A serious case has emerged in Touba following a complaint filed on April 11, 2026, at the Ndamatou police station. A woman has accused a returning emigrant of raping her 16-year-old niece. The young girl had been working as a domestic helper for nearly four months at the home of the suspect's wife, A. Diokhane. According to reports, the victim arrived at her aunt's home on April 10 in a state of shock, claiming to have been assaulted by her employer's husband. Informed of the situation, the employer accompanied the young girl to the hospital, where a medical examination confirmed her statements.

Young Senegalese forward Ibrahim Mbaye is experiencing a challenging period at Paris Saint-Germain, as he was not called up for the match against Olympique Lyonnais. This follows similar exclusions from recent games against Toulouse FC and Liverpool FC, raising questions about his current role within the team. Mbaye, who requires playing time for his development, has seen reduced opportunities since returning from the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco. This progressive sidelining is a significant setback for the player, both athletically and mentally, as he seeks consistency in his career. While coach Luis Enrique's decisions prioritize team balance and immediate performance in a competitive squad like PSG's, Mbaye's repeated absence prompts discussion about the club's management of young talent. Some observers suggest more regular playing time would aid his emergence, while others believe this period could help him strengthen and return more resilient.
