Three years after its first sale, why is the State of Senegal relaunching the operation?

The apartments seized from Eden Roc as part of the Karim Wade case will be on sale this Tuesday, July 21, 2020, and the operation will be closed on Tuesday, July 28, 2020. But this is not a first because in 2017 already, the Direction des Domaines had already put these apartments up for sale. Or two years after the sentencing of Karim Wade and his main co-accused Ibrahima Khalil Bourgi to 6 and 5 year terms. Only at this time when Mamour Diallo was still Director of the Domains, the Head of State wanted this sale operation to be carried out as legally as possible. Potential buyers had to be citizens who were not involved in any management of public goods. This was to ensure in the future that no accusation of embezzlement on the part of the buyers tarnish the sale of this property which enters the private domain of the State.
As a reminder, in its judgment No. 02/2015 of March 23, 2015, the Court of Suppression of Illicit Enrichment (CREI) had ordered the confiscation of several movable, immovable, divided or undivided assets. These apartments had been confiscated in this context.
Also, according to a note from the Ministry of Finance and Budget, at the end of the provisions of article 21 of law n ° 76-66 of July 2, 1966 relating to the State Domain Code, as amended, these goods come into office in the private domain of the State. It is therefore brought to the attention of the public that the sale will start on Tuesday July 21, 2020 and will be closed on Tuesday July 28, 2020. A site visit will be organized on Thursday July 23, 2020. For any further information or to submit the offers price, informs the source, anyone interested is asked to contact the Department of Domains, established at the Tax Block, rue Thiong angle Vincens, Dakar.
