Tunisia: “serious” deterioration in the health condition of political prisoner Jawhar bin Mubarak
Today, Friday, the Defense Authority for Political Detainees in Tunisia said that a “serious” deterioration occurred in the health condition of the leader of the National Salvation Front, Jawhar Ben Mubarak, last night, following he was subjected to a “serious health problem” in his prison in Mornaguia, which was the symptoms of a stroke.
The commission considered that the prison administration’s deliberate procrastination in the health intervention, despite the ringing of the bell to summon the guards for regarding an hour and a half, is “conclusive evidence of the falseness of the administration’s claims that the surveillance cameras installed in the detention rooms of political prisoners were placed to protect them from possible attacks, and to provide them with urgent aid in the event of any health emergency.”
In a statement today, Friday, the authority called on both the General Authority for Prisons and Reform and the Mornaguia prison administration to “carry out the examinations and analyzes required by the health condition of Jawhar Ben Mubarak, and hold them fully responsible for the consequences of any negligence or negligence.”
The Commission stated that “the successive cases of deterioration of the health of unjustly detained political leaders (Rida Belhadj, Essam Chebbi, and Jawhar bin Mubarak) bring to mind the policy of slow death that was adopted before the revolution,” and renewed its call for “the immediate release of all political prisoners unjustly detained on the grounds of their opposition to the existing authority.”
