Maputo (MOZTIMES) – The Optimistic Party for the Development of Mozambique (PODEMOS) has called for the resignation of President Filipe Nyusi, commander-in-chief of the Mozambican Defence and Security Forces, following the running over of a demonstrator in Maputo, by a vehicle belonging to the Mozambican Armed Forces (FADM).
PODEMOS is also demanding the removal of the Attorney-General, Beatriz Buchili, and of the General Commander of the Police, Bernardino Rafael, as a first step towards the restoration of constitutional order, according to a statement issued by the party on Thursday.
The party, which supports presidential candidate Venâncio Mondlane, also said it is taking action at the International Criminal Court against these and other figures.
