UN praises fight against drug trafficking in Mozambique | Club of Mozambique

File photo: DW United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) representative in Mozambique, César Guedes, says that recent seizures of heroin in the north and off the coast of Mozambique show that the authorities are “more effective”. In July 2020, the United States identified drug trafficking off the coast of Mozambique as the main source of funding for terrorist networks. “If we have seizures, it is good news: it means that the authorities are – with international cooperation – doing a more accurate, more dedicated, more professional job,” Guedes told Lusa in an interview. At the end of January, a French navy frigate seized 444 kilos of methamphetamine and heroin in a dhow in the Mozambique Channel, where France has some islands. The drugs were valued at more than €40 million. At the same time, Mozambican police detained a man in possession of 61 kilograms of heroin and five kilograms of methamphetamine in Nacala Porto, in the province of Nampula.
