Can the Arabic spelling of his name be verified? Both the English and Arabic pages list it as "عبد المالك درودكال", however that would be Abdelmalek Droudkel (note the order of the D and K). When I search the two variants of his spelling, درودكال (i.e. "Droudkel") has ~76k results, whereas دروكدال (i.e. "Droukdel) has ~230k results.
