Affaire Dane Sarr : 20 mois de prison, le mystère des voitures saisies et les « bizarreries » dénoncées par son avocat
Mahmadane Sarr, known as "Dane Sarr," owner of Lansar Auto, is entering his twentieth month of pretrial detention on charges of forgery and use of forged public documents, as well as fraud involving public funds. While a second request for provisional release has been filed, his lawyer, Moustapha Mbaye, believes the investigation is complete. Interviewed by L'Observateur, he stated, "To my knowledge, all the actions the investigating judge was required to take have already been carried out," denouncing a procedure that is now "at a standstill."
The defense also contests the strength of the accusations and is surprised that Mahmadane Sarr is the only one charged in this case. "What's curious is that someone can be imprisoned using public funds, when he received this money from the Senegalese state, and yet no one else has been charged," the lawyer points out. He also emphasizes that the State Judicial Agent (AJE) did not oppose the new request for provisional release, unlike the Public Prosecutor's Office.
The handling of the seized vehicles also raises questions. Part of Lansar Auto's fleet was seized as part of the proceedings. According to the same source, the defense suspects irregularities in their use or potential transfer and has announced its intention to question the National Office for the Recovery of Criminal Assets (ONRAC) about the legality of these transactions. Meanwhile, the prolonged detention and the cessation of the company's activities have led to layoffs. Attorney Mbaye thus refers to an "economic and social disaster," while, as reported by the daily newspaper of the Future Media Group, the judge's decision on the request for provisional release is expected soon.
