Tunisia grants pardon to students in drug cases
The Tunisian President, Kais Saied, has issued a pardon covering a number of students and minors imprisoned for possession and consumption of drugs, who were not involved in drug distribution crimes, just before the start of the new academic and university year on September 15. The aim of the pardon is to enable these young people to return immediately to their studies and to protect them from mixing with criminals within prisons, amid escalating campaigns to combat the spread of drugs among youth and educational institutions. Statistics indicate that drug-related cases account for about one-third of judicial files in Tunisian prisons, with a drug use rate of 9.2% among youth in 2025. The authorities are focused on strengthening prevention and treatment efforts alongside security operations.
