The National Gendarmerie in Malabo, Equatorial Guinea, has received an official complaint from Cristel Nchama, one of the women who was allegedly shown in pornographic films involving Baltasar Engonga.

Following the discovery of nearly 400 explicit films during a fraud probe, Engonga, the former director-general of the National Financial probe Agency (ANIF), has found himself in the center of a scandal.

The video purports to show Engonga with multiple women, and among them are prominent people like his brother's wife, his cousin, the president of Equatorial Guinea's sister, the police director-general's wife, and the spouses of multiple ministries. These recordings, which were allegedly shot with the participants' permission, were shot in a variety of locations, such as hotels, Engonga's workplace, and even bathrooms.

Cristel complained that the stolen tapes deeply embarrassed her, revealing that she had been in a four-year relationship with Engonga. She said that although she had first refused to be videotaped, Engonga had promised to remove any recordings, and she accused him of betraying her trust. "I feel ashamed. My honor and reputation are impacted by this. Cristel demanded payment from Engonga for the harm done to her dignity and reputation, saying, "I want to know where these images came from and why he kept them."



Engonga was fired from his job on Thursday as part of the government's prompt response to the issue. Officials from different ministries who were discovered to have engaged in comparable misbehavior were also suspended.
