Africa-Press – Mozambique. <\/strong><\/span>Dozens of Mozambican journalists marched in Maputo on Monday (18-12) against a perceived \u201cimpunity\u201d regarding crimes targeting members of the press, a demonstration culminating in the submission of a petition to the Attorney General\u2019s Office (PGR).<\/p>\n

\u201cWe left a petition asking for strong action from the Public Prosecutor\u2019s Office in relation to crimes against media professionals,\u201d declared Jeremias Langa, president of the Media Institute of Southern Africa (MISA Moc\u0327ambique), the non-governmental organisation that called for the march.<\/p>\n

The march was also called to demand clarification in the death of Joa\u0303o Chamusse, a Mozambican journalist and television commentator who was killed on Thursday at his home in Maputo in circumstances that have not yet been clarified.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe left another document, which is a criminal complaint against persons unknown (…) Fundamentally, we came here to appeal to the Public Prosecutor\u2019s Office to exercise its powers as the holder of the criminal prosecution, to carry out a serious and in-depth investigation that will allow us to get to the truth of the matter,\u201d said Jeremias Langa.<\/p>\n

Singing hymns in praise of freedom of expression and the press, the group, also made up of activists, walked about two kilometres from Avenida Vladimir Lenine to the Attorney General\u2019s Office, shouting in unison, \u201cChamusse, your voice will not be silenced\u201d, in tribute to the Mozambican journalist who was killed.<\/p>\n

Joa\u0303o Chamusse, 59 years old, was found dead on Thursday in the backyard of his residence, in Nsime, Maputo province, his naked body sporting a wound on the back of his head.<\/p>\n

On Friday, the Police of the Republic of Mozambique announced the arrest of a suspect in Chamusse\u2019s murder, a 44-year-old citizen who was a neighbour of the journalist.<\/p>\n

A commercial pilot trained at the Lisbon Aeronautical School, Joa\u0303o Chamusse was the editorial director of the electronic newspaper \u201cPonto por Ponto\u201d and a television commentator, characterised by his critical, ironic and sometimes comical approach, especially to domestic political issues.<\/p>\n
