A South African court sentenced a Mozambican citizen to 23 years in prison for the practice of poaching in that territory of Southern Africa. It is 50-year-old Alsony Alberto Valoyi, detained in May 2016 inside the Kruger National Park in possession of six rhino horns. According to a press release, to which “Letter” had access, Valoyi was convicted by the Regional Court of Skukuza, Mpumalanga Province. In addition to the possession of rhino horns, the Mozambican was convicted of the crimes of trespassing, illegal immigration, illegal possession of a firearm with intent to commit a crime, and possession of unlicensed ammunition. When he was arrested, Alsony Alberto Valoyi was accompanied by a South African citizen, named Siyabonga Freedom Ndlovu, who will be tried next September at the request of the South African Public Ministry. The press release does not state the reasons for taking this decision. (Omardine Omar) Source: Carta de Moçambique
