REUTERS/Grant Lee Neuenburg            The amnesty law will allow opposition ''Renamo party leader'',Afonso Dhlakama to leave his hide way in the bush to sign a peace accord with President Armando Guebuza and run in an October 15 election.The law was approved late on Tuesday also applied to Dhlakama's supporters who had clashed with the government army since 2012.The violence raised fears for stability in the Southern African nation which is developing big coal and off shore gas deposits.The amnesty is part of a peace deal between Renamo and Guebuza's ruling Frelimo party,old foes in a 1975-1992 civil war,and means Dhlakama will not face prosecution or arrest for the attacks carried out by his followers over the last year.Dhlakama,whose former rebel movement has been repeatedly defeated by Frelimo in elections since the end of the war,has lived in a bush base in Central Sofala province for more than a year to escape what he says is government persecution.He is now expected to travel to the capital Maputo to sign a formal peace accord with Guebuza ahead of the October 15 election,in which he has registered as Renamo's presidential candidate.The constitution bars Guebuza from running for a third term and former Defense minister Filipe Nyusi will run as the Frelimo candidate.
