Pedophilia in Thiès: A 40-year-old man acquitted of rape of a 2-year-old girl

The Thiès court acquitted Mr. Camara, a 40-year-old man, who was tried for the rape of a two-year-old girl, S. Gadiaga, due to insufficient evidence. The events allegedly took place in 2024 in the Mbour 1 neighborhood after a complaint was filed by the child's mother. Medical examinations revealed lesions consistent with sexual abuse, but the hymen was not torn. The acquittal raises questions about the protection of minors and the effectiveness of the judicial system.
