Cheikh Thioro au procureur Saliou Dicko : « Que personne ne soit épargné s’il est impliqué dans cette affaire d’homosexualité »
MP Cheikh Thioro Mbacké expressed his strong support for Prosecutor Saliou Dicko. The parliamentarian stated that he must be "protected and encouraged" in the performance of his duties.
According to him, Senegal must rely on a justice system that aligns with its values and principles. The marabout then referred to the case of Pape Cheikh Diallo and others.
Taking a stance on the recent legal actions against alleged homosexuals, the MP believes the magistrate is acting strictly within the bounds of his responsibilities. "Our country needs a justice system that reflects our values. This prosecutor has done his job and should be encouraged to see his case through to the end," he stated.
In his speech, Cheikh Thioro Mbacke also addressed the issue of homosexuality, a topic he considers sensitive from a societal perspective. He maintains that this issue was "managed by the outgoing regime" and recalls that his political camp opposed it when it was in opposition. He asserts that a promise had been made to combat this phenomenon once in power.
The MP also called for the continuation of the ongoing legal proceedings. He stressed the need to apply the law rigorously and without discrimination. "The hunt must continue, and all those involved, regardless of their affiliation, must be arrested and brought to justice," he insisted, advocating for fair and impartial justice.
Beyond legal action, the parliamentarian stressed the urgent need for a legislative response. He urged the National Assembly to pass a law criminalizing homosexuality as soon as possible in order, he said, to fulfill the commitments made to the Senegalese people and to further clarify the legal framework on this issue.
Furthermore, Cheikh Thioro Mbacké highlighted the need, in his view, for consistency between political commitments, judicial action and legislative initiative, in a context where societal debates continue to provoke strong reactions within public opinion.
