    CHARLESTON, S.C., June 22 (Reuters) - South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley is expected to call on Monday for the Confederate battle flag to be taken down from the state capitol grounds, five days after a white gunman allegedly shot dead nine black worshipers at a historic Charleston church.

    The move comes on a day when religious and elected leaders called on state lawmakers to remove the rallying symbol of the pro-slavery South during the U.S. Civil War.
