La Cour d’appel de Bangui a entam\u00e9, le lundi 3 ao\u00fbt, sa premi\u00e8re session criminelle de l’ann\u00e9e 2026. Pendant pr\u00e8s d’un mois, jusqu’au 31 ao\u00fbt, la juridiction doit examiner une trentaine de dossiers mettant en cause plus de quarante accus\u00e9s, parmi lesquels figure une femme, poursuivis pour des faits allant du viol au d\u00e9tournement de deniers publics, en passant par le meurtre, l’assassinat et le vol \u00e0 main arm\u00e9e.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Les personnes jug\u00e9es lors de cette session sont d\u00e9tenues depuis leur inculpation dans les maisons d’arr\u00eat de Ngaragba et du Camp de Roux, ainsi qu’\u00e0 la prison pour femmes de Bimbo. Cette ouverture \u00e9tait particuli\u00e8rement attendue apr\u00e8s les reports enregistr\u00e9s lors des sessions criminelles pr\u00e9c\u00e9dentes, plusieurs affaires ayant \u00e9t\u00e9 renvoy\u00e9es \u00e0 la suite d’exceptions de proc\u00e9dure soulev\u00e9es par les avocats de la d\u00e9fense, qui d\u00e9non\u00e7aient des irr\u00e9gularit\u00e9s dans l’instruction de certains dossiers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Un test pour l’appareil judiciaire<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cette fois, le parquet g\u00e9n\u00e9ral se veut rassurant : selon les autorit\u00e9s judiciaires, l’ensemble des affaires inscrites au r\u00f4le a fait l’objet des v\u00e9rifications n\u00e9cessaires et serait d\u00e9sormais juridiquement pr\u00eat \u00e0 \u00eatre examin\u00e9 par la Cour. Au-del\u00e0 du sort individuel des accus\u00e9s, cette session constitue un test pour le fonctionnement de la justice centrafricaine, r\u00e9guli\u00e8rement critiqu\u00e9e pour la lenteur de son traitement des dossiers criminels et l’allongement des d\u00e9tentions provisoires qui en r\u00e9sulte.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Les d\u00e9cisions qui seront rendues dans les prochaines semaines seront suivies de pr\u00e8s, tant par les familles des victimes que par les organisations engag\u00e9es dans la promotion de l’\u00c9tat de droit, dans un pays o\u00f9 la lutte contre l’impunit\u00e9 reste un enjeu majeur. La question du financement des sessions criminelles, r\u00e9guli\u00e8rement point\u00e9e comme cause des retards accumul\u00e9s par le pass\u00e9, continuera par ailleurs de conditionner la r\u00e9gularit\u00e9 de la tenue de ces audiences dans les ann\u00e9es \u00e0 venir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pour les avocats de la d\u00e9fense comme pour les parties civiles, cette reprise repr\u00e9sente aussi l’occasion de solder un stock de dossiers parfois vieux de plusieurs ann\u00e9es, durant lesquelles des pr\u00e9venus ont pu rester en d\u00e9tention provisoire sans jugement. Ce ph\u00e9nom\u00e8ne, document\u00e9 de longue date par les organisations de d\u00e9fense des droits humains pr\u00e9sentes en Centrafrique, continue d’alimenter les critiques sur l’engorgement chronique du syst\u00e8me p\u00e9nitentiaire et judiciaire du pays, en d\u00e9pit des efforts affich\u00e9s par la Cour d’appel pour rattraper le retard accumul\u00e9 sur les sessions pr\u00e9c\u00e9dentes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
