He is a hostile witness, willing to testify against the Corsican mafia group which is led by a fellow inmate, César Luciani (Niels Arestrup). Luciani, having no direct access to his target, enrolls the movies lead character, Malik El Djebani, to kill Reyeb. Though the character is killed early on, he appears throughout most of the film as a manifestation of Malik's conscience.
