Tunisia-Audio:Does Kais Saied possess the constitutional right to ban businessmen from travelling and place them under house arrest?

Following president of the republic Kais Saied’s latest decisions on imposing a travel ban and house arrest of businessmen, Tunisie Numérique has sought to find out whether the current constitution permits the President of the Republic to take such measures.

We, therefore, reached professor of constitutional law Aderrazek Mokhatar who revealed that the issue was governed by the constitution (article 24 relating to the freedom to move within the territory as well as the right to leave it) and by Law no. 197540 of May 14, 1975, reporting to passports and travel documents.
