Military accused of killing four in Malende

Four civilians are said to have been killed in Malende, South West region by government forces.

The four farmers eyewitnesses say, were taken away during the early hours of Tuesday October 22, 2019, by the men in uniform for questioning, on whereabouts of Ambazonian fighters.

Residents say the four were later killed and their bodies dumped. “They had explained they have no Knowledge on the Ambazonia Fighters camps,” the source said.

This comes among several raids carried out by members of the armed forces in other villages across the North West and South West regions hit by conflict.

Rights groups say innocent civilians have been killed in their thousands since the crisis started in 2016, with hundreds in detention facilities.
