Africa-Press – Mozambique. <\/strong><\/span>Displaced people who are fleeing Islamist terrorists and their host families in the town of Chiu\u0301re, in the northern Mozambican province of Cabo Delgado, have accused the peasant militia, usually referred to as \u201clocal forces\u201d, of violating human rights and mistreating them following a curfew that they illegally imposed in the region.<\/p>\n

In recent months, some administrative posts in Chiu\u0301re district have been the target of terrorist attacks.<\/p>\n

According to sources cited in Thursday\u2019s issue of the independent newsheet \u201cCarta de Moc\u0327ambique\u201d, the local forces imposed a curfew as of 19.00, and made clear that anyone found travelling along the town\u2019s roads after this time will be threatened, tortured and even extorted for money.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s true. There are complaints everywhere about the actions of members of the local force. All they have to do is find people and they attack them mercilessly and take their money. It\u2019s been going on since April\u201d, a source said.<\/p>\n

Another source said \u201cJust this week, we saw people being beaten up because they were gathered here in the market. If they demanded documents, it wouldn\u2019t be a bad thing, but that\u2019s not what happens. They just mistreat people.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to another source, even the students on the evening course do not escape the abuses of members of the local force.<\/p>\n

The mayor of Chiu\u0301re municipality, Ali\u0301cora Intutunha, also went public to denounce the violation of human rights, in which the main victims of the Mozambican Forces (FDS) and the local force are residents and, in particular, motorbike taxi operators, when at around 7pm they are found circulating on the public highway.<\/p>\n

He explained that the FDS and the district administration had not formally informed him of the entry into force of a curfew.<\/p>\n

For his part, the Administrator of Chiu\u0301re district, Oliveira Amimo, denied that the government had decreed a curfew.<\/p>\n
