Tunisian journalist Khaoula Boukrim has been sentenced to four years in prison, prompting condemnation from the National Union of Tunisian Journalists (SNJT). The SNJT strongly criticized the continued use of Decree-Law 54 as the basis for judicial proceedings against journalists. The union warns this sentencing represents a serious threat to press freedom in Tunisia and could lead to increased self-censorship among journalists. Decree-Law 54, often criticized for its restrictive nature, concerns offenses related to information and communication technologies. The SNJT is demanding the annulment of Boukrim’s sentence and expressing concern over the escalating pressure on media professionals. This case highlights ongoing challenges to freedom of expression in the country. Kapitalis first reported the news.
