“Separatist leaders should issue clear instructions to their fighters to end their crimes against civilians.”
A man is seen at the voting booth during the general and municipal elections in Yaounde on February 9, 2020.
“Separatist leaders should issue clear instructions to their fighters to end their crimes against civilians,” HRW’s Central Africa director, Lewis Mudge, said in a statement. Years of grievances at perceived discrimination by the francophone majority snowballed into a declaration of independence in October 2017, to which the government responded with a crackdown.
HRW said armed separatists attacked people wishing to take part in the election, either as voters, campaigners, civil servants or candidates.
