Mourad Dhina

Mourad Dhina (Arabic: مراد دهينة; born 6 August 1961) is an Algerian physicist and activist living in Switzerland.

[3] During the 1990s, he supported terrorist groups such as the Islamic Front of Armed Jihad (FIDA) He did not hesitate to describe Mohammed Saïd as a martyr, in the review Al Qadiât in December 1995 [4] Dhina condemns the violence of the Algerian army during the civil war of the 1990s but some Algerian activists close the "eradicators"[5] claim that he has never condemned the violence and the murders of secular journalists and intellectuals by the Islamist extremists.

His response is that he does condemn all victims of the violence and rejects the selectivity of those who want to single out the so-called "secular journalists and intellectuals".

He has always called for independent and credible investigations into the massacres, disappearances, killings and torture that Algeria has witnessed since the 1992 coup.

[7][8] After almost six months of detention in Paris, the French judiciary finally ordered him released in a ruling that considered the Algerian warrant as ill-founded and that there was no reason to keep Dhina detained.
