via SeneNews1 min read
Liverpool is reportedly considering Everton FC's Senegalese forward Iliman Ndiaye as a potential solution to bolster their attack. This comes after French striker Hugo Ekitiké sustained a severe Achilles tendon injury, which will sideline him for an extended period. Ndiaye is valued for his mobility, creativity, and ability to perform in tight spaces, offering a versatile option across the front line. Acquiring a player from Everton is noted as a delicate operation, but Liverpool's urgent need to maintain offensive balance next season could prompt them to pursue the transfer.

Must ReadMasseck Sarr, arrested last Wednesday by the Saint-Louis Research Brigade, has had his police custody extended and is expected to appear before the Saint-Louis prosecutor's office this Monday. The extension is linked to the ongoing investigation, particularly the analysis of his mobile phone. Sarr was initially detained for statements made during an online live broadcast, which were deemed serious and targeted Serigne Touba, the founder of Mouridism. He faces charges including public insults against a group of people based on their religious beliefs, contempt of a religious ministry, and threats of assault and death. Further investigations, including the examination of his phone, reportedly uncovered audio recordings considered even more serious than the initial statements that led to his arrest.

The Indictment Chamber of the Dakar Court of Appeal has confirmed the dismissal of charges against several individuals involved in the Covid funds case. This decision rejects the public prosecutor's appeal, aligning with the investigating judge's initial ruling. Moustapha Ndiaye, Ryan Hachem, Mouhamed Dieng, and Aliou Sow, who were accused of complicity in the embezzlement of public funds and forgery, have benefited from this confirmation. The public prosecutor had sought to refer them to a trial court, but this attempt was unsuccessful. This ruling effectively ends the prosecution against these individuals at this stage. The decision also indirectly affects Mansour Faye, who was implicated as the alleged principal perpetrator. Currently on provisional release, the framework of the prosecution against him evolves given that the accusations against his alleged accomplices have not been upheld by the appellate court. The Covid funds case concerns the management of resources mobilized during the pandemic and has garnered significant public and judicial attention, involving suspicions of embezzlement and documentary irregularities. This decision by the Dakar Court of Appeal marks a significant step, confirming the investigating judge's stance on the insufficient evidence against the individuals concerned, while leaving open potential future developments for other parties in the case.
