Vote counting is still in progress in Burundi after a controversial presidential election.

Incumbent President Pierre Nkurunziza is widely expected to win a third consecutive term. 

However; officials have said they do not expect the final result to be announced until tomorrow.

Shortly before voting started on yesterday, a policeman and a civilian were killed in a string of explosions and gunfire in the capital Bujumbura.

Violence has been raging in Burundi since President NKURUNZIZA announced his intention to seek reelection three months ago.
