Seven Cameroonian Athlethes "Varnish" From Olympic Village In London

Remember we were once told about the 'disappearance' of Cameroon's women's reserve goalkeeper from the 2012 London Olympics, six more athletes from Cameroon have also 'disappeared' from the olympics, including five boxers and a swimmer.

The seven, including five boxers, are suspected of having decided to stay in Europe for economic reasons, Reuters news agency reports. A reserve goalkeeper for the women's soccer team, Drusille Ngako, was the first to disappear, the agency quoted Cameroon's Olympic mission as saying.

 In June, an Ethiopian torchbearer, Natnael Yemane, 15, also disappeared. He went missing from a hotel in Nottingham.

"What began as rumour has finally turned out to be true," Team Cameroon mission head David Ojong said, in a letter sent to the Cameroonian sports ministry. "Seven Cameroonian athletes who participated at the 2012 London Olympic Games have disappeared from the Olympic Village." Ngako was the first to disappear while her teammates left for Coventry for their last preparatory encounter against New Zealand, he said.
