Menaces avec un couteau, insultes… : Cheikh Ndiaye jugé et…
In a previous edition, Libération, reporting on the trial of Cheikh Ndiaye, tried by the Pikine/Guédiawaye court for inciting a crime or offense, glorifying a crime or offense, and disseminating electronic content contrary to public morals, had announced the verdict for Monday, January 5. In its edition this morning, the day of the trial, the newspaper corrects itself: the defendant already knows his fate; he has been sentenced to one month in prison.
The daily newspaper recalls that the prosecutor had requested a one-year prison sentence and a fine of 200,000 CFA francs.
Cheikh Ndiaye was arrested for threats and insults made on social media. These appeared to be directed against foreigners, particularly nationals of a neighboring country.
In the videos in question, the accused appeared holding a knife. He told investigators that the videos were three months old and were directed at people who had been sending him death threats.
Unable to provide proof of his claims, according to Libération, he was forced to offer profuse apologies, admitting that his remarks had been excessive. This defense did not save him from a prison sentence.
