The Court of First Instance of Bonanjo was once again packed on Friday, July 10, 2026. The hearing on Jacques Bertrand Mang's application for bail attracted the usual crowd of onlookers, relatives, and supporters, who turned out in large numbers despite the morning heat in Douala.
The defense team featured several prominent lawyers, including Me Alice Nkom, the highly respected dean of the Cameroonian Bar, Me Michael Khumbah Asong, known for his candidacy in the 2025 presidential election, Me Augustin Nguefack, and several other counsel representing the activist. Since their client's arrest, the legal team has left no stone unturned in his defense.
After hearing the prosecution's submissions and the defense's arguments, the judge decided not to issue an immediate ruling, opting instead to take more time to consider the matter. The court has therefore scheduled its decision for July 17. Until then, Jacques Bertrand Mang will remain at New Bell Central Prison, where he has already spent several days.
It is important to note that the July 17 decision concerns only his request for provisional release on bail. The trial on the merits of the case will follow its own schedule once this stage has been concluded.
As with every hearing in this closely watched case, our newsroom remains on the ground to report the facts as they unfold, while fully respecting the presumption of innocence.

Cameroonians living in Sweden are appealing for urgent intervention after months of delays and unexplained rejections of passport applications submitted during a special consular mission organized by the Cameroon High Commission in the United Kingdom.
According to members of the Cameroonian community in Gothenburg, the mission was held at the request of Cameroonians residing in Sweden and neighboring Denmark.
The exercise, coordinated by the Cameroonian Association in Gothenburg, enabled applicants to process passports, birth certificates and other consular documents without travelling to the UK.
Community representatives say the enrollment process was completed successfully.
However, many applicants later received notifications that their passport applications had been rejected and were advised to contact the enrollment centre in the United Kingdom.
They say officials at the enrollment centre informed them they had no explanation for the rejections, adding that they had contacted Cameroon's General Delegation for National Security (DGSN) to seek clarification. More than a month later, applicants say no official response or solution has been communicated.

Renowned Cameroonian political commentator Tanyi Charles Mambo has urged Cameroonians to move beyond rumours and emotions over President Paul Biya’s health and absence from the country, and instead focus on the bigger question of Cameroon’s future after him.
Mambo said President Biya should be treated with dignity as an elder and as Head of State, adding that Cameroonians should not wish death on anyone. However, he insisted that respect for the President must not stop citizens from asking serious questions about transparency, succession and national preparedness.
“President Biya deserves dignity as an elder and as Head of State. But Cameroon also deserves honesty, transparency, and serious preparation for the future,” he wrote.
According to Mambo, the key issue is no longer whether Biya is in Yaoundé or Geneva, but whether Cameroon’s institutions are strong enough to manage a peaceful transition after a leader who has ruled since 1982.
He argued that Cameroon’s political system has been built heavily around one man, with ministers, state institutions, public resources and political loyalty deeply tied to the ruling system.
“When a minister behaves more like a party campaigner than a neutral public servant, we should not pretend to be shocked,” Mambo said.
He warned that simply replacing one leader will not automatically change the country if the same institutions, weak constitution, centralised power and loyalty-based governance remain in place.
Mambo called for a serious national conversation on succession, constitutional reform, national unity, the Anglophone crisis, the role of the army, democratic renewal and peaceful transition.
He also questioned whether there is a united political force capable of mobilising Cameroonians across language, region, tribe, religion and generation to offer a credible alternative.
“The Cameroon problem is bigger than one President, bigger than one Party and bigger than any one individual,” he said. #MMINews #CharlesMambo #Biya
