Mozambique Reporter Still Missing As Authorities Offer No Help
Media rights groups have been pressuring the Maputo government to help locate a Mozambique journalist who went missing one month ago in jihadist-hit Cabo Delgado province, as friends and relatives begin to fear the worst.
The journalist, who is in his thirties, reported on daily life in Palma, including the insurgency — which the government had denied until late last month. “We have no information about him yet,” police spokesman Augusto Guta told AFP on Friday. “As soon as we know something we’ll tell the press.” “MISA Mozambique triggered a series of processes to locate and release the journalist, including addressing a letter to President Nyusi,” the group said in a statement.According to the statement, police sources told MISA that Mbaruco was “taken by military personnel” to “interrogation barracks” in the northern Mueda district.
Froger, who also drew parallels between Mbaruco and Abubacar, added that all possibilities were still being considered.
