Mr. Kari Felix, a civilian, was targeted and tortured without any justifiable military necessity. This action by Cameroon occupation forces militial constitutes a war crime under Article 8 of the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court (ICC).

Breach of Human Rights in AmbazoniaThe execution of Mr. Felix is a clear breach of fundamental human rights, including the right to life as enshrined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR). The Cameroon occupation forces’ actions reflect a broader pattern of systemic abuse, including arbitrary killings, torture, and suppression of the Ambazonian people’s right to self-determination.

International Legal ImplicationsUnder International Law, all parties to a conflict are obligated to protect civilians and prevent acts of violence against them. The abduction and torture of Mr. Felix by state-backed forces highlights Cameroon’s disregard for these obligations. The international community is urged to investigate and hold those responsible accountable through appropriate legal mechanisms, including the ICC.

Call for Justice and AccountabilityThis incident underscores the urgent need for international intervention to address the ongoing crisis in Ambazonia. Ensuring justice for victims like Mr. Kari Felix is essential to upholding human rights and preventing further atrocities by Cameroon occupation forces.
