The Mozambican police
announced
on Tuesday afternoon the opening of a
criminal case against Afonso
Dhlakama and all members of

Command of Police. Dina said
the process is justified by the
need to meet the authorities
responsible for the shooting
which killed the driver of the small truck that made the
Inchope-Chimoio route. "A
lawsuit was filed to clarify the
actual circumstances of the
incident" - Dina said,
explaining that at an early stage the process is against
Dhlakama and all members of
his Renamo party who were involved in
the shooting. These must be
heard by the police to ascertain
who really the shooter who killed the driver of the ''pick up truck". Then will open a
s pecific case against the
shooter, who should be
charged with voluntary manslaughter and the other will be charged with the
process that has to do with
creating unrest and public
disorder. "The leader of
Renamo is also part of that
the process. We are waiting for complete data to
know where is Dhlakama. If
you have some fear of the
populace,hand yourself ovee to the police because they are the one who can protect you
"- continued Dina. Asked to what entity the case had been
referred, Dina pure and simply
did not answer, but simply
reiterated that there is already
a process that runs in the

Teaching quality is lacking in public schools
will only attend classes because they
have feeding programs in school. This
is the scenario outlined by the Professor Hildizina Dias of most
schools visited as part of research on education that has been developing for
years. The academic and lecturer at the
Pedagogical University (UP spoke
yesterday at a conference on the
challenges of the process of teaching
and learning quality, which ends today in the delegation of the UP Quelimane.
With a vast work published on
education, Hildizina Dias even said it's
not just what is happening in primary
schools in the public sector. And he
asks: "Why is it that poor children have to be in schools without toilets? Many
schools I've seen in Niassa, Cabo
Delgado and Inhambane have
no bathrooms. And why is it that the
private schools have it all? Why is it
that the universities are concerned about investing in aluminum railing
and do not take this money to build
bathrooms in primary schools? "
