are directly relevant to them. The broadcasts help to disseminate information from the government to communities, for example, on disease prevention, natural disasters and development programmes. The community radio stations are largely politically neutral, although the CRM concurs with the CSAR’s viewpoint that programmes sponsored by the opposition may not be broadcast without clearance from a representative of the ruling party. Access to, and possession of, radios unfortunately limits the effect of this form of communication. 315. Dissemination of state policies, processes and programmes is fundamental to the development process. At the province and district levels, meetings are held to disseminate government policies, and this information is then passed on to the community. The leaders in Quelimane, for example, are doing a great deal of work in disseminating local government law, family law and the policy on fighting poverty. The provincial leaders informed the CRM that communities that received this information have registered an improvement in accessing CCCs and participating in development programmes. Right to Life, Liberty and Security 316. The Constitution provides for the right to life and liberty. Nevertheless, there are several examples where the security of people has been jeopardised. The CSAR notes that crime is on the increase in Mozambique and this was confirmed in all the provinces the CRM visited. Landmines 317. During interactive sessions with stakeholders, the CRM was informed that some active mines remain in several regions of the country. During the struggle for independence and the civil war, many landmines were planted. Not all have been removed; neither are all locations where mines were planted known. Stakeholders residing in Tete, Chimoio, confirmed the incidence of landmines, as well as those in Sofala province, Shiringoma province and Mwanza district. There are also many landmines in the Bandwa and Busi districts. Active mines prevent communities from carrying out farming practices and severely curtail movement and activities in certain areas. Several people have already been killed or maimed. Although demining has been carried out, the communities are unsure whether all the mines have been deactivated. Crime 318. Cross-border crime is a source of concern in Mozambique. Prohibited substances coming into the country via the Indian Ocean have been captured through police interventions. Trafficking in small arms, women or children is the commonest crime committed on the ocean. In February 2009, the Human Rights League issued a report on the incidence of trafficking in human organs.
