London 2012: Seven Cameroon athletes go missing

YAOUNDE—Seven Cameroon athletes have disappeared while in Britain for the London Olympics, the 

Ministry of Sports and Physical Education said on Monday evening.

The seven—five boxers, a swimmer and a soccer player—are suspected of having left to stay in Europe for economic reasons.

“What began as rumour has finally turned out to be true. Seven Cameroonian athletes who participated at the 2012 London Olympic Games have disappeared from the Olympic Village,” David Ojong, the mission head said in a message sent to the ministry.
