Tunisia Heatwave Escalates Prison Crisis
Prisons in Tunisia are facing harsh conditions due to a severe heatwave that exceeded 49 degrees Celsius, along with overcrowding and a lack of proper health and care facilities. These circumstances have led to a deterioration in prisoners' health, with reports of deaths resulting from heart attacks and the difficult imprisonment conditions, especially during the summer months. Human rights organizations are calling for urgent measures to alleviate overcrowding, including the release of some prisoners and the expansion of alternative sanctions, with the aim of improving detention conditions and safeguarding the rights of detainees amid rising temperatures and worsening health conditions.
