School burglaries in Abobo, Ivory Coast

Overview

Two students, aged 16 and 17, were arrested in Abobo, Ivory Coast, for the alleged burglary of two educational institutions. The thefts, which resulted in losses exceeding 9 million CFA francs, targeted the private college Bocabo & Associés and the Institut Saint-Antoine.

Following an anonymous tip, police from the 21st arrondissement of Abobo intercepted the suspects, known by the aliases ‘Le King’ and ‘Bâtonnet’. Both adolescents reportedly admitted to their involvement. Investigators are currently exploring whether the duo acted as part of a larger group and are working to identify potential accomplices.
