According to OBS reports, employees of the operational department of the Central Bureau for Combating Illicit Drug Trafficking (Ocrtis) landed on Ngor Beach, right at the “Madrague” hotel, on the morning of Saturday, August 31, 2024.

During this reception, the henchmen of Commissioner Nian, Octis’ new strongman, are assigned to keep an eye on an influential boss of the tough mafia operating in and around Ngor.

Undercover officers had been monitoring a drug dealer’s every move for weeks and managed to covertly observe him as he sold drugs, heroin and ecstasy at Ngor Beach and Esplanade West.

On this day, the police forces, led by the head of the Octis Operations Unit, hid in a hidden corner of the aforementioned hotel where the target worked. As if by magic, the hotel has today bid farewell to A AK due to the accumulation of violations of the rules of hospitality.

Carrying a backpack, AAK, 52, walked to his car in the hotel parking lot, where his longtime friend and assistant was waiting. Seeing AAK and his companions preparing to evacuate the house, plainclothes officers intervened and surrounded his vehicle.

In order to eradicate AA Kane and SB, who are still in the hands of the police, the drug dealers will use all means to stop the boarding of the bosses. Faced with the increasingly clear threat of the attacker, the police chief drew his pistol and fired two warning shots.

Instead of taking action, the drug dealers physically attacked the police, who chose to restrain the attackers without opening fire to avoid a bloodbath. During the attack, one officer lost his usual weapon with a loaded cartridge.

K. Ngor grabbed the gun and waved it. At the same time, a bullet from the gun hit a police officer who was helping a colleague in the lower left leg.

Beeps for reinforcements

While the police struggled to contain the anger of the attackers and ensure the safety of the two arrested persons, another group of youths arrived at the scene to lend a helping hand to KN and his gang.

Faced with this complex new situation, the Oktis police faced a difficult choice: shoot the attacker, protect the two “packages” at the same time, and make a strategic retreat without leaking the information. On impulse, Officer Oktis opted for a strategic retreat and took the two detainees to a hotel.

Firefighters on duty at Ngor Beach immediately evacuated the injured officer to the main hospital. In order to restore public order as quickly as possible, the police requested reinforcements from the Multipurpose Intervention Brigade (Bip) and the Rapid Intervention Group (Gri).

The rapid deployment of these elite police forces brought the situation under control, resulting in the arrest of four (4) attackers, including KN. According to the instructions of the prosecutor, Kh. Ngor and his gang were handed over to the gendarmerie for “conspiracy to engage in drug trafficking, obstructing the police in the performance of their duties, inciting violence against the police and confiscating military weapons used by the police in the performance of their duties.”
