Even his prison guards are smiling. One on the left looks like he admires him.
I’ll be honest. Charity aside, I like that the guy kicked the banks in the dick.
Despite much information on the internet Bendelladj did not get sentenced to death, and claims saying he donated any money to charity are almost impossible to verify. Trial documents did not mention any donations or charity activities, making the claim of charity disputed and not known for sure.
Is there any proof of the charity claims? Because Wikipedia gives nothing
Would be a bad hacker if he left a trail of all the money
Money leaves a trail by itself, it doesn’t magically disappear and reappear somewhere else
I mean no, it doesn’t, youre right.
Declaring income would be what most of those charities ans whatnot would prolly need to do somewhere at least. So I find this story dubious.
At the same time though, it is technically possible for him to have put money on crypto and email someone the keys to the wallets.
Al-Jazeera is not a credible source
More credible than most US media conglomerate news sources
Oh my God, could there be alternatives somewhere between the US and radical Islamists? 😱
Sure. Jacobin et al
Aljazeera is a fine source as long as you’re not looking at their news regarding Qatar/Qatari interests.
MBFC Credibility Rating: MEDIUM CREDIBILITY
Bias Rating: LEFT-CENTER (-3.2) Factual Reporting: MIXED (4.7) Country: Qatar MBFC’s Country Freedom Rank: LIMITED FREEDOM Media Type: TV Station Traffic/Popularity: High Traffic
What’s a good unbiased source? As an example I checked DW on the above website and while they’re rated as being left center and having a high factual reporting, thanks to Germany’s general bias they currently report very little about Palestine.
Pretty much any word in the picture is contradicted by the Wikipedia article
As many narrative exist depending on who’s facts you’re listening to.
I doubt he’ll still be smiling after 15 years in a Thai prison.
According to his Wikipedia article, he was sentenced in the US so I suppose he is in an American prison.
That explains why he got 15 years for a non-violent crime.
I guess that’s slightly better.
Probably not
Pro tip: If you’re gonna steal from a bank, steal from a Norwegian one.
Is there a back story to this that I don’t know?
Norwegian prisons are famously relatively humane compared to most other countries
Cool motive, still theft.
Theft against banks.
According to the Wikipedia he withdrew money from private individuals’ credit cards.
Ever heard of protections for citizens. That money is back in all those affected accounts as it legally is required to be
Are they the same in every country?
Unless their money currency is in north Korean won, for the most part yes. Most banks are multinational and those aren’t are regulated government banks. Unless he hacked entirely third world and even the low income people in the third world sketchy banks. The money is safe.
Unless it was a silicon valley type bank, then in that case boo hoo the victims
That’s the bank’s money.
