Algeria's first death penalty for drug crimes
For the first time in Algeria, death sentences have been issued against nine defendants in drug and psychotropic substance trafficking cases, based on the amended anti-drug legislation following the implementation of Law No. 25-03. The sentences involved the possession of 113 kilograms of cocaine and 25,000 hallucinogenic pills, reflecting the government's intensified crackdown on drug smuggling. This comes amid efforts by Algerian President Abdelmadjid Tebboune to combat attempts to flood the country with drugs and to safeguard national security and the youth.
