In her report to the Mozambican parliament, the Assembly of the Republic, the Attorney-General, Beatriz Buchili, stated that “we are continuing to prepare the trial scheduled for October 2023, in the London High Court, pursuing the interlocutory measures”. But she did not mention the government’s refusal to share documents with the court, which may endanger the holding of the trial.
Because of the refusal of the Mozambican state to divulge essential documents about the hidden debts, the trial set for next October, in the High Court of England and Wales could be cancelled. The judge in the case, Robin Knowles, says that the refusal of Mozambique to share documents about the hidden debs could be in order to defend the personal interests of President Filipe Nyusi and damage the Mozambican people.
