Scandale à Mbour : le procès pour actes contre nature vire au déballage, des personnalités citées
In early April, investigators from the Saly Portudal research brigade were informed of the existence of a suspected male prostitution ring operating between Dakar and the Petite-Côte. The investigation quickly focused suspicion on B. Thiam, a 20-year-old model living with HIV, who claims to have frequented this milieu since the age of 13, reports L'Observateur.
On the 22nd of this month, the same source continues, the gendarmes arrested him at his home. A search of his residence uncovered several women's accessories, including nightgowns, wigs, underwear, and lubricants. An examination of his mobile phone also revealed compromising videos and led investigators to O. Seck, a 50-year-old employee of the Mbour town hall who was also HIV-positive. Both men were subsequently remanded in custody.
However, it was during the hearing held this Tuesday before the Mbour High Court that the case took an unexpected turn, according to the daily newspaper of the Groupe Futurs Médias (GFM), which attended the trial. In the dock, B. Thiam made a series of explosive revelations, naming several alleged partners whose phone numbers he had previously provided to investigators during his initial questioning. The accused claims to have had relationships with various individuals, including a well-known LGBT rights activist, a Senegalese teacher living in Guinea, and other partners described as local elected officials (including a deputy mayor) and academics.
Given the seriousness of the charges and the suspicions surrounding possible HIV transmission, the prosecutor requested a ten-year prison sentence for O. Seck and a five-year sentence for B. Thiam. The prosecution also requested a judicial inquiry to further investigate the individuals summoned to court and to examine potential cases of corruption of a minor.
After particularly tense debates, the court adjourned the case for deliberation. The verdict is expected on May 19, concludes the Gfm headline.
