Evo Fernandes só foi morto três dias depois de desaparecer

Evo Fernandes: Moçambique rejeita acusações

Renamo_Pretoria_Evo EVO FERNANDES, o diri­gente da Renamo encontrado morto, na quinta-feira, na Malveira da Serra, terá sido abatido menos de 24 horas antes de o respectivo corpo ter sido localizado. A autópsia, feita ontem, mostrou que ti­nha sido vitimado por um tiro no coração, como declarou a PJ, mas o corpo mostrava também perfurações de bala de calibre 6.35 na cabeça (de um tiro dado aparentemente de cima para baixo, porque o projéctil viria a sair pelo pescoço e mais três, no tórax e no ventre.
Informações que o EX­PRESSO obteve indicam também que o rosto estava barbeado, sendo de estranhar que um raptado tivesse tido a preocupação de cuidar desse aspecto. Isto leva a concluir que Evo Fernandes pode não ter estado sempre sob rigoroso sequestro. A roupa, porém, era aquela com que saíra de casa no domingo à noite.

O calibre das balas indica, por outro lado, que poderá ter sido utilizada uma pistola vulgar, de venda e le­galização acessível a qualquer pessoa.
Quanto a Alexandre Chagas, que com ele jantou no domingo, no Restaurante Beira-Mar, em Cascais, acti­vamente procurado, foi conhecido que teria estado hospedado anteriormente num hotel da Costa de Caparica. O EXPRESSO pôde ontem contactar com o seu pai, residente naquela zona da margem sul do Tejo, mas este recusou-se a fazer quaisquer comentários ou esclarecimentos sobre o assunto, limitando-se a dizer que a PJ se encarregaria de saber tudo.
Soubemos também que as fronteiras estão fortemente vigiadas, com instruções es­peciais a todas as forças de segurança para uma ampla operação de «caça ao ho­mem». «Todas as policias estão empenhadas na resolução deste caso», disse ao EX­PRESSO o Gabinete do primeiro-ministro.
A polícia está igualmente empenhada em conhecer o papel desempenhado por um homem de negócios de Lis­boa, Manuel Sacramento Gaudêncio, com escritório no Campo Grande, que esteve envolvido em relações ainda não clarificadas com Alexan­dre Xavier Chagas, que se re­lacionariam inicialmente com negócios, mas que resultaram num empenhamento para realizar um encontro entre emissários «moderados» do Estado moçambicano (cujos nomes não poderiam ser reve­lados por motivos de segu­rança) e responsáveis da Renamo.
Em contacto com Manuel Gaudêncio, foi-nos dito que isso lhe tinha sido pedido por Chagas, que em certa altura lhe apresentou trás pessoas pertencentes ao movimento rebelde e que seriam Artur Janeiro da Fonseca (residente em Bona), Manuel Frank, porta-voz em Lisboa, e Ascêncio de Freitas, a funcionar co­mo responsável da parte fi­nanceira da Renamo em Por­tugal.
Nesse encontro, também a pe­dido de Chagas, teria ficado as­sente que a conferência poderia vir a ter lugar numa herdade «de grande turismo» fora de Lisboa, a sul do Tejo.
Viúva de Evo vai guardar cinzas
A família de Evo Fernandes atribui, porém, a Gaudêncio al­gum envolvimento no encontro do dirigente da Renamo com Xavier Chagas, de que viria a re­sultar o jantar em Cascais, que poderia ter sido aceite para acer­tar o encontro político de que ti­nham falado.
A viúva de Evo Fernandes mantém que a morte do marido não representa um ajuste de con­tas entre facções rivais dentro da Renamo, «pois, apesar das diver­gências, ele estava em consonân­cia com os outros elementos da organização».
Ivete Fernandes revelou ao EXPRESSO que deseja mandar cremar o corpo do marido e que «guardará as cinzas para um dia, quando puder ir a Moçambique, as espalhar por cima daquele país».
Embora posteriormente tenha declarado que não conhecia senão superficialmente as actividades de Evo Fernandes, a mulher disse-nos expressamente, na terça-feira: «O meu marido estava en­volvido num processo de negociações com a Frelimo, em completa sintonia com o presi­dente Dlakhama e com a Renamo. Se ele aceitou jantar com aquelas pessoas, isso deveu-se ao facto de o jantar ser mesmo para preparar as negociações, para preparar a apresentação de pes­soas do Governo de Maputo, para estabelecer uma agenda de traba­lho».
Recorda-se que Evo Fernandes tinha estado já este ano em terri­tório de Moçambique, segundo fez saber em Portugal, e que para lá viajou num «Dakota» sem ma­trícula, com Artur Janeiro da Fonseca, a partir da África do Sul — e que ambos viriam a ser reco­lhidos, também de avião, mais tarde.
A morte violenta de Evo Fer­nandes vem chamar a atenção para acontecimentos semelhantes ocorridos recentemente. Recorde-se o desaparecimento de dois outros dirigentes numa estrada do Malawi, em Dezembro do ano passado, para além da fuga para Maputo do antigo porta-voz Paulo Oliveira, na sequência de eventuais ameaças que tinha re­cebido em Lisboa.
Agente de Moçambique esteve em Lisboa
Uma fonte diplomática mo­çambicana contactada ontem pelo EXPRESSO reafirmava a posição do Governo de Maputo: «Nós não usamos esses processos, repu­diamos esse tipo de actuação».
O mesmo informador declarou que nenhuma instância moçam­bicana poderia estar por trás da eliminação física de Evo Fernan­des — contrapondo-se assim às reiteradas acusações da viúva, segundo as quais «agentes de Maputo» terão estado na origem do crime, que começou com o rapto da vítima, no domingo de­pois de um jantar em Cascais, e que culminou com o assassinato do dirigente rebelde, ultimamente afastado das suas funções de secretário-geral da Resistência Na­cional Moçambicana, mas que mantinha um estatuto especial nos contactos com o líder dos rebel­des, Afonso Dlakhama. Ivete Corte-Real Fernandes, mãe de cinco filhos e segunda mulher de Evo Fernandes, disse textual­mente ao EXPRESSO, antes de saber da morte do marido: «Trata-se sem dúvida de um rapto po­lítico em que está envolvido o Snasp, mas não só: o americano Tom Schaff está também envol­vido. Ele tem tentado sempre criar problemas à Renamo, a mando do delegado nos Estados Unidos, Luis Serapião».
Registe-se, a este respeito, que as autoridades portuguesas detec­taram também, segundo o EX­PRESSO soube ontem, que dias antes do desaparecimento da ví­tima esteve em Lisboa o agente da Snasp Inácio Natividade, que usa também o nome de Ahmad Mikimede, um homem que partiu para Maputo no avião de segunda-feira à noite.
Filho de um comerciante
Evo Fernandes, um português de 44 anos de origem goesa nas­cido na Beira, em Moçambique, foi um dos primeiros elementos da então RNM, estabelecida na antiga Rodésia.
O passado de Evo Fernandes (filho de um pequeno comerciante estabelecido naquela cidade, que também geria um modesto hotel) ficou ligado à sua actividade junto de Kaúlza de Arriaga, no sector de Justiça Militar, de onde passou para a Judiciária de Moçambique, antes de optar por um papel tido por importante próximo de Jorge Jardim.
Regressado à capital portugue­sa, onde tinha concluído o curso de Direito antes de entrar nas Forças Armadas, foi administra­dor da Bertrand e manteve com Manuel Boullosa um relaciona­mento que teve repercussões na continuidade da Renamo.
De então para cá, manteve-se em lugar-chave da organização, quer como secretário-geral quer, mais tarde, como responsável por um departamento de estudos.

