Victor Dupont, a 27-year-old French doctoral student, was arrested in Tunis on October 19 for allegedly threatening state security. His detention follows a pattern of arrests under President Kaïs Saïed's regime, which has seen over a hundred Tunisians imprisoned since July 2021. Dupont's case has drawn attention as he is the first non-binary French citizen to face military justice in Tunisia. His friends, who were with him at the time of his arrest, were also detained but later released. The situation raises concerns about the treatment of foreign nationals and the implications of Tunisia's political climate.
