A human rights group has urged authorities in Mozambique to investigate the alleged use of tear gas by police forces during a funeral of a popular rapper known for his critical stance against the government.
Edson da Luz, known as Azagaia, died last week due to a sudden illness, and his death prompted vigils across Angola and Mozambique. In a new report on Thursday, Human Rights Watch (HRW) said the police dispersed his supporters using tear gas during his funeral on Tuesday.
