Speaker of the House of People’s Representatives (HPR) Mohamed Ennaceur said, Tuesday, amendments will be made to the draft law banning attacks on armed forces. 

“The bill will be amended to ensure compliance with the respect for rights and fundamental freedoms enshrined in the new constitution,” Mr. Ennaceur stated at a meeting with a delegation of the International Federation for Human Rights (FIDH) headed by Kamel Lahidji.

Lahidji, who was quoted in a press release of the HPR, commended the “democratic transition process which enshrines the respect for human rights, in accordance with the objectives of the Revolution of Freedom and Dignity.”

The draft law No. 25/2015 banning attacks on armed forces has sparked a great controversy among civil society organisations in Tunisia.
