"It is now one year since Ben Ali left power. One year on, however, we see that the practices commonly used under the old regime are still in place. We note that members of the public are still regularly subjected to many acts of violence and brutal practices on the part of the security forces, in breach of Tunisia's international human rights undertakings. The event that took place at Tunis-Carthage airport on 13 November is just one example. Zakaria Bouguira, a student, witnessed acts of violence committed by law enforcement officers against a group of young Moroccans. He filmed the scene with his mobile phone so he could broadcast it. A security guard immediately stopped him filming and he was brutally beaten. A complaint has been filed. I therefore call on the authorities to engage in a process of reform of the security sector (including the police and the judicial system), to guarantee independence of the judiciary and to guarantee freedom and independence of the press and the media. I believe that for these reforms to be accepted by the population, it must involve civil society bodies working in this area as fully as possible."@en1
