The Maputo City Judicial Court has ordered the preventive detention of Venâncio Mondlane’s finance chief, Glória Nobre Chire, the Mozambican politician said on Friday. Glória Chire was detained late Wednesday (March 12) morning at her home in Maputo and, according to her family, the reason is still unknown.
Glória Monteiro Nobre Chire, 59, is a retired accountant who is currently in charge of the finances of Venâncio Mondlane, the former presidential candidate who is leading the challenge to the results of the 9 October elections in Mozambique. According to Mondlane, Glória Chire was prevented from speaking to her family and lawyer for 48 hours, but today she was brought before an investigating judge. “She was locked up, she couldn’t see her family, she was made out to be a criminal or a terrorist, without the presumption of innocence,” said the politician.
