Ali Yassine

Ali Yassine is a former president of the Annour Islamic community in Ripoll, Spain, known for hiring Abdelbaki Es Satty as the imam of the local mosque. During a parliamentary inquiry into the 2017 Catalonia terrorist attacks, Yassine stated that he was unaware of Es Satty's radical ideology, believing him to be a respectable leader within the mosque. He expressed regret over the lack of communication from security forces regarding Es Satty's past criminal record and emphasized the need for community awareness in preventing radicalization.
