The Mozambican police on Monday announced that they have knocked out of action two gangs of car thieves who were operating in Maputo and the neighbouring city of Matola.
Maputo city police spokesperson Orlando Mudumane said that some of the thefts were carried out at gunpoint, but for others the thieves used copies of the vehicles’ keys. One of the groups was detained in the neighbourhood of Laulane, shortly after stealing a vehicle in central Maputo.
Mudumane declined to give the names of those arrested, for fear of disturbing the course of the investigations. He believed that other members of the gangs were still at large. “Investigations are under way to ascertain whether these groups were involved in any other crimes”, he said.
