Mozambique: Police assault Malawi truck driver

Malawi and Mozambique are investigating the alleged assault of a Malawian truck driver, Elasto Ngonyani, by Mozambican police at Zobue Border. The video clip showing uniformed Mozambican police beating Ngonyani went viral. Malawi's Consular General in Tete, Happy Saka, met with Mozambique's consular general to address the incident. The police commandant for Tete province assured follow-up on the matter. Ngonyani sustained injuries, including lumbar sliding disc loin pain, scalp lacerations, and pains in the knee and ankle. A medical report suggests potential challenges for the truck driver in the future. Ngonyani urges diplomatic efforts to curb police brutality on Mozambican roads, especially against foreigners.
