PRM prevents vigil for “Cebolinha” family

The Police of the Republic of Mozambique used dogs and a strong contingent to suppress a vigil. The plan belonged to the family of the young man who died in the cells of the third police station, in Maputo.

The Police say they did what they did because there was an intention to disturb public peace. As for the young man's death, the family says he was murdered, while the PRM says it was a brain stroke.

“Why did they kill my son? What did he do?" These are questions from an aunt who suddenly lost her nephew under strange circumstances. Massacar Abacar was arrested last week by agents of the Police of the Republic of Mozambique.

The arrest was on Thursday and on Saturday morning, he died! These reasons left the family in tears and angry, all because they understood that the Police murdered him.

“They put plastic on his face to stop him from breathing and killed him,” said Sérgio Raimundo, the victim’s brother.

Outraged, the family decided to join some members of civil society to hold a vigil in front of the third police station.

It was not even possible to get close to the police subunit. The agents, reinforced by dogs, not only blocked the passage of the victim's family, but also of all citizens.

After learning of young Cebolinha's arrest, the mother says she approached the third police station, but was prevented from seeing her son. “When I arrived at the police station I asked if my son was detained, they responded positively, I said I wanted to see my son and they wouldn’t let me see my son,” said the victim’s mother.
