Taibo Mucobora said that the
investigation carried out to date concludes that crimes of abuse of
office were committed, which constitute a criminal offence.
The deputy attorney general said that
the ongoing investigation aims to gather information both in Mozambique
and abroad, which will entail the activation of diplomatic and other
appropriate channels with countries that are being identified.
Mucobora did not specify how long it
would take to gather evidence, noting only that experts were conducting
each step carefully in order to obtain relevant, important, and
especially reliable information, according to Mozambican daily newspaper
Noticias.
The three public companies – Empresa
Moçambicana de Atum, Proindicus and Mozambique Asset Managament – took
on loans with state guarantees in the total of US$2 billion.
