Mozambique Unrest | Civil society coalition urges dialogue

MOZAMBIQUE - Civil society organisations from across Southern Africa are urging the Mozambique government to protect opposition leader Vanencio Mondlane. 

Mondlane is back in the country after three months in self-imposed exile.

He is now calling for the protests against Frelimo's election victory to continue.

Since the October elections, waves of protests have left over 200 people dead.

A delegation from the Joint Regional Civil Society Working Group visited Mozambique in December to assess the situation. 

The Crisis in Zimbabwe Coalition was part of the delegation.
