Pout : sa femme atteinte de troubles mentaux, il met enceinte sa nièce de 13 ans venue s'occuper de ses enfants
S. Yade, a 47-year-old mason, appeared before the criminal court of the Thiès High Court on Monday, March 9, on charges of alleged rape and pedophilia. He is accused of having had sexual relations on several occasions with his 13-year-old niece, B. Guèye, who became pregnant. The alleged incidents took place in 2023 in Pout.
According to the evidence in the case, the young girl had been sent to live at the defendant's home to help take care of her aunt's children, who was suffering from mental disorders following the birth of her fifth child, and who was forced to return to her native village, to her parents.
It was in these circumstances that the accused allegedly abused the minor. The case came to light after the victim's pregnancy was discovered. When questioned about the perpetrator's identity, the young girl identified her uncle, S. Yade, whom she accuses of repeated rapes. During the preliminary investigation, she stated that the accused raped her three times in her bedroom. She maintained that she did not consent but could not refuse for fear of being beaten by her rapist.
In court, S. Yade denied the rape charges, while admitting to having had sexual relations with the minor. According to him, the acts took place with the girl's consent.
"On the night of the events, I woke up to urinate. Seeing her in bed, the idea of having a sexual relationship with her came to me. I woke her up to make the proposition and she accepted. We had sexual relations three times," the defendant stated.
The public prosecutor argued that the victim could not, under any circumstances, be considered to have consented, given that she was a minor and under the defendant's authority. Considering the acts of rape and pedophilia proven, the prosecution requested a sentence of 10 years' imprisonment.
The verdict is scheduled for April 13, 2026.
