On October 8, 2013, I was trying to go back home by taxi. But I had to change taxi and walk for 30meter to get next taxi. It was little dark 7pm. At the time, I was sorrounded by 3 or 4 men. A man choked me and another guy tore off my small bag, and they ran away. There were a camera, passport, watch, wallet with 300 rand and credit card, cellphone, USB Internet modem and so on. I explained to taxi driver and he helped me to bring home without pay. And my house owner helped me to go to police station and explained everything.
