Clashes between Salafist demonstrators and the student union errupted at the University of Manouba when Salafist students began protesting against a violent incident the previous day. In the incident, two niqab-wearing female students, who had been suspended for six months for participating in earlier riots, broke into the dean's office and damaged files as well as windows. The students claim they were kicked and beaten by the dean. The dean denies these accusations, and the case is under investigation. Five were injured and three were hospitalized in the resulting student clashes until police arrived to restore calm. |
