A significant ivory trafficker arrested
Cameroon, 29 Sep 2016
A trafficker arrested in with 109 pieces of carved ivory objects during an operation at a very dangerous area which is considered to be the centre of illegal ivory in the country. The trafficker was subject to a long undercover investigation and proved to be smart and suspicious and managed to avoid getting caught in several occasions. This time the team finally managed to outsmart him. The trafficker was violent and resisted arrest while being assisted by friends and accomplices that agitated the violence, but the situation was put under control by the team.
