In a series of video interviews with journalist Abdou Semmar, Toufik Bennacer, son of the late General Larbi Bennacer and a true regime insider, breaks the omertà and sends shockwaves through the highest echelons of Algerian power. Hounded in France, the insider delivers a scathing account of the inner workings of the People’s National Army (ANP). The suspicious death of General Gaïd Salah, internal purges, megalomaniacal excesses and the illicit enrichment of military clans: a look behind the scenes of a regime consumed by greed and paranoia.
