This Wednesday, March 1, the Assembly of the Republic (AR) will discuss, behind closed doors, the report of the Parliamentary Commission of Inquiry (CPI) set up to investigate the alleged involvement of a member of the Assembly of the Republic in drug trafficking in Zambezia.

According to a 56-page document cited by the Center for Democracy and Development (CDD), the seven deputies who made up the CPI say they found no evidence of an RA deputy's involvement in drug trafficking.

The document states that of the various institutions heard by the CPI, none has confirmed the involvement of the MP (whose name is not yet known) in drug trafficking, or at the very least the existence of evidence that criminalizes the MP.

It is worth remembering that the information about the alleged case of drug trafficking involving a member of parliament was raised by the Renamo caucus, through MP Venâncio Mondlane.
