Tunisian journalist Mohamed Yousfi arrested by court order

Mohamed Yousfi, a journalist who runs the investigative platform Al-Qatiba and frequently challenges President Kais Saied, was taken into custody on Friday. The arrest occurred near Radio Express FM, with authorities accusing him of money laundering and illicit enrichment. The National Syndicate of Tunisian Journalists (SNJT) condemned the move as an assault on the freedom of the press, noting that it fits into a wider pattern of pressure against activists, legal professionals, and media members that has intensified since the President dissolved parliament in 2021.
