Commissioner Bara Sankharé's men dismantled a network of Schengen and Canadian visa traffickers in Dakar on Monday.

5 forgers. Samba Lô, Abdoulaye Ndiaye, Issa Dieng, Aliou Guèye, and Mamadou A. Ba. These are the names of the actors in this mafia that the police were able to apprehend. This maneuver was possible thanks to the collaboration of a victim. The nominee Soumaré said that individuals who promised to find him visas on behalf of his fellow Mauritanians ended up defrauding him of the sum of 12,904,289 CFA francs.

The surveillance system set up by the security forces at the Sandaga roundabout where the complainant made an appointment with the counterfeiters made it possible to get hold of nine Mauritanian passports, on which were affixed with forged Schengen and Canadian visas. The five traffickers were taken to the premises of the central police station in Dakar. At the end of the investigations, they were referred for criminal association, fraud and forgery, and use of forgery.
