Africa-Press<\/a> – Rwanda<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>A Rwandan businessman has been shot dead in Matola municipality, a few kilometres outside the Mozambican capital, Maputo.<\/p>\n

Revocant Karemangingo was shot about 50m (164ft) from his residence in the Liberdade neighbourhood on Monday afternoon.<\/p>\n

He was reportedly confronted by gunmen on three vehicles who intercepted his car before they fired a hail of bullets at him.<\/p>\n

The killers are so far not known, much less the reasons for the crime that shocked the neighbourhood and the Rwandan community in Mozambique.<\/p>\n

The police were at the scene for forensic work and the body was taken to a provincial hospital.<\/p>\n

Some Rwandans have told reporters that the deceased was among people who were being targeted because of their opposition to the current government in their home country.<\/p>\n

The Association of Rwandan Refugees in Mozambique said Karemangingo was a refugee doing pharmaceutical business and a victim of persecution by President Paul Kagame’s government.<\/p>\n

The Rwandan community has asked the Mozambican government to provide more protection.<\/p>\n

In 2019, another Rwandan, Louis Baziga, was shot dead in a similar style in a Maputo suburb after gunmen intercepted his car. He was a known supporter of the Rwandan government.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
