The President of the Republic, Filipe Nyusi, pardoned 897 inmates imprisoned in penitentiary establishments in Mozambique. Nyusi announced the fact during the presentation of the Report on the General Situation of the State of the Nation, an act that took place in the Assembly of the Republic. Without mentioning what type of inmates benefit from the measure, Nyusi said that the pardon aims to allow beneficiaries to return to their families and spend the Christmas and end-of-year festivities. ″Once again we urge communities to welcome them with open hearts,″ he said. The Head of State appealed to those pardoned to practice good behavior, to become increasingly worthy of the forgiveness of Mozambicans. In the same period last year, in the same place, also during the presentation of the Report on the General State of the Nation, the President of the Republic pardoned more than 800 first-time offenders, without convictions for heinous crimes, nor prison sentences of more than eight years.
