This chapter explores how police officers in Maputo, Mozambique, deal with everyday criminal cases. It discusses how police officers draw on a large and flexible repertoire of measures when handling cases, some of them formal, others informal. Their choice is often shaped by the competition for legitimacy they find themselves in with communities and private actors
