Tunisian judges participated in a protest in front of the Court of First Instance building in Tunis on Thursday on the occasion of the one-year anniversary of the dismissal of 57 judges. The protesters raised slogans rejecting what they considered interference by the executive authority in the work of the judiciary.
The vigil comes a year after 57 judges were dismissed by Tunisian President Kais Saied after accusing them of corruption and protecting "terrorists" It also comes to protest the authority's refusal to implement rulings issued by the Administrative Court in August 2022 in favor of 49 judges.
