Jalil Al Kharrabi (Arabic : جليل الخرابى) (September 19 1953 - c.November 23 1992) was a Salamati politician, officer and leader of Salamat from 1977 to 1992.

Early life

Jalil Al Kharrabi is born on September 19 1953 in Ghusat, then in the Salamati Trade Dependency. He is the fifth out of the eight children of Ilias Al Kharrabi (June 29 1913 - January 17 1989) and Shirin Al Kharrabi (September 2 1925 - April 13 1994). He is from the Kharraba tribe, which is a major Salamati tribe which traditionally lives in the area of Ghusat. He is the brother of Ahmad Al Kharrabi (June 22 1958 - August 17 1989), a writer opposed to the regime of Jalil and the brother of Osama Al Kharrabi (July 18 1942 - March 2 2012), the prime minister of Al Kharrabi's government from June 23 1984 to July 30 1989.

He integrates a Riamese school at 6 years old, learns to write and read there and is quickly recognized for his good grades in Common. At 14 years old, he is expelled from middle school because of his affiliation with the Salamati Independence Army. He joins the anti-Riamese forces a few months later.

In 1972, the year at which he turned 19, he joins the Salamati Armed Forces for his military service. He remains attached to the army and quickly rises in the ranks of the army, becoming lieutenant in 1975 and lieutenant-colonel in 1977, the year of the coup d'état.

In parallel to his attachment to the army, he embraces socialism, and more precisely the Muslim Brotherhood's type of socialism called "islamic socialism". He was regularly distributing socialist propaganda in the ranks of the army, to his family and friends. He also established a group with all his loyalists called the "Socialist Officers Group". This group will later help Al Kharrabi achieve his coup d'état.

On August 4 1972, Jalil married Basma Haddouch, a 21 year old nurse.

Coup d'état

Al Kharrabi prepared a coup d'état with the Socialist Officers Group since 1975. In the night between May 15 1977 and May 16 1977, the group of officers arrested ministers, military officers opposed to Al Kharrabi's socialist policies and other government officials. The coup was particularily violent ; an estimate of 125 persons died during the night. At dawn on May 16 1977, Jalil Al Kharrabi entered the radiotelevision center of Dar Al Hamma and made a speech, announcing the demise of the previous "reactionary government". Jalil Al Kharrabi did not reveal his identity until June 1st 1977, the day when he made his first public speech.
