Corruption crimes have become so widespread that they are difficult to track due to their clandestine nature, global reach, and organized structure. They are planned in one country, executed in another, and their proceeds are reaped in a third. This has necessitated international intervention to combat them within the framework of international conventions, including the 2003 Convention Against Corruption. Having ratified this convention in 2004, and in fulfillment of its international obligations and its desire to combat corruption particularly administrative corruption, the Algerian legislature intervened through Law No. 06-01 on the Prevention and Combating of Corruption, employing various mechanisms. Given that whistleblowing to the relevant authorities is the most effective mechanism and mandatory for uncovering these crimes, the protection of the whistleblower from any threat is necessary. Hence, the importance of this topic lies in examining the legal guarantees for whistleblower protection, assessing their seriousness and adequacy, and arriving at a set of conclusions and recommendations.
