Africa-Press – Mozambique. <\/strong><\/span>Judge counsellor to the Constitutional Council (CC) of Mozambique, Albano Macie, on Monday proposed the extension of the terms of office of CC magistrates from five to nine years, non-renewable, to eliminate doubts about the independence of the entity.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf it is true that the expectation of renewing terms of office puts the independence of counsellor judges at risk, then we understand that we should move to a system in which they can have longer terms of office, without the possibility of renewal,\u201d said Macie.<\/p>\n

There are countries that already follow the model of lengthier, non-renewable terms for magistrates, he added.<\/p>\n

The Constitution of the Republic of Mozambique requires that CC advisory judges have five-year terms of office, renewable for the same period.<\/p>\n

The president of the CC is appointed by the President of the Republic, and the remaining advisory judges by the Assembly of the Republic, in accordance with the principle of proportionality. One is nominated by the Superior Council of the Judiciary (CSMJ).<\/p>\n

The CC is under great pressure in Mozambique, which waits for the body to validate and proclaim the results of the October 11 municipal elections.<\/p>\n

The opposition has held demonstrations against the results announced by the National Elections Commission (CNE), which give victory to the Front for the Liberation of Mozambique (Frelimo), the party in power, in 64 of the 65 municipalities, with the exception of the city of Beira, which went to the MDM.<\/p>\n

The Mozambican National Resistance (Renamo), the main opposition party, which in the previous 53 municipalities (12 new municipalities were created this year) led in eight, was left without any municipalities, despite claiming victory in the country\u2019s largest cities, based on the minutes and original notices from polling stations, having appealed to the CC, the last instance of appeal in the electoral process.<\/p>\n

Some district courts recognized irregularities in the electoral process and ordered the repetition of several electoral acts, while street demonstrations contesting the announced results are regularly held, which have yet to be confirmed by the CC.<\/p>\n
