Lyès Deriche (Arabic: [إلياس دريش], Berber: ⵉⵍⵢⴰⵙ ⴷⴻⵔⵉⵛⴻ), (born 1932 in Souk El-Had, Boumerdès Province, Kabylie, Algeria; died 1982 in El Madania, Algeria) was an Algerian Berber politician after the French conquest of Algeria.[1]

Algerian War

Lyès Deriche, the grandson of Mohamed Deriche, housed in his villa in the Algerian commune of Clos-Salembier the meeting of the Group of 22 baptized Revolutionary Committee of Unity and Action (RCUA).[2]

On July 25, 1954, in the modest villa belonging to Lyès Deriche, twenty-two Algerians spoke for the unlimited revolution until total independence. They were all elders of the Special Organization who were summoned in the second half of June 1954.[3]

Many of them were from families where there were qaids and bachaghas who had studied in the schools of the Association Of Algerian Muslim scholars[4] · .[5]

Lyès Deriche, a friend of Zoubir Bouadjadj, was a former militant of the Movement for the Triumph of Democratic Liberties who exploited the notoriety of his family to weave a clandestine revolutionary network in Lower Kabylia. He welcomed Mohamed Boudiaf who was the revolutionary leader of Algiers, and had prepared the meal for the participants in the historic meeting.[6]

About noon the owner of the house, Deriche, invited the presents to a couscous, and after a short pause they returned to work.[7]
