mugabe facing the biggest challenge of his 28-year-rule. Some voters slept at the polling stations while others began queuing before dawn. Voting began just after 7am and was scheduled to end 12 hours later.
