Rights group slam trial of politicians in Tunisia
A number of rights groups in Tunisia have condemned the “dangerous and deviant” trial of opposition figures in the conspiracy case, as reported by Middle East Monitor on April 11th.
The outage came after a court decided to hold the trial session “remotely”, without the defendants, despite their categorical rejection of being tried in absentia.
Rights groups have warned that the trial is a blatant violation of rights and a coup against what remains of judicial independence in Tunisia.
