Yaounde, Muharram 23, 1438, October 24, 2016, SPA -- Eighty people have been confirmed dead and more than 600 others injured, three days after the derailment of a passenger train in Cameroon, the transport minister said Monday, according to dpa. "We expect the toll to rise [even further]," Edgar Alain Mebe Ngo'o said, as the West African nation was in national mourning due to Friday's accident. "There may still be corpses hidden in the rubble, and we have critical cases in hospital," the minister added. President Paul Biya on Saturday put the death toll at more than 70. The train, which had about 20 carriages, started developing problems near the town of Eseka, which is 120 kilometres from the capital, Yaounde, with coaches gradually detaching themselves. --SPA 12:50 LOCAL TIME 09:50 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
