Mourners clash with police after Nizar Issaoui, 35, dies in protest at ‘terrorism’ accusation over banana prices complaint
A professional footballer in Tunisia has died after setting himself alight earlier this week in what he called a protest against the “police state” ruling the country, his brother said.
Nizar Issaoui, 35, sustained third-degree burns from his action in the village of Haffouz in the central region of Kairouan, his brother Ryad said.
