💨 Abstract

A Tunisian court is preparing to rule in a conspiracy case against prominent opposition figures, including politicians, businessmen, and journalists. The trial, described as a farce by lawyers, is seen as a symbol of President Kais Saied's authoritarian rule and a demonstration of his control over the judiciary. Forty individuals are being prosecuted, with more than 20 having fled abroad since being charged.
