Tunisian Journalists Condemn Human Rights Association Suspension
Tunisian authorities have ordered the suspension of the Nobel Peace Prize-winning rights group LTDH. Numerous NGOs have denounced these moves as attempts at intimidation through bureaucracy amid shrinking civil space in Tunisia. The organization reported it has not yet received official notification but has received information regarding the freeze of its operations. The organization played a role in the 2014 political decree following the revolution. The organization reported receiving information regarding the freeze on Friday, though formal government notification is still pending. The Ministry of Justice halted a memorandum of understanding that previously allowed the association to visit prisons. This move is viewed as a potential precursor to a permanent freeze on the group's operations.
