Young Man Found Dead in Sned: Main Suspect Who Alerted Police Arrested Along with Two Accomplices

The General Directorate of National Security reported today that, following a phone call received by a patrol from the Sned police station in the Gafsa governorate reporting the discovery of a young man’s body behind the town’s high school, an investigation was immediately launched.

According to the same source, the victim had head wounds and was found bound at both legs and hands.

After a series of in-depth investigations on the ground, suspicions quickly fell on the individual who had initially alerted the police to the discovery. He was arrested in record time, in coordination with the public prosecutor.

During questioning at the police station, it emerged that the suspect, along with an accomplice, had violently hit the victim in the head with a stone following a fight. They then reportedly tied the victim with plastic restraints and dumped the body behind the high school in Sned. The main suspect then contacted law enforcement, seemingly in an attempt to divert suspicion and mislead the justice system.

After consulting the investigating judge in charge of the case, a pre-trial detention order was issued against the suspects, and the investigation is ongoing.
