A Tunisian court decides to keep an actor and a director on parole and postpone their trial

The criminal circuit of the Tunisian Primary Court decided, on Tuesday, November 10, 2026, to keep a television actor and television director who is the sister of a TV channel owner in custody, with their trial postponed. The court has set a date for a new hearing to continue the case file before it.

The Judicial Circuit decided to postpone the hearing of the case to a hearing on 26 November, in order to complete the necessary judicial proceedings in the case of the persons concerned after their appearance before the Primary Court in the capital city of Tunisia to pursue the procedural course of the case.

The Public Prosecutor's Office had earlier authorized the Social Protection Sub-Department to refer the TV actor and TV director to its presence for their reasoning and investigation of the allegations against them before they were referred to court.

The judicial course of the file included the undertaking by the Social Protection Sub-Department of initial investigations in accordance with the instructions of the Public Prosecutor's Office, before they decided to refer them to the Trial Chamber of the Primary Court of Bette in their legal status and determine the course of trial.

This court decision confirms that the persons concerned will continue to be tracked when released until the next hearing scheduled for November 26 to consider the origin and determination of the charges against them.
