[Maghrebia] Kidnapping businessmen for ransom has replaced robbing post offices and commercial centres as the main source of al-Qaeda financing in Algeria, El Khabar quoted a new Algerian security report as stating on Friday (May 22nd). The terrorist group is primarily concentrated in the Kabylie region, the report said. Tizi-Ouzou tops the region in abductions, followed by Boumerdès and Batna. The report noted similar operations in Tébessa and Oued Souf.
