The mystery surrounding the disappearance of former Senegalese Finance Minister Mamadou Moustapha Ba, which occurred in France. The initial results of the autopsy, revealed by the public prosecutor's office, raise new questions about the circumstances of his death.
Disturbing preliminary findings
Visit public prosecutor from Senegal has made an announcement that overturns the initial version of events. According to the official press release, "the results of the autopsy [...] have revealed several elements which are such as to attest that the death was not natural". This statement, as sober as it is worrying, marks a turning point in this case, which is now taking on a new dimension.
Faced with these troubling discoveries, the judicial authorities decided to take immediate action. The public prosecutor has ordered further investigations, demonstrating the authorities' determination to shed light on all the grey areas surrounding this death.
Funeral postponement

"The formalities linked to the body removal and burial procedure have been postponed to a later date", states the public prosecutor's statement, underlining the priority given to establishing the truth.
This case, which is taking an unexpected turn, is likely to see further developments in the coming days, as investigators continue their inquiries to shed light on the exact circumstances of Mamadou Moustapha Ba's death.
