It is now learned that the lamas had nothing to do whatever with the murder of Promotion-Constable R304 Lam Chung Pera Nussbaum. Some Catholic mow luns been promoted to the rank of Lance Sergeant, as from December 1. Sisters were travelling with the Pere and they were allowed to return in peace. It seems that the robbers were waiting for Nussbaum; robbery and murder, appears to have been their intention.
