Sonia Dhammani, a fierce critic of President Cass Side, has criticized him for practices against refugees and migrants.
Tunisian court sentenced Sonia Dhammani to a prominent lawyer and President Cass Said’s famous critic, two years in jail
After the judge refused to postpone the session on Monday, Dhammani’s lawyers retreated from the trial, claiming that Dhamani was being tried twice for the same Act.
The court, criticizing the practices against refugees and migrants in Deputy Sahara Africa, sentenced Dhammani for a statement.
Advocate Basem Tripi stated that the decision was “a serious injustice”.
“Whatever is happening is a distance. Sonia is being tried twice for a single statement,” advocate Sami Ben Gazi said, another lawyer of the zealous person.
Dhamani was arrested after commenting during a television appearance last year, which questioned the government’s stand on unspecified African refugees and migrants in Tunisia.
The case was brought under the country’s controversial cyber crime law, decree 54, which has been widely condemned by international and local rights groups.
Most opposition leaders, some journalists and critics of critics have been imprisoned as Saiy has confiscated control over the powers, dissolved the elected Parliament, and decides by decree in 2021 – the opposition has described as a coup.
The side dismisses the allegations and says that his actions are legal and its purpose is to end chaos and large -scale corruption.
Human rights groups and activists say Saied has converted Tunisia into an open air and is using the judiciary and police to target his political opponents.
Saed rejects these allegations, saying that he would not be a dictator and will try to justify everyone equally accountable regardless of his position or name.
Earlier this year, the country conducted a collective test, in which dozens of defendants were sentenced to 66 years of jail. Critics described the test as politically motivated and baseless.
The defendants faced allegations, including “conspiracy against state security” and “a terrorist group related”.
One of the targeted people was the largest party, Annahada, such as the leader and former president of Parliament, Ghanochi, former Prime Minister Hichham Mechichi and former Justice Minister Noordeadine Bhairi.
Tunisia was observed as the only democratic success of the 2011 “Arab Spring” revolutions, with a strong political involvement between his public and civil society members, who often took to airways and streets to hear their voice.
The years after the revolution, which overthrew the Autocrat Zeen El Abidin Ben Ali, saw the development of a healthy political system, in which several elections were declared independent and fair by international supervisors.
But strengthening a weak economy and anti-democratic forces led to a push, which was removed from the government’s dismissal and disintegration of Parliament.
