Military Rule or Anarchy? Soldiers send complainant, ‘amba crooks’ to prison for failing to pay FCF
Military Rule or Anarchy? Soldiers send complainant, ‘amba crooks’ to prison for failing to pay FCFA 800, 000 ‘bribe’.
Soldiers have resorted to trading freedom for suspected “amba crooks” in the North West and South West regions.
Their much vaunted ‘professionalism’ was once more sacrificed on the altar of extortion when a complainant took his case to them against two suspects but got imprisoned himself for not coughing out a ‘fee’ to get justice done.
As per reports, two of the three detainees, Kechanyi Joel and Kenye Elvis were arrested six weeks ago by the military after a complaint was filed against the pair by the third detainee, Mr. Toscha.
The complaint filed by Mr. Toscha amongst others stated that in 2018, while on his way to bury his father, a group of armed-to-the-teeth separatists stopped their convoy and demanded a ransom for the corpse they were going to bury.
According to their lawyer, Barrister Tamfu Richard, the complaint’s statement reveals that one of the boys amongst the separatist fighters was Elvis Kenyene.
“No further information was provided by the complaint submitted. The second detainee, Kachanyi Joel who happens to be Mr. Toscha’s nephew was equally reported by the latter for moving with ex-separatist fighters,” Barrister Tamfu writes to MMI.
While the two accused were being detained and investigations carried out by the military, a condition was put forth by the soldiers to both the complainant and the suspects to hand in an amount of FCFA 800,000 or else be sent to the New Bell Prison in Douala.
Unable to provide the sum as the military had demanded, the suspects alongside the complainant were all whisked off to the New Bell prison as promised by the military.
This case once again shows the extent to which the Cameroon defence forces will go to make money as they impose terror on the population.
