​Zac Mbao: the actor El Hadji Moda Thioune also known as “Khalil Thiam” placé sous mandat de dépôt 

  El Hadj Moda Thioune, better known by his stage name Khalil Thiam, the star of the Senegalese hit series “Baabel”, was placed under mandat de dépôt on Monday 11 August 2025. He is being prosecuted for “delit de fuite, refus d’obtempérer et mise en danger de la vie d’autrui” following an incident that occurred last Sunday in the suburb of Dakar. The case goes back to Sunday, August 10th, around 11 o’clock at the Brioche Dorée de la ZAC Mbao. According to the newspaper L’Observateur, the actor initially appeared to cooperate when a police officer stopped him, immobilizing his vehicle. However, when the agent approached to verify his papers, Khalil Thiam was brutally taken prisoner. A course-pursuit is then engaged. In fact, the agent immediately launched the pursuit while alerting his colleagues posted at the Sipres Rond-point.
