Gruesome crimes of
violence at home over the past week have shocked Mozambicans.
BBC
Africa Live report continues:
In
one incident a man killed his wife before committing suicide, leaving two
children behind.
In
another, a woman burned her husband on several parts of his body with boiling
cooking oil and kerosene, including his face and genitals.
A
further case saw parents beat their 14-year old daughter to death because she
was in love with a 47-year-old man.
These
cases follows the high-profile murder of Valentina Guebuza, the daughter of a
former president and one of the country's richest women, in December.
Police
said the killing appeared to be a case of domestic violence.
The government says the
brutality is the result of an erosion of moral values.
