Ayoub Aissiou, a businessman with close ties to the former Algerian presidential circle under Abdelaziz Bouteflika, has been arrested in Spain. The arrest follows an outstanding warrant issued by Algerian authorities. He is currently being held in Spain awaiting a decision regarding the extradition request. The details surrounding the charges against Aissiou remain largely undisclosed. This development suggests a continued effort by Algeria to pursue individuals linked to the previous administration. The case is now in the hands of the Spanish legal system, which will determine Aissiou’s fate and whether he will be returned to Algeria to face justice. This arrest was initially reported by TSA, an Algerian news source.
