Missing old friend in Algiers

Hi there, I need to find an old friend of my father based on his name and date of birth. Have been looking for ways to achieve this with little success. Have checked social media, no results.  Are there some search engines or maybe even agencies who could help ? Any advise is appreciated. Person's name is Abdelhafid Laouira and he used to live in Algiers. BR, Yusuf
