The start of the election campaign ahead of Mozambique's general and provincial elections, scheduled for 28 October, was marred by serious acts of violence on Sunday morning when a gang of youths, apparently consisting of supporters of the ruling Frelimo Party, attacked and looted an office of the opposition Mozambique Democratic Movement in the southern province of Gaza.
