via SeneNews1 min read
Deputy Thierno Alassane Sall, president of the "République des Valeurs" party and former Minister of Energy, announced he will meet with the National Gendarmerie's Research Section SR on Monday at 4 PM. He will provide new evidence received from Spain, at the request of the investigators. Sall previously testified for several hours in an investigation initiated by a complaint he filed with the Financial Judicial Pool. This development follows his recent revelations regarding the rural electrification contract between ASER and the Spanish company AEE Power EPC. During a press conference, Sall stated he possessed documents from a judicial proceeding in Spain, detailing financial transactions amounting to tens of billions of CFA francs related to the rural electrification project. He believes these documents, obtained from Spanish judicial authorities, will shed new light on the use of funds disbursed for the contract. Sall intends to submit these documents to Senegalese judicial authorities to supplement the ongoing investigation. His visit to the Research Section could mark a new phase in the ASER-AEE Power case, which remains a significant public and political topic in Senegal.
