Algeria: imprisoned
World Watch Monitor
A Christian imprisoned in Algeria for three years for ‘insulting Islam and the prophet Muhammad’ in his social media posts received a partial presidential pardon in July.
Slimane Bouhafs was arrested in July 2016 for posting a message on social media about the light of Jesus overcoming the ‘lie’ of Islam. His sentence of three years imprisonment has been reduced by 16 months, following a partial pardon granted by the Algerian president on the occasion of the 55th anniversary of Algeria’s independence.
