Tunisian police crackdown on opposition party.
Tunisian police have detained opposition leader Rached Ghannouchi and raided the headquarters of his Ennahda party. Ghannouchi has emerged as one of the biggest critics of President Kais Saied since the leader shut down parliament. The police detained Ghannouchi for questioning and searched his house on the orders of the public prosecutor investigating “inciting statements”. Ghannouchi has faced repeated rounds of judicial questioning over the past year on charges relating to Ennahda’s finances and allegations it enabled Tunisians to leave the North African country and join ISIL (ISIS) as well as other armed groups after longtime ruler Zine El Abidine Ben Ali was removed from power in 2011.
