Escroquerie portant sur plus de 650 millions F CFA : un économiste ivoirien arrêté par la DIC
KP Blédou, an Ivorian economist living in Almadies in Dakar, was detained in Rebeuss for having defrauded his compatriot, the healer KAR Ano, of more than 600 million CFA francs.
According to L'Observateur, it all started with a relationship of trust established between the two men in 2020, after Blédou consulted Ano for prayers related to his health problems. Taking advantage of this proximity, Blédou presented a fictitious wastewater treatment project and solicited financial support from his benefactor and his network, raising funds through Western Union, Money Gram, and other means.
Between December 2020 and May 2025, according to the daily newspaper of the Future Media Group, Blédou received a total of 655 million, promising opportunities and foreign investors to lend credibility to his project. However, the Akar Group company, presented as the project's sponsor, turned out to be based on a fake Ninea and its bank accounts were empty, the same source claims.
Suspected of fraud, Blédou was arrested while attempting to leave Senegal for Gambia. Faced with investigators, he admitted to using the funds for personal gain and presenting falsified documents to deceive Ano.
The search of his luxury apartment in Almadies resulted in the seizure of numerous falsified documents and evidence of his scheme, adds L'Observateur.
