A member of Renamo was fatally shot, this Thursday (12), by agents of the Police of the Republic of Mozambique, in one of the arteries of the municipality of Chiúre in the province of Cabo Delgado. Sources told “Carta” that the victim, in the company of other members and supporters, was demonstrating peacefully and was hit by a bullet when police officers began shooting at the caravan, which was supposedly celebrating Renamo’s victory. At the time, two other people were also injured and were receiving treatment at the Chiúre district hospital. However, the Police of the Republic of Mozambique, in Cabo Delgado, through Spokesperson, Mário Adolfo, confirmed that a minor under 16 years of age was killed in Chiúre and a minor under 12 years of age was injured. Mário Adolfo denied that the victims were members of political parties and clarified that it was not the corporation’s intention to kill the victim when she was forced to throw tear gas and fire in the air in order to prevent the demonstration. In the province of Nampula, PRM spokesman Zacarias Nacute said that the corporation’s agents may have hit children when they were controlling an illegal demonstration by Renamo members. According to the PRM in Nampula, which deplores the use of minors in political activities, the number of people detained for electoral offenses rose from three to seven between Wednesday and Thursday.
