A Cameroonian passenger was intercepted at SSR airport by officers of the Customs Anti-Narcotics Section with false currency and four false paseports. The suspect could have a local accomplice.

In the suspect's suitcase, all the equipment for making counterfeit notes, among others, was stored. In all, 409 sheets of paper – printouts of the dollar note and the €500 note – fixing salt, a bottle of alcohol at more than 70 degrees, a bottle of glue, a fake US passport and three fake international passports were found. The whole thing was hidden in a pocket of a normal suitcase. This 39-year-old Cameroonian was going to leave his suitcases in a villa in Baie-du-Tombeau. He introduced himself as an investment consultant and flew from Madagascar to Mauritius on flight MK289.
