Accusé de vol par son voisin à Touba : Un homme de 70 ans se suicide en s’égorgeant
A tragedy of rare violence occurred in the Ndiakhaye neighborhood of Touba. Following an accusation of theft made by a neighbor, EHBD, a 70-year-old man, took his own life by slitting his throat with an electric grinder, according to Seneweb sources.
An accusation of theft experienced as a dishonor
The origin of this tragedy dates back to accusations made by a neighbor named Diagne, who implicated the septuagenarian in a case of sheep theft.
According to his wife, NMN, the man was deeply affected by this accusation. The day before the incident, as she was preparing to visit her ailing mother, her husband had spoken cryptically to her, stating that he "didn't want to spoil her visit."
When questioned about the meaning of this statement, the septuagenarian eventually revealed the accusation leveled against him by Diagne. Throughout the night preceding the tragedy, the 70-year-old man spoke incessantly, expressing intense indignation at what he considered an attack on his honor, according to the widow's account as reported by Seneweb sources.
On September 11, 2026, around 8 a.m., Ms. NMN saw her husband for the last time before leaving for work. During this final exchange, EHBD told her he was going to the neighborhood representative's office to denounce Diagne's accusations.
On the day of the tragedy, between 11 a.m. and 12 p.m., the 70-year-old went to the metalworking workshop of his 24-year-old son, C. D. Under the pretext of having work to do at the family home, he borrowed a grinder.
Around 2 p.m., CD returned home. His 13-year-old sister, NMD, was preparing lunch in the kitchen. She remembers seeing her father walk towards the backyard a little earlier, unaware of what was about to unfold.
The discovery of the scene of the tragedy
Upon learning of his father's presence, CD was directed by his sister to the backyard. There he discovered EHBD's lifeless body, lying in a pool of blood, hanging from a bush. The body had a gaping wound on the neck as well as wounds on the abdomen, with blood spatter visible on the adjacent wall.
Next to the victim was the blood-stained grinding wheel, still connected to an electrical cable running through a bedroom window and plugged into a mains socket.
After unplugging the device and putting it away in a room, CD alerted his sister by shouting, before notifying the authorities.
Police intervention and opening of an investigation
Informed on September 11, 2026 of the discovery of the body, the elements of the district police station of Touba Tawfekh immediately went to the scene after notifying the firefighters.
The body was removed by firefighters and taken to the morgue at the Cheikh Ahmadoul Khadim National Hospital in Touba. A request has been sent to the hospital to conduct the necessary medical examinations and determine the precise cause of death. The judicial investigation opened by the police is ongoing.

Sénégalais dafa niemé toumal domou Adama ta dou Nieppe nioko meun supporter.
Y’a trop de fous ambulants enfermés dans des idéaux débiles
Si les accusations sont infondées, Diagne devrait etre arreté et renvoyé en prison ! On peut tuer une personne en l'attaquant psychologiquement en touchant à son honneur, c'est une forme de meurtre !
J'aimerais bien voir en ce moment la tronche de son accusateur.
Que le Bon Dieu ait pitié de son âme.
Pourquoi aller plus vite que la musique ?
Pourquoi l'ensulter? il a bien raison.. beaucoup de senegalais ont des problemes psychiatriques.. Comment un Homme de 70 ans avec des grandes responsabilites... une fille de 13 ans.. un bon musulman.. si on t'accuse de vol va a la police et demande a l'accusateur des preuves.. Mais demm di reyy sa bop si genrou de bou niaw bi?? lann moko fi diar?? et l'accusateur lui continue de respirer et de vivre.. et dailleurs rien a part si il y a eu des audios et des temois occulaires de ces accusation. POURQUOI se DONNER la mort?? on doit vraiment etre FAIBLE d'esprit..
C’est pas un suicide mais un meurtre avec une main invisible : celle de l’accusateur !
