Tunisia

The sentence of Imed Dghij, head of the Islamist militia League for the Protection of the Revolution (LPR), was reduced to three months from 14. A group devoted to “saving Tunisians stranded abroad” said at least 1,900 Tunisians have been killed fighting in Syria, where Tunisians make up the largest foreign fighter group, followed by Libyans. He said Tunisians have joined the ranks of both the Al Nusrah Front and the Islamic State of Iraq and the Sham. President Marzouki has offered amnesty for militants “without blood on their hands”; Algeria and Saudi Arabia have also offered amnesty to returning jihadists. Critics of the plan noted that Tunisia does not keep a database of fighters who have gone to Syria. Tunisian officials said Marzouki’s plan is not yet enacted and would not apply to members of al Qaeda or Ansar al Sharia.
