The Judicial Financial Pool (PJF) has posted impressive figures since its establishment: 91 cases already processed, 87 transmitted to investigating judges, 162 arrests made, and more than 2.5 billion CFA francs seized from bank accounts, in addition to the confiscation of several vehicles.
According to El Hadj Aliou Abdoulah Sylla, prosecutor of the Financial Prosecutor’s Office, the PJF is a key tool for strengthening the rule of law. It marks a turning point in the fight against serious economic and financial crime, in addition to existing instruments.
The PJF is based on a team of specialized magistrates, supported by experts from various fields such as finance, banking, IT and public procurement.
-The prosecutor also specified that the PJF is working on denunciations which have already given rise to concrete actions. “We have received files from Ofnac, as well as recent reports from Centif. Our mission is guided by a logic of transparency so that the public is informed, while respecting the principles of presumption of innocence and the rights of the defense,” he declared.
