Amnesty urges Ghannouchi release
Amnesty International has called for the immediate release of Rached Ghannouchi, the former Speaker of the Tunisian Parliament and leader of the Ennahda Movement. It considers his detention arbitrary and in violation of legal procedures. Ghannouchi, who is 84 years old and has been detained since April 2023, faces over 12 politically motivated cases, resulting in cumulative prison sentences totaling 107 years, in addition to a life sentence. The organization has expressed concern about his health, especially given his Parkinson’s disease, noting that he has been transported to the hospital several times. It also highlighted the complete deprivation of his communication and consultation rights and described these as examples of the systematic repression taking place in Tunisia following President Kais Saeed’s consolidation of power.
