Mozambican opposition leader Venancio Mondlane, whose return from exile last week sparked confrontations between supporters and police in the capital Maputo, has called for three days of protests this week.

Mozambique opposition leader Venancio Mondlane has returned home after fleeing following a poll he says was rigged. Authorities fear a repeat of the deadly violence that followed the October election.

Mozambique’s main opposition leader returned from exile Thursday as security forces fired tear gas at hundreds of his supporters who gathered near the main international airport to welcome him home.
