Condamnée : une mère de famille recyclait des cubes de bouillon jetés à Mbeubeuss pour les revendre

A. Gning, a 26-year-old divorced mother of three, was sentenced to three months in prison for endangering the lives of others. A resident of Malika, she collected bouillon cubes discarded at the Mbeubeuss dump, repackaged them, and resold them as new.

Discovered by the police on August 1 with sachets of broth, some still wrapped, others reduced to powder and ready to be repackaged, the accused explained that he had started this activity due to a lack of resources, ignoring the health risks.

"I didn't know these broths were unfit for human consumption," she swore, even claiming to have used them to prepare meals for her children, aged 2, 5 and 7.

According to L'Observateur, which attended the hearing, the prosecutor gave him no room for maneuver, insisting: "You chose the easy way out, with disregard for public health."

The prosecutor recalled that these products, intended for destruction, represented a major risk for the population.

The defendant's lawyer pleaded for leniency, emphasizing his client's predicament: "Society is merciless with these women left to fend for themselves. A firm sentence would also be a punishment for her children."

The court ultimately dismissed the charge of unauthorized manufacturing, but upheld the charge of endangering the lives of others against the mother.

    Et celui qui a jeté ces cubes dans un environnement financièrement indigent sans les détruire totalement alors qu'ilen a les moyens ?
    Enfin, qu'ont-ils ces procureurs à vouloir systématiquement faire condamner sans aucune analyse des faits ?
    Leurs promotions dépendent-elles du nombre de condamnations obtenues ?

    Ah moi que ce soit brosse à dens, rasoir et autres je casse tout en mille morceaux avant de le mettre à la poubelle. Cela évite qu'ils les recycle pour les revendre. Ils sont capables de tout. Attention aux maladies qui peuvent se transmettre par ces voies.
