Le Parquet du Pool judiciaire financier de Dakar, alerted by the CENTIF reports, has opened a judicial inquiry into money laundering practices involving shell companies. The case, valued at more than 125 billion FCFA, involved several individuals, including MP Farba Ngom and a businessman. However, the latter has no connection with the case: “I have never been summoned or heard by this jurisdiction”, he declared via Source A. The financial prosecutor, El Hadji Alioune Abdoulaye Sylla, announced on Sunday 12 January 2025 the opening of a judicial investigation based on Article 66 of the law n° 2024-08 on the fight against money laundering. This inquiry is directed against serious offences such as association of criminals, fraud against public funds, corruption and influence peddling. Investigations continue to unravel the responsibilities and ramifications of this complex network.
