Rodrigue Tongue of Le Massager, Felix Ebole Bola of Mutation and Baba Wame a Lecturer in the Advanced School of Mass Communication (ESSTIC) were at the Military Tribunal this 28th October 2014, after being convened by a judge.

The three journalists are accused of detention of sensitive information.

On the first day of their court appearance, the examining judge Aline Mbia Ondoua notified them of the charges against them.

The judge let them go but instructed them not to leave the national territory.

The three will have to present themselves at the military tribunal every Monday before judgement begins in earnest.

The legal troubles of these three journalists began on 24th October 2014, three days after Maitre Harissau (currently in detention) was formerly indicted for a number of accusations including insults to the Head of State and hostility to the Fatherland.

The court maintains that, a sensitive document that originated from Maitre Harrisau was handed to the three journalists between 23rd and 25th July 2014.

The document which is still unknown to the public is considered sensitive enough requiring the media men to have made the information known to competent authorities.
