Cameroon: Arrest Warrant Reportedly Issued for Cameroon’s Bar President

The investigating judge at the High Court of the Lom and Djerem division in the East region of Cameroon, has reportedly issued an arrest warrant against Francis Jackson Ngnié Kamga, president of the Cameroon Bar Association, TCR has learnt.

“The bâtonnier and seven other co-defendants are indicted by this court for acts of swindling and conspiracy in forgery,” a French language newspaper called L'Anecdote of Friday, June 1, 2018 has reported.

According to the paper, the file of the case against the batonnier and others tells of “a cleverly orchestrated stratagem to fraudulently grab the inheritance of a family that turns out to be the owner of a company called Cfe, worth hundreds of millions of FCFA”.

These include three notarial deeds carrying curiously the same numbers, same folio, boxes, and numbers of slips, up to the same amounts of money paid by notaries presented as being co-accused of the president.

Francis Jackson Ngnié Kamga, is now forced to explain these facts that involve him.
