Demonstration Calls For Release Of Queer Activist Rania Amdouni In Tunis
Protesters raise placards that read in Arabic, “we queers are against all the retrograde Islamists”, as others raise placards that read in Arabic, “Release all young detainees”, during a protest held on occasion of the appeal trial of the LGBTQI+ and feminist activist Rania Amdouni, outside the court of Tunis in Tunisia on March 17, 2021, to demand her release. Ten days ago, the queer Rania Amdouni, 26-year-old, has been arrested and incarcerated in a women's prison after being sentenced at first instance to six months in jail for insulting police and abuse of morals.
