Thu, 1 Oct 2015 Source: Cameroon Tribune

Clients and workers of a money transfer office near Cimetière, Bonaberi-Douala, are still to catch their breath after three men of the underworld attacked the premises in broad daylight and made away with FCFA 23 million and 2,180 Euros (about FCFA 1,429,986).

Clients said, the incident was like a Hollywood action film except that it was not fiction.

According to police sources, the burglars, dressed in military fatigues, had two automatic pistols and a machine gun. They entered the money transfer office pretending to be clients in the absence of the day watchman and held the people inside at gunpoint.

After collecting the money at about 2:30 pm, they left without a trace. Gendarmes have opened investigations into the matter.
