Mozambican Finance Minister to Stay In Jail in South Africa

Former Mozambican finance minister Manuel Chang has had his bail application postponed to January 18 by the Kempton Park Magistrate's Court. The postponement was granted to give his defence time to study an indictment detailing charges related to crimes that the U.S. alleges he committed and to review the validity of Chang's warrant of arrest pending an application for extradition.
