The National Committee for the Defense of the Independence of the Judiciary in Tunisia called on the authorities in the country to respect the judiciary in practice and practice. Committee member Judge Afif al-Jaidi confirmed that the dismissed judges are committed to the justice of their case a full year after the decision to dismiss 57 judges by presidential order.
In early June last year, Tunisian President Kais Saied issued a presidential order dismissing 57 judges from their duties on charges including changing the course of cases and obstructing investigations into terrorism.
