drol 11,936 Posted October 3, 2020 In a vegetative state, apparently. Also true he might be exaggerating his conditions to avoid the process. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Deathrace 1,170 Posted January 27, 2021 Hit or miss, he's such a dull pick. The new John Edrich Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
roaming_comrade 471 Posted January 27, 2021 Glad we picked him over, lets say the decade-long supreme leader of China whos 10 years older. or say the last leader of the USSR and ender of the cold war whos 5-6 years older. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drol 11,936 Posted January 27, 2021 Ali Bou is not that bad pick. His history of health issues is long and complex. Surely some time ago he was more in the spotlight than today. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

arghton 6,702 Posted February 14, 2021 He wasn't at the funeral of his brother. Apparently in such a shitty condition he couldn't attend. Attending the funeral would've probably been a death sentence for him anyways, not only because of the covid but also because he'll probably turn into dust if exposed to air 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

arghton 6,702 Posted April 18, 2021 https://www.arabnews.com/node/1650596/middle-east "He lives surrounded by his sister and a medical team," a source close to his entourage told AFP. Bouteflika continues to "enjoy all the privileges" befitting his rank as a former leader, according to Mohamed Hennad, a former political science professor at the University of Algiers. But virtually nothing is known about his daily life. "He receives few visits. He is confined to his wheelchair and remains virtually speechless," said Algerian journalist Farid Alilat in an interview last month with Le Point newspaper.

drol 11,936 Posted April 24, 2021 He is surely alive, the government would have issued an official statement after a few hours. Just the original source quoted his sister, so there may be a slight possibility he's had a deterioration in his health or a medical emergency. But for now 100 % not dead.
