Bagarre entre étudiants « Kékendo » et « Ndéfleng » à l’UCAD : le présumé meurtrier d’Ismaïla Diémé arrêté par la SU après 5 ans de cavale
Wanted for over five years, the main suspect in the 2021 murder of student Ismaïla Gaoussou Dieme at the Cheikh Anta Diop University campus in Dakar has been apprehended at the Gambian border. According to exclusive information obtained by Seneweb, the Dakar Central Police Station's urban security unit brought his flight to an end.
The events date back to March 25, 2021. On that day, an altercation broke out in front of Pavilion E of the UCAD Social Campus between the student movement "Kékendo," whose members are from Casamance, and "Ndéfleng," a Serer cultural movement. During this pitched battle, student Ismaïla Gaoussou Dieme was injured with a machete. Taken to Dakar's Principal Hospital, he succumbed to his injuries shortly afterward.
Having been assigned the case on the instructions of their superiors, the Dakar police department interviewed Mr. Dieme, the victim's brother. He explained that information gathered on campus pointed to a man named Sarr, a member of the "Ndéfleng" movement, as the perpetrator of the fatal injuries. He stated that he had filed a complaint with the Point-E police station and submitted a file containing the death certificate, the medical report, the death notice, and the burial certificate. These documents allowed for the formal identification of the victim: Ismaila Gaoussou Dieme.
When questioned in turn, witnesses IK SANE, A. NDIAYE, and A. BASSENE all confirmed that A. SARR, a member of the "Ndéfleng" movement and in possession of a machete, was responsible for the injuries that caused the death of student DIEME. Witness A. NDIAYE stated that he saw A. SARR holding a sword, which he allegedly used to wound the victim during the altercation. The witnesses also emphasized that other people present that day could corroborate their statements.
After committing the crime, A. SARR, a resident of the Grand Yoff housing project, managed to leave Senegal and seek refuge in The Gambia. The Point-E district police station then issued a travel ban against him. The case was subsequently transferred from the Point-E police station to the urban security division of the central police station in Dakar.
After a long stay abroad, and presumably believing his case had been closed, the man, now 30 years old, returned to Senegal by bypassing the border checkpoint. But on August 16, while attempting to cross back into The Gambia without using the same checkpoint, he was apprehended by the border police at the Karang border crossing and transferred to the urban security unit. His time on the run thus lasted just over five years.
When questioned briefly about the events, A. SARR admitted to taking part in the pitched battle, but categorically denied possessing the machete that injured Ismaila Gaoussou DIEME. He claimed to have left the country when the incident came to light, as he had been identified as the one who inflicted the injuries.
At the end of the investigation carried out by the urban security, proceedings were opened against A. SARR, who was presented this Friday to the public prosecutor at the high court of Dakar.
