252 killed in Mozambique presidential election disobedience violence

More than 250 people have been killed in protests and violence against the results of the presidential election in Mozambique in southern Africa.

The local human rights group "Plataforma Desid" reported that 125 people were killed for three days in protests and group escapees that resumed after the Constitutional Commission announced the results of the presidential election on the 23rd.

In addition, he said the damage was severe in large cities such as the capital Maputo, Beira and Nampula, and that the death toll from the violence has risen to 252 since the presidential election on October 9.

In addition, more than 4,000 citizens were arrested during the same period.

Thousands of inmates escaped from prison near Maputu on the 25th local time, and more than 30 of them were killed in clashes with prison guards.

In Mozambique, after the Constitutional Committee confirmed the victory of Daniel Shafu, a candidate from the ruling Mozambican Liberation Front and Frelimo, on the 23rd, protests against fraudulent elections have resumed, leading to confusion.

Frelimo has been in power for nearly 50 years since Mozambique gained independence from Portugal in 1975.
