Downtown Dakar: Who are the Peretz, the Israeli family at the heart of the 9-billion CFA land "gift"?

The Senegalese government transferred a large strategic land block in Dakar's city center to Ad Immobilier, controlled by the Israeli Peretz family, valued at approximately 9 billion CFA francs. The site included the former Gendarmerie headquarters, National Archives, and a dojo, in exchange for building a new gendarmerie headquarters. The transfer was made through a 50-year emphyteutic lease at an annual rent of 5 million CFA francs, raising questions about the true value of the deal given the gap between land value and construction costs.
