TGI Mbour : Quand une affaire de désenvoûtement d’un hôtel atterrit en justice
Deprived of customers for almost seven months, a hotelier tried to save his business through prayers and mystical rituals.
He turned to D. Sarr. After negotiations, they agreed on 500,000 CFA francs for payment of the service.
The agreement resulted in a trial at the Mbour High Court for fraud and quackery.
Appearing before the court for a summary trial, D. Sarr firmly denied the charges against him. He explained that he had been put in contact with the hotel owner by the latter's wife, at a time when the establishment was going through a crisis. According to him, for seven months, the hotel received virtually no guests, to the point that the employees had stopped showing up for work.
The defendant claims to have performed prayers intended to remove a curse from the hotel. He maintains that following these practices, business gradually resumed, with revenues estimated at 1.5 million, then 3 million, before reaching 9.5 million CFA francs. D. Sarr specifies that the sum of 500,000 CFA francs corresponded to an agreed-upon payment, which the hotelier is now refusing to pay him, and which, according to him, is the reason for the complaint filed.
For his part, PK Niang admits to having given money to the defendant, but claims to have seen no results consistent with the promises made to him. Feeling wronged, he has filed a lawsuit for fraud and quackery.
The court ruled that the facts alleged against D. Sarr were not sufficiently established, and the judge therefore acquitted the defendant.
