One of the two former government ministers arrested on Monday took ill today and was rushed to the hospital. Hospital sources say, Polycarp Abah Abah, former Minister of finance had a malaise.
The two Ministers and almost a dozen of their collaborators are still at the Police Head quarters as preliminary investigations continue.
Two days into these investigations, sources say Polycarp Abah Abah is being questioned on irregularities noticed in the management of the Value Added Tax, during his term as Director of Taxes (he was Director of Taxes before appointed Minister).
Urbain Olanguena Awono is being linked to apparent mismanagement of funds allocated to the National AIDS Control Committee and the National Roll Back Malaria committee, two bodies that benefit from huge funds from government and Cameroon�s development partners.
The coordinators of these two committees are among officials that are currently being detained.
Meanwhile, Polycarp Abah Abah was led to his luxurious Odza home yesterday to be present as investigators execute a search warrant intended to seek for more evidence.
The former Pay Master General, Luc Etogo Mbezele, who was arrested alongside his former boss was later released for health reasons, his wife was ordered to represent him, whenever he shall be convened.
