Tunisia opposition figures get jail terms

Gulf Today

April 20, 2025

TUNIS: A Tunisian court handed downjail sentences of up to 66 years to multiple defendants, including prominent opposition figures, for national security offences, defence lawyers said on Saturday.

- Agence France-Presse

The trial, criticised by rights groups and decried by a defence lawyer as a "masquerade," is of unprecedented scale with around 40 defendants including vocal critics of President Kais Saied.

A prosecutor cited by local media announced sentences ranging from 13 to 66 years for the defendants, accused of "conspiracy against state security" and "belonging to a terrorist group."

However, a list communicated to AFP by several lawyers, and "subject to official confirmation," indicates minimum sentences of 4 years.
