Long claimed, the list of victims of the 2011 revolution includes the names of 129 dead and 534 injured.

Three times less than the list published by the first committee.

The victims oscillate between satisfaction and regret at not seeing progress in justice.

Injured the day before Ben Ali's departure, Omar Idoudi was impatiently awaiting the list.

A list where, he checked, his name appears: “

 Yes, of course, injured number 325

.

"

This publication in the official journal should be accompanied by compensation and support.

 We have the right to go to the military hospital, free of charge, for life.

I am going to have an operation soon, I still have nails in my right hand.

 "

The granting of compensation on the basis of an independent list of judicial work risks weakening the search for the truth, believes Sofyane Farhani.

Spokesman for the association of families of victims, he lost his brother in the Tunisian revolution.

Why the list?

To honor who?

The victims ?

But there is no reconciliation without justice.

And justice is not done.

There are criminals who are in the streets, who are in the streets and who have benefited from the presidential pardon. 

"

Officially, the list includes the names of those killed or injured between December 17, 2010 and January 14, 2011.
