The Council of the Independent High Authority for Audiovisual Communication (HAICA) decided at the ending of a meeting held today to inflict a fine of 20,000 dinars on Tunisian television for violation of the law banning the media from disseminating “any message having the character of electoral propaganda” during electoral silence.
The breach lies in the dissemination of the declaration of the President of the Republic Kais Saied on the day of the referendum, after the fulfilment of his electoral duty. The Head of State discussed during this declaration the different choices that have been cited in the new Constitution. And this, during the exceptional coverage of the July 25 referendum.
