Lawyer Samir Dilou, a former Islamist deputy, said on Saturday June 25, 2022, in a brief Facebook post, that the former head of government, Hamadi Jebali was urgently admitted to the intensive care unit at Habib Thameur hospital.
Samir Dilou specifies that Hamadi Jebali had refused to take the drugs brought back by his family to the place where he was detained.
The former tenant of the Kasbah was arrested on Thursday at the Khezama-Est delegation at the Bora Bora roundabout in Sousse by a security brigade. His phone and that of his wife were seized. He is suspected of money laundering linked to the charity Namaa Tounes, according to details from the Ministry of the Interior.
His defense committee cried foul on Saturday, denouncing a detention described as illegal. Hamadi Jebali went on a wild hunger strike in protest. The defense committee said it would hold the authorities responsible for any physical harm his hunger strike may cause.
