Larbi Bouhali (Arabic: العربي بوهالي; born 1912 in El Kantara)[1] was an Algerian communist politician.
[1] In 1939, he was named secretary of the Algerian People's Aid (Secours populaire algerien), an organization dedicated to assisting victims of colonial repression.
[4] In 1940, Bouhali, along with other Communist Party leaders, was imprisoned and deported to the Sahara,[6] where he was detained at the Djenien-Bou-Rezg concentration camp.
[7] At the third party congress, held in 1947, Bouhali was elected general secretary, replacing Amar Ouzegane.
[12] Bouhali returned to Algeria but went into exile again (along with other communist leaders) a few months after the 1965 coup d'état.
