The group at the height of the forged Treasury checks and undeclared imports scandal has been identified by the Criminal Investigation Division. It is a civil servant named Mr. Kane who is singled out.
The so-called mafia affair of falsified Treasury checks and undeclared imports has not yet revealed all its secrets. The Criminal Investigation Division (DIC) made three new arrests.
As part of the investigation opened following the general payer’s complaint, three people were arrested and interviewed. This is the manager of “ Touba Transit » Mallé Seck, a lady named Rama and a Public Treasury official named Mansour Kane. It is the latter, who had made a false stamp, who is presented as being the brain.
This Treasury agent was waiting for the raid to steal checks before imitating the signature of the general payer, Liberation informs. In his fall, he took away the freight forwarder Mallé Seck who had received, via an intermediary, a falsified check for 400 million CFA francs.
The alleged mastermind and his gang are being prosecuted for embezzlement of public funds, forgery of checks, fraud against public funds, money laundering.
Alongside the DIC, Customs also opened an investigation into imports without declaration. The soldiers of the economy estimate the carnage at 8 billion CFA francs.
