There has been intensified insecurity in the crisis regions of the Northwest and Southwest of Cameroon as security mount hunt for suspected supporters of separatist fighters.
Human rights report say many Cameroon Anglophone youths who were involved in the crisis either directly as separatists fighters or supporters have fled from their different abode for safety as they have become prime targets by security forces in the wake of the ongoing Anglophone Crisis in the Northwest and Southwest of Cameroon.
This crackdown reflects escalating tensions between government security forces and Anglophones fighting for Ambazonia liberation, a prominent organization within the Anglophone movements advocating for self-determination.
Hunt for suspected supporters of SEPARATISTS FIGHTERS

Eye witness in Douala say one of them, Louis Marie Youmbi who has severally been arrested and detained is now on the run.
