Suffice to say, if the sentiments are ignored by the public, a defamation suit may fail. Defamation is a civil matter, and one cannot be arrested for it. However, the defining factor is that it must be in a permanent form. The defining factor for slander is that there is no record of it after the sentiments are made. This could either be directly or by innuendo that is unmistakable. Just as assassination involves killing or finishing off someone, the same is true, save for the fact that it is one's character that undergoes that.

Cameroon: More information needed on Zogo assassination, says ... (The Africa Report)

Time may wait for no one, but it will be necessary for justice to be upheld. Yaoundé's military tribunal is requesting an additional investigation.

As a heavyweight of the government and former secretary general of the presidency, he would have been in communication with Belinga on the night of January 17 and 18, when Danwe’s team had just carried out the journalist’s kidnapping. That is what we believe will change the continent, and that is what we report on. While in police custody, Danwe reportedly cited the name of the Minister of Justice, Laurent Esso. If the latter denies having been aware of the operation, he is suspected of having, at the very least, given his approval. This executive of the Direction générale de la recherche extérieure (DGRE), who admitted to the investigators about having carried out the operation targeting Zogo, claimed to have acted on Belinga’s behalf. The accused were then returned to SED custody in the evening.
