 Judicial police of the locality of Tlemcen (300 Kms west of Algiers) dismantled this month, two networks working for the support and supply of terrorist groups. Five terrorists bearing nicknames were arrested in the first operation at the small village of Tadjmout located in the southern borders of Tlemcen.
| "Bearing nicknames"? Y'mean like "Muggsy," "Butch," "Ratso," and "Mahmoud the Weasel"? |
| Or "Abu Ali alias Abu Ahmed" |
| "Abu Ratso"? "Mad Dog Abu"? |
As to the second operation carried out in the same region, this one resulted in the arrest of 6 farmers and shepherds accused of supporting, recruiting members for terrorists groups as well as supplying them with commodities. The two fruitful operations coincide with the surrender of one terrorist in the village of Tajmout and 14 others likely to do so, sources revealed. On the other hand, a vast combing operation was carried out by the national popular army troops in the mountainous regions of the area to eliminate the remaining terrorist members. |
