Team attache Simon Molombe said he did not expect them to return. "I don't think they will be back," Cameroon's Molombe told CNN Sport, confirming their disappearance had been reported to Australian police.
According to the team statement, the missing athletes are:
    Weight lifter Arcangeline Fouodji Sonkbou

Cameron are very notorious in this for a long time now. Very soon the authority concern will ban them from competing in any  sporting event outside of  Africa. Shame.
