Tunisian Journalists: ‘Murderer Bin Salman Is not Welcome in Tunisia’

Tunisian activists have called for holding protests during Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman’s upcoming visit to the north African country over the killing of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi, Press TV reported.

On Thursday, bin Salman began a tour of several Arab states, starting with the United Arab Emirates, in his first trip abroad since the killing of Khashoggi in the Saudi consulate in Turkey’s city of Istanbul last month, which is blamed on him and battered his image abroad.

 Tunisian activists on Friday called for demonstrations in front of the presidential palace in Carthage during the trip on Tuesday.

 The blood of Khashoggi has not dried yet, the murderer bin Salman is not welcome in Tunisia,” said Neji Bghouri, the president of the journalists’ syndicate.

Journalists, bloggers and human rights activists are also trying to mount a legal challenge to stop the visit.

They tasked a group of 50 lawyers to file a complaint with the Tunisian courts to oppose the visit, lawyer Nizar Boujlel said.

The Tunisian presidency, however, welcomed the visit.