Evo Camões Fernandes, 1944-1988

Dossier MZ-0015
Decoration
Evo Camões Fernandes nasceu na Beira e desde cedo surge ligado ao empresário de extrema-direita Jorge Jardim. Antigo inspector da polícia judiciária militar em Moçambique e jornalista (no Notícias da Beira) nos meados da década de oitenta chegou a secretário-geral do MNR (Renamo). Foi morto em circunstâncias controversas em Lisboa, em 1988, e muitos dos artigos deste dossier têm a ver com este acontecimento e o que se passou no seu rescaldo. Em Julho de 1989 o cidadão português Alexandre Chagas seria condenado por tal assassinato, num tribunal português, a 18 anos de cadeia.

Evo Camões Fernandes was born in Beira and as a young man was an associate of the right-wing industrialist Jorge Jardim. He was a former policeman and journalist (at Notícias da Beira) who acted in the early 1980s as secretary-general of the MNR (later Renamo). He was killed in controversial circumstances in Lisbon in 1988, and most of the items in this dossier deal with that event and its aftermath. In July 1989 Alexandre Chagas was convicted of his murder in a Portuguese court, and sentenced to a gaol term of eighteen years.
In his book on Renamo, Alex Vines proposes, following evidence in Portuguese police files, that an attempt had been made to persuade Fernandes to defect to Maputo. When he refused, he was killed to avoid the possibility of a damaging scandal (Renamo: terrorism in Mozambique [London: James Currey, 1991], p.38).
The legacy of Evo Fernandes in the institutional memory of Renamo remains contested. In a widely-reported incident in October 2008, his widow, Ivete Fernandes, launched a stinging verbal attack on Afonso Dhlakama and the Renamo leadership for their failure to recognise and acknowledge the contribution that Evo Fernandes had made to the development of the MNR. ‘It was my husband who gave a political touch to Renamo in 1983’, she is quoted as saying, accusing Dhlakama of being a demagogue who was only interested in making people laugh.
