In the process, the media specified that the latter, who appeared to be in good health, had suffered anaphylactic shock.

His long-time friend, Gérard Jugnot, was the first to announce the sad news on his Instagram account. “Damn Michel… What did you do to us…”, he declared in order to refer to the death of Ramatoulaye Diop's companion. Then, a few days later, during a public event, Gérard Jugnot burst into tears in front of a retrospective intended to pay tribute to his colleague. Since then, many actors and public figures have recalled their fond memories alongside the late actor.
