Detainees' Families Protest Second Hearing In 'Conspiracy Against State Security' Case In Tunis

A general view of the court of First Instance in Tunis, Tunisia, on April 11, 2025, shows a protest organized by human rights activists, civil society organizations, and relatives and families of detained political opposition figures. The protest supports the detainees in the so-called ''conspiracy against state security'' case during the second remote hearing of the court. The demonstrators demand a public trial and reject the remote trial previously decided by the court. They also protest against what they consider an unfair and invalid trial, calling for the release of the detainees and accusing the Tunisian president, Kais Saied, of using the judiciary to persecute those who reject his policies. In this context, professor and political opposition figure Jawhar Ben Mbarek, one of the most prominent detainees, is on hunger strike since March 30 in protest at his continued arbitrary detention. Since February, Tunisia sees a wave of arrests of journalists, activists, judges, businessmen, and politicians, including the leader of the Ennahda party, Rached Ghannouchi, who is detained since April 2023.
