By Charity Nginyu A thief whose identity is yet to be obtained has been captured and tortured to death by an angry population in Mayor Street, Buea, during a robbery attempt. According to sources, in the early morning of March 21, residents of the said neighborhood were rudely awakened by the presence of thieves prowling their streets. Armed with guns and other weapons, the thieves attempted to rob an inhabitant, under the cover of darkness. However, the vigilance of one observant individual turned the tide against the criminals. Upon spotting the intruders, they wasted no time in alerting the neighborhood, igniting a chorus of whistles that reverberated through the night until every household was alerted to the danger. Faced with the collective reaction of the community, the thieves retreated into hiding. Unfortunately for the assailants, the concerned residents successfully apprehended one of them. They went ahead to take justice into their own hands, as they stripped him of his clothes, torturing him mercilessly. After moments of torture, while the mob was about to set the captured thief on fire, the latter succumbed to the pain, passing away on the spot. Source: Cameroon News Agency
