Mauritania: the assassination of Chouvi Cheine and the escape of Islamist terrorists, two big dark spots in the governance of Ould Ghazouani

After more than three weeks of the crime committed against the activist Chouvi Cheine in a police station in Nouakchott, the assassins have not yet been judged. And six days after the escape of the four terrorist prisoners from the central prison, three of them were killed and the fourth captured.

Two major major events that mark the five-year term of Ould Ghazouani whose common denominator is the serious dysfunction of the administration. The assassination of activist Chouvi is one of the serious police blunders since 2019, the perpetrators of which are police officials.

A case that upsets Mauritanians and that will have ignited social networks and national newsrooms. A crime felt at the highest peak of the State and shaken the sovereign ministries of justice and the Interior and beyond the State Security and the religious for the first time mounted in the niche.

Public opinion fears impunity with the slowness of justice after the accusation of the police commissioner and three judicial police officers of premeditated intentional homicide. A case that is similar to a state affair unlike the escape of the four terrorists from the civil prison of Nouakchott which strongly resembles a serious malfunction of the penitentiary administration.

Behind the success of the armed and security forces lie serious faults on the part of civil and military officials. In both cases, the state is in the front line. Two black spots in the governance of Ould Ghazouani which leave bad traces on the balance sheet of three years.
