ghanem: Privately and briefly, according to National Observer. The former Calgary resident, a handsome 29-year-old Canadian with close-cropped dark hair, was led away. After landing and clearing customs, they were met at the airport's exit by three men in civilian clothes who asked to speak to Ghanem. He did not return. He was about to spend more than a year in an Algerian prison. Ghanem was now in the hands of the DSS, Algeria's state security agency notorious for its use of torture and secret detention.
