Court Postpones Amougou Belinga's Bail Hearing to July 16

The Court of Appeal in Yaoundéhas postponed the bail hearing for businessman Amougou Belinga to July 16, 2026, due to the absence of a military assessor judge required for the session. This delay extends the legal proceedings surrounding Belinga, who has been detained since early 2023 in connection with the assassination of journalist Martinez Zogo. Belinga maintains his innocence, denying any involvement in the journalist's abduction and murder. The main trial continues at the military tribunal, focusing on analyzing telephone data and communications among key suspects.
