Police in Mocuba district, Zambézia province, stopped a vehicle during inspection operations on a Saturday, according to Club of Mozambique, citing Lusa. About 230 kg of cannabis was found hidden in 23 sacks of cassava, reportedly bound for Nampula province.
Two men were arrested: the alleged vehicle owner and the driver. Both are held at a local police subunit in Mocuba. Police also destroyed a cannabis field of roughly half a hectare nearby; its owners fled and are being sought. No one is named.
Why it matters: This is a trafficking-scale seizure. The report gives no charges or court steps.
