“They responded well in the morning in their classroom. During class, the teacher went out to retrieve a document from the Teachers’ room. When he returns, he finds that three students have disappeared. A few minutes later, the principal receives a phone call announcing the sad news. Of the three students who left high school without the knowledge of the supervisors, two died. They are Paul Mouandjo and Marcel Ngomba. The third, Jules Kome, is seriously injured ”, testifies a local source.
