Arrested last Friday at the Aibd while returning from a stay in Dubai, Samuel Sarr is in police custody at the Colobane Research Section. The general director of West African Energy (Wae), a power plant project, is being prosecuted for misuse of corporate assets. The damage is estimated at 2 billion CFA francs.
After the current general director of Senelec, Papa Toby Gaye, L’Observateur announces other hearings. These are that of the general director of the Société Industrie Commerce (Senico), Abdoulaye Dia, and that of the representative of the general director of Locafrique, Abdou Karim Diop.
The latter were interviewed this Monday in the premises of the Research Section (SR). Where the former director of Senelec, Papa Mademba Biteye, is expected this Tuesday before investigators, says the newspaper.
The same source specifies that the hearing of businessman Harouna Dia is also scheduled.
“Currently in Ouagadou, capital of Burkina Faso, Harouna Dia was supposed to reach Dakar at the start of the week. That is to say yesterday Monday. However, a missed flight postponed his arrival. […]. The latest news is that the wealthy businessman, very close to Macky Sall, is expected Wednesday around noon. His hearing, described by those close to the case as a decisive turning point, could give a major boost to the investigation,” predicts L’Obs.
