An anti-Biya group, Movement for Alternance in Cameroon, MAC, has said it is filing a suit in international courts against the government of Cameroon, following the gov’t’s intransigence to investigated or open up on media reports that the regime’s security forces kidnapped and murdered Captain Gurenadi Mbara Goulongo, plotter of the 1984 aborted coup d’etat.

Movement sources told The Journal, that they are bent on taking the government of Cameroon to all competent human rights courts abroad to unearth the truth about Guerandi’s alleged assassination.

Goulongo’s death was announced late last year by the French language Pan African magazine, Jeune Afrique. He had been in exile since 1984, after the failed plot to topple the Biya regime. But unlike some of his accomplices, he had remained critical of the Biya’s regime and continually threatened to return and seize power.

Rene Dassie, Communication Secretary of MAC in Cameroon stated in a release that they are going to seek justice in legal jurisdictions such as the African Union, CEMAC, competent UN commissions and other international human rights organisations to which conventions Cameroon is a signatory.

He said they are prompted to court by the fact that their requests for a parliamentary inquiry into the alleged murder has not been considered by the government of Cameroon, adding that Goulongo’s case appears to be a state crime.

The movement wants to force the government to give its own side of the story, they said, because it has maintained sealed lips ever since the information was reported in Jeune Afrique and by local media. MAC is also setting up some sort of vigilante group that would prevent the kidnap of political leaders in Cameroon.

Goulongo’s supposed murder was announced in September last year. Jeune Afrique published an in-depth report, explaining how he was tricked, rugged, kidnapped, and transferred to Cameroon and then executed somewhere along the Yaoundé-Douala highway.

Maurice Kamto, University lecturer and former minister delegate to the minister of justice who resigned from government to lead the Movement for the Renaissance of Cameroon, held a press conference after the report and corroborated claims from a Portuguese mercenary, Alberto Fernades Arbrantes who confessed to have executed the plan on the order of the Biya’s regime.

Kamto said 387 Million FCFA of Cameroon tax payers’ money was spent in the operation. Since then government is yet to issue an official statement on the matter.
