On March 19, 2026, Cameroon's Supreme Court annulled the life sentences of Sisiku Ayuk Tabe and nine other Anglophone separatist leaders, citing procedural flaws in the original trial. The court ordered a retrial at the Appeal Court with a newly constituted panel of judges. This decision is seen as a step towards ensuring a fair hearing and addressing concerns over the judicial process in the high-profile case.
