From the light of social networks to the darkness of a superheated cell, the fall of Elhadj Babacar Dioum, aka Kocc Barma, is as brutal as it is shocking. He who had forged a sulphurous reputation on the Internet, through the diffusion of sexual content and the practice of digital blackmail, now lives a completely different reality behind the walls of the prison of Rebeuss. According to concordant prison sources cited by Dakarposte, à peine écroué, the man was assigned to the 1st chamber of the Dakar prison establishment. A cell known for housing elderly detainees, far from the golden detention conditions to which Kocc Barma seemed accustomed. Fini les chambres climatisées, les écrans tactiles et les fauteuils confortables: the cell where he is staying is described as overloaded, unhealthy and subjected to a suffocating heat, aggravated by the narrowness of the premises and the lack of ventilation. The symbolism is strong. He who for years presented himself as an untouchable of the web, shattering lives with intimate videos stolen or disseminated without consent, finds himself today deprived of freedom, in a closed space, far from the light of projectors and networks. His incarceration follows a series of in-depth investigations conducted by the specialized services, after recurrent complaints from anonymous and public figures who were victims of his actions.
