    Rumours are going round Swaziland that King Mswati III of Swaziland - Africa's last absolute monarch with the 15 wives and the highest AIDS rate in the world) has had his VVIP MD-87 impounded in Canada for a multi-million dollar debt over a mining deal gone wrong.

    I know it was originally fitted out at Goderich in Ontario and they have the facilities to do maintenance. Does anyone have any info? The plane actually features on Goderich's website maintenance section but that is a photo from 2012.
