Her maternal grandmother Fatiha Bouhired, born Hattali Oukhiti, was also militant like her husband, and throughout the Algerian war the family houses were used as a refuge for the main leaders of the urban guerrillas in Algiers.[12] She was arrested twice at the family home, one with Yacef Saâdi, Zohra Drif,[13] as well as with her six-month-old daughter Hafida Bouhired, who was imprisoned in Serkadji Prison and released.[12]
