Despite the new appeal brought by the Procureur général du Pool judiciaire financier (Pjf) against his release on conditional release, Lat Diop remains at large. According to the daily newspaper Les Échos, which quotes relatives who came to visit him, the former director general of La Lonase welcomed the news “with a smile”. “I am very honored to be the target of such hatred and passion”, confided Lat Diop, all the while thanking God.

This reaction comes as the Financial Prosecutor’s Office has decided to challenge the decision of conditional release issued in favour of the former boss of La Lonase. French
