The young man named Lamine Menso was arrested in Poumpoumre, in the North Region.
Lamine Menso is 30 years old. He had always dreamed of joining the army. A dream that was almost fulfilled. But in 2017, while he was in a BIR training camp, he was dismissed for physical unfitness. A dismissal he did not appreciate. He then decided to continue wearing the uniform, but now on the other side.
With his gangs, the former military student operated in towns such as Garoua, Touboro, Pitoa, Gudigus and Kaele. During his operations, he is said to have worn the uniform of a sergeant and mainly stole motorbikes. Besides this and what led to his arrest is when he started the counterfeit notes business. Thanks to the various denunciations, investigations, he became a “Most Wanted”.
The operation carried out by the Territorial Gendarmerie Brigade led to his arrest. He was found with several national identity cards on him.
