SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Dec 27 – Ibrahima Ndiaye
was arrested on September 21,
2023 for having destroyed
property in Senegal's
consulate and UN Mission
during a protest.
Ndiaye was
presented before U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York
Magistrate Judge Jennifer E.
Willis on September 21. Inner
City Press was there, the only
media in the SDNY Mag Court.
[Earlier in the week, it did
its best to cover the UN
General Assembly week in which
Senegal's Macky Sall
is.]
Judge
Willis asked the AUSA if
consular notification was
required, ironic in this case.
The AUSA said it is not
mandatory. This follows a
similar case against Diop the
day before.
She added that
the US agreed to release on
$10,000 bond - and stay away
from the Senegal consulate and
mission.
Jump cut to
December 23, 2024 whenNdiaye's
lawyer asked to delay
sentencing from January 6,
2025 to late March 2025 to
allow for verbal interview of
friends and family in Senegal.
On December 27
Judge Aaron postponed
sentencing from January 6 to
March 6, 2024 at 11 am.
The case is
US v. Ndiaye, 24-cr-501
