23 defendants had been appearing since September 7.

Some had been released at the beginning of the summer, and placed under judicial supervision, after their lawyers had argued that, because of the confinement which had stopped the judicial machine, they had not been tried on time.

After ten days of hearing, despite their arguments to say they were innocent or to reduce their participation, the three presumed leaders of the network, Cheick Sylla, Yohan Adam and Fatah Laraba, were respectively sentenced to terms of 10 years, 8 years and 7 years of imprisonment.

Yohan Adam also received a ban on the possession of a weapon for 5 years.
