Touareg rebel leader arrives in Algiers

2010-01-24

Former Touareg rebel leader Ibrahim Ag Bahanga arrived Saturday (January 23rd) in Algeria, El Watan reported. The head of Mali's Democratic Alliance for Change (ADC) will reportedly meet with senior government officials to express his personal commitment to reviving the 2006 peace agreement with Bamako mediated by Algerian Ambassador Abdelkrim Gheraib.

When more than 500 Touaregs surrendered their weapons last February in Kidal as part of the Algiers Accord, Ag Bahanga refused to participate. Ag Bahanga was also absent from the closed-door conference of Touareg leaders held earlier this month in Algiers.
