They are not at the end of their sentence. The District Court of Mbour refused yesterday to grant bail to 9 co-accused of Sheikh Béthio Thioune. Thus, Cheikh Faye, Khadim Seck, Mouhameth Sene, Samba Fall, Demba Kebe, Moussa Dièye, Aly Diouf, Mamadou Hann said Pope and Mamadou Gueye will remain in prison as decided by the judge during the special hearing devoted to this request. These defendants who have been in prison since 26 April 2012 because of their alleged involvement in the deaths of Bara Sow and Ababacar Diagne in Medinatou Salam have had a very complicated morning.
This application for provisional release is dismissed on the grounds that 'Apart from Khadim Seck and Mouhameth Seck who are domiciled in Mbao and Dakar respectively, the rest of the band lives Medinatoul Salam. "What makes that for the case of these two first cities, living outside the jurisdiction of Mbour, their requests are inadmissible; the very opposite of the 7 that are admissible ", considers the Tribunal. Fearing a disturbance of the public order that could cause their release and the reaction of the families of the victims who share with them the same places of residence, he decided to keep them in detention.
Despite the hunger strike observed by these accused to protest against their long detention, the Tribunal has not satisfied their requests. All the same, he intends to empty this case as soon as possible, said the judge.
