The car that was carrying the director of the Technical Secretariat for Electoral Administration in the city of Quelimane, Lourenço Fato, was completely torched by individuals who are now at large.

According to Diário da Zambézia, the incident took place at around midnight. While Fato was still asleep, he felt a bang in the yard and suddenly a fire broke out, hitting the car in the garage.

According to this media outlet, the car was rented and the owner had demanded that it be returned yesterday, but Fato did not do so.

The National Criminal Investigation Service (SERNIC) was called to the scene for forensic work. Incidentally, it's strange that the STAE director's house has PRM officers in garrison.

Remember that Lourenço Fato is seen as one of the key players in this electoral process... which culminated in the lack of signing of notices at the tables.

It should be noted that Renamo has decided not to accept the election results, which according to the CNE in that city give victory to the Frelimo party, because they do not reflect, according to Renamo, the will expressed at the polls by the voters.
