Guinean accused of murder and drug trafficking

In the sordid affair that shakes the Cité des Eaux, A. Diallo, originally from Conakry, is at the center of a murder investigation. The latter, involved in a motorcycle sale that went wrong, was arrested in an operation carried out by the forces of Biscuiterie-HLM.

The drama broke out on November 8 during a nighttime transaction which degenerated into a violent altercation. The victim, identified as Minoss, was found lying in a pool of blood around 9 p.m. following a blow with a blunt object. The alleged attacker, A. Diallo, had tried to cover his escape by hiding Minoss’ head under a cloth, before being arrested thanks to a detailed composite portrait by witnesses.

During interrogations, A. Diallo pleaded self-defense, asserting that Minoss, dissatisfied with his purchase, had requested a refund. However, investigators remain skeptical, especially since the victim was stabbed in the right carotid artery.

Diallo’s room revealed damning clues: bloody shoes and drugs. 31 balls of hashish and hemp residue were seized, also involving A’s roommate. Diallo in a drug transfer case, whom Diallo named as solely responsible for the substances.

This double investigation, linking homicide and trafficking, is now in the hands of the Senegalese justice system to shed light on this tragic night.
