A 45-year-old football coach, Abdoul Aziz Babou, has been detained in Senegal following accusations of repeated sexual assault against two male students, aged 11 and 12, from the Maristes municipal stadium’s football school. The investigation began after one father, A. T., reported his son’s late return from practice and subsequent claims of abuse by the coach on August 5th, 2026. A medical examination revealed recent anal lesions on the first victim, corroborating his detailed account to investigators. Both victims allege instances of forced sexual acts, occurring both at the stadium equipment storage and the coach’s residence. The second victim, S. M., has confirmed the initial allegations. Authorities are continuing their investigation into potential further victims and the extent of the abuse, with Babou currently facing charges of rape, abduction of minors, and acts against nature.
