Monday, September 25 in the town of Mudemba in southwestern Cameroon: a large group of police officers and soldiers force their way into the head office of SEFE (Struggle to Economize the Future Environment), a local NGO, at the crack of dawn. They ransack the rooms and confiscate documents, as well as the laptop, phone, SIM cards, identity card and passport of environmental activist Nasako Besingi.
Besingi was taken away to the local police station. Twenty minutes later, he was loaded into the back of a Gendarmerie pickup truck. According to the human rights organization Front Line Defenders, this was the last time he was seen, and there have been no signs of life from him since.
