Former British soldier Simon Mann is waiting to hear the verdict in his trial in Equatorial Guinea for a 2004 coup plot, which ended on Friday.

Mr Mann, who potentially faces 30 years in prison, has admitted guilt but has tried to convince the court that he was not the most senior coup plotter.

The former SAS officer was held four years ago with 64 others in Zimbabwe. He served four years in prison there for trying to purchase weapons without a licence before being extradited.

The trial was held at a conference centre in the capital, Malabo, amid heavy security.
It was not immediately clear when the verdict would be issued.
