Amnesty International slams Tunisia travel bans
TUNIS — Rights group Amnesty International on Thursday condemned travel bans imposed after Tunisian President Kais Saied dismissed parliament and assumed sweeping powers last month.
His move on July 25, which he said was to prevent the crisis-hit country from collapse, was slammed as "a coup d'etat" by the Islamist-inspired Ennahdha, the main party in Tunisia's latest fractious ruling coalition.
Saied later imposed restrictions on many leading figures in the North African country, with some banned from travelling abroad or put under house arrest without warning.
