A teenager named Akima da Sónia Horácio Huo, 19 years old, was found dead in a ditch and showing signs of sexual rape and physical aggression, on the Maputo ring road, very close to Vila Pitanga, in Marracuene, in the province of Maputo. The corpse had several injuries, including one of the arms broken, which leads to the assumption that the victim tried to fight with the attackers, who sexually assaulted her and then murdered her to avoid being reported. There were several condoms scattered around the place where the body was abandoned. Some residents who live close to the place where the body was found told “Carta” that, around 3am this Sunday morning (May 5th), they heard the teenager’s voice running while screaming for help (calling for her mother). , but when they came out they couldn’t understand where the voice was coming from because the girl had already disappeared. “At the time we went out to find out where the voice asking for help was coming from, we couldn’t see any tracks, probably because the bandits had pulled the girl into a forest nearby and gagged her so she wouldn’t continue screaming. She was found with a cloth in her mouth,” explained one of the residents. At the scene of the incident, the floor was completely “mistreated”, which suggests that she tried to resist, but ended up being overpowered, raped and killed. Subsequently, the corpse was left face down. However, early in the morning, the teenager’s mother, who did not know that her daughter had not slept at home, upon realizing her disappearance, asked a neighbor and began searching the neighborhood. Within a few hours, they learned that a girl had been found dead and the mother did not want to accept that it was her daughter. In tears and screaming, Sónia Horácio Huo, mother of the deceased, preferred to believe that her daughter was going to come back and give her a hug. But at around 12pm, after the teenager’s father went to Marracuene Hospital, confirmation came that it was Akima. The teenager lost her life after her mother repeated several times that she should not go out alone at night, because one day the worst could happen. Her mother’s prophecy came true. Akima was 19 years old, the first daughter of Sónia Huo and Carlos Alfredo Manjate, born in the province of Inhambane, where she lived with her maternal grandparents. In 2022 she came to live in Maputo with her parents and attended grade 11 at Escola Secundária Gwaza Muthini. At this moment, the victim’s body is in the morgue of the Maputo Central Hospital, for an autopsy to be carried out to determine the causes of death. (M.A.) Source: Carta de Moçambique
