The Judicial Court of Cabo Delgado begins tomorrow, Wednesday, October 3, the trial of 189 citizens, who stand accused of “being part of the group of insurgents which, for a year, has carried out attacks on villages of districts of that northern province of the country,” O País reports.
According to information from official sources at the Provincial Prosecutor’s Office in Cabo Delgado, the trial will take place in an improvised room in the Mieze semi-open penitentiary in the Metuge district, of Cabo Delgado, “due to the high number of defendants indicted.”
Fifty defendants are Tanzanian citizens.
