The big court in Mozambique says Frelimo won the election back in October. But many people are angry because they think Frelimo cheated to win.
The party leader, Daniel Chapo, got lots of votes, and his party, Frelimo, won more seats in the law-making group, too. People from other countries who watched the voting said it wasn't fair. The Frelimo party has run Mozambique since 1975, when the country became free from Portugal.
Many people went to the streets to show they were upset. These were the biggest protests anyone has seen against Frelimo. The fighting turned bad, and at least 130 people died when they met the police, says a group called Plataforma Decide that keeps track of these things.
The court's decision might make more people protest. Frelimo says they played fair and won the right way, but many people in this country, almost 35 million, don't believe them. The group that runs the voting hasn't said anything about people saying they cheated.
