COTE D’IVOIRE 'SORO'

from News in French · host Channel Africa

En Côte d’Ivoire, le procès contre Guillaume Soro, l’ex-Président de l’Assemblée Nationale et 19 de ses proches connaitra son épilogue ce Mercredi après-midi. Le Tribunal de 1ère instance d’Abidjan rendra son verdict sur l’Affaire. Pour rappel Guillaume Soro, déjà condamné à 20 ans de prison par la justice ivoirienne dans une autre affaire de détournement de deniers publics et de blanchiment de capitaux, est cette fois-ci poursuivi pour atteinte à la sureté de l’état et tentative de subversion. Le Procureur de la République a requis la réclusion à perpétuité contre Guillaume Soro et de lourdes peines pour plusieurs de ses proches dont son ancien Directeur de Protocole Souleymane Kamaraté. Pour le camp Soro, il ne s’agit ni plus ni moins d’un procès politique tendant à éloigner leur leader de la scène politique ivoirienne. Bref, la décision de justice attendue cet après-midi est un véritable test pour la justice ivoirienne dont l’indépendance est mise à rude épreuve "English translation: In Côte d'Ivoire, the trial against Guillaume Soro, the former President of the National Assembly and 19 of his relatives will end on Wednesday afternoon. The Abidjan Court of First Instance will deliver its verdict on the case. As a reminder, Soro, already sentenced to 20 years in prison by the Ivorian justice in another case of embezzlement of public funds and money laundering, is this time prosecuted for undermining the security of the state and attempted subversion. The Public Prosecutor requested life imprisonment against Soro and heavy sentences for several of his relatives, including his former Director of Protocol Souleymane Kamaraté. For the Soro camp, this is neither more nor less than a political trial tending to alienate their leader from the Ivorian political scene. In short, the court decision expected this afternoon is a real test for Ivorian justice whose independence is being severely tested "
