Abdul Karim Ali, The Southern
Cameroons (Ambazonia) Justice for Peace crusader and Islamic scholar of
international repute who was abducted by a mixed contingent of the uniformed
and non-uniformed gendarmes on the 25th September 2019 is being starved to death!
Abdul Karim was abducted in front of the Swiss Embassy in Yaounde as he stepped
out after a conversation with the Swiss Ambassador, about the recently held
mediation conference in Geneva at the behest of Humanitarian Centre for
Dialogue (HD).
Abdulkarim was whisked off to the
Gendarmerie Headquarters better known by it’s French acronym SED where he is
being incarcerated without food or water. The commander on duty at the Service
Central Des Recherches Judiciaire (SCRJ), where he is confined, denied him
access to family and lawyers until Monday the 30th September. When they
eventually allowed only the lawyer to see him! He denied drinking any water and
eating any food offered by the gendarmes and insisted that he would only drink
water and eat food brought by his lawyers or family members. The Gendarmerie as
of today Tuesday 8th October 2019 denied him all food and water brought by
family on the frivolous excuse that hierarchy has not authorized it. Even the
palette of water brought by his lawyers since Friday has not been given to him.
He is reportedly very frail and worn out as of today 08/10/2019. He has now
stayed without food and water for almost two full weeks!!!
Abdulkarim has neither been
interrogated nor charged to court for any known offence. His lawyers Barr
AYUKOTANG Ndep Nkongho and Barr FONKA TOMNYUY have filed an Application of
Habeas Corpus praying the court to order his immediate production before the
High Court of Mfoundi Yaounde for the court to assess the validity of his
abduction and continuous incarceration and order his release and compensation.
