Pape Ndong surprises the judge: 'I will reveal to you why it was not rape'

Pape Ndong, a health worker at Lübke Hospital, was tried for rape, pedophilia, and the abduction of a minor after a 17-year-old girl accused him of sexual abuse. During his trial, he claimed that the act was consensual and that he paid 5,000 Fcfa for a sexual encounter with the complainant, who he alleged was a prostitute. The court ultimately imposed a twelve-month prison sentence due to a lack of civil status documentation, dismissing the charges of minor abduction.
