Three
(3) houses were turned to ashes and two (2) destroyed in the early hours of
Sunday, the 12th, in the locality of Sambene, specifically in the villages of
Naguasse and Sambene, in the Mecufi district, in the northern province of Cabo
Delgado, northern Mozambique.
A
43-year-old woman was physically assaulted and witnessed her house being
destroyed, after having been rebuilt following the damage caused by Cyclone
Chido in Sambene. She is accused of receiving and spreading medicine that
causes cholera. In the region, cases of acute diarrhea have already been
reported at the Mecufi Health Unit.
In
total, five (5) houses were destroyed, three of which were reduced to ashes that
night. It was the very population of the villages of Sambene and Naguasse that
planned and carried out the crime, according to sources from Mozanorte.
These
sources reported that the owners of the destroyed houses were pointed out by
the woman, who was captured early in the morning, and the locals began to beat
her. Desperate, she supposedly named four other people, but they fled when the
crowd went to their homes. (Libério Dinis)
