Armed men, allegedly from the Military Junta Renamo splinter group, ‘carried out an attack’ in the district of Moatize, Tete province, Sala da Paz reports. They fired shots at the official residence of the Samoa locality chief. The Samora locality chief was not in his residence when the attack happened and says that the perpetrators left “a letter” behind.

This comes after a similar incident in Capirizange on April 10, Miramar reports in the video below..

No police officers were in the police station at the time of the attack in Samoa, and the Samoa ‘Chefe da Localidade’ was also not in residence. The same was reported to have happened in Capirizange, Miramar reports..

An interviewee says that people went to sleep in the bush, just like during the 26-year war.

Meanwhile, the locality chief told Miramar TV that the significant difference in the Samôa attack is that “they left a letter” boasting of a Military Junta presence in Tete and saying “we don”t want Ossufo” and “we want Mariano Nhonngo,” he says.

The police have not yet presented the alleged detainees in the Capirizange case.

According to this Miramar report, in 2015, the ‘Chefe de Localidade’ was murdered in this same house.
