Liberia to prosecute man diagnosed of Ebola in US for lying

The Liberian authorities say they will prosecute the man diagnose with Ebola in the US, accusing him of lying over his contact with an infected relative.

When he left the country last month, Liberian national Thomas Eric Duncan filled in a questionnaire saying that none of his relatives were sick.

But Liberia's assistant Health Minister said he had taken a sick relative to a clinic in a wheelbarrow.

Mr Duncan is in a serious condition in a Dallas hospital.

His is the first case of Ebola to be diagnosed on US soil.

More than three thousand 330 people have died in the Ebola outbreak in four West African countries.
