This illegal base of the Renamo militia was set up late last year in Sabe locality and given the title of a "general staff headquarters". It is from this base, that Renamo has launched attacks in Morrumbala and neighbouring districts.
STV reported that eight people died in the festivities, but this figure has not been confirmed, either by Renamo or by the police
The police spokesperson in Zambezia, Jacinto Felix, told news hounds "the defence and security forces stormed the Renamo headquarters in Morrumbala, and currently a team is on the ground assessing the damage caused".
But he claimed that nobody had been killed or injured in the attack which lasted for about two hours. The Renamo gunnies all fled from Sabe.
