GSPC leaders behind kidnappings in Algeria

The command of the Safist Group for Preaching and Combat (GSPC) has remarkably intensified kidnappings in return for ransom since January 2008.

Security observers say this terrorist plan has 3 objectives but its consequences will be negative on the GSPC’s future.
It is believed that those kidnappings are meant to compensate for the dismantling of terror support networks.
Security analyses indicate that kidnappings will deepen boycott among citizens who used to fund the terrorist organisation especially the Kabylie region.
The terrorist kidnappings plan show that they focus on Boumerdes (50 km east of Algiers) and Tizi Ouzou (100 km east of Algiers) or the so-called “the second zone”. That reflects the choice of the command to adopt kidnappings and directly benefit from booties. This indicator shows that there is a feeling of being surrounded and a need to get money as soon as possible.
On the other hand, observers do not exclude that the kidnappings series would be a prelude for a next step of repentance of GSPC’s leaders.
It is believed that local leaders would likely surrender after a blackmail campaign. Echorouk estimates indicate that the terrorist organisation got 5.3 billion centimes in kidnappings acts in June only.
