Touba is once again shaken by a terrible tragedy. According to exclusive information from Libération, Yamou Ndiaye, a mother of four children, was stabbed to death by her own brother-in-law in the Forage district. This tragic murder, which occurred yesterday, followed a seemingly insignificant argument over a household shovel, but which took a fatal turn.
An altercation that turns into a nightmare
The tragedy took place in the family home. A quarrel breaks out between Yamou Ndiaye, nicknamed Youma, and her brother-in-law, a young man in his twenties, who is said to be suffering from mental disorders. According to Libération, the latter grabbed a knife during the argument and stabbed the victim.
Rushed to try to save her, Yamou Ndiaye unfortunately succumbed to her injuries, leaving behind her four children and a family in a state of shock.
A murderer in the hands of justice
After the tragedy, the young murderer was apprehended by the police and is currently in the hands of the Belel brigade. The exact circumstances of the incident, including the motivations behind the act, remain unclear, but the suspect’s mental health issues could play a central role in the investigation.
A drama that revives the debate on mental disorders
