March 3, 2024, Victoria, Limbe, Fako State Southern Ambazonia: An unidentified commercial motorbike rider fell victim to the oppressive actions of the CAMEROON OCCUPATION FORCES. The rider was abducted and subsequently murdered without justification. Eyewitnesses reported that the refusal to pay a bribe led to this extrajudicial killing of the motorbike rider. This act of violence against a civilian exemplifies the lawlessness imposed by the occupying forces in Southern Ambazonia.

A War Crime Under International Humanitarian LAW
This heinous act constitutes a War Crime, as it involves the abduction and extrajudicial killing of the motorbike rider, a non-combatant civilian. Under International Humanitarian LAW, particularly the Geneva Conventions, civilians are granted protections against violence, unlawful detention, and execution. Article 3, common to all four Geneva Conventions, explicitly prohibits extrajudicial killings, cruel treatment, and violence against those not engaged in hostilities. The execution of this motorbike rider is a blatant violation of these fundamental legal protections.

Violation of the Rome Statute and International LAWS
Under the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court, Article 8 categorizes acts such as unlawful detention and extrajudicial killing of the motorbike rider as War Crimes. The CAMEROON OCCUPATION FORCES’ actions—demanding a bribe and subsequently executing the civilian—exemplify the abuse of power and gross violation of International LAWS. Such acts highlight the urgent need for accountability and justice for the people of Ambazonia.

Extrajudicial Killings as a Pattern of Oppression
The extrajudicial killing of the motorbike rider is not an isolated event but part of a broader pattern of systematic oppression by the CAMEROON OCCUPATION FORCES. Civilians in Ambazonia continue to suffer from unlawful detentions, torture, and executions without due process. These repeated acts of extrajudicial killing violate human rights and defy International LAWS meant to protect civilians in armed conflict.

Call for Justice and International Intervention
The extrajudicial killing of the motorbike rider underscores the urgent need for international bodies to intervene and hold CAMEROON OCCUPATION FORCES accountable. Without decisive action, civilians in Ambazonia will continue to face unchecked violence and war crimes. The international community must uphold justice and ensure that perpetrators face consequences for their actions.
