We are working not only on this case, but also on other cases of kidnapping in Maputo city,\u201d SERNIC spokesman Hila\u0301rio Lole declared.<\/p>\n<p>SERNIC is not revealing details of the status of the investigation, but guarantees that it will be clarified as soon as possible.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere are clear developments. Work on the ground has been carried out by SERNIC, in coordination with various institutions, and we believe that, in a short period, we can secure the results inherent in this case,\u201d Lole promised.<\/p>\n<p>The SERNIC spokesperson was speaking after the presentation, unconnected, of two individuals arrested on charges of selling and consuming drugs in Maputo\u2019s Maxaquene and Mafalala neighbourhoods.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI wasn\u2019t selling drugs. I was in the backyard. I never sold drugs. I\u2019m going to South Africa to buy clothes to resell. I am a trader,\u201d explained one of the defendants, denying the accusation against him.<\/p>\n<p>The other man, however, openly confessed: \u201cThey found me in a house, which is a smokehouse, selling drugs. I am a mason by profession. I don\u2019t know how I got myself into this. The devil entered me\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Those accused did not reveal the source of the drugs in question, but the National Criminal Investigation Service says it has good leads.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe already have their identities in our possession. These individuals are also seen as potential drug traffickers in Maputo City and there are already some cases against them, as well as arrest warrants against them,\u201d Lole commented.<\/p>\n<p>The drugs presented this Tuesday \u2013 cannabis sativa, \u2018rock\u2019 and cocaine \u2013 were valued at 150,000 meticais.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/mozambique\">Mozambique<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Mozambique.
