The Tunisian Administrative Court has allowed prominent candidates Mondher Znaidi and Imed Daimi to participate in the October 6 presidential election, overturning previous disqualifications by the Independent Higher Election Authority. Meanwhile, Tunisian police arrested presidential candidate Ayachi Zammel on charges of falsifying endorsements, raising concerns among rights groups and opposition about potential exclusion of rivals to President Kais Saied. Zammel has been detained for 48 hours. The electoral commission has rejected the court's ruling to reinstate disqualified candidates, intensifying fears of bias towards the incumbent leader.
