Received invitations to republish Tenzrouft novel
The article reveals the Algerian authorities' decision to convert a military barracks in the Tanezrouft desert region into a high-security prison designated for drug lords and traffickers, a move that has garnered widespread attention in society. Writer Abdelkader Dayf Allah discusses the history of the area, which dates back 13 years, highlighting the suffering of the local population and the conflicts in the desert, especially during the years of violence and hardship in Algeria. Dayf Allah describes Tanezrouft as a harsh and dangerous wasteland, where temperatures can reach up to 52 degrees Celsius in summer, essentially functioning as a natural prison. This makes transforming it into an official prison an inspired decision, given that the region is known as the "Land of Fear." The move reflects a desire to combat drug trafficking and its negative impact on society, especially since the area is considered one of Algeria’s most dangerous zones. It spans an area of about half a million square kilometers between the provinces of Adrar and Boudj Baji Mokhtar, on the borders with Mali and Niger. Furthermore, the writer emphasizes the significance of his novel "Tanezrouft: In Search of Shade," which recounts the adventures of a character from the region and relates the events to the region’s history and circumstances in the desert. The novel underscores the importance of highlighting the situation in the area.
