The announcement comes a day after Nabil Karoui and his brother were reportedly arrested in Algeria.
Tunisia has issued an arrest warrant for former presidential candidate Nabil Karoui and his brother, according to authorities, a day after reports that they were detained in neighbouring Algeria. Karoui was runner-up in Tunisia’s 2019 presidential election, a poll won by Kais Saied, who in July this year suspended parliament and granted himself sweeping presidential powers. Local media reported on Monday that the Qalb Tounes party chief and his brother, MP Ghazi Karoui, were taken into custody in Algeria.More Related News
