Lawyer and political activist Imed Ben Halima stated to Tunisie Numérique during the Departure Set-in third edition that this rally embodies citizens demands to establish a constitutional court and alter the electoral law that he deemed as a mockery and to amend the system of government. Ben Halima said that it’s unreasonable that the prime minister enjoys more powers than the elected president.

He pointed out this measure is against the will of the people and the democratic practice, emphasising that this move does not befall within the request for chaos either does it call for the dissolution of Parliament.

He deemed the interests of the Tunisian people today to be imperilled and at jeopardy, particularly as Ghannouchi abuses his parliamentary position to pass political positions faithful to certain parties.

Our speaker further validated that their movement is legitimate and upholds the laws, pointing out and this date has been chosen for its symbolism.

He said that the Sit in will be implemented according to a timetable that will correspond with the government’s decision to lift the targeted lockdown.

He finally stressed that this movement will include all those who are persuaded of the necessity to shift in the framework of respecting the Tunisian constitution.
