The lawyer and columnist Sonia Dahmani, is summoned this Friday, July 11 in front of three different jurisdictions. An unprecedented situation that his lawyer denounces as a procedural aberration.
This Friday, July 11, 2025, Sonia Dahmani, lawyer and columnist, will face three distinct judicial hearings in the same day, two of which are scheduled at the same time and relating to the same case, before two different jurisdictions.
It was his lawyer, Me Sami Ben Ghazi, who alerted to this confusing situation to say the least. In a declaration relayed on social networks, he described this chain as “legally incomprehensible” appearances. According to him, one of the hearings will be held before the criminal chamber of the Tunis court of first instance, while the other – on the same file – is scheduled at the Court of Cassation, in front of the united chambers. A procedural superposition that questions …
“Three audiences in a single day, it is already a rare fact. But when the same case is examined simultaneously by two courts, it becomes legally incomprehensible, “insisted Me Ben Ghazi, denouncing unprecedented judicial pressure exerted against his client.
Already targeted by several procedures, Sonia Dahmani, was sentenced, on June 30, to a sentence of two years in prison by the sixth correctional chamber of the Tunis first instance court.
A conviction is linked to declarations made by Me Dahmani during a media intervention on the situation of sub -Saharan migrants in Tunisia.
