Mozambique’s main opposition leader returned from weeks of exile Thursday, insisting he won October’s presidential elections and welcomed by thousands of jubilant supporters, although one person was killed as police tried to disperse the crowds. Several people were also wounded as police barred supporters from going to the international airport to meet Venancio Mondlane, who knelt on the ground holding a bible as he exited the terminal. Mondlane, who had been away for more than two months, returned as Daniel Chapo of the ruling Frelimo party prepares to be sworn in as president on January 15.
