ME ABDOU DIALY KANE : "Notre justice pénale est confrontée à un problème très sérieux"
At the press conference held by Farba Ngom's lawyers, Abdou Dialy Kane denounced shortcomings in Senegal's criminal justice system. He argued that there is no independence between the prosecution and investigation functions.
"This independence is only a fiction. However, in a judicial system, it is absolutely essential that this principle of the independence of the prosecution and investigation functions be clearly established. This is not the case in Senegal, because in truth, the independence of the investigating judge is diluted in the all-powerful prosecution. That is the reality. Very often, the investigating judge does not contradict the prosecution. This is one of the diseases that plagues the criminal justice system in our country," said Mr. Kane.
Second, Farba Ngom's lawyer believes that Senegal's criminal justice system is facing a question of interpreting our procedures and laws. "We see that in some cases, whether intentionally or not, there is a lazy interpretation of certain texts. And this laziness in interpretation is dangerous for citizens' freedoms. This is why it is rare to see reversals in case law in criminal matters," the lawyer confided.
According to him, texts are interpreted as if the judge's word were the word of the Gospel, as if the interpretations that judges make of texts are immutable.
Mr. Abdou Dialy Kane believes that the law must evolve, and that what must make it evolve is the interpretation that judges make of it. "It is absolutely essential that this question of the interpretation of our criminal laws be resolved, and it is the Supreme Court that must play this role," Mr. Kane insists.

Mais la situation économique du Sénégal ne laisse entrevoir aucune perspective heureuse : les notations négatives des agences internationales ont sapé la crédibilité du pays, jusqu’à transformer le forum des investissements en une simple vitrine de mensonges, de promesses creuses et de démagogie orchestrée par Sonko.

Voilà ce que cela donne: un système judiciaire gangrené et aux ordres de Petit Mec.
