Ismail Brabah from the province of Adrar (southwestern Algeria) appears in the clip circulating on social media while lying on his stomach next to a grave. "Rabah has entered into great sadness and hysterics since the death of his mother about two years ago, which made him not leave her grave, neither day nor night, and does not care about his situation," a local newspaper said.

The Director of Health and Population of the province has been assigned to take care of him.
