Cameroon: RFI Correspondent Jailed for 10 Years

A military tribunal in Cameroon has sentenced Radio France Correspondent, Ahmed Abba, to ten years in prison.
 
He had been convicted of his associations with terrorist acts and laundering of proceeds from terrorism activities.
 
Reports say he was simply working on the Islamist militant group Boko Haram and that the sentence is a travesty of justice.

Mr Abba who has been in jail for almost two years insists he is innocent and will appeal.
