1) In a fascinating turn of events Tunisian #Islamist party #Nahdha & reborn former regime party #FreeDestour party led by #AbirMoussi r both supporting Security Forces in what they consider attacks (some paint was thrown & middle fingers raised by peaceful protesters) on police
2) who were in full riot gear, preventing protesters from reaching the Ministry of Interior during a march against police violence & Tunisia’s harsh drug law 52 (21 yr old killed with a tear gas canister to the head & 2 young men for 30years for smoking hash in an empty stadium)
3) Some speculate orders for police to stand still in formation & not attack protesters w/customary level of violence came frm PM Mechichi (acting Minister of Interior)
We barely had enough time to process that the police were relatively restrained when syndicates began reacting
