Criminal Law

Criminal Law in Cameroon is governed by the Penal Code of Cameroon, which defines criminal offenses, prescribes punishments, and outlines procedures for addressing violations of the law. It encompasses acts considered harmful to individuals or society, such as theft, assault, fraud, corruption, and other crimes.
