Sierra Leone denies mine accident reports
Officials in Sierra Leone have denied reports of an accident at a gold mine.
Unconfirmed local reports suggested up to 200 people were missing - or had been killed - at the mine near the southern town of Bo.
Minister of Mineral Resources Alpha Kanu visited the site and denied an accident had occurred.
People at the mine were surprised to see him because nothing was wrong, Mr Kanu told the BBC. He dismissed the reports as "wicked rumours".
