Meanwhile, a leading administrator in Cameroonian para-sport has also been suspended while an investigation is carried out into allegations of rape made against him.

Herve Guy Ngoyo Ngong, who has issued a denial, is president of one of several branches of leadership under the control of the Cameroonian Paralympic Committee, which has issued the suspension.

Its president, Jean-Jacques Ndoudoumou, has confirmed to BBC Sport Africa that the suspension will remain in place while police carry out their investigation.

Cameroon has never won a Paralympic medal and has only sent a total of five athletes to the games, beginning in London in 2012.
