FRELIMO DEPUTY REMOVES NINI SATAR FROM FACEBOOK LIST

Eduardo Galiza-Matos Junior, a parliamentary deputy of Mozambique’s ruling Frelimo Party, on Wednesday told AIM he is deleting the name of Momad Assife Abdul Satar (“Nini”), one of the men who ordered the assassination in 2000 of the country’s top investigative journalist, Carlos Cardoso, from his list of friends on the social networking Internet site, Facebook.Galiza-Matos also categorically denied that he had ever written anything about Satar on his own Facebook page. He was cited, in Tuesday’s issue of the newsheet “CanalMoz” as saying “Nini Satar asked me to be a friend and I accepted”, and that “although he is in jail, I think he has his rights”.Galiza-Matos says these words were attributed to him by “CanalMoz”, and that he never wrote them.As yet, there has been no official reaction from the Justice Ministry to the revelation that a convicted murderer not only has Internet access, but runs his own Facebook page, in violation of all the rules governing the access of prisoners to communications.Nini Satar is currently serving a 24 year sentence in the Maputo top security prison for his part in the assassination of Carlos Cardoso.
