Whereas O.G.J is being charged with
pimping G.E, M.F, P. A and B. N;
That pursuant to the provision of article
533(22) of the Penal Code, pimping is an
offence characterized by anyone by any means
whatsoever:
- Aiding, abetting or hiding someone else’s
prostitution;
- drawing profit from someone’s prostitution,
sharing products thereof or receiving
financial gains from some usually indulging
in prostitution
- employing, training, or abducting someone
into becoming a sex worker or mounting
pressure on her to become and keep on
being a sex worker;
That pursuant to this provision, the offence of
pimping, to be established suggests one of the
above-mentioned material and premeditation
grounded in the conscious participation in
someone’s prostitution;
Whereas in the case at hand, the
Accused O.G.J acknowledges that she spent CFA
F 800,000 (eight hundred thousand) to get G.
E, M.F, P.A and B.N to travel to Burkina Faso,
where they were to work as waitresses and sex
workers; that she also provided them with the
material they used as sex workers particularly
their dresses and shelter; that by so doing, she
aided and abetted in committing prostitution;
Whereas the Accused acknowledges
she requested the reimbursement of CFA F
800,000 (eight hundred thousand) which she had
spent for the transport of the victims; that they
reimbursed this money with proceeds from
prostitution; that the girls all agreed on the fact
that she collected all their proceeds from
prostitution and that each of them had to pay
CFA F 1,200,000 (one million two hundred
thousand) to regain their freedom; that in doing
this, she enjoyed the benefits of another
person’s prostitution as described in the article
mentioned above;
Whereas as examination of the cause shows
that
O.G.J
employed
G.E, M.F, P.
A and B. N in her maquis “le lingot
d’or” as waitresses and sex workers; that it is
while they attended
to
customers
that
they booked appointment with them to
indulge into prostitution
