What initially appeared to be a coincidence quickly raised red flags within the command structure after several female officers were discovered to be pregnant around the same time. The unusual pattern reportedly prompted senior officials to initiate a quiet but urgent internal investigation to determine what had transpired within the training facility.
According to K24 digital news media, authorities in Mozambique responded by placing the two trainers on leave while formal investigations were underway. As inquiries deepened, investigators uncovered disturbing claims that some female trainees had been subjected to sexual harassment. The probe reportedly revealed that certain trainers allegedly exploited their positions of authority, coercing trainees into sexual relationships in exchange for favorable treatment during assessments and evaluations.

The revelations exposed what sources described as systemic misconduct within the academy, raising serious questions about oversight, ethics enforcement, and the protection of recruits within security institutions.
Following a panel investigation, the two trainers were found guilty of sexual harassment. The findings intensified calls for institutional reforms and stronger safeguarding mechanisms within training facilities.
A women-focused non-governmental organisation played a critical role in amplifying the voices of the affected trainees and pushing for accountability. The group has since called for stricter disciplinary frameworks, enhanced reporting systems, and independent monitoring of police academies to prevent abuse of power.
The scandal has sparked national debate over professionalism, accountability, and the vulnerability of trainees within hierarchical institutions, with many demanding sweeping reforms to restore public trust in the force.
