Cameroon's military says it has arrested four of its troops for the killing of nine civilians, including four women and a baby. Tamfu Richard is a human rights lawyer and member of the Cameroon Bar Council. He notes it is not the first time the military has arrested troops for atrocities and that victims are still waiting for justice. It is not permitted during war periods that human rights be violated or that you should kill innocent civilians." Rights groups have accused both Cameroon's military and anglophone separatists of killing civilians and torching their homes during the five-year conflict.
