A presidential candidate Ayachi Zammel has been sentenced by a Tunisian court to six months in prison on Wednesday, September 25, on charges of falsifying documents. With this, it makes it the second prison sentence against him in a week.

The sentencing, which comes just days before the presidential election, highlights rising tensions ahead of the election, amid opposition and civil society groups' fears of a rigged election aimed at keeping President Kais Saied in power.

Zammel was sentenced to 20 months in prison last week on charges of falsifying popular endorsements.

What a bad political candidate already has faced his first sentence and now he added another falsified documents that led him to imprisonment. It must be, at least, 3 years.
