Tunis Court Reviews Suspension Of Tunisian League For Human Rights Activities

Demonstrators display a large banner in Arabic reading, ''Our history will not be halted, and our message does not freeze,'' while making the victory sign during a solidarity rally outside the Court of First Instance in Tunis, Tunisia, on May 6, 2026. The rally brings together dozens of human rights organizations, civil society groups, and opposition parties. The demonstration addresses the judiciary's decision to suspend the activities of the Tunisian League for Human Rights (LTDH) as the court reviews the measure. The LTDH's activities were suspended for one month by the Tunisian judiciary on April 24, with authorities stating the organization exceeded the legal deadline for holding its ordinary general assembly. Founded in 1976, the Tunisian League for Human Rights (LTDH) is one of the oldest human rights organizations in the Arab world and a recipient of the 2015 Nobel Peace Prize.
