Famous African billionaire crashed on a plane

Zimbabwe's most famous businessman, 43-year-old Viknel Chivayo, was killed in a private helicopter crash in the east of the country. This was reported by ZBC, citing relatives of the businessman.

In addition to Chivaio, five people were on board the helicopter. The incident occurred near the town of Marondera. The fate of the others on board has not been reported.

Earlier, the media in Zimbabwe appeared contradictory reports: they wrote about the crash of the plane, then the helicopter, and the number of those on board also varied.

Passengers neutralized the pilot and rescued the Boeing 737 from the crash.
