Tunisian presidential candidate Ayachi Zammel was sentenced Sunday to six months of prison for fake certificates. His lawyer condemned the ruling as an intentional act in an attempt to sabotage his client's campaign and described the proceedings as unfair. This is after an initial sentence of 20 months was handed for falsifying documents of endorsements that were supposed to be collected to put him into candidacy. He had been arrested earlier in September over allegations of forging signatures, released, and then rearrested on similar charges.
It is also before the October 6 election, in which he was declared as one of the remaining candidates to be challenging the incumbent, President Kaïs Saïed, amid the growing political tension with opposition claims of electoral manipulation.
