« Pas le droit de salir la Justice » : un animateur de la 7TV risque trois mois de prison
Tried before the Pikine-Guédiawaye Court of flagrant offenses for discrediting the Justice system, spreading false news and undermining the judicial administration, the 7Tv presenter and TikTok influencer, El Hadji Mor Seck, will learn the verdict of his trial on November 14.
On October 30th, according to Les Échos, which attended the hearing, the TV host was taken into custody on the prosecutor's orders following a neighborhood dispute. During his transfer to the prosecutor's office, he filmed a short video from the police vehicle and posted it on TikTok. In the video, he denounced his arrest, implying that his neighbor, an entrepreneur named Abdoulaye Diop, was "powerful and well-connected."
The Public Prosecutor's Office considered this message, broadcast in the midst of the execution of a judicial order, as a serious attack on the credibility of the Justice system.
The incident stems from a neighborhood dispute that occurred on the eve of Tabaski, according to the same source. Mor Seck claimed he had been threatened with death by his neighbor, who denied this, explaining that the radio host had provoked him and filmed him without permission. Witnesses quoted by the newspaper confirmed that it was simply a verbal argument, without violence or threats.
When questioned by investigators, the presenter, who is married and a father of two, admitted to filming and publishing the video, stating that he did so under the influence of fear and emotion, without any intention of discrediting the Justice system.
The prosecutor maintained his position, stating that "no one has the right to tarnish the justice system on social media," and requested a three-month prison sentence. Defense attorney El Hadji Diouf pleaded for leniency, portraying his client as a citizen who "panicked," not a criminal.

Lui a paniqué et a lancé son appel à l'aide en parfaite ignorance. Par contre que faisait le policier?
Un simple sursis servirait de leçon à ceux-là qui seraient tenté de faire ce genre de choses.
