Pretoria - The wife of one of the men being held in Equatorial Guinea believes her husband's faith will carry him through and that God will watch over him.

Belinda du Toit, wife of Nick du Toit, the alleged leader of the so-called South African mercenaries who were arrested in the tiny West African country 12 days ago, told Beeld in an exclusive interview she often wondered if her husband would ever return home again.

"But then again, he always said nothing comes across one's path without a reason. His faith will carry him through, and the Lord will watch over him even if nobody else believes in him right now."

There, according to a South African intelligence agent, the men – many former members of South Africa’s defunct mercenary company Executive Outcomes (EO) – were to rendezvous at the camp with other former EO operatives and rebel fighters who had been training for six months to overthrow the President of Equatorial Guinea, Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo.
Sometime this week, if all had gone to plan, the soldiers of fortune hoped to have ousted the president, installed Spanish-based opposition leader Severo Moto Nsa, and walked off with their booty.
But, as befitting the double dealing of the plots in Frederick Forsyth’s and Daniel Carney’s thrillers, things did not quite work out as intended.

Mokhine said Amnesty International officials in London were meeting to decide on urgent action, which included making representations to the United Nations and European Union.
"Because of reports of torture, harsh detention facilities and human rights violations in Equatorial Guinea, we fear for the lives of the suspected mercenaries."
He added that Amnesty International was "pleasantly surprised" at how the 70 suspected coup plotters had been treated in Zimbabwe and that there had been no reports of torture.

A lawyer representing the group has met his clients and said they have not complained about their treatment.
"They have not been ill-treated, they are happy and were even saying they are being given too much food in jail," Jonathan Samkange was quoted by AFP news agency as saying.

Just wait.
They have already called the the target of the coup "a gonad-eating cannibal."
Next they will claim that the mercenaries are recieving good care and good food only so that they can wind up in a pot.
