Cameroon: Military Tribunal postpones trial of Radio France International reporter

The trial of Hamed Abba, a reporter in the Hausa language with Radio France International which opened on Monday in the Yaounde Military Tribunal was postponed to 28 March 2016, at the request of the prosecutor. 

Arrested in late July 2015, in the Far North region of Cameroon in possession of two identity cards (Nigeria and Cameroon) Ahmed Abba has always claimed not to be a terrorist. Reporters Without Borders has described his detention as "arbitrary" and illegal."

He was detained in "total secrecy" without any possibility to get in touch with his family and lawyer.
