The draconian anti-terrorism decisions enforced by the Tunisian government last week, following the killing of 14 soldiers on the Chaambi Mount, have fuelled an already polarised public opinion and civil society. Ennahdha issued a communique in Arabic, on 23 July, in which it re-affirmed its support for combatting terrorism “within a national unity framework”. In addition, it called for re-opening the mosques that were closed down and speeding up the process of placing them under state control. Ennahdha’s communique in English, however, did not mention the closure of mosques and Islamist-related associations but rather reiterated Ennahdha’s support for combatting terrorism. On the other hand, the Tunisian Observatory for the Independence of the Judiciary took a nuanced position. It expressed its concern with regard to the interference of the executive with the powers of the judiciary and breaches to individual liberties.
