From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Guermah Massinissa)
Massinissa Guermah of northern Algeria was a 19-year-old Kabyle (Berber) high school student arrested by Algerian gendarmes on April 18, 2001. In circumstances still not clear, he received gunshot wounds inside the gendarmerie, which he later died of on April 20 in the Mustapha Hospital.
His killing caused months-long riots in Kabylie, these events were called the Black spring . The violence was fuelled by an Algerian national campaign to impose Arabic language on its people in place of indigenous languages including Kabyle.
