Tunisian Human Rights Group Blocked from M'Saken Prison
The Tunisian League for Human Rights branch in Sousse strongly condemned once again the prohibition of its delegation from visiting the M'Saken civil prison. It considered that the requirement to obtain a permit from the Ministry of Justice is not based on the memorandum of understanding governing visits and constitutes a restriction on its oversight work. The statement clarified its firm stance on the right to conduct lawful visits, especially as it has received requests for intervention concerning "urgent" situations inside the prison. This ban occurs within the broader context of freedoms being restricted within detention facilities and the failure to respect the oversight rights of human rights organizations.
