PolymarketRules
Christophe Gleizes, a French sports journalist (So Foot, Society), was arrested in Algeria in May 2024 and sentenced to 7 years in prison for "apology of terrorism" after reporting on the JSK football club.
- His appeal was confirmed in December 2025, and on May 25, 2026, Algeria's Supreme Court rejected the prosecutor's appeal, making the conviction final — a legal precondition his lawyers say is required for a presidential pardon.
- Diplomatic relations between France and Algeria have been thawing since May 2026 (return of the French ambassador, ministerial visits), but no pardon has been announced as of August 2026.
- Resolves YES if: Algeria issues a pardon, amnesty, or otherwise releases Gleizes from detention (including transfer/expulsion to France or a third country) before December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM.
- Resolves NO if: he remains in Algerian custody past that date.
