Oumar Kane, known as Reug Reug, was arrested on September 24 in Dakar during an investigation into alleged fake currency trafficking. He was placed in custody along with four others by the Faidherbe research brigade after authorities seized items valued at 60 million FCFA, though this figure has not been officially confirmed. The investigation also examines possible conspiracy and attempted bribery, with Reug Reug reportedly offering money to investigators.
