JUSTICE / HOUNDÉGNON CASE: The Supreme Court Rejects the Appeal in Cassation
Another judicial setback for Sessi Louis Philippe Houndégnon. Meeting this Thursday, September 24, 2026, the Supreme Court ruled on the appeal in cassation filed by the legal counsel of the former senior Republican Police officer. Following its deliberations, the high court delivered its verdict: the appeal is rejected.
Led by a team of lawyers headed by Me Fidèle Abouta and Me François Kéké, this legal effort aimed to challenge a previous decision handed down against their client. By rejecting their arguments, the Court upholds the contested ruling, bringing a final close to this phase of the proceedings before the highest judicial authority.
This decision comes as part of a complex case that has been closely monitored for several months and marked by multiple defense actions across competent jurisdictions.
From a legal standpoint, this rejection makes the challenged ruling final, without prejudicing the overall continuation of the case, which will continue to follow its course in accordance with the law.
