Nguekhokh : mort mystérieuse d’un ancien policier retrouvé pendu
The commune of Nguékhokh is in shock after the gruesome discovery of the body of Mbaye Sy (a septuagenarian, former police officer turned real estate agent), found hanged in his bedroom by his first wife after dawn prayers.
The circumstances of the death are considered disturbing and raise serious questions, reports L'Observateur in its edition of Tuesday, October 7.
It was Mbaye Sy's first wife who made the gruesome discovery around 8 a.m. Her husband's body was leaning against the wall, his neck wrapped in a piece of cloth whose ends were tied to the window bars.
Several relatives and witnesses strongly doubt the suicide theory. They cannot understand how a man of his large build could have ended his life with a simple piece of "lightly" tied fabric. The position of the body—standing, back to the wall, with the ends of the fabric tied to the outside window grille—suggests a possible disguised murder, the daily newspaper of the Future Media Group suggests.
Although no signs of a struggle were found in the room, neighbors recall that the former police officer had recently been the victim of an armed burglary with an estimated theft of around 3 million CFA francs.
An investigation has been opened and an autopsy has been ordered to determine the exact circumstances of his death. Mbaye Sy leaves behind two widows and an only daughter, L'Observateur added.
