Protests Erupt Over Detention Of Former Judge Ahmed Souab In Tunis

Demonstrators hold up a banner featuring the image of Ahmed Souab, with the Arabic inscription ''Release Ahmed Souab,'' as well as another banner reading in Arabic ''Tunisia: closed borders,'' during a demonstration organized by the family of lawyer and former judge Ahmed Souab, alongside hundreds of civil society activists, representatives of national and human rights organizations, and journalists in Tunis, Tunisia, on April 25, 2025, to protest the detention of Ahmed Souab and to express their support for him. Demonstrators chant iconic slogans from the Tunisian revolution, including ''Labor, Liberty, and Dignity for All,'' while also calling for the fall of President Kais Saied's regime. Ahmed Souab is recently arrested by the police after making critical remarks to the press about the harsh sentences handed down in the so-called ''conspiracy against state security'' case. A detention warrant is issued against him on terrorism charges. Ahmed Souab is part of the legal team representing prominent political figures in the case, who are sentenced in the first instance to prison terms ranging from 13 to 66 years.
