The Tunisian League for Human Rights (LTDH) has launched a fervent plea, urging the authorities to abandon legal proceedings against two lawyers who have been defending political detainees in Tunisia. This move was prompted by statements made by the lawyers concerning the “conspiracy against state security” case. These arrests triggered both local and international outrage and condemnation. The individuals detained were primarily associated with the National Salvation Front and its leading faction, the Ennahdha movement. They face charges, among other things, of involvement in what has been referred to as the “conspiracy against state security” case.
