Ali La Pointe
At a young age, Ali Ammar faced many hardships as he tried to help his family survive. He strongly disliked the colonial system in Algeria that oppressed his people. Ali rebelled against this injustice. When he was just thirteen, he got into trouble for standing up to a French policeman. After serving time in prison, he learned masonry in Algiers. He also enjoyed boxing at the Algiers Sports Club. However, his rebellious nature led to more prison sentences for various crimes, including theft, assault, and attempted homicide.
