Anglophone Crisis: Dozens of youths arrested, beaten up, detained by Cameroon soldiers in Meme

Dozens of youths have been arrested, beaten up and undressed publicly by soldiers in Matoh, a village in Konye, Meme Division, South West region of Cameroon.

The arrest according to reports was in a bid to capture Ambazonian fighters.

“They were forcefully taken out of their houses in a military raid carried out on the morning of Thursday, March 2, 2023 at about 2:0 AM,” a source revealed to MMI.

“Later in the day, they were forced to trek for more than three hours from Matoh to mile 12-Diongo,” our source went on.
