The Criminal Chamber, associated with terrorism cases, in the Tunisian Primary Court otried three Tunisian youth suspected to seeking to travel to Syria, and fight in the ranks of the terrorist Islamic State group. The suspects were convinced by a Salafi cleric to travel to Syria and fight in the ranks of the terrorist organization ISIS. The defendants denied the charges attributed to them in spite of the judge confronted them thàt they hàve confessed their intention to join ISIS in the investigation.

Tunisia has become a breeding ground for ISIS fighters, spawning twisted killers behind attacks across Europe including the Berlin and Nice lorry massacres.
