This article highlights the rejection by Algerian-French writer Boualem Sansal of the pardon that led to his release from prison in Algeria. He made it clear that he wishes to return to the country and undergo a new trial in order to achieve a "genuine trial" during which he would be fully acquitted, with the presence of his lawyer and international observers. Sansal confirmed that he did not want to accept the pardon because it made him feel insulted, and he intends to take international legal action against the Algerian authorities. He has prepared a legal file for this purpose, although the activation of these procedures has been delayed at present, following the requests of both the French and Algerian governments. He also criticized the Algerian authorities’ treatment of him and French journalist Christophe Glick, currently detained in Algeria, expressing his intention to leverage international judicial channels to pursue justice. This situation reflects ongoing tensions between France and Algeria regarding issues of freedom of expression and the detention of French citizens.
