Beatrice Buchili

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Beatriz da Consolação Mateus Buchili , Beatriz Buchili for short , is a Mozambican lawyer and has been the General Prosecutor of Mozambique since 2014 .

Life

Beatriz Buchili studied law at the Eduardo Mondlane University in Maputo until 1999. This was followed by a master's degree in law at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul in Porto Alegre (Brazil) until 2007. She completed her studies with a master's thesis for comparison between the legal pluralismo and the socio-cultural reality in Mozambique.

Even before her studies, since 1994, Buchili worked for the public prosecutor as a district public prosecutor. This was followed by duties as Attorney General for the provinces of Cabo Delgado (2001–2005) and Sofala (2008–2011). In 2011, Buchili was appointed deputy second prosecutor at the Supreme Court of Appeal of the City of Maputo.

In 2014 she appointed President Armando Guebuza as the new Attorney General. She succeeded Augusto Paulino , who had held this position since 2007. In 2019, President Filipe Nyusi extended Buchili's mandate for another five years.

The Mozambican opposition ( RENAMO , MDM ) criticized Buchili's work because it was either slow to deal with numerous cases or not at all. Neither political murders (e.g. Gilles Cistac ) nor the hidden debts in the context of the EMATUM scandal were dealt with by Buchili.
