Baltasar Engonga, the Director General of the National Financial Investigation Agency in Equatorial Guinea, has been arrested for allegedly recording over 400 sex tapes involving the wives of notable individuals in the country.
The scandal came to light during a fraud investigation against the 54-year-old economist. ANIF officials conducted an impromptu search of his house and office, discovering several CDs that revealed his sexual encounters with various married women.

The footage, found in his office, was said to have been recorded with consent and has since been leaked online, causing a media uproar.
According to a report by local media platform Ahora EG, Engonga has been embroiled in a sexual scandal unprecedented in the history of Equatorial Guinea since last October.

Known as “Bello,” the former ANIF DG had sexual relations with several women, some of whom were married, and filmed these intimate encounters. The report noted, “The most striking thing is that some scenes took place in his work office, including moments where he is seen with a woman next to the National Flag.”
In response to the scandal, the Executive has stated that the measures taken are a direct response to actions that have tarnished the country’s image.
