Note: This article had a previous AfD at WP:Articles_for_deletion/Sahraeean. These are the sources provided from that AfD:, , , and one other that is the same copy as the Daily Star article.

The subject does not meet WP:PROF, and especially not in a verifiable way. This article has needed more citations for 10 years, and none have come along. Most of the information here is WP:OR.
