My Father, My Monster - The Case of Pascal Tsala Bina

In this episode, we investigate one of the most harrowing and deeply controversial criminal cases to surface in Cameroon: the trial of Pascal Tsala Bina. To the outside world, Tsala Bina was an elite, well-connected senior official at the Hydrocarbon Price Stabilization Fund (CSPH) in Yaoundé. But behind closed doors, he subjected his own 10-year-old daughter to severe, systematic sexual abuse and torment under his roof.What began as a horrific domestic tragedy quickly transformed into a explosive crisis of judicial corruption. Despite overwhelming physical evidence and initial confessions, a controversial lower court ruling by Magistrate Marguerite Aminatou suddenly released Tsala Bina as a free man, triggering absolute public outrage across the nation. It was only after the brave child went live on national television, coupled with relentless digital activism, that the Ministry of Justice was forced to step in.This is a dark but vital exploration into power, privilege, and the collective societal roar that refused to let a predator walk free.
