Speaking on Attessia TV, the president of the National Union of Judicial Officers and Executives, Hattab Ben Othman, maintained that the surveillance cameras installed at this tribunal are not operating.

“Since a month we have noticed that these cameras no longer work, and the agents responsible for securing the court have informed the Ministry of Justice, which has not reacted,” he explained.

The Judicial Pole had to retrieve the elements of the surveillance cameras set up at the level of the buildings nearby.

Two tires were set on fire in front of the central courthouse door, and petrol spilt on the stairs leading to the main entrance was discovered.
