“The court in Tunis sentenced Ayachi Zammel to 12 years in prison in four cases related to voter endorsements,” Zammel’s attorney, Abdessater Messoudi told AFP.

Messoudi said Zammel “remains a candidate in the election” on Sunday.

Former lawmaker Zammel heads a small liberal party, and had been one of just two candidates approved by Tunisia’s electoral authority ISIE to challenge President Kais Saied for the top post.

Ahead of the vote, ISIE had rejected the bids of some 14 other presidential hopefuls.
