17 mois de prison sans audition : le Forum du justiciable s'insurge pour Daha Diallo !
President Babacar Bâ denounces a situation he considers worrying in light of fundamental legal principles. According to him, this Treasury controller has been held in pretrial detention for 17 months based on a preliminary report from the General Inspectorate of Finance (IGF), without his defense having been heard.
The Forum of the Justiciable reiterates that pre-trial detention must remain an exceptional measure, strictly regulated and limited in time. "It must not become an early punishment," the organization emphasizes, adding that the case of Daha Diallo constitutes a violation of the presumption of innocence and the rights of the defense.
Questioning the reasons for this situation, the organization suggests various possibilities, including judicial delays, negligence, or the effects of an overburdened system. It deplores the fact that a citizen can be held in detention for such a long period without being heard on the merits of their case.
Beyond the individual case of Daha Diallo, the Forum of the Justiciable believes that this situation illustrates a broader problem related to prolonged pretrial detention in Senegal. This reality, according to the organization, undermines citizens' trust in the judicial system and raises questions about the respect for reasonable trial timeframes.
In light of this situation, the Forum of the Justiciable calls for the immediate hearing of Daha Diallo so that he can present his defense. It also advocates for a reform, or at the very least, a more rigorous application of the rules governing pretrial detention.
For the organization, it is urgent to act in order to preserve the dignity of those seeking justice and to guarantee respect for the rule of law.
