Algerian AQIM leader Ahmed Abu Abdul-Elah Al-Jigli warned the government that the group was “still committed to the directives of our Sheikh and Emir Dr. Ayman al-Zawahiri…to co-operate with [post-revolution governments] in applying sharia,” and threatened “fatal consequences” for “injustice.” The terror group recently pledged its support for Ansar al Sharia Tunisia. Foreign Affairs Minister Noureddine Khadmi said that a hundred mosques in Tunisia are controlled by radical groups and out of the government’s control.
