'Mozambique should investigate alleged army abuses'
The government in Mozambique should investigate alleged human rights abuses committed by its army in Tete province in the north, Human Rights Watch says
Six thousand people have fled across the Malawian border and are now living in makeshift camps following attempts by the army to disarm opposition Renamo militia.
HRW researchers spoke to some of those who have fled, who told them that they fled army abuses and were scared about returning home.
The refugees said that soldiers killed family members and abused others.
HRW says that tensions have increased between the governing Frelimo party and the opposition since the 2014 election.
