As a littoral State with a long coastlines and a huge interest in the Atlantic ocean Cameroon has the responsibility to dispense justice with regard to matters pertaining to the waters under her control. Ship arrest within the waters of Cameroon is done in compliance with the procedure put in place by the CEMAC Marine Merchant Code 2012 and the 1999 Arrest Convention.
These texts form part and parcel of Cameroons"™ legislation. Courts charged with the responsibility of ship arrest in Cameroon are the Court of First Instance and the High Court. Ship arrest in Cameroon is actually effected by a competent maritime authority following the order of a competent court. The arrest can either on the basis of saise conservatoire or saise vente. The courts often strive to protect the rights of third parties when a ship is arrested. This paper has as objective to examine the mechanisms for the arrest of a vessel within the maritime waters of Cameroon as provided by the maritime texts in force.
