Documented Links Between Algerian Army and AQIM's Leader, Mokhtar Belmokhtar
Contact: K.Drawi, 240-994-2476
ROCKVILLE, Md., March 25, 2016 /Standard Newswire/ -- The Mediterranean-centered television channel Medi1 TV aired on March 24, 2016 on "60 Minutes To Understand," an investigative report providing new information on the hostage crisis of 2013. The crisis took place at the Tigantourine gas facility near In Amenas, Algeria, and was carried out by a group of jihadists affiliated with Al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM). At least 37 foreign hostages were killed.
The report presents evidence of several telephone calls, including one between the Algerian terrorist Mokhtar Belmokhtar, who was supervising the taking of hostages and Abderrahman, a member of the jihadist group called ''Signers in Bloods.''
During this brief exchange, surprised by the aerial attack by the Algerian army on his group as well as on the hostages, Abderrahman is heard transmitting a distress call shouting "The Algerian (government) doesn't keep its word!''
Experts invited to comment on the report concluded that ''there can be no doubt that the terrorist group was bound by a tacit agreement with the Algerian authorities.''
The existence of this agreement has been recently confirmed by a confidential email released by WikiLeaks that was sent on January 17, 2013 to former US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to inform her on the "Latest French Intelligence Reports Hostage Crisis On Algerian"
The report sent by Sidney Blumenthal, a long-time confidant of Hillary Clinton and training aid to former president Bill Clinton during his presidential tenure, reveals that the Bouteflika government had a highly confidential understanding with the Algerian jihadist partner after the April 2012 kidnapping of the Algerian consul in Gao (Mali) "to concentrate his operations in Mali, and occasionally, with the encouragement of the Algerian Department of External Security, attack Moroccan interests in Western Sahara."
As further evidence an email from Blumenthal to Clinton, dated 19 January 2013, entitled 'French Algeria latest information,' stating that "Above all, we learn that the Algerian government planned to meet Belmokhtar again after the attacks."
At the same time, according to this sensitive source "officers of the Algerian Department of External Security are looking to secretly meet Belmokhtar or one of his lieutenants in northern Mauritania in the immediate future. They have been ordered to find out why Belmokhtar violated their two-year-old agreement and launched attacks inside Algeria."
