Cameroon’s Instructor’s Manual (2006) states with regard to women prisoners of war:
Women must be detained in locations separate from men and guarded by women …
Pregnant women and mothers of young children dependent on them must be released as quickly as possible. Prisoners of war must not receive a more serious sentence or, while they serve a sentence, they must not be treated more severely than women or men who are members of the armed forces of the Detaining Power and who are being punished for a similar offence.
