Reug Reug Case: Large Sum of Fake $100 Bills Seized by Gendarmerie

Dakar gendarmerie seized a large quantity of counterfeit $100 bills valued at 830 million CFA francs. Wrestler Oumar Kane, known as « Reug Reug », and two other suspects were taken into custody during an operation on September 24, 2026, after presenting the fake bills at a meeting with an undercover agent. The investigation started following a tip on September 18, 2026, about a group seeking to « wash » blackened bills, involving the wrestler's uncle and a mystic preparer.
