On the 21 November 2012, the accused, Mendomo Cecile gave ammunitions to the co-offender Mbane Simon to poach elephants. He killed an elephant and stripped off its ivory tusks. On returning home, he was arrested by elements of the Wildlife and Forestry control post of Mintom, while looking to sell the ivories and discard the gun. Mendomo Cecile was arrested following Mbane’s arrest, and she admitted to giving a hunting gun and ammunitions to Mbane Simon for hunting which was seized by elements of the forestry and wildlife control post of Mintom upon his arrest. She further confessed keeping Mbane’s hunting gun, which he collects whenever he wants to go hunting. Mbane Simon denied the facts of illegal killing of an elephant and claimed he picked the ivories in the forest and was trying to sell them to get something to eat. After interrogation, the accused persons were transmitted before the State Attorney for prosecution.
