Tunisian police have arrested Ahmed Souab, a prominent lawyer and fierce critic of the country’s president.
Souab is among the lawyers acting for opposition leaders who received heavy prison sentences on Saturday on charges of conspiring.
The arrest comes amid growing tensions in Tunisia, with opposition leaders and critics speaking out against the government’s actions.
Souab’s arrest has sparked concerns about the state of democracy and human rights in the country.
The development is the latest in a series of crackdowns on dissent in Tunisia, with many questioning the government’s commitment to upholding the rule of law and protecting individual freedoms.
