Ruling party Frelimo came under increasing pressure from various directions during the year. In December, the United States brought criminal charges against three Mozambicans, as well as Credit Suisse bankers, in the $ 2 bn secret debt case. In October, the opposition won a record 9 of 53 towns and cities in high-turnout municipal elections. There was evidence that Frelimo’s victory in four municipalities was fraudulent. An insurgency in northern Cabo Delgado province continued, with more than 100 dead and 189 tried in secret. The long-term president of the armed opposition party Renamo died of diabetes, but a ceasefire and peace talks continued. Development of the huge offshore gas fields moved cautiously forward.
