On December 23, 2015, 54 inmates of the Kondengui Central Prison regained their freedom.

Incarcerated for reasons such as theft, property fraud and drug use, they were recognized victims of "arbitrary detention" by the judicial authorities.

Their nut lifting bulletins were delivered to them, and they joined their respective families.

Only the number of prisoners released that day could have been more important. According to the daily Mutations on Monday, December 28, 2015, the Public Prosecutor at the Court of First Instance of Yaounde Administrative Centre, Gérard Georges Meka, foresaw the release of 250 detainees.

The report went on to say that he had not agreed with Médar Bomotoliga Koalang on the number of prisoners who had served their sentences to be released.

"It was finally announced that 54 inmates were released instead of the 250 the prosecutor had intended to release. After an hour of discussion, the prosecutor announced the release of 54 people," wrote Mutations.

At the ceremony organized on this occasion, Gérard Georges Meka indicated that there has been "cases of escapes, deaths, cases still listed at the prosecution level which are not out yet but have already been released. These accounts for the less than 246 detainees released today."

The superintendent of the prison, to justify the number of detainees before finally been released, made mention of detainee transfers.

"At the prosecutor level, they do not always have this information. That's why you have these differences. As the superintendent, I have the duty to make sure that prisoners do not leave the prison except inmates who deserve to be," said the superintendent, Médar Bomotoliga Koalang.
