Supplice d’un policier : l’ancien lutteur «Akon» risque 15 ans de prison

After eight years on the run, the gang of Thierno Seydou Gaye, alias "Akon," appeared before the criminal division of the Pikine-Guédiawaye court. According to L'Observateur, which covered the hearing, they are being prosecuted for criminal conspiracy, robbery by group using a means of transport, rebellion, assault and battery on an officer, and possession of Indian hemp. The verdict is expected on October 7.

The daily newspaper of the Future Media Group, replaying the film of their arrest, retraces an eventful hunt.

March 13, 2021: During a security operation in Pikine, police attempted to intercept a suspicious Peugeot 307. A chase ensued. Two passengers were arrested, while the others fled.

During the intervention, two police officers were injured, including officer Mamadou Ka, who suffered a broken arm and was stripped of his service weapon.

March 14, 2021: The police officer recognizes Mamadou Seydou Diallo at the hospital, who came to be treated for an injury.

May 6, 2021: “Akon,” a former wrestler known for his violent history, is finally arrested in Guédiawaye with an accomplice.

In court, the injured police officer gave poignant testimony: he claimed to have been dragged by the vehicle, hit on the arm and disarmed by the accused.

The prosecutor described the events as "extremely serious," citing a well-structured organization and the mortal risk faced by law enforcement. He requested 15 years of imprisonment for each of the accused.

    Attention.
    Le seul lutteur surnommé Akon est mort il y a quelques années. Un gars pieux, cool.
