Senegalese opponent Ousmane Sonko and his second, Bassirou Diomaye Faye, presidential candidate, were released from prison in Dakar on Thursday March 14. “They came out in front of us.

That’s it,” Me Cheikh Khouraissy Ba told AFP. An AFP journalist saw a 4x4 moving away in a procession from the Cape Manuel prison through a considerable crowd drawn by the news of the release.
