Tchize dos Santos, mtoto wa aliyekuwa Rais wa Angola, Eduardo dos Santos amekata rufaa dhidi ya uamuzi wa Mahakama ya Hispania iliyoagiza mwili wa Eduardo ukabidhiwe kwa mjane wake, Ana Paula ili urejeshwe Angola kwa maziko.
Dos Santos aliyeshika madaraka 1979-2017 alifariki Julai 8, 2022 Jijini Barcelona, Hispania akiwa na umri wa miaka 79, tangu wakati huo kumekuwa na mzozo wa kuuzika mwili kati ya Serikali ya Angola, Ana Paula na watoto wa marehemu.
Tchize (44) amedai baba yake alitamani kuzikwa Barcelona alikokuwa akiishi tangu kuondoka madarakani 2017 na pia Ana Paula alikuwa ametengana na Dos Santos tangu 2017, na kwa hivyo hawezi kudai kuwa mke wake.

Daughter appeals Spanish court ruling on dos Santos body
A daughter of Angola’s former president Jose Eduardo dos Santos has appealed a Spanish court’s decision ordering his body to be released to his widow and returned home for burial.
The case was filed on Thursday by Tchize dos Santos, his 44-year-old daughter.
The former president ruled the oil-rich African nation with an iron first from 1979 to 2017, died in Barcelona on July 8 at the age of 79 after suffering a cardiac arrest.
Since then, the question of when and where he will be buried has pitted the Angolan government and his widow, Ana Paula, against some of his adult children.
On Tuesday, a Barcelona court ordered his remains to be delivered to Ana Paula and granted authorisation for “the repatriation and international transfer of (his) remains to Angola”.
But his daughter filed an appeal, arguing the court did not have the jurisdiction to rule on what was essentially a civil matter, court documents showed.
The appeal also argues that dos Santos and Ana Paula were separated since 2017 and “did not live in a situation of matrimonial normality”.
Tchize dos Santos has repeatedly said her father wished to be buried in Barcelona where he had mostly lived since stepping down in 2017.
She also argues her father’s burial in Angola would be used to favour the current government of Joao Lourenco ahead of crucial elections in the former Portuguese colony on August 24.
Just days after his death, a post-mortem was carried out at her request on the grounds that he had died in “suspicious circumstances”.
