My Cheikh Khouressy Ba was an avocat. A brilliant lawyer! Certain lawyers are distinguished by their competence, their determination and their commitment to justice. In addition to having all these qualities, Me Cheikh Khouressy Ba belonged to the ranks of those lawyers who have devoted their lives to the defense of people wrongfully accused, with an exceptional ability to highlight the weaknesses of the judicial system and to work tirelessly to ensure fair trials. Naturally, this émérite avocat was respected and admired in the juridical milieu because of his ability to defend all the unjustly accused persons, enjoying a well-established reputation with the judges. I remember my audition in the second cabinet of Mamadou Seck, the executioner of the old regime.
