The criminal reconciliation law and the chapter on the judicial function included in the 2022 constitution are a mere translation of the President of the Republic's unilateral vision of justice, as they were not subject to the participatory principle, according to the speakers in this session.

The latter challenge the authoritarian nature of these two texts, referring to the first as "a criminal reconciliation law that violates the principles of accountability, revelation of the truth and non-recurrence," and to the second as "a constitution that nullifies all safeguards.

This session of "On the brink of Justice" examines the extent to which the shift from an authority to a function guarantees the independence of judges from the authority employing them, and the extent to which such legislation safeguards the principles of a fair and swift judiciary.

On the brink of Justice

Through the "On the brink of Justice" podcast, consisting of six episodes, we delve into the facts and realities of the judicial system and its relationship with the citizens and the executive branch. From there, we examine the length of litigation, infrastructure, the Code of Criminal Procedure, and the relationship between judges and law enforcement. The podcast will also address the recent dismissals of certain judges and the publication of new texts covering the functioning of the judiciary, such as the new constitution in its fifth chapter, which deals with the judicial function and the law on criminal reconciliation.

Latest episodes

Unsubstantiated dismissals

The dismissal of 57 judges has sparked a public outcry and backlash in the country. The decision was deemed unfair and based on misleading security reports. In this session, we point fingers at Presidential Decree No. 2022-516, as we examine its background and details.

Unintended justice

In the fourth episode of the "On the brink of Justice" podcast, we point the finger at the relationship between judges and law enforcement officers. In this session, we try to better understand this relationship which raises questions about whether it is a utilitarian one.

Code of criminal procedure, condemning freedom to the guillotine

Tunisia's criminal justice system has been under heavy criticism, as it is often accused of empowering the executive, denying citizens access to fair trials that guarantee their rights and dignity, and presuming their innocence until proven guilty.
