Born in 1996,Bouchentouf is my cousin from the paternal side,he is the youngest boy from a family of 9,like the most of his brothers he is a redhead,Bouchentouf was diagnosed with a mental disease at an early part from his life,he quit the school just after two years of studying in a primary school,he lost his father when he was 5 years old.
Bouchentouf spend all his childhood and an important part from his teenager-hood in his parent's farm in the countryside at the outskirts of Mascara,the region is well known for its agricultural activities,everything was fine until the family suffered from a lack of water resources,after digging and redigging their own well,water was always the main absent,the family start thinking of leaving the farm to a small neighboring town,around five kilometers away,to an agreeable flat with better life conditions according to them,the suicide of his older brother Djilali made the process of their relocation just faster.
The cousin was never at ease with the lifestyle of the town,his move their was like a shock,his new neighbors start nicknaming him 'al hamra',a local appellation for someone who is redheaded,understandably he become very aggressive when hearing that.
The family's farm house is completely abandoned now,a couple of farmers left it recently after they were renting the hangar and the house for chicken raising,Bouchentouf is keeping his attachment to the farm house in a strange manner,in fact he goes there everyday, wandering and wondering in the surroundings of the farm.
