Tabon: Changes to Penal Code for Arson
The recent wave of fires in Algeria has doubled in magnitude, resulting in significant human and material losses, with 12 casualties reported according to official data. This comes amid investigations focusing on the possibility of criminal involvement behind the simultaneous outbreaks in multiple regions, despite the absence of winds that typically aid in the spread of fires. Scientific and technological teams have been deployed to gather evidence and analyze the causes of the fires. Efforts to extinguish 35 fires within 24 hours are underway, most of which have been brought under control. Additionally, authorities have been directed to restore essential services and provide compensation to those affected. In an unprecedented move, Algerian President Abdelmadjid Tebboune ordered the implementation of the death penalty for anyone proven to be intentionally setting fires, following a widespread outbreak of fires in the east and central parts of the country. The measure aims to deter further criminal actions and safeguard public security.
