Kumbo: Military arrests three hospital staff for treating wounded separatists

At least three staff of the Banso Baptist Hospital (BBH) in Kumbo, Bui Division of the North West region have been arrested by officers of the defence and security forces, MMI has gathered. They were detained on September 22, 2022, and have reportedly been taken to an undisclosed location. They include the administrator of Banso Baptist Hospital (BBH), Jean Sama, and two nurses: Teyeah Relindis and Teba Carine.

According to information gathered, they are accused of treating wounded armed separatists.

This comes a few days after two suspected separatists were pulled out of the hospital and executed by government soldiers.

The medical facility has in recent days come under target by the regular army.

It is alleged that, last Saturday, drugs which left BBH for Ndu Baptist Health Centre were confiscated en route.

MMI gathered on good authority that the hospital has equally been treating wounded soldiers without any reprisals.

Staff of the hospital have threatened to go on strike if the arrested colleagues are not released.
