La Cour de r\u00e9pression des infractions \u00e9conomiques et du terrorisme (CRIET) a rendu son verdict, le jeudi 18 d\u00e9cembre 2025, dans l\u2019affaire de la suppos\u00e9e contrebande de produits tropicaux \u00e0 Kassouala, dans la commune de Tchaourou. Seize agents, dont des douaniers et des policiers, \u00e9taient poursuivis pour leur implication pr\u00e9sum\u00e9e dans un trafic de soja et de noix de cajou vers le Nig\u00e9ria. L\u2019affaire avait \u00e9clat\u00e9 apr\u00e8s la d\u00e9couverte de dix camions remplis de sacs de ces produits stationn\u00e9s \u00e0 proximit\u00e9 de la fronti\u00e8re b\u00e9nino-nig\u00e9riane.<\/p>\n

\u200eAu terme des d\u00e9bats, la CRIET a prononc\u00e9 la relaxe de tous les pr\u00e9venus au b\u00e9n\u00e9fice du doute. Le juge a estim\u00e9 que les \u00e9l\u00e9ments \u00e0 charge \u00e9taient insuffisants pour \u00e9tablir la culpabilit\u00e9 des agents mis en cause. Ainsi, le chef de poste douanier de Kassouala, le commissaire de la localit\u00e9 ainsi que quatorze autres pr\u00e9venus ont \u00e9t\u00e9 lib\u00e9r\u00e9s. Le minist\u00e8re public avait pourtant requis des peines contre quatre des seize pr\u00e9venus. Il les accuse d\u2019\u00ab abus de fonctions \u00bb et de \u00ab blanchiment de capitaux \u00bb. Il avait \u00e9galement demand\u00e9 des peines de 24 mois de prison, dont 12 mois fermes, ainsi qu\u2019une amende de deux millions de francs CFA pour chacun. Toutefois, la Cour n\u2019a pas suivi ces r\u00e9quisitions parce qu’elle estime que les responsabilit\u00e9s ne sont pas clairement \u00e9tablies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
