Scandale à Koungheul : la grand-mère encaisse 150 000 F CFA pour étouffer le viol de sa petite-fille de 14 ans
A sordid sex scandal involving a financial arrangement has rocked the town of Koungheul. According to Libération, on June 4th, investigators from the local police station arrested E. Mboup, a 17-year-old student in his final year of middle school, for the rape of a minor, as well as Ndèye Thiam, who is being prosecuted for complicity and failure to report a crime.
The case broke two days earlier, the newspaper reports, when the victim's father went to the police station accompanied by his daughter, B. Pène, a 14-year-old middle school student who had lost her mother. He reported the sexual abuse suffered by the teenager, who usually lived with her maternal grandmother, Ndèye Thiam.
During her hearing, the young victim confirmed the sexual assaults she suffered at the hands of her classmate, but she also revealed an extremely serious detail: her grandmother had negotiated and received money from the suspect's family to cover up the scandal. Arrested at his home in the Diamaguène neighborhood, the alleged rapist admitted to the sexual encounter, claiming it was a romantic relationship. The minor, however, confirmed that as soon as the victim's grandmother learned of the events, she immediately contacted her father, S. Mboup, demanding financial compensation in exchange for her silence.
When questioned by police, the suspect's father implicated the grandmother, explaining that she had initially demanded 600,000 CFA francs before an agreement was finally reached for 150,000 CFA francs. Summoned to appear before investigators, Ndèye Thiam eventually confessed, admitting to the financial transaction. To try and justify herself and avoid the serious charges against her, the grandmother claimed to the police that the money was solely intended for her granddaughter's medical expenses, the same source added.
