Abir Moussi Sues Allies of Tunisia’s Muslim Brotherhood – Suspicion of Terrorism suspects besiege extremist networks
Complaints filed by the Free Destourian Party in Tunisia against a number of leaders loyal to the Brotherhood, on suspicion of joining an organization that includes those involved in terrorist cases.
The head of the party, Abir Moussi, filed complaints against a number of leaders of the National Salvation Front, a Muslim Brotherhood-allied group, in addition to former President Moncef Marzouki.
In a statement issued Tuesday, the party said complaints were filed against Ahmed Najib Chebbi, Ridha Belhaj, Jawher bin Mubarak, Shaimaa Issa from the Salvation Front of the Brotherhood, former president Moncef Marzouki, and all those whose research will be revealed.
The party accuses them of “engaging in an organization that includes among its ranks persons and parties linked to terrorist crimes, creating a meeting place for that organization and collecting donations for its benefit, in accordance with Organic Law No. 26 of 7 August 2015 on combating terrorism and preventing money laundering.”
The party considered that the recognition of the so-called “Salvation Front” and the authorities’ permission to operate despite the ambiguity of its legal character, its assembly of elements involved in terrorist cases, and its presentation by the national and foreign media in the garb of an opposition political component, is part of whitewashing terrorist organizations, hiding the dangerous arms of the Brotherhood in Tunisia, and encouraging the continuation of the subversive Arab Spring system in a new form.
The party held President Kais Saied, his government and the media reshuffle apparatus (Independent High Authority for Audiovisual Communication) fully responsible for “lax in the application of the law, opening the way for the restoration of the forces of darkness and facilitating their infiltration into the political scene, and maligning the Tunisian people, who are aiming to get rid of them and harm the higher interests of the homeland.”
The Front consists of the Ennahdha Movement, Heart of Tunisia Party (Nabil Karoui’s party), the Brotherhood’s Dignity Coalition, the Movement of Tunisia, the Will Party (Moncef Marzouki’s party), and the Hope Party (Najib Chebbi’s party).
These parties, which formed the Salvation Front, were represented in the dissolved parliament on March 30. They are all being pursued on charges of financial corruption scandals, terrorism crimes, money laundering, and theft.
Return cover
It is through this front that the Brothers of Tunisia are trying to return to power and turn the tide on July 25, 2021, which removed a parliament that had been controlled by the terrorist group.
the Salvation Front is led by Ahmed Najib Chebbi; the head of the Hope Party and a left-leaning lawyer; Ennahdha’s historic ally to hide behind.
Since the late President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali’s rule, followers of political affairs have dubbed Naguib Shabi “Naguib Allah,” referring to his membership in the Brotherhood since the 1980s. They were active under the wing of his Progressive Democratic Party, through which he whitewashed out Brotherhood leaders.
Chebbi was a strong ally of the Brotherhood, and his alliance with them has extended since 2005, through the “18 October Alliance,” whereby he revived a political movement that contributed significantly to the normalization of the relationship between the Brotherhood movement and Tunisian society. He fought in their stead against the regime of former Tunisian president Zine El Abidine Ben Ali.
Ennahdha, however, disguised Chaabi after January 14, 2011, and preferred to push Moncef Marzouki to head the Carthage palace, after she fired her electronic flies in an ongoing campaign to belittle his history.
This led Ahmed Najib Chebbi to oppose Ennahdha for a while, before returning after the July 25, 2021, measures announced by President Kais Saied to flirt with the Brotherhood and offer himself an alternative to compensate for its losses.
