Travel Ban for 12 Employees of a Public Bank in Tunisia

The public prosecutor's office at the financial judicial pole in Tunisia has imposed a travel ban on 12 current and former employees of a public bank. This decision follows the opening of an investigation related to the issuing of loans by the bank, which are suspected to have been granted without compliance with the applicable legal regulations regarding guarantees and interest rates, according to the local radio station "Mosaïque FM." Previously, the prosecutor authorized officials from the national unit for investigating complex financial crimes to keep in custody the former CEO of the public bank and a businessman operating in the oil packaging sector in connection with this case.
