Reporters sans Frontières (RSF) welcomes the release of Al-Waha editor Nedjar El-Hadj Daoud Tuesday evening in the southern city of Ghardaïa, where he had been jailed on the morning of March 2. The Algiers-based daily El Watan said he was released from the city’s prison on medical grounds.
“A commission tasked with executing the court ruling decided to suspend the detention order,” Nedjar told Al-Watan.
