The French judiciary refused to extradite Halima Ben Ali, the youngest daughter of the ousted President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali, to Tunisia, according to a decision issued Wednesday by the Paris Court of Appeal specialized in these matters.
During the pleadings regarding the extradition request, her lawyers, Samia Maktouf, said that sending her client to Tunisia was tantamount to a "death sentence." The Tunisian authorities accuse Halima Ben Ali of financial violations. She was arrested in the fall of 2025 at an airport in Paris.
