Akhdar, 23, was aboard the Air Algerie plane which went missing on July 24, 2014 over Mali with 116 passengers and crew, including 51 French and several Lebanese nationals. The most likely cause of the crash of Flight AH5017, which took off from Ouagadougou bound for Algiers, is the weather, France's interior minister said on July 25, 2014, hours after the wreckage of the jet was found in Mali near the Burkina Faso border.
