Algerian Man Found Alive After 26 Years in Neighbor's Cellar

Omar Bin Omran, missing since 1998, discovered just meters from his family home in Djelfa.

Omar Bin Omran vanished at age 17 during the Algerian Civil War, presumed dead by his family.
He was held captive in a cellar beneath his neighbor's sheep pen, hidden under hay.
The discovery was triggered by the captor's brother revealing the location during an inheritance dispute.
Omran's mother, who died in 2013, never stopped searching for him.
The alleged captor has been arrested and an investigation is ongoing.
