News from Al-Madinah: For the third day in a row, the clashes resumed on Sunday night in the Al-Tadamon Al-Shaabi neighbourhood west of the Tunisian capital.
Some young males blocked off the main thoroughfare, set tyres on fire, dumped containers, and hurled rocks at the security personnel.
The police responded by launching tear gas and pursuing the protesters in the sub -neighborhoods of the region.
The head of the media office in the Tunisian Ministry of Interior, Fakr Bouzghaya, said in a statement to the “Al -Arabiya” and “Al -Hadath” channel that a number of infiltrators participated in the protests in the Al -Tadamun neighborhood and the starting neighborhood for political purposes and to carry out dislocation and theft operations.
Bozghaya stated that a number of persons who wanted to disperse the demonstrators had taken money.
After the clashes, quiet eventually returned to the region, albeit a cautious calm. The security personnel stayed on the main route, which gradually resumed movement.
Conflicts started last Friday during Malik Al-(24 Sulaimi’s years old) burial. He passed away from a neck injury he sustained in late August.
The Ministry of Interior disputes protesters’ claims that Al-death Sulaimi’s was the result of police negligence.
Malik Al-Sulaimi and his friends were routinely apprehended by a patrol, but Malik Al-Sulaimi escaped, leaped from a high wall, and plummeted, according to Fakir Bouziga.
Bozghaya added in a radio interview that “all the necessary precautions were taken, consulting the Public Prosecution, and interfering to move the young man quickly to the hospital.
” This comes while the Tunisian capital witnessed protests on the policies of the country’s president, Qais Saeed, and what the demonstrators described as the high cost of living and the lack of basic materials in the country that suffers from a severe economic crisis.
