Actes contre nature : Aliou Ndao réclame l'exclusion de la grâce présidentielle pour les condamnés
The debate surrounding the amendment of Article 319 of the Penal Code, concerning homosexuality, continues to provoke strong reactions. Former prosecutor Aliou Ndao challenged MP Abdou Mbow, urging him not to attack the And Samm Jikko Yi movement, which has been actively campaigning against homosexuality for several years. The opposition MP had spoken on Wednesday during the plenary session of the National Assembly.
According to the former magistrate, the opposition should exercise restraint in this debate, recalling that the regime to which Abdou Mbow belonged had itself, in the past, blocked several cases related to homosexuality. Aliou Ndao also warned against criminalization, which could produce effects contrary to the intended goal.
In his view, classifying these acts as a "crime" could lead to prolonged pretrial detention and cumbersome investigative procedures, thus slowing down the judicial process. He therefore believes that the correctional court remains the most appropriate route for judging these acts, as it allows for faster procedures and more direct decisions.
"Removing the law from the scope of presidential pardon"
The former prosecutor focused particularly on one point he considers crucial: the issue of presidential pardons. According to him, if the legal framework is not rigorously regulated, convicted individuals could benefit from repeated acts of clemency.
"This law must be removed from the scope of presidential pardons, otherwise convicts risk being pardoned every time," he firmly warned.
