Personal life

In May 2020, El Melali was seen masturbating in the courtyard of his block of flats while looking at a woman who lives on the ground floor. He was arrested and charged by French police with public masturbation.[3] He later apologized for his behavior, as he wrote: "In the past few days, I've lived through very hard and stressful period, whether mentally or physically, I've been criticized and toughly judged. I understand how hard it was for the people who have received the news, because no one can forgive this kind of behavior".[4]
