Bidzongo Mbede Albert, the alleged nephew of Amougou Belinga, has been arrested in connection with Martinez Zogo’s case by the Military Court for fraud and identity theft.

Bidzongo Mbede, on whom an alert was issued some days ago, was allegedly confronted by Martinez Zogo’s bodyguards, who revealed that a few hours before the latter’s kidnapped, Albert had met the victim posing as a Directorate General for External Research’s captain, and also claiming to be the nephew of Amougou Belinga and proposed a settlement.

However, investigations carried out by the gendarmerie debunked these claims. Albert is not a captain in the DGRE, and he has not been recognized by certain key witnesses. Furthermore, it has been determined that he is not the nephew of Jean Pierre Amougou Belinga as he calmed.

During the confrontations, it was disclosed that Albert had contacted the CEO of Vision 4, Amougou Belinga, presenting himself as captain of the DGRE, then as SEMIL. The investigation revealed that he was an impostor, and
Amougou Belinga no longer responded to his calls.

He told the military judge that he used the strategies for survival.

Also, Bidzongo Albert appears to be the name of a deceased person that he used. He had encountered this person during his first stay in prison. His real name is Author Essomba.

The military court then decided to arrest the alleged Bidzongo Albert for attempted fraud, forgery, and identity theft, among others. This complex case continues to reveal surprising twists and turns, shedding light on the ramifications of certain individuals in delicate legal cases.
