"Merouane's act disgraces us: "we will never forgive the responsible of his suicide"
In a poor area southern Algiers, Merouane Boudina lived with his ten brothers, one among them had joined the terrorist groups in their beginnings in 1994. Merouane is the kamikaze bomber Mouâd Ibn Djabel real name. El Khabar met his relatives and talked to them on his travel to death.
We're talking about the Algiers bombings yesterday...
“When my mother watched pictures aired on Arab TV channels after the bombings she cracked down! She has been deeply shocked, she never expected that Merouane was going to end his life to kill other people, she is very ill”, his older brother Nourredine told us. Angry, he stated “Merouane’s act disgraces us, he killed himself and took other innocent lives… Is it a Jihadist act? Jihad begins by oneself!”

El Khabar has been told that the 28-year old Mourad Boudina was a drug consumer and has often been arrested. He has nothing to do with religion, some told us, and others stated that he appeared to be interested in religion before he disappeared since seven months. His brother Nourredine denied the fact that Merouane’s act reflects a Jihadist thought pointing out “I know him very well, he has never been interested in religion”, and further added “These people exploit some person’s ignorance…I will never forgive those who planned for the attacks!”

On the difficult social conditions impact on Merouane’s suicide behaviour, the elderly grand-father refused to justify suicide and killing the others by insurmountable conditions stating “you see all the poor houses all over there… inside there are young people as Merouane and younger than him, they are enduring the same conditions, but they have not perpetrated terrorist acts. Some of them are still studying and the others are fighting to survive as most of Algerians do”.
